Even bystanders were intoxicated when they saw how enamored Melody and Lucas were of each other. Someone could not resist shouting, "I believe in love again!"
"It seems you didn't know that your husband would come after all, Melody," the host commented, and he handed the microphone to Melody.
"He's good at keeping secrets," she replied with a nod.
The host then turned to Lucas and asked, "Lucas, do you think Melody will win the award tonight?"
The host seemed to be digging a hole for them. Others might speculate about whether Melody's award was legitimate if Lucas said yes, but if he said no, it would seem unrealistic.
"I wish nothing but success for her," he replied.
The host did not dare to continue probing, fearing to offend this influential figure.
"Alright, let's wish both of them success. Now, let's welcome the next guest!"
Lucas bent down to pick up Melody's train. "Let's go, my queen."
Melody blushed as she watched his lips. He not only surprised her in such a big way but also made all these gestures in front of the media. Although they behaved like this on a regular basis, she did not want other people to underestimate the company president of Rivera Group.
When they drew close again, Melody expressed her concerns to him, but Lucas firmly held her hand in his usual manner.
"I'm just taking care of my wife. What's wrong with that? You should stop overthinking. Things aren't like it was before anymore."
As the awards ceremony truly began, time seemed to fly by. Soon, the screen displayed the award for Best Newcomer Actress.
Presenting the award was the previous year's Best Newcomer Actress, who had achieved success in the Best Supporting Actress category this year.
"Wow, I'm so happy to see so many young actors and actresses chasing their dreams. This year, we have an unexpected winner emerging from the summer's blockbuster hit. I believe she will also become an unexpected winner among actresses in the future. Let us congratulate the leading female star in War Song, Melody Sander!"
Melody covered her mouth in surprise as she stood up. Even after her name was announced as the winner, she still could not believe it. Lucas lifted up her arm and encouraged her to go on stage.
Once on stage, she remained dazed. "Hello, everyone. I am the newcomer actress, Melody Sander. I'm very happy and surprised to receive this award. To say that I didn't expect it would be a lie, but only when I hold this trophy in my hands do I feel the weight of this honor. Thank you, Mister Shaun. Thank you to all the crew of War Song for their help. Without you all, there would be no Athena, and I wouldn't have this honor today. Thank you all!"

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...
