The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2517

Lucas did not dare admit that he actually did not know Melody's tolerance for alcohol. He did not know Melody would get drunk and disoriented with just one glass of champagne.

Melody laid on the bed with flushed cheeks; she looked somewhat uncomfortable.

Beatrice advised Lucas not to go back downstairs. "Just stay here and take care of Melody. Your grandfather and I can handle the rest."

Lucas got up to escort Beatrice out, feeling somewhat concerned. "You two are getting older. I'll take care of her for a while, and if everything's okay, I'll go back downstairs."

Beatrice waved her hand dismissively. "Don't worry about it. Just stay here."

To put it nicely, the guests that night needed to be entertained by Beatrice and Cedric. To put it less politely, aside from a few close friends, they were not particularly interested in mingling with the others. A small matter like that was not something they could not handle.

Lucas felt reassured by Beatrice's words. Before long, the old lady arranged for some sobering soup to be sent up.

Lynette instructed Lucas to feed Melody the soup. "Otherwise, she'll end up with a headache even after waking up."

Thalia watched them from downstairs. Seeing the two of them going back upstairs, she could not resist following them up.

Quinn, however, stopped her.

"Did you really think I genuinely wanted to stop you? I came here with you today, so I just don't want you to drag me down with you. Besides, you're not that different from me. If it weren't for your sister saving Lucas' life back then, do you think you'd be here now?"

Thalia hated it when people brought up the events of the past. Indeed, if her sister had not saved Lucas' life, Thalia would not have everything she had.

However, that was her family's affair. It was not for others to use it to criticize her.

"So what? I've long known how jealous you are of me, but it was my sister who saved him, not your relative. You're just jealous," Thalia retorted.

"I'm jealous of you?" Quinn scoffed.
