As Melody spoke, she could not help but feel a surge of anger, feeling deeply unjust on Helen's behalf. She had hoped that after leaving, the Sanders would be able to live peacefully. However, things did not turn out as expected, and Helen was not living well either.
Feeling a bit panicked under Melody's interrogation, Wendy tightened her grip on her phone in her bag. This situation was far from what she had anticipated.
"W—Who said I haven't visited her? What do you know? I've been taking care of her all these days, you know? This is your first time here, so of course you wouldn't understand the intricacies. We consulted other doctors who said that stroke patients need rest, and here is the best place for that!" Wendy retorted defensively.
"Huh, if you're here every day taking care of her, then do you know where the caregivers are?" Melody asked casually, baiting Wendy.
"Where could they be? Of course, they're in her room with us. We even hired a caregiver who works all day specifically for her," replied Wendy, taking the bait.
"Lies! There's clearly no one in her room," Lucas uttered coldly.
Wendy actually laughed in the face of how confident Lucas and Melody were. She crossed her arms and questioned them nonchalantly, "You should at least pretend to care about Mom even if you don't. Dad and I specifically hired a caregiver because we're afraid we won't be able to take care of her when we're busy. But now you're telling me there's no caregiver inside. So where did they go?"
Wendy secretly congratulated herself for decisively agreeing to hire a 24-hour caregiver when discussing it with Ethan. Otherwise, she would not have been able to justify the situation.
"Melody, I know you're usually very busy, but your filming has ended. Why haven't you come to see your mother even once? Is it because for all these years, you've been jealous and resentful that she favored me over you? She wouldn't have loved me more than you if you weren't such a bad daughter.

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...
