As the hostess, Melody returned to the Riveras' mansion early with Lucas and changed into a suitable gown. Her gown perfectly accentuated her graceful figure without being overly revealing, giving her an air of nobility and elegance.
Lucas was very pleased to see the gown he personally chose being worn by Melody.
"May I have the honor of inviting you to dance?" asked Lucas with a smile.
Blushing, Melody extended her hand and lifted her face, appearing as elegant as a swan. "Of course," she replied.
The two of them danced back and forth in the room. When Lucas firmly held Melody in his arms, he finally felt a sense of security and was reluctant to let go of her hand.
It was only when the housekeeper knocked on the door to urge them that Lucas let go of Melody.
Before going downstairs, Lucas looked at Melody and asked, "Are you nervous?"
Strangely, Melody was nervous before, turning her hands and feet cold, but after the dance with Lucas, she did not seem so afraid anymore.
It did not matter how many people would be there at the party. After all, there were just as many people around when she was shooting a movie. Sometimes, she even had to perform very 'abnormal' scenes in front of others.
'If I can do it then, then I can do it now too!' she thought to herself.
"With you by my side, I'm not afraid at all."
Lucas lifted her hand to his lips and planted a kiss on it with a smile. "I'll always be by your side, no matter when. Just remember that."
As they opened the door, the two of them appeared at the staircase hand in hand. Downstairs, people holding champagne glasses turned their heads to look at the hosts of the evening.

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...
