Cedric was filled with immense regret, wondering if the tragedy could have been prevented if he had followed Beatrice upstairs. At least then he could have tried to catch her when she fell, preventing her from lying here all alone.
At that moment, he thought about many things. Earlier, when discussing matters of life and death with Lucas and Melody, he could still face them with composure. He and Beatrice had already agreed that no matter who left first, the other would follow after arranging everything. However, when everything actually happened, he found himself unable to do it; he could not accept her death.
"You've always bossed me around, so why aren't you telling me what to do now? Get up and tell me what to do! I just had two drinks with Old Freddy, so why aren't you giving me hell for it?"
Cedric's aging face was even more wrinkled. Tears were pooling in his eyes, making him look even more pitiful.
Melody stumbled and fell beside Lucas. She looked at the elderly woman in front of her, wanting to reach out but hesitating to touch her. "Grandma... wake up! What happened? You were fine just now, weren't you?"
Melody's question reminded Lucas, and he stood up with red eyes to survey the surroundings. "Did anyone see how my grandmother fell down just now? Please tell me if you did. I'll reward you handsomely for the information!"

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...
