Melody smiled shyly. "Yes, Grandma. We called mainly to reassure you. Lucas said he didn't have much to do at his company this morning, so he's here with me. He'll go to work in the afternoon."
Beatrice, relieved to hear that Lucas was with Melody, said, "No need to rush! Let Lucas spend more time with you. His employees will take care of the work. You two haven't spent time together for quite some time. This is a rare opportunity."
"Um..."
Lucas suddenly took the phone from Melody's hand.
"Grandma, is there a reason for you to be at the company today? Is Grandpa there with you?" asked Lucas.
Melody leaned in to listen as well. Beatrice and Cedric had long since taken a back seat, and they usually did not go to the office unless necessary.
Melody was worried that Beatrice might be running around for her sake. However, Beatrice was reluctant to say anything that would worry them.
"What? Can't I come to the company unless there's something? You two don't need to worry about me since I have the driver take me around," answered Beatrice. "Alright, I have other things to attend to. Goodbye."
Beatrice was always decisive, and she hung up the phone abruptly, regardless of Melody and Lucas' reactions.

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...
