Understanding something was one thing, but seeing Melody act on it was another. Lucas realized that they were inseparable. At that moment, he was certain that he had gained another person in his life who loved him so deeply.
"I'm fine with the arrangement, but won't you feel rushed in your work?" asked Lucas.
Melody smiled and shook her head. "It won't be too rushed. I have a feeling that Grandma will wake up very soon. She loves you so much, so she wouldn't bear to see you sad."
Melody's words acted as a powerful confidence boost; even Lucas felt certain that Beatrice would wake up soon.
He drove Melody to the dance studio. "Let me know when you're done here, and I'll come to pick you up. Don't go back on your own, okay?"
Despite the lack of evidence proving that Beatrice was pushed, Lucas remained deeply concerned about her. After the previous accidents in their family, he would not allow such a thing to happen again.
After Melody agreed, he headed to his company. The news about the Rivera family had been circulating widely, so naturally, people in the company were aware of it.
Some people in the company were indeed trying to pry into the situation. When they saw Lucas striding onto his personal elevator, they could not help but lower their heads and avoid eye contact. Despite gossiping being a natural human trait, self-preservation was also ingrained in their nature.
Melody was too busy to browse online news, so she was unaware of the rumors online. However, Lucas knew about them. He immediately called Leo to his office.

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...
