The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 2176

Melody certainly felt better about the hardships she endured when she thought like that. Smiling in blissful happiness, she waited for Lucas to come back from the restroom so she could tell him her decision. She was willing to give it a try with him, to start anew.

Ring!

Lucas' phone, which was on the table, suddenly rang.

Melody glanced in the direction of the restroom. Lucas was nowhere in sight, but the phone continued to ring incessantly. People around were already looking her way, so she had no choice but to pick it up.

"Thalia?"

It was the name on the screen. Strangely enough, Melody felt the name was somewhat familiar.

Hesitatingly, she glanced in the direction of the restroom, and there were still no signs of Lucas. The person on the other end of the call seemed to be urgently calling, so she reluctantly answered the phone.

"Hello?"

"Lucas, why did you only pick up now? I've called several times! What are you so busy with?"

Melody's heart skipped a beat. 'Who is this sweet-sounding girl on the other end? Why does it sound like she's really close to Lucas?'

Melody remained silent, and the person on the other end did not immediately realize it was not Lucas who had picked up the call. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Why haven't you come to Molomia to see me lately? You came so many times in the first half of the year, but you haven't even shown up once in the past few months. I miss you so much," said the girl before Melody could say anything.

The girl's voice on the other end was gentle but sounded a bit frail, as if she was not in the best of health.

"Uh, sorry to interrupt, but..." Melody felt a little bitter. It sounded like the girl on the other end of the phone really had a close relationship with Lucas. After all, she even said she missed him. "Huh? Who are you? Why do you have Lucas' phone?" The girl's tone immediately changed. "Are you a thief?"

"No, I'm not a thief. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation with Lucas. It's just that his phone isn't with him now, and it wouldn't stop ringing, so I answered on his behalf. If there's something urgent, I can pass on the message to him later or have him call you back."

There was a moment of silence on the other end, as if the girl had not expected another woman to dare answer Lucas' phone. Then, the girl lightly chuckled.

"I see. You must be Melody, right? Lucas mentioned you before, and he even said you're a very interesting girl."

Melody was quite puzzled. Why would Lucas bring up her name when talking to this girl? Could this girl be a relative of Lucas?

Since becoming Lucas' 'wife', Melody had not met any other members of the Rivera family. The spacious mansion only housed Beatrice and Cedric. She had heard that Lucas had a sister who, after marriage, traveled the world with her husband. Could this girl on the phone be his sister, then?

"Yeah, do you know me? Can you tell me your name? It would be easier for me to let Lucas know who's calling," Melody asked tentatively. The feeling of the other person knowing her while she remained unaware of their identity was quite uncomfortable.
