Raymond might not even have had the chance to work for the Riveras if it were not for his mother already working there as a cook. Thus, he was very grateful to the Riveras.
He had heard his mother say many times about the difficult times when she was pregnant with him and was abandoned by his father.They might have ended up starving on the streets if Beatrice did not take them in.
…
Lucas drove Melody straight to the hospital, to the same VIP ward, with the same doctor. The doctor was just as surprised. Melody had not even been discharged for a day, yet she was back already.
The doctor frowned when he saw the large swelling on Melody's foot as she lifted it.
"How did this happen? I'm really concerned as to how you're constantly getting injured, Missus Rivera. You really need to take care of your own body. Although you're young, you still need to take good care of yourself."
Lucas frowned deeply when he saw the bruised area on Melody's otherwise pale skin. He had not noticed the extent of Melody's injury in the forest earlier, which explained why he felt her trembling slightly when he carried her.
He thought it was due to the temperature dropping; it was only then he realized she had been enduring pain all along.
"Please help me check whether it's just a sprain or a fracture," Melody urged anxiously.
She wanted to get back to the set as soon as possible. At that critical moment, she could not afford to stay home to recuperate just because she had a fracture.
She had heard that recovering from a bone fracture would take about a hundred days. That meant she would not be able to go to the set for three whole months!
Lucas immediately knew what Melody was worrying about. He was angry with Melody, but more so with himself.
'Why didn't she say anything if she was in so much pain? I can't believe she'd rather endure the pain than tell me! But if I hadn't scolded her earlier in the afternoon, would she have followed me into the forest? No, even if I hadn't scolded her, she would still have followed,' thought Lucas.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Day I Kissed An Older Man
This book is a good book, but it’s too short. I hope it has a part two👍🏾...
This book is getting boring now. I loved Jeremy, Corinne, Sonny and Lucas. The story needs to end. or bring back more of Jeremy, etc....
I haven't skipped any chapter at all. Though the story is good, it keeps going back to base one. I think this has no ending at all and somehow after reading more than 2500 chapters it's kinda tiring already. They have drained all the thrills....
Great writing! I almost cried when Helen hit Melody! So sad! 😭 can’t wait to see how the relationship with her and Lucas develops though. So tired of the repetitive problems with different people....
Yikes my body tenses so much, my moods change as the scenes change. It leaves me wanting to continue reading....
my heart breaks for melody, so many ups and downs, i shed a few tears when lucas walked by melody carrying thalia, and melody stayed quiet while watching them leave. i find myself getting into character as if im one. i dont remember ever feeling like that in any other books. im thankful the 10 chapters/day. waiting for the next 10...
We have updated progress from 7 chapters/day to 10 chapters/day.<3...
i love grandma Beatrice, there needs to me more people like her in the world straight forward and to the point, no beating around the bush and worrying about offending anyone, why pretend to be someone your not....
looking forward to more chapters, The same thing is happening to Melody as what happened to Luna, if Luna was back maybe she would set Lucas straight, can't wait to see how Lucas handles the situations that will arrive. Poor Melody....
ya Lucas pay more attention to Melody lets see what happens waiting for more chapters thanks...
