The Day I Kissed An Older Man

"Since that's how you feel, there's nothing more to be said. But you better remember the lesson from last time and stop flirting with taken men. The people here aren't people you can afford to cross," said Thalia.

After greeting important guests, Lucas approached Cedric and whispered, "Grandma and Melody have been upstairs for a while. I'll go up and check on them. Grandpa, remember not to drink anymore. I'll have someone bring you some water instead."

Upon hearing the first half of what Lucas said, Cedric nodded. However, his expression darkened when Lucas moved to confiscate his drink. It was the rare chance he could drink, especially since Beatrice was not around, yet even this little privilege was being taken away by his grandson.

Ignoring Cedric's resentful glare, Lucas insisted that he should be more careful at his age. Lucas ascended the stairs in a few strides and gently pushed open the door to find Melody delicately massaging Beatrice's head.

"Shh..."

Melody immediately gestured for him to lower his voice when she saw Lucas entering the room. It seemed that Beatrice was indeed feeling the weight of her age. Just engaging in a conversation downstairs had left her exhausted.

The thought saddened Lucas, which was evident from his frown. His grandparents were growing older with each passing day, and time's passage was something he could not stop. He sat quietly beside Melody, his gaze filled with concern as he looked at the strands of white hair riddling Beatrice's head.
