Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Day I Kissed An Older Man: Kabanata 1901 - Kabanata 1910

'I've fought hard for this chance. You better please Mister William in his bed, Melody!' mused Wendy viciously.It was already late at night by the time Wendy returned home. Just as she stepped inside, Helen Lewis came down from upstairs, asking, "Wendy, why are you back so late? Where were you?""I had a work gathering with the crew today." Wendy rubbed her temples and pretended to feel uncomfortable. "Helen, you can't imagine how tough it is for me to secure a role."Seeing Wendy looking distressed, Helen felt a pang of sympathy. "Wendy, you've been through a lot. Go to your room and get some rest.""Okay." Wendy continued her pretense and headed toward her room.…Meanwhile, Melody was going through an experience like never before. She felt uncomfortable all over, and she only felt relief when she touched Lucas' skin. She embraced his body and responded with a naive awkwardness to his kisses.In the hazy atmosphere, she heard Lucas whispering a name in a deep voice by her ear

"Sorry, but I don't know who your employer is. Are you sure you've got the right person?" asked Melody.Edmund remained composed and handed 200 dollars to Melody. "My employer said that Miss Melody will remember upon seeing this.""That's..." Melody looked at the crumpled money and recalled the events from that morning.'Wait, so this suited guy is talking about the one I spent the night with? He seemed pretty important. Is this visit about settling scores?' Melody wondered.Melody became a little frightened. She turned to see Wendy looking at her with suspicion.'If I argue with this guy right now, I won't be able to keep last night's events a secret. Wendy didn't benefit from it, and she won't let it go. She'll definitely use this against me! Instead of going back and getting stabbed in the back by Wendy in front of Mom and Dad, maybe it's better to see what this guy's employer wants...' thought Melody."Okay, I'll go with you," said Wendy.Under Wendy's puzzled gaze, Melody g

"Alright, I'll trust you this time. If you don't bring anyone, I'll genuinely stop taking my meds!" threatened Beatrice.After hanging up the phone, Lucas picked up the 200 dollars Melody left on the floor and dialed Edmund's number."There was a woman in my room yesterday. I need to see her again.""Yes, sir. I'll find her right away."Edmund was startled when he heard that a woman had entered Lucas' room. He had worked for Lucas' for years and knew how much Lucas hated shameless women who tried to hit on him. He always managed things to keep any woman from getting too close to Lucas.Little did he expect a slip-up this time. Fortunately, Lucas did not blow up at him.After leaving the Riveras' residence, Melody stepped outside and answered Helen's call. "Hey, Mom. What's up?""You stupid girl! Where are you right now?!" Helen's tone was harsh. "Melody, we've raised you better than to be someone's mistress! How can you wreck someone else's family? Even if you have no shame, you

"Since we're getting married, there might be a need for you to accompany me to visit my parents later. However, I'd prefer if you didn't let my family know about your identity for now."Melody was worried that Helen and Ethan might get greedy if they found out about Lucas' identity. That would only make things more troublesome for her."Sure," replied Lucas without hesitation.All that was left for Melody to do was sign her name on the marriage contract. Although it was a one-year deal, it meant a year free from worrying about getting kicked out and left stranded.With the agreement signed, Lucas stood up and headed upstairs without uttering another word.Melody hastily stood up and called out. "Wait! Um… So what's next? What am I supposed to do?""Edmund will take care of the rest," said Lucas. After that, he went straight upstairs.Melody pursed her lips and thought, 'What a taciturn man!'She then opened the door and stepped outside, where Edmund was patiently waiting. He ga

With her few belongings packed in a single luggage, Melody was ready to leave.As she descended the stairs, Helen grabbed her arm and asked, "Melody, have you lost your mind? Have you no shred of self-respect?! With your looks, finding a decent guy should be easy. Why stoop to being a home-wrecker?""Mom, is that how you really see me? Just someone who'd willingly become someone's mistress?"Helen was taken aback by the unfamiliar resentment in Melody's gaze. Melody had never looked at her like that, so she could not help but wonder, 'How could she look at me like this? Is it because she found a sugar daddy that she thinks she doesn't need us anymore?'While Helen was momentarily distracted, Melody freed herself from Helen's grasp and briskly descended the stairs with her luggage. As she reached the ground floor, Ethan and Wendy crossed her path.Wendy, eyeing Melody with the suitcase, could not resist a mocking laugh. "What did I tell you, Dad? Melody is someone's mistress now. L
