Sophia decided to leave as she did not want to fight with Adam. However, she suddenly remembered something and stopped to ask, "By the way, Dad, have you found Melinda and Lilin?"
Adam nodded. "They'll be back in a few days."
Sophia frowned. "Really? Where are they now?"
Adam gave her a warning glance. "I just managed to patch things up with Melinda, so please don't stir up trouble again! I'm not going to force you to get along with her. Worse comes to worse, you and I will just steer clear of each other and live our own separate lives in the future."
Sophia knew she was in deep sh*t when she heard that. "What are you saying, Dad? Are you planning to be with Melinda and cut me out?"
Adam suddenly found himself immune to Sophia's tears. He was not falling for the emotional play anymore. "Enough! I never said I didn't want you! Stop overthinking and crying so much! It's really annoying! Just go back to your suite!"
Sophia was taken aback. She never thought there would be a day when her tears would lose their impact on her father. In fact, with Adam offering no solace at that moment, she looked downright foolish with her tear-stained cheeks.
She held back her frustration, wiped away her tears, and turned to leave.
'Hmph! Melinda and Lilin must've said something to Dad to make him treat me like this! Fine, I'll show them! Once I've sorted out the investigation, I'll deal with that irritating mother-daughter duo!' thought Sophia.
…
A day later, the first flight to Molomia soared across the sky before the sun was even up.
As the sun slowly rose, a pair of bride and groom stood solemnly before the priest in the church. They pledged to stand together for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and health, to love and to cherish until death would do them part.
The question startled Francine, and she began to blush. She was known for being straightforward, often letting words spill out without a second thought. The reason she asked Annie about the wedding decorations was also very simple: she just genuinely thought they were beautiful and might come in handy for other events. She never once thought to use them for her own wedding.
When he saw Francine had turned bright red, Chester quickly jumped to her rescue. He smiled bashfully and said, "We haven't set a date yet, but we'll definitely need it someday. Could you please just pass on the details to my girlfriend?"
Annie looked at Chester, who she thought was well-mannered and handsome. "Tsk! I never expected Francine to get such a catch! Hey handsome, mind telling me what made you fall for this girl? Is it because you haven't seen her true colors yet? There's still time to run, you know."
Francine immediately got anxious and hurriedly pulled Chester behind her. "Annie, what are you doing? Today's your big day, so why go ruining it by trying to break Chester and me apart?"
It was obvious that Francine was flustered. She was not particularly confident about Chester; she genuinely feared he might actually leave her one day.

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...
