All Chapters of The Day I Kissed An Older Man: Chapter 2371 - Chapter 2380

Melody's eyes were filled with bewilderment and innocence. Tears also welled up in her eyes as if they were about to spill over any second."Of course not! How could I ever suspect you?"Melody smiled bitterly. "Really? Do you truly believe me? Or are you just saying that to comfort me? I don't want to hear lies. I want you to tell me the first thought that came into your mind when you heard what happened. Sherman, do you really think I'm a bad person?"Sherman did not know what Lucas had said to Melody, but her demeanor was clearly off, like some sort of stress response."I've never thought you were a bad person. On the contrary, you're the kindest person I know. Heck, you're even reluctant to take revenge when the others have wronged you. The Melody I know is always so positive and uplifting. Tell me, why do you doubt my trust in you? Did someone say something to you?"Melody's eyes remained wide open as if she could not believe Sherman's words."Really? I'm not as perfect as y

"I..." Melody did not know how to respond to Sherman. Was she happy with Lucas' side?There had been moments of happiness where just being in the same space as him seemed enough for her. However, ever since Thalia appeared, everything became complicated. Lucas' attention was no longer solely on her; there was another woman in his world, someone he spent more time with and understood better.Since then, being with Lucas has brought more frustration than happiness. However, she was willing to endure it just for those fleeting moments of happiness.Until Melody could not bear it anymore and moved out of the house, she wanted to be clearer-headed and also wanted to know what kind of feelings Lucas truly had for her. Did he even love her?"True happiness doesn't require hesitation or contemplation. You don't need to tell me the answer. I can see it in your expression, Melody. I don't demand an answer from you. Just remember what I've said to you today. Always prioritize your own happine

"Lucas, do you know what kind of woman Melody is? She behaves differently in front of you. I know you won't believe me, but the fact that I got hurt should be proof enough. I couldn't have done this to myself. So why don't you go ask her what happened!"There were no cameras in the restroom, so Thalia was confident her lies would not be exposed. She was not afraid of Lucas looking into the matter."I'm not saying I don't believe you, but...""But what? I've suffered such a serious injury, yet you still don't believe me and choose to believe her! I would've sued her if she wasn't your wife! I want her to know that I'm not so easily bullied!"Melody was an actress then, so it would be disastrous if she got caught up in a controversy.Lucas immediately stopped Thalia. "Don't act recklessly! It's different here than in Molomia. Lawsuits can be very troublesome. I promise you I'll look into this matter thoroughly. Just don't make any rash moves until I've got to the bottom of this, und

"You brat, how am I making things complicated? I'm taking care of Melody, alright? I just wanted to check on her, but you and your grandpa kept stopping me! Aren't you two worried about her living all alone?"Beatrice could not help but feel a pang of heartache at the thought of Melody cooking and doing laundry all alone."Melody is only temporarily moving out. It's not like she's permanently leaving. Why are you two being so cold toward her? Lucas, you better explain clearly what happened today. Otherwise, why won't you let me see her?"Beatrice's intuition was always sharp, and Lucas found himself speechless. Initially, he had planned to let Melody video call Beatrice using his own phone to show that he had visited her, but then the unexpected happened."Grandma, there's so much going on at work every day. It would wear me out if I had to report everything to you. You can just call Melody if you want to see her. It's so easy now with smartphones. Even if you don't know how, Grand

While watching Melody happily enjoy the chicken soup, Beatrice could not help but advise again. "Melody, why don't you come back home with me? I can't bear to see you living alone here, especially in such a small dormitory. You have to rely on your friends to buy food for you every day. It's not as convenient as having Lynette prepare meals for you at home, where you can have whatever you want..."Melody paused, then she looked up and smiled. "Grandma, it's fine, really. I find it convenient here."In fact, the dormitory provided by the production crew was not small at all. It had three bedrooms, a living room, two bathrooms, and a kitchen. Melody did not really need such a large space, but compared to the Riveras' mansion, it was significantly smaller.Thus, it was understandable that Beatrice looked down on the place. It just did not sit right with her; seeing Melody living in such a small room, she felt it was beneath her.Beatrice knew Melody would not agree. Her eyes were fill
