Lucas lost his patience upon hearing Melody's irritated response. "What you and Thalia said that day were completely different. I believe you, in front of so many people, but I'll have to wait until you find evidence before you can give everyone an explanation."
"I only have one thing to say, I did not touch her at all that day!"
To Lucas, Melody's attitude meant that there was no way to communicate.
He did not want to continue arguing with Melody. No matter what he said, it would be meaningless.
Melody felt even worse seeing him persistently speaking up for Thalia.
Neither of them said another word for the rest of the journey.
…
Knowing that they were coming home, Beatrice and Cedric waited at the door in advance. She was overjoyed to see Melody coming back.
However, it seemed there was tension between Lucas and Melody. The expressions on their faces were cold, and they did not even make eye contact.
Beatrice and Cedric looked at each other, and it seemed that they had to tell Lucas and Melody what Thalia had done as soon as possible. Otherwise, the misunderstanding between them would not come to an end.
"Welcome back! How was the traffic?"
Melody forced a smile and said, "Eh, it was alright, Grandma."
"Good to hear." Beatrice helped Melody inside and said to Lucas behind Melody, "I asked Lucas to bring you back today because there is something I have to tell you.
"It is an important matter, so both of you have to be here. Had it not been important, I wouldn't have asked you to return, you see."
Melody did not know what she was going to say. "Grandma, even if you didn't have Lucas take me home today, I'd still make time to come back."

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...
