Thalia and Lucas had known each other for a long time, but since Thalia had mostly been in Molomia, they did not spend much time together.
The only difference was that Thalia always showed weakness in front of Lucas, always claiming how much she needed him.
Unlike Melody, Melody had a stronger personality. She had been forced to develop independence since she was a child. She would never ask for help from others if she could solve it by herself.
It was the same, even with Lucas.
Seeing Melody's thoughtful look, Beatrice nodded with relief. "It seems you're also aware of the differences between you, right?
"You know, I don't think your personality is bad. I prefer you because of your personality. After all, one should always be self-reliant to gain a foothold in this world, no matter their gender, no matter who's supporting them. You have done a good job at this.
"But in front of Lucas, you can be a little more vulnerable. I don't want you to learn those despicable tricks, but I have to remind you that Lucas and you are husband and wife.
"He's your legal husband, and sometimes, you don't need to act tough around him. There are many problems that need to be solved by couples together.
"It's not a weakness for you to show vulnerability in front of him; you're just relying on him appropriately.
"You have to give him this kind of trust, to make him feel that he can be relied on by you and that you need him, instead of being cold and transactional like two business partners. I don't want you two to be like this.
"Of course, what I am telling you today is just to hope that you two can live a better life. I like you as my granddaughter-in-law very much, and I hope you can be our family’s granddaughter-in-law forever."

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...
