Semua Bab The Day I Kissed An Older Man: Bab 1991 - Bab 2000

The scene began as the male lead and 'Cathy'—played by Wendy—went window-shopping. The female lead rushed out and slapped Wendy."Joshua Riley! Didn't you say you were in a meeting? Who is this woman?!" screamed the female lead.Wendy was upset by the slap. 'Why did she have to hit me so badly? We're just acting, aren't we?'She covered her cheek and acted out her role angrily. "Who are you? Why did you hit me?""Who am I, you ask?" The female lead pointed at the male lead. "I am Joshua's wife. We're legally married! Have you no shame in hooking up with a married man? You homewrecker!"Wendy glanced at the male lead, who showed no fear at all, and confidently said, "So what if you're his wife? He told me that he doesn't love you at all. The one who's not loved is the mistress!"Melody watched the 'drama' unfold from the observation room.While Wendy's performance in other movie roles was mediocre, she surprisingly portrayed the role of the homewrecker convincingly. In fact, the

Melody revealed the truth to her. "The drama doesn't exist at all, and there were no cameras recording during the supposed audition. Wendy, you like acting, don't you? Well, you should be happy that I hired so many people to act with you."Wendy finally realized that she had been deceived, and her eyes filled with anger. "How dare you lie to me?! Just what are you trying to achieve by pulling such a stunt on me?"She reached out to slap Melody, seeking to vent her frustration. However, Melody quickly stepped back, avoiding the slap. "You can't touch me right now. I have ways of ruining your reputation if you dare to lay a finger on me."Wendy did not believe her, but considering how smoothly Melody managed to snatch away her advertisement deal, she felt a bit uncertain. Thus, she did not dare to act rashly for the time being and instead asked, "What are you talking about, Melody?""You know what I mean." Melody pointed at the several cameras nearby. "The audition wasn't recorded by

After today's performance, Lucas seemed to see a different side of Melody. She used Wendy's desire to act to teach her a lesson in a process. Not to mention, she got leverage out of the whole thing as well. Melody was certainly more cunning than he gave her credit for."Me? Become an actress?" Melody found Lucas' question somewhat perplexing. She walked over, plugged the USB drive into the computer, and began copying the necessary surveillance videos. "Why would I? I'm not like Wendy, who dreams of becoming a famous actress and living the life of a big star. I don't want my every move to be excessively scrutinized by people."Lucas chuckled softly. "Is that so? But I think you're more talented at acting than your sister. You'll have a bright future if you become an actress."Melody realized that Lucas was teasing her. She thought about the scene she had just played with Wendy and felt somewhat flustered."If you're just going to sit here and mock me about this, I suggest you leave,

"Didn't I tell you you don't need to work?" Lucas was starting to get impatient.'I told her that she didn't have to repay the three million dollars, yet she insists on finding a job. Can't she just be at peace?' he thought."Lucas, I know I don't have to work while I'm part of your family, but that won't be the case a year from now. What am I supposed to do then? I'm not like you. I don't have endless money. I still need to work!"That was something Lucas had not considered. Their contract was only for a year. After one year, they would peacefully divorce. Moreover, she could not go back to her own family since she had severed all ties with them. There was nowhere she could go, so she had to come up with a backup plan."When the time comes, I'll have Edmund arrange a house and a car in your name. I'll also give you a sum of money after the divorce, so you don't have to worry about anything at all," said Lucas after a minute of silence.He had indeed arranged things quite appropri

Meanwhile, Lucas drove Melody back home after they finished their lunch.Melody got out of the car, but when she noticed Lucas remained seated, she turned to ask him, "Aren't you getting out?""I have some things to take care of," Lucas replied.Melody felt disappointed, and there was a bitter feeling in her heart. 'Is he going to find Stella?' she wondered.Lucas gave a helpless smile when he saw her expression. "I haven't been to the office all day, and there are many things I need to do, so I can't afford to relax.""You're going to the office?" Melody's mood brightened slightly with a smile. "Don't work too late. Your family is already wealthy, so you don't need to work so hard. Your health is more important."Melody turned and happily skipped into the house.Lucas' gaze involuntarily softened as he watched her go into the house. It was sort of nice to have Melody living with them. At least, his grandparents seemed to be in a good mood every day because of her antics.He th
