Thalia had just asked him to prescribe her two bottles of pain relief spray. How could the doctor be so foolish and miss out on earning money for nothing?
The doctor, despite being glared at, remained unruffled. He simply lowered his head to avoid Thalia's gaze and kept saying, "If you're not sick, there's no need to come to the hospital. Although you paid, it's still a waste of medical resources, isn't it? Miss Thalia, you can leave with Mister Lucas now."
Lucas lowered his gaze to hide his expression, but even Thalia could sense the icy chill emanating from him.
"Lucas, don't listen to this doctor's nonsense. My leg clearly hurts, but he insists there's no problem. He's an incompetent quack... Can we go to another hospital?" asked Thalia.
She reached out to grab Lucas' clothes to continue pleading. However, Lucas stepped back, leaving Thalia's hand grasping at thin air.
"Leave now if you're not sick. Don't waste the doctor's time. There are plenty of other people who need medical attention!"
He simply held Melody tightly and left the ward. He did not care whether his words had hurt Thalia.
He held Melody tightly in his arms until she could not help but gasp out in pain, then he realized what he was doing and relaxed his grip a little. "Sorry, I didn't mean to use so much force."
Melody shook her head. "Are you angry?"
"Yeah, shouldn't I be?"
He was angry with Thalia and also with himself for being fooled by her. He knew very well that Thalia was the most sensitive, prone to fussing and jealousy. He would not have been so anxious about her if she had not been injured.
'Thalia was the one who caused all the drama today, yet she had the nerve to pretend to be injured and make me worried!' 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...
