While watching Melody happily enjoy the chicken soup, Beatrice could not help but advise again. "Melody, why don't you come back home with me? I can't bear to see you living alone here, especially in such a small dormitory. You have to rely on your friends to buy food for you every day. It's not as convenient as having Lynette prepare meals for you at home, where you can have whatever you want..."
Melody paused, then she looked up and smiled. "Grandma, it's fine, really. I find it convenient here."
In fact, the dormitory provided by the production crew was not small at all. It had three bedrooms, a living room, two bathrooms, and a kitchen. Melody did not really need such a large space, but compared to the Riveras' mansion, it was significantly smaller.
Thus, it was understandable that Beatrice looked down on the place. It just did not sit right with her; seeing Melody living in such a small room, she felt it was beneath her.
Beatrice knew Melody would not agree. Her eyes were filled with disappointment.
"Melody, be honest with me. Is there something going on between you and Lucas? I know you're both grown-ups now, and there are many things you may not want to tell us. But, Melody, no matter how old you get, we'll always worry about you. Even if you don't tell me, I'll still overthink. So it's better to just come clean with me."
Melody hesitated, unsure how to broach the subject. After a long while, she gathered her courage and asked Beatrice, "Grandma, have you ever considered that perhaps Miss Thalia might be more suitable to be your granddaughter-in-law than me?"
Beatrice's expression changed instantly. "Melody, where is this coming from? Why would you suddenly think like that?"

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...
