The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 2297

Melody did not immediately head upstairs when they arrived at the hospital. Lucas spent some time with her downstairs for a stroll to help her digestion. She indulged herself with a few extra pieces earlier because of the rather plain food she had been eating recently, so she ended up feeling a little uneasy as a result.

"You can always have some more next time. Why'd you have to eat so much at once and make yourself feel bloated?" Upon seeing her discomfort, Lucas contemplated asking the doctor to prescribe her some medicine.

Melody rolled her eyes at him. "Couldn't you see how happy Grandma was when she saw me enjoying my food? I finally get the chance to go home, and seeing them being so welcoming to me helps a lot in improving my appetite."

"Are you implying that you tend to lose your appetite when I'm the only one around?" Lucas gritted his teeth, feeling a little irked that she did not seem to appreciate how challenging it was to take care of her amid his busy schedule.

Melody was caught off-guard by that sudden question. "Why would you think that? I'm not ungrateful. You've spent so much time rushing over to take care of me that you've lost a little weight. I can see that pretty clearly, you know? It'll be my turn to take care of you when I'm back tomorrow. You just need to worry about work. I'll spend more time with Grandpa and Grandma too."

"They have Thalia at home now. You don't need to worry too much. You should be more concerned about yourself," Lucas answered.

Melody's smile faded. They had known Thalia for a long time, so there was no need for an outsider like her to interfere. "You're right. I shouldn't be in over my head about this. Thalia can take good care of them at home, and they have plenty of servants too. I shouldn't worry so much about them."

Lucas frowned after hearing what she said. A sense of unease came over him. He wanted to explain himself, but Melody had already walked ahead of him and left him without a chance to do so. He was not trying to tell her that her return was not important. Rather, he simply wanted her to stop worrying.

"Have you thought about when you'll return to the set? I can make arrangements if that's the case," Lucas changed the subject.

"I have, and since I'm going to be discharged from the hospital soon, so if all is well with tomorrow's test results, I'm thinking of resuming work the day after tomorrow." Lucas frowned. "Do you have to be in such a rush?" He was concerned about Melody's health, which had to fully recover.

Melody shook her head and said, "You can decide everything else for me, but let me decide when I'll return to the set. Besides, there will never be a time when everything is perfect because no amount of preparation is ever enough. I'll feel better when I return to the set."

Melody's expression softened at the thought of acting with other crew members. After all, it was her career. Lucas also breathed a sigh of relief, as she seemed to be a bit unhappy when he mentioned Thalia earlier. He was not so dull as to be completely oblivious to that.

At around eight, Lucas suggested that they head upstairs together. If they continued walking, Melody's body might not be able to bear the cold.

"Okay."

When the report came out the next day, the doctor confirmed that there were no issues, which allowed Melody to breathe a sigh of relief. "Does that mean I can go home now?" she asked excitedly.
