The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 1977

Lucas had a good idea of the reason behind Melody's unusual behavior. He asked, "Is it really bothering you that much about the gossip of me being with another woman?"

"O-Of course not! You're overthinking! I... I don't care at all!" Melody stammered.

"Is that so?" Lucas clearly was not buying her sophistry, but neither did he expose her for lying.

Melody's eyes flickered with undisguised panic. "I just think that during the contract period, you should maintain a clean image and not be seen with other women in hotels! Otherwise, it'll be hard for me to explain it to Grandpa and Grandma!"

There was a brief silence before Lucas explained, "I know. But Stella got injured while filming today, and she had no one else to help her. I just gave her a ride to her hotel, that's all."

Melody was somewhat surprised that he bothered to explain. She met his gaze and asked, "Uh, why are you telling me this? It's not like I asked you to do that."

"Stella and I have been friends since childhood, so there are certain things I can't ignore. With that said, I don't want there to be any misunderstanding between us. The press likes to make up stories, and I've already asked Edmund to bury those false reports," he calmly clarified.
