Henry glanced coldly at Thalia, sensing that something was amiss with her responses. However, he chose not to prolong the argument because arguing about it was not going to help them in any way. Their most important task was to ascertain their whereabouts.
Nonetheless, Thalia's observation struck a chord with Henry. Instead of considering that mishaps might have happened, it was much better to assume that they simply went out on a date. Thankfully, the teachers had the phone numbers of many other students. Further questioning led them to the discovery that the relationship between the two were close but not yet close enough to the extent of having dates.
However, that revelation deeply troubled the adults present. If dating was not the reason for their disappearance, then other more sinister possibilities could have happened.
Thalia felt uneasy. She recognized the burgeoning growing bond between Claudia and Lucas, but all her efforts to snoop on Claudia's phone ended in naught. Not long ago, she could freely access Claudia's messages, but Claudia had since guarded her phone very closely.
As the surveillance continued, a startling discovery unfolded at the door. "Are these the missing students?"
Upon hearing that question, Henry swiftly went over to see if the person on the screen was his daughter. Alas, what he saw sent shivers down his spine. To say that they had left the school implied that they did so willingly, but the truth was anything but. They had been dragged into a car by two strangers and disappeared completely from view.
Henry broke into a cold sweat and struggled to stand upright.

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...
