"No, no, it's not like that..." Wendy's mouth twitched a couple of times. "It's a misunderstanding. You must've misunderstood! Maybe Melody said something in the heat of the moment, but don't take it seriously! I am her sister, you know, and it's normal for sisters to have occasional disagreements."
Melody had long seen through Wendy's intentions. Unfortunately for her, while Wendy was interested in Lucas, he was not interested in her.
'We occasionally have disagreements as sisters?' thought Melody incredulously.
In the past, if they fought over a toy, Helen would not even ask and just let Melody give in to Wendy. Over the years, Melody had gotten used to it, but unfortunately for Wendy, Lucas was a living person and she would never again hand over her beloved to someone just because Wendy wanted it.
"Are you really dumb or just pretending?" Lucas spoke coldly, his tall stature towering over her, causing Wendy to involuntarily take a few steps back as she looked at him.
"Mister Lucas, what do you mean by that? I haven't provoked you, so there's no need for you to insult me," Wendy retorted.
"Miss Wendy, perhaps you should ask your conscience whether or not you feel guilty for saying these things. I'm not a fool either. Do you think I'd believe Melody's words or yours?" Lucas replied sternly.
After saying that, he did not want to waste his time with Wendy any longer. He took Melody's hand and walked out of the room.
"Be a good girl and stay away from people like her in the future," he instructed Melody before they left the room.
Wendy clenched her fists in anger when she heard that. 'Who do they think they are? How dare they flaunt themselves in front of me? What did he mean by people like me?'
Melody, sensing Lucas' displeasure, cuddled up to his arm and swayed back and forth, as if cajoling him.

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...
