The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 2311

Not to mention, Melody was very angry. She had called out to Thalia so many times, and she should have heard her. All that, and Thalia turned a deaf ear. In other words, she was intentionally causing trouble for them!

Melody felt weak. She slowly slid down to sit on the ground before she lifted her injured foot.

"I hope Grandpa and Grandma find me soon. It really hurts..."

With Lucas fully focused on Thalia, Melody could only rely on Beatrice and Cedric. Compared to Lucas, she felt that those two elderly people cared more about her.

Lucas had no idea that Melody had also followed into the forest. Otherwise, he would never have left her alone to go with Thalia.

However, as fate would have it, he passed by Melody while carrying Thalia on his back.

Once Thalia was found, the journey back along the same path was much smoother, and it did not take much time for them to reach the outside. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

As they approached the exit, they could see Cedric and Beatrice in the distance.

"Grandpa, Grandma! It's getting dark soon, and the temperature is dropping. You two should hurry back. I've already found Thalia," Lucas said as he approached. However, he was surprised to see both Beatrice and Cedric looking grim.

"Why did you come back alone?" Beatrice's heart sank when she saw Lucas carrying Thalia on his back without Melody in sight. "Where's Melody? Didn't you see Melody?" Lucas's relaxed expression disappeared entirely, and his hand even trembled slightly, almost dropping Thalia.

"What do you mean, Grandma? Wasn't Melody outside with you? Did she also go into the forest? But I hadn't seen her at all!"

Beatrice hastily grabbed her husband and started heading back into the forest. They had to find Melody themselves.

Lucas immediately set Thalia down, disregarding her injured ankle, and rushed to stop them.

"Grandma, what are you planning to do? How can you go back in now? It's almost dark! Wasn't Melody waiting outside with you? What happened? Why did she go in too?"

Beatrice turned back with anger in her eyes. "What else could it be? She went in to look for you, of course! Why would Melody leave us behind and run in if she wasn't worried about your safety? She wasn't even with any search team. Now you're back safely, but Melody is missing!"

Lucas' expression darkened as if facing a formidable enemy, but he still urged his grandparents to stay put.

"She knew to stop me from going in, so why did she go in herself? Grandma, Grandpa, you two wait outside. Thalia may have sprained her ankle and needs someone to take care of her. I'll go find Melody!"

Beatrice rolled her eyes dramatically and angrily pounded Lucas. "What are you saying? Thalia caused all this trouble, yet you're blaming Melody? If it weren't for worrying about you, how could she have taken such a risk? Not only are you not worried about her, but you're also blaming her now. Do you know how hurt Melody will be if she hears you blaming her?"

Lucas realized he had spoken out of haste and stopped arguing.
