The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Lucas showed him no courtesy and set the wine glass aside before heading
down. "You can discuss work matters with Edmund. He'll hand over your proposal to me," he said without even bothering to look at the man. The middle- aged man could only stare helplessly. He did not dare to ask any more questions or follow Lucas down.
Lucas went downstairs and walked straight toward Melody. He wanted to know what it was that his gorgeous fiancee was talking about so happily with that stranger.
"When did you arrive?" The familiar voice stiffened Melody's smile. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw Lucas's serious expression. She could tell from his reaction that he was in a bad mood, and she associated his reaction with Sherman sitting next to her.
Lucas had warned her before their cooperation that she should be careful in the way she carried herself in public. Seeing her chatting happily with another man in such a setting must have angered him. She sighed before standing up and replying, "-"
"She just arrived," Sherman said on Melody's behalf before she could finish her words. "I didn't expect you to be here too, cousin."
'Cousin?' Melody was surprised to hear that. She did not expect Sherman to be Lucas' cousin! It was a small world, evidently. All she hoped was that Lucas would stop talking to her at that point. She did not want Sherman to know about the 'marriage' she had with Lucas.
"I just returned home a few days ago, and I've been so busy that I haven't had the time to visit the grandparents. I wonder how they're doing now?" Sherman naturally struck up a conversation with him on family matters.
Lucas's attention seemed focused on Melody, and he merely nodded blankly in response to Sherman's questions.
"What about you? When did you arrive?" Lucas narrowed his eyes and questioned Melody. Her hopes that he would not talk to her had been dashed right that instant.
Sherman was startled by his question and looked at her in confusion. "You're acquainted with my cousin?"
"Yes..." Melody smiled awkwardly.
Lucas was a little unhappy that Melody entertained Sherman instead of looking for her immediately. He was her fiancee, yet he went to another man rather than be with her. "Come here, Melody," Lucas said before Melody could explain anything to Sherman.
She looked at the two men in a dilemma and finally walked helplessly toward Lucas. "Is there anything you need from me?"
