"I've always loved you. You're my only sister, so how could I treat you like that? Thalia, you might be going through a rebellious phase right now, which is why you think it's great to hang out with those troublemakers. But they'll only ruin you!"
Henry was enraged by Thalia's seemingly indifferent attitude. He charged toward her, vehemently wanting to slap her again. Thalia would have surely ended up with a swollen face if it were not for Claudia's intervention.
Henry pointed at Thalia and continuously berated her, "This is all my fault. I shouldn't have spoiled you! You have no achievements, yet you have the audacity to blame me and your sister? Do you know how much your sister has sacrificed for you? She stays up late every night to find study materials for you and organize your schedule, and what do you do? You hang out with those troublemakers who'll only ruin your life. I'm utterly disappointed in you, Thalia!"
"I know whatever I do is wrong in your eyes, so I might as well continue doing what I'm doing! After all, it's not like you want me as your daughter anymore!" roared Thalia in frustration, tears streaming down her face like a waterfall.
She stubbornly covered her mouth, refusing to let herself cry out loud.
Claudia felt a pang of heartache seeing her sister like that. "Dad, please stop scolding her. Thalia's just in a bad mood. Don't you know her temperament is most like yours?
"We need to sit and discuss this properly, Thalia. But you can't keep hanging out with those people. You might end up in real trouble if you continue on like this."
Claudia remained frowning. She could not pinpoint when her sister's opinion of her had grown so bad. She wanted to help her, but in Thalia's eyes, it seemed like she was just trying to please their father. Speaking up for her sister had also been misconstrued as having ulterior motives.

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...
