All Chapters of The Day I Kissed An Older Man: Chapter 2301 - Chapter 2310

"But Grandma Beatrice, I have no idea what you're talking about! I didn't return to the country just to spend more time with Lucas. I'm doing it for my future too. I've been abroad for many years now, and I know that Molomia isn't home for me."Here is where I feel a sense of belonging. Are you going to deny me this too?" Thalia spoke with tears streaming down her face. She portrayed a pitiable image, but Beatrice frowned when Thalia hinted at having no family."The Riveras are grateful to your sister for what happened in the past, but my stance has been clear from the beginning. You can repay our family in any way you want, but you can't do so by marrying Lucas."You agreed to that, so I'm wondering why you'd have a change of heart now. Lucas flew to Molomia every year, and I turned a blind eye to avoid making too big of a fuss over things. Your sister may be his benefactor, but you're not. Don't exploit her kindness. I don't appreciate it, and neither would Lucas."Thalia's expre

Lucas noticed Thalia's certainty and it seemed as though she had overheard someone criticizing her."It'll be fine. If anyone talks behind your back, just let me know. I won't let anyone make you feel uncomfortable," Lucas assured her.His earlier hesitation in inviting Thalia seemed justified, as he felt that it was more difficult to keep an eye on her if she stayed elsewhere. He simply needed to care for her as long as she was there, and all of that would be over once she returned to Molomia in a few days.Thalia's eyes turned red, and she seemed reluctant to stay there. "I know I've already caused you a lot of trouble, and it wouldn't be good to continue putting this burden on you. I'm willing to stay on my own outside! I'll be fine, I promise!""No. Your health isn't exactly good, and it wouldn't be ideal for you to live alone outside!" Lucas frowned, realizing the severity of the situation.Beatrice and Melody came in while chatting happily with each other, and they were star

Lucas was afraid that Beatrice and Cedric would worry if they overheard them arguing at the door, so he drove the car to a quiet spot under the trees."There's no need to argue about this. Melody and I have been staying in the hospital all this while, and you've just returned. You're basically not with us most of the time, so how could there be any misunderstandings?"Lucas's attitude was already very clear, which made Thalia both angry and resentful.Thalia did not expect that after so many years of knowing each other, Lucas would unhesitatingly take Melody's side. Her eyes turned red, and tears welled up as if they were about to fall at any moment. She told him that she heard the kitchen staff gossiping about her in the kitchen.Melody still did not believe Thalia's words. The kitchen staff were all very kind. How could they badmouth others behind their backs?Even Lucas could not believe it. At least two or three of the kitchen staff had been part of the household since he was

'I better stop crying lest Grandpa and Grandma worry about me again,' thought Melody.As soon as Beatrice stood in front of her, she noticed Melody's eyes were noticeably redder than usual and immediately held her hand."What happened? Why are you crying out of the blue?" Beatrice asked.Melody forcibly smiled and shook her head. "It's nothing. I'm not crying. It's just that the wind here is so strong and it irritated my eyes. Grandma, please hurry and have everyone spread out to search. Lucas had also gone into the forest. I didn't dare to act recklessly, so I had no choice but to wait for her to arrive."Beatrice and Cedric's faces turned grim upon hearing that even Lucas had rushed into the forest."How stupid can that boy get? Does he really think he'll be able to find Thalia when he's so poorly equipped? The most important thing to do in this kind of situation is to stay calm, yet he recklessly charged into the forest!"Melody remained silent. She had already advised him, on

"Hick! Lucas, what took you so long to find me? Do you know how scared I was?"Lucas felt a huge weight lift off his chest when he saw Thalia. He did not want anything to happen to her because of him.He did not push Thalia away but instead reached out and patted her shoulder."There, there. I found you. Everything's okay now."Melody felt bitter when she saw how affectionately Lucas and Thalia embraced each other. It seemed they did not need her after all.After comforting Thalia for a while, Lucas finally let her go. "Are you hurt?"Thalia just said she did not know where she had run off to and then mentioned that her foot was a little sore."Your foot? Let me see if you sprained it."After checking and making sure she was not seriously injured, Lucas led her back. "It might be a slight sprain. We'll have a doctor look at it when we get back."Melody had already turned off her flashlight when they started heading out. She leaned against a tree, unsure of how to react. Should
