All Chapters of The Day I Kissed An Older Man: Chapter 2021 - Chapter 2030

Stella's eyes wandered as she walked over and sat in the chair opposite Shaun."I heard you spent several years working on 'War Song'. Is that why I haven't seen any new works from you in the past few years?" she inquired cautiously."Yes, that's right. I love the story of 'War Song', and I personally oversaw the script. I strongly believe this movie will be a big success," said Shaun, becoming quite talkative when it came to his new project.After finishing his previous film, Shaun faced a creative bottleneck. He did not know what genre to pursue or how to break through. Eventually, he encountered the story of 'War Song'—a tale of a female entrepreneur. It took several years of dedication to craft the script."But isn't it a bit risky to cast a newcomer for such an important production?" Stella's question was met with Shaun's deep gaze.Feeling his eyes on her, Stella quickly put on an innocent expression and waved her hands. "Mister Shaun, please don't misunderstand. I'm not say

However, when she looked into Lucas' firm eyes and listened to his patient explanations, she began to believe, albeit slightly, that he really went to see Shaun for her sake.Realizing that he was truly there for her, the frustration Melody felt just a moment ago disappeared, replaced by a sense of bashfulness. She seemed to realize that the relationship between her and Lucas was no longer the same as before."Now are you willing to talk to me nicely?" Lucas leaned over her and smiled. "You haven't had lunch yet, have you?"Melody was not hungry, but when Lucas mentioned it, she suddenly felt a hollow sensation in her stomach and nodded. "Yeah, I'm a bit hungry."Lucas raised his hand to look at the time on his watch."It's already past twelve. I haven't had lunch either. How about we grab a meal together?""Sure."Melody tried to restrain the smile on her face. It was only when she had her back turned to him that she allowed herself to beam with joy with her cheeks slightly flu

Lucas picked up his glass and sipped his water. "It didn't close down. I stepped in and acquired it before it went bankrupt.""Really?" Stella's face lit up with surprise. "So that means I can still have it? Lucas, when can you take me to the factory for a tour?"While they chatted, Melody remained silent, engrossed in her phone the entire time. She had not experienced these past events, so she could not find a way to join the conversation. Other than playing with her phone, she could not think of anything else to do.It seemed like Stella intentionally brought up this topic to create a distance between Melody and them. She was trying to make Melody understand that she and Lucas were childhood sweethearts and a perfect match.Playing with her phone, a message from Sherman popped up on the screen, and Melody casually clicked on it.[I heard you signed the contract for Shaun's new movie. Congratulations!]Upon seeing the message, Melody's first reaction was how he knew about it. Sh

Stella might not have stated anything explicitly, but her intentions were unmistakably clear. She was subtly hinting to Melody that she should willingly let her and Lucas take the Riveras' car.Melody could comply, but she could not fathom why Stella never chose to express her intentions directly. Instead, she opted for this indirect approach, which felt far from nice.Stepping back a few paces, Melody turned to survey the surroundings. They were not really that far from the city center, so there should be a way to leave. Sure enough, she spotted a bus station not far away.She would be able to find her way back home as long as there was a bus.'I should just let Stella have Lucas' car since she seems so hellbent on taking it,' she thought."There's a bus stop over there. I can go home by myself." Melody pointed to the nearby bus stop. "Lucas, you should give Miss Stella a ride to her set since it's so far away."Stella's expression brightened 'gratefully'. She grabbed her hand a

Undeniably, Melody was harboring expectations in her heart when she asked him that question. She wondered, 'Who am I exactly to him?'Lucas gazed at her silently for a while before sighing helplessly. "Although Stella and I grew up together, we're not childhood sweethearts. We're just ordinary friends," he explained.Melody's heart skipped a beat. Did his explanation imply that he cared deeply about her feelings?'Oh, sh*t!' she thought when she realized that.She was afraid she might develop feelings for Lucas if things continued at this rate. Unfortunately, that was simply impossible. She and Lucas were people from two different worlds—he a prince, and she a peasant. How could they have a future together?"Okay, I understand." Melody did not say much more. She just nodded in response to Lucas' words and walked ahead. "Let's go. Grandpa and Grandma must be waiting for us."Lucas was not entirely satisfied with her response.The only reason he was willing to explain to Melody wa
