Melody was just about to nod, as it would be nice to take a relaxing stroll in the garden, when she unexpectedly received a call from the film crew.
"Hello, is this Miss Melody?"
"Hello, yes. This is she."
"I'm calling in regards to what happened with the crew yesterday. There have been some developments. We need you to come to the set to help with the investigation!"
Melody did not expect there would be progress so quickly but immediately agreed to go.
After Melody hung up the phone, Beatrice looked at her with a worried expression. "Melody, do you really have to go to the set so soon? It might not be the best time to go now."
Melody understood what Beatrice was concerned about, and it was enough for her to know that someone cared about her.
She affectionately linked arms with the elderly lady and reassured her, "Grandma, don't worry! We're in a society governed by rules and laws, and the police are handling the case. It won't be that easy for them to frame me.
"Besides, they asked me to go because there have been developments. I wouldn't go if there was no progress. You should go take that stroll in the garden with Grandpa. I'll excuse myself this time, but I'll spend time with you tomorrow!"
Beatrice was relieved that Melody seemed to have cheered up a little bit. She patted her hand. "My poor child, you've certainly been through a lot. Go take care of your matters. There are plenty of people at home, so you don't need to worry about Grandpa and me."
Melody nodded emphatically.
'If things go smoothly, I'll no longer have to endure the feeling of being alienated and mistrusted by everyone,' she thought.
She hated the feeling of not being believed by anyone.
Seeing them all singing the same tune, Melody could not help but scoff and utter, "Ignorant fools."
What did it matter what this group of people said or thought? As long as she could prove her innocence later, she could completely ignore what they said. She was hoping for Shaun to bring evidence that could prove her innocence.
However, before Shaun arrived, she unexpectedly saw Stella strutted up to her with a triumphant and confident air.
"I must say, it's hard not to believe in auras? Just look at how Miss Stella is glowing! Compared to Melody, it's like night and day. I really don't understand what those people see in Melody! How could they say she's the most pure actress?"
"Yeah, isn't this whole pure thing just an excuse for those who can't act to save their life? The ones carrying the box office are still professional actresses like Miss Stella!"
They marveled and praised Stella's remarkable achievements again.

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...
