The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 2003

Helen, upon hearing that Melody was not taking Sherman seriously, became anxious. "Melody, why are you so foolish? You'd rather be a sugar baby to some old pervert than date a good young man like President Sherman?"

Even at this moment, Helen still thought Melody was a sugar baby.

"Say whatever you want." Melody did not want to talk to her anymore, so she called for a ride through the app on her phone.

Helen became even more anxious. She paced back and forth in the same spot several times. "Melody, I really think you shouldn't let go of this opportunity."

Regardless of what she said, Melody paid no attention. She just kept her eyes fixed on her phone screen to see where the car was.

When the car arrived, Melody simply pushed Helen into it, closed the door, and instructed the driver to drop her mother off at the address given.

Melody finally breathed a sigh of relief as she watched the car leave with Helen in it. Her life would inevitably turn into chaos whenever the Sanders appear.

After dealing with Helen's matter, Melody hesitated for a moment before making up her mind to return to the building to find Sherman.

"Sherman, senior, I'm sorry about today. I didn't expect my mom to find her way here."

"It's okay." Sherman noticed her somewhat upset expression and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"

Melody did not want to disclose her family matters to others, so she smiled and nodded. "Yes, of course."

"Is your relationship with your mom not good? I noticed you were quite tense when you found out she came to my office."

Anyone with a discerning eye could tell there was tension between Melody and her mother. However, Melody did not want to reveal these unpleasant matters to Sherman. "We're fine, Sherman." As they were talking, Lucas called, and Melody quickly answered.

"Melody, where are you?" he asked.

Knowing that Lucas did not like her to have any contact with Sherman, she decided to tell him a white lie by just saying that she had some business outside.

"I'll come pick you up if you're done," said Lucas.

Melody did not dare to let Lucas come to pick her up. After all, her lie would be exposed if he came.

"It's okay. I'm actually on my way back already."

"Okay." Lucas did not ask further and ended the call.

After hanging up, Melody bid farewell to Sherman and took a taxi back to the Riveras' residence. Upon entering the house, she saw Beatrice, Cedric, and Lucas sitting together in the living room, talking and laughing happily.

Seeing Melody come in, Beatrice waved at her with a smile. "Melody, you're back! Come sit over here."

Melody smiled and walked over to sit beside Beatrice. "Grandma, what are you all talking about? Everyone seems so happy."

"Lucas is telling us that he's planning to take you to a movie later," Beatrice said, patting Melody's hand gently.

Melody narrowed her eyes skeptically. The idea that Lucas, an unromantic person, would suggest going to a movie with her was quite unbelievable. After all, their relationship was purely based on employment so it would be a waste of time for him to invest in the relationship.
