The Day I Kissed An Older Man

'What kind of expression would he have if he noticed me?' Melody wondered. In
the end, he did not even care to look at her and felt just like a random stranger in the crowd-a mere foil to the true star of the show.
Melody raised her feet and left silently, knowing she would only feel more and more frustrated if she continued to look at them.
Melody returned home with a heavy heart, and she could not control her emotions well. Beatrice immediately noticed that Melody was in a bad mood.
"What's wrong, Melody? Did the police officers bully you?" Beatrice's dry and slightly rough hands caressed Melody's cheek.
She watched Melody squeeze out a stiff smile and said, "I'm fine. Nothing serious happened."
"Come on now, Melody. Even that old man can tell that you're not in a good mood. Tell us what happened. You're still young, and you shouldn't keep everything in your heart. We're your family, after all. You can talk to us."
Melody nodded vigorously. She was afraid that Beatrice's kindness would make her cry.
"Tell us the truth, Melody. Did things go wrong at the police station? Or is the evidence now against you?" Beatrice pulled her to the sofa and looked at her concernedly.
Melody's heart felt even more bitter. Beatrice showed so much concern for her affairs, yet Lucas went on a date with Stella. She even wondered if Lucas had ever shown concern for her.
She shook her head and said, "It went smoothly. I don't have anything to fear because I'm innocent. I also told the police everything I knew, so the rest is up to them to investigate."
Beatrice nodded. "That's good. You've been in the industry for some time now, so I'm sure you're aware that the people there are a mixed bag. Few people take up the career out of a love for acting. "Being pure and innocent is something to be proud of, but you need to be confident and avoid letting others use such devious trickery tactics to target you again. Okay?"
Melody sighed. Beatrice even had to remind her not to fall into other people's traps again, but such instances were not that easy to guard against. She never experienced it before, and it was only when she ventured into the career that she realized just how terrible people could be.
"Okay. But knowing what's going to happen and taking precautions are two different things. I'm focused on doing my best in acting, and I didn't expect that they'd resort to such malice behind my back. I sometimes don't know if I should keep going."
Melody frowned, as the incident had led her to reconsider whether she had made the right choice. Though entering the entertainment industry was the quickest way of repaying Lucas's debt, she had grown to love acting during her time there.

Unfortunately, the longer she stayed, the more she realized the environment's complexity. It was impossible to just focus on acting in apparent ignorance of everything that was happening around her. Cedric placed his newspaper down and said in a very stern tone, "You're our granddaughter-in-law. If that's how you think, then how are the other younger actors going to survive?"
