Lucas smiled and lightly kissed her cheek. "It's only a matter of time before you are one."
With Melody's talent and abilities, Lucas was certain she would reach the top of her industry—it was only a matter of time. Despite the efforts of some people to hinder her progress, they could not stop Melody's path to fame.
"Are you scared?" Lucas asked.
With only the driver, it was impossible to avoid being photographed by the reporters completely. Melody looked at him, and they exchanged a smile. Since the day she got together with Lucas, she had anticipated their relationship being exposed. However, Melody did not care.
As an actress, she was destined to be different from those who gained fame through their public persona alone. Her work spoke for itself, and she relied solely on her talent.
"It's just that… You're the President of Rivera Group. Are you sure being with me, an actress, won't affect your company's stock price?" asked Melody.
Lucas leaned in for a kiss. "You'll only make Rivera Group's stock rise."
Just when all the reporters thought Lucas and Melody would not get out of the car, the door suddenly opened. The chauffeur got out of his seat, then he opened the door on Lucas' side.
Everyone seemed to act as if rehearsed, each with their own gear, with cannons-like lenses in front of every camera. All just to capture the moment of Lucas and Melody together.
There were so many other news stories waiting for them elsewhere, and they did not want to waste all their time there.
"Oh my god. Is that really Lucas Rivera? This is the first time I've seen the President of Rivera Group in real life. Before this, I only had the chance to see him in the newspaper. I've never gotten this close to him before!"
All the reporters collectively held their breath, afraid to make any noise that might disturb the people getting out of the car. Even though they were not too far away, and if the people got out of the car, they would surely notice them.
The fact that Melody and Lucas showed no fear of their cameras indicated that they did not care about getting exposed at all. It was only after Lucas got out of the car that he went around to Melody's side to open the door for her.

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...
