The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Understanding something was one thing, but seeing Melody act on it was another. Lucas realized that they were inseparable. At that moment, he was certain that he had gained another person in his life who loved him so deeply.
"I'm fine with the arrangement, but won't you feel rushed in your work?" asked Lucas.
Melody smiled and shook her head. "It won't be too rushed. I have a feeling that Grandma will wake up very soon. She loves you so much, so she wouldn't bear to see you sad."
Melody's words acted as a powerful confidence boost; even Lucas felt certain that Beatrice would wake up soon.
He drove Melody to the dance studio. "Let me know when you're done here, and I'll come to pick you up. Don't go back on your own, okay?"
Despite the lack of evidence proving that Beatrice was pushed, Lucas remained deeply concerned about her. After the previous accidents in their family, he would not allow such a thing to happen again. After Melody agreed, he headed to his company. The news about the Rivera family had been circulating widely, so naturally, people in the company were aware of it.
Some people in the company were indeed trying to pry into the situation. When they saw Lucas striding onto his personal elevator, they could not help but lower their heads and avoid eye contact. Despite gossiping being a natural human trait, self-preservation was also ingrained in their nature.
Melody was too busy to browse online news, so she was unaware of the rumors online. However, Lucas knew about them. He immediately called Leo to his office.
As he rapidly skimmed through the piles of files on his desk, Lucas did not even raise his head as he spoke to Leo, who was sitting in front of him.
"You should know how to handle things online, right? I want you to deal with this matter without considering the costs. I want everyone spreading rumors to pay the price," Lucas said, determination evident in his voice.
Unlike Melody, he was not as kind-hearted. He had had enough of people repeatedly slandering Melody.
Melody was of a gentle nature. Wendy not only bullied her in real life but also continued to harass her online. She seemed determined to push Melody to the very depths of hell. However, Lucas could not stand by and watch anymore. Since Wendy was already living in such misery, he decided to make it even worse for her.
"Yes, Mister Lucas," Leo replied with just those three words before leaving the office. He breathed a sigh of relief only after he walked out the door. Edmund walked up to him and was surprised by Leo's demeanor. "Why do you look so frightened when Mister Lucas is only asking you to do your job?" Leo patted Edmund's shoulder. "Dude, you're a tough one. I truly admire you for being still fine after working by Mister Lucas' side for so many years."

Edmund had the strongest mental fortitude in the entire company. He could face Lucas' gaze as if it meant nothing! Just a glance from Lucas was enough to make Leo feel weak in the knees. He almost wanted to kneel and promise to complete the task as quickly as possible. Visit
