Not to mention trying to figure out where exactly the car had taken them.
"My dad must be so worried right now. Normally, the driver would have taken me home by now, but it's been so long, and I'm still not back... I wonder if my little sister is worried too..."
The thought that she might never see them again overwhelmed Claudia, and tears welled up in her eyes again.
"Don't cry. Have you noticed how much this place looks like the mountain we used to climb when we were kids? Let's stay calm and think of it as an outing. Trust me, we'll make it back home!" comforted Lucas.
Being thrown into this dusty old house was quite the departure from their usual activities. After all, as wealthy individuals, they usually avoided getting their feet dirty.
Lucas's voice was incredibly calm, which helped Claudia regain some composure as well.
"Will we really be okay?"
"Yup! You just gotta trust me!"
Claudia believed in Lucas without a doubt. He would do whatever he said he would do. In fact, she had developed feelings for him long ago. His strength and calmness always made her feel safe whenever he was around. Not to mention, he was so good-looking.
"Let me think about how we can escape."
Claudia's heart immediately jumped to her throat. "Didn't they say that as long as your grandpa and my dad pay us, everything will be fine? Why do we need to escape? Please don't do this. What if we provoke them and end up losing our lives here?"
Lucas could understand Claudia's fears. He had also considered waiting here for their family to rescue them. However, after their conversation, he realized that the kidnappers lacked ethics, and the location they had been taken to was extremely remote.

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...
