The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 2054

"Oh, did Grandma Beatrice say so? Miss Stella, please feel free to indulge. Make sure to eat more later." Melody pursed her lips, maintaining a calm expression.

Stella smiled, arching her eyebrows. "Absolutely! I must eat more of Grandma Beatrice's dishes! She still treats me just as she did before. When I was little, I used to come to the Rivera household often to play with Lucas. At that time, Grandma Beatrice would often buy us candies to enjoy!"

Indeed.

Stella and Lucas had grown up together, so Beatrice must have known her for a long time. Moreover, given how attractive she looked, she must have been pretty in her childhood. Facing such a delicate little doll, Grandma Beatrice must have watched her fondly.

Oddly enough, Grandma Beatrice did not play matchmaker for Lucas and Stella.

If they had been together, she would not be here.

Melody could not figure it out and decided not to dwell on it any longer. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Miss Melody, you and Lucas have been married for quite some time. You must've tasted Grandma Beatrice's home-cooked meals by now!" Stella stared closely at her expression, sensing a momentary awkwardness on her face.

Stella pretended to be surprised, covering her mouth. "Oh, my! Melody, really? After all this time, Grandma Beatrice hasn't cooked for you yet?"

Melody furrowed her brow. She could sense that Stella was subtly trying to showcase the strong bond between herself and Grandma Beatrice, both openly and behind the scenes.

No matter. They could enjoy being friends with each other. It was none of her concern.

Melody curled her lips, revealing a faint indifferent smile. "Since you and Grandma Beatrice get along so well, please have a nice chat with Grandma Beatrice later. I'm a bit tired now, so I'll go back to my room to rest. Excuse me."

With those words, Melody headed upstairs. She was genuinely tired, and her mood was a bit irritable.

Stella watched Melody's retreating figure, a hint of jealousy flashing in her eyes. How could that Melody boldly go up to Lucas' room? Who did she think she was?

Stella had no right to compare herself to the relationship that Lucas had with Beatrice. While she did grow up with Lucas, their family background was nowhere near the level of the Riveras. Their ancestors were merely friends of friends, a distant connection.

Moreover, since she was a child, Beatrice never liked her. She often stopped her from playing with Lucas.

Later, when she entered the entertainment industry and needed connections, she sought help from Lucas. Although Beatrice turned a blind eye to it, Stella knew that Beatrice had spread rumors behind her back, stating that the Riveras would never allow a woman from the entertainment industry to enter their gates. This rule was clearly aimed at her.

Melody had entered the entertainment industry and was filming, yet that old woman had not kicked Melody out.

Stella sat on the sofa, contemplating her next move. She could not afford to waste this rare opportunity at the Riveras' residence.

"Lucas, you're back!"

Melody had not even reached her room when she heard a joyful voice coming from downstairs.
