The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 2498

"Heh. You're just a substitute, you know?"

Although she did not want to mention that woman, Thalia willingly took out the photo to hurt Melody.

"Help me out one more time, sister."

After Thalia and Quinn were sent away, Melody felt relieved and went straight back to the bedroom. When she laid on the bed, Lucas followed her and walked in with a glass of milk. "Finally, some good rest. I'm so tired..."

Lucas sat next to her. "Sorry. We won't let others come to our home without permission next time. I do not know how they found out about this address."

"Forget it. I am not angry with you."

Melody did not want to talk about Thalia. Her mind had always been either preoccupied with work, or wary about having her photos taken by other people whenever she went out. Thus, unless she had to go out for classes, she would stay at home most of the time. Comment by Bella Ash: I am a bit confused about this. Could this be re-translated?

Melody felt as though she had had no time for herself at all, if she could not even have peace at her own home.

Seeing Melody hustling on the weekdays, Lucas felt distressed. Is it really necessary to go to such lengths for fans that she had never met?

Lucas thus asked about it.

Melody straightened up and answered this question seriously. "Of course you can't understand the inextricable relationship between people like us and our fans. For us, they're arguably our most important motivation.

"I enjoy acting, but without the support of the fans, I won't be able to continue no matter what. You don't know that when I was going through those things before, I thought about giving up.

"It would be fine for me to get employed somewhere else, I told myself.

"But every time I see the fans in the fan group feeling sorry for me and cheering me on, believing against the vicious rumors, I grit my teeth. No matter how difficult this journey is, twill persevere."

As she spoke, Melody's eyes became moist. Lucas held her hand and listened to her carefully.

"You know? That feeling is just...

"Some people online believed the rumors that people made about me, but there were always people who trusted me unconditionally no matter what happened.

"I was really touched. They were my flashlight that guided me through the dark.

"Of course can't equate you and

the fans on the same level. You, too,

gave me strength and confidence, but they were the driving force that supported me to go on, so I must do something for them in return.

"Moreover, this will be the first time we meet, and it may even be the only time we meet in this life, to some of them.

"It'll be hard for me to remember each of them, but to them, I'm the most dazzling existence, and I want no one to regret it."

Melody's words were very sincere.

She wanted to use everything she had to give back to those who supported her and believed in her She wanted them to know that their choice was not wrong, and she wanted to be their source of confidence.

"I'll be by your side whenever you want. Always."

Lucas' promise was equally powerful, and Melody could not help but lean into his arms.

"Ah, I love you so much. I am so glad to have found you. Since I met you, there have been many good turns in my life. You're my lucky star!"

Lucas placed the cup of milk on the bedside table, held her face, and kissed her gently.

When the two of them fell on the bed, Melody accidentally knocked over the pillow and noticed a photo hidden under her pillow.

"Huh? Who is this?"

Melody was a little curious and picked up the photo. The girl in the photo looked familiar, and Lucas recognized her at a glance.
