"I want to ruin her reputation. She deserved it! If it weren't for her, I'd be the one standing by your side now. I'd be Missus Rivera!" Thalia continued.
Lucas, despite his slow comprehension, realized she was referring to the incident in the restroom.
Thalia had previously insisted that Melody pushed her, yet she was, admitting to orchestrating it. Although he felt somewhat shocked, Lucas remained calm and composed.
His other hand, however, slid into his pocket to reach for his phone. "Ah, so it was really you. Didn't you accuse Melody of pushing you before?"
Lucas chuckled, his smile tinged with sarcasm.
Thalia frowned but forced a smile. "Yeah, how could I not blame that woman? She stole you from me, and she pretended to be pitiful with her injured foot! Why? I'm clearly better than her in terms of looks and family background, so why does she get to be the one by your side? She's not worthy!"
The smile on Lucas' face disappeared. "I've never cared about those things. I'm with her because I love her. I never pursued a relationship with you because there were no feelings between us. I've only ever treated you like a sister, and you should've realized that long ago."
Thalia knew that Lucas' feelings for her were fading. She had an inkling that it was because she was not the one he truly wanted. However, when those words truly came out of Lucas' mouth, she became struck with unbearable pain.
She felt a headache coming on, and the wound that had just been bandaged began to throb intensely.
"Ngh… Lucas, you're lying! You clearly liked me. I know you liked me! Is it because your grandmother doesn't like me that you're saying this? I know you've always loved me in your heart. Otherwise, why would you keep flying to Molomia to see me? You clearly cared about me."

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...
