"Why do you have to intervene so much? You know very well that sometimes too much interference isn't good either."
"It's easy for you to say, but you also know my personality. How can I sit back and do nothing when that woman obviously has ill intentions toward my grandson and granddaughter-in-law? That woman is much more scheming than she appears. It's not the first time I've warned her. Last time, she even spiked Lucas' milk with sleeping pills! Who knows what else she could've done if we didn't find out in time?"
This caught Amber by surprise. "No wonder you were so harsh with her. You're right. You can't let that evil woman near them. But from what I see, the bond between Lucas and Melody seems quite strong. It won't be that easy for an outsider to break them up."
Beatrice nodded in satisfaction. "Their relationship seems to have improved a lot recently. When Lucas first brought Melody home, they were so stiff with each other, thinking we wouldn't see through them! But you know that third parties always see things more clearly.
"I'm very pleased with Melody, but if Lucas doesn't like her, there's nothing we can do. So I'm very happy to see them getting on so well with each other. Now all I have to do is wait for their good news. It'll be so wonderful if a baby comes along.
"Of course, Melody is an actress, and they're still young. I'm sure they want to pursue their careers for a few more years, and that's entirely up to them."
Amber finally relaxed her brows after seeing Beatrice so happy. "Exactly. I know you're worrying for the sake of them, but you should do it less since their relationship is improving. If you won't do it for them, then at least do it for me. I hope to have many more years gossiping with you."
Beatrice smiled softly. "Of course."
…
Melody did not feel drunk. She just felt a bit dizzy.
'Why… Why are there two Lucases standing in front of me? And why does he keep on teasing me with that glass of red wine?'

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...
