"Then tell me, what am I jealous of you for? Jealous that you stole your sister's life? Or jealous that for all these years, you've been living as someone you're not, imitating your sister's habits just to please Lucas? You think that high and mighty life of yours is something I admire? Well, I don't, because I am who I am. I'll never be like you, someone who's lost touch with their true self."
Quinn's words struck Thalia like a bolt of lightning, causing her eyes to widen in shock. "What are you saying? Don't think you can spout nonsense just because you've had a few drinks! Don't blame me for disregarding our friendship if I hear any more of that!"
Quinn scoffed. "Do you think I want to be your friend? Your sister didn't meet a good end, and seeing that only fills me with dread. Tell me, do you think Lucas would still feel indebted for being saved by your sister back then if she knew the true cause of her death? He'd probably want to strangle you!"
Beatrice was originally coming to check on Melody and she did not expect to hear such a conversation between Thalia and Quinn.
Quinn's words left Beatrice puzzled. 'What did she mean by Thalia's sister's true cause of death? What hidden truth was there from the past? Why didn't Thalia react angrily to her words immediately but instead seemed anxious, almost as if she wanted to escape? What is she feeling guilty about?'
Beatrice held her breath, deciding to stay in that shadowy spot a bit longer, wanting to uncover the hidden secrets behind the conversation.
"You're drunk. I warn you, you better not cause a scene like last time. Now then, I have something else to do. Goodbye," said Thalia, grabbing her handbag to leave.

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...
