All Chapters of The Day I Kissed An Older Man: Chapter 2241 - Chapter 2250

Penny sighed bitterly and took a few steps back. "I guess I was just too naive. All I want now is to expedite my exit from this industry. Once this film wraps up, I'll do as my mother advised me to and get an accounting degree. I'm not going to delude myself into thinking about a career in the entertainment industry."Monica was rather surprised to see that Penny's usual optimism had been replaced completely by pessimism. She held Penny's arm and led her to a secluded spot.Once they were alone, Monica asked cautiously, "Okay, we're alone now. There's no one around. Now tell me the truth. Did you discover something?"Penny trembled and glanced at Monica with a panicked expression. "No!" she denied vehemently. "What are you talking about? I... I didn't discover anything!"Monica narrowed her eyes. She did not expect to have pinpointed the source of Penny's jitteriness, having asked the question offhandedly. "But if that's the case, why are you being so defensive? You don't seem like

Sherman became visibly anxious. "I hope you'll consider my advice, even if it means having to treat me as a stranger. Are you sure it's a good idea to continue with something so risky?"I'm sure your fans are aware of the pressure you face. Why don't you ask them whether they're willing to see you get yourself in harm's way again? Those who truly care about you wouldn't want you to go through that."Melody frowned, wondering if she was being pressured to give up. "I understand your concern, but this is my first career. I… I don't want to abandon this halfway."Melody's averting gaze led Sherman's frown to grow deeper. "Must you be so stubborn? Why are you clinging so hard to this? Shouldn't you prioritize your life over everything else?""Did you come here just to persuade me to consider giving up acting?" Melody asked. "I appreciate the concern, but this is my life, and I will do what I think is best for myself. I'm entitled to make my own choices, and I'll make sure I'm always sa

Lucas was simmering with anger. Sherman's intentions were glaringly transparent, and he doubted that Melody could not sense what was going on."I view him as just a male friend who shows concern for me from time to time. There's nothing wrong with that. Or are you suggesting that I don't deserve anyone else's care and concern?" Melody's lips were pallid, and her discomfort was apparent. Though she was still unwell, she still mustered the strength to dispute with Lucas.Lucas noticed her straining and initially refrained from arguing with her, but Melody's unwavering defense of Sherman left him feeling incredibly uneasy."Do you think defending him is going to prove anything? That's enough. I'm in no mood to argue right now. You should rest," he said before leaving the ward.Melody felt alone and suffocated. Distressed and aggrieved, Melody could not understand why they had to quarrel over such insignificant things as soon as they met.She longed for Lucas' company, and he seemed t

Lucas contemplated in silence. The director and producer were both perceptive enough to leave him alone. He was a strong force in the business world, and he injected investments for many film projects.Seldom did one see his plans falter once he set things in motion, as things would generally go his way.Lucas remained with the crew until dusk before heading back, thinking Melody must have fallen asleep.At the hospital, Patty organized the daily records and was surprised to see Lucas' return. She whispered, "Your wife is now asleep. If you need to discuss anything with her, do save it until tomorrow morning."Her words were a gentle reminder in the hopes that Lucas would stay with Melody in the ward. That might help Melody sleep a little more soundly that night.Melody had earlier found it difficult to sleep when Lucas was not around. She tossed and turned, which was more than enough for Patty to sense her restlessness. Patty stayed in the ward and talked to Melody about unrelate

Tracy never wanted to do anything to Penny. She had no desire to derive pleasure from harming others. If Penny had just obediently refrained from discussing the incident, Tracy could easily pretend as if nothing had occurred. She could have even turned a blind eye even if the acting skills displayed by that small group were worse than her own.Unfortunately, everything was going smoothly until Penny suddenly went haywire and planned to spill the beans to the meddlesome Monica. Tracy was aware that Penny was merely contemplating an idea, but once an idea took root, it was only a matter of time before that idea was acted upon.Furthermore, Monica always opposed her many times. Going against her had essentially sealed Monica's fate, as Tracy was not prepared to let a blonde jeopardize her future as a superstar.'I'm not ruthless,' Tracy thought to herself. 'It's a shame that Roland had to find out what you knew. He's terrified of other people discovering his misdeeds, which is why he t
