The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 2077

'Oh, I forgot that this man is here to deliver food to Stella. It's none of my concern, then,' thought Melody.

Lucas frowned when he saw Melody being indifferent as usual. He came all the way to see her, yet she still maintained an aloof attitude.

"Hmph. Don't you find it unattractive that you, the female lead, are squatting here so inelegantly?" S~ᴇaʀᴄh the Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Melody was quite puzzled. "No one else found it inelegant that I was squatting here before you got here. Aren't you here to find someone? Well, go on."

'How can she still be so aloof when she knows I'm here to find her? Does she really think she's some bigshot or something?' thought Lucas.

"Melody, don't tell me you think you're some bigshot actress now just because you got on the trending topic once. You do know you still have a long way to go, right?" said Lucas with a sarcastic smile.

His airy tone made Melody quite uncomfortable as if all her previous efforts were in vain. Melody wanted to give him a piece of her mind, but considering their contractual relationship, she held back her angry words.

Once she earned enough money to repay all the debts she owed him, they would have no further ties.

"It's none of your business," she replied.

She then turned and left, immensely satisfied.

Lucas' expression hardened. 'Well, some people just don't know what's good for them!'

With a stern expression, he silently watched Melody walk away.

"Go, bring Lucas to me. Just tell him I have something important to discuss!"

Stella knew Lucas had come to the film studio, and witnessing the argument between Lucas and Melody only added to her delight.

At that moment, she did not have time to scold her assistant since she still needed the assistant to run errands for her.

"Hurry up! Otherwise, Lucas is going to go back to the office!"

Stella sat in the dressing room trailer. She carefully touched up her makeup in the mirror, and her reflection smiled alluringly back at her.

"Hmph, I've said it before. There won't be any real outcome between those two because Lucas ultimately belongs to me. Oh, sweet Melody, you may have won over the audience, but so what? I'll get Lucas' heart!"

Lucas looked at Stella's assistant indifferently. "Couldn't she have said whatever she needed to say over here? Why do I have to go to her dressing room?"

The assistant cowered, avoiding eye contact with Lucas. His towering height of over two meters brought significant pressure, making the assistant quite uneasy. Coupled with the long-standing influence of his family background, it was not something an ordinary person could easily withstand.

"Mister Lucas, I... I don't know what Miss Stella wants to talk to you about. I'm just a messenger..." stammered the assistant.

'Look at how the poor man is trembling. He must face a lot of pressure from Stella every day,' thought Lucas.

He did not want to make things difficult for these lower-level employees. Even though his face looked as dark as if a storm was brewing, he eventually walked toward Stella's dressing room.

After discussing the plot with Shaun, Melody saw from the corner of her eyes Lucas taking the steps up to Stella's dressing room trailer.

She quickly lowered her head and bit her lip in frustration. Despite entertaining a faint hope that Stella's call with Lucas was just a sham, when the scene was happening right in front of her, she realized that she was not as composed as she imagined.

She had to admit to herself that she minded a lot, but what right did she have to do that?

Shaun exchanged a glance with the producer. It was as clear as day to them what was happening.
