The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 2644

Many of Melody's fans noticed the well-dressed man sitting among them in the fan group. None of them expected the Rivera Group's dignified president to sit alongside common folk like them. Most company presidents had bodyguards stationed all around them, or at the very least seated in a private room. He chose to sit among the fans instead.

Melody had considered seating him farther away from the fans so he could watch her from a more exclusive position in the audience. He, however, refused. He believed that those in the front row had the best view of her, which made Melody blush a little.

"I'm worried that someone might recognize you if you sit with them. And it might be too loud for you too. What if someone who doesn't like you tries to hit you secretly and take you down?" Melody asked, concerned.

Lucas raised an eyebrow. "Do you think I'm that unpopular among your fans? Or are you implying that none of your fans like me?"

"Umm..." Melody pouted. "It shouldn't be surprising if they don't like you. After all, I married you just as I entered showbiz, and a lot of my fans were pretty sad because of that. They think that I'm still young and that I shouldn't tie myself down when I still have so many opportunities ahead of me."

She then continued, "It's pretty amusing, if you ask me. They advised me not to fall too deeply in love with you because you might just be playing with my feelings. They told me to think like a man, play with your feelings, then leave you and add you to my list of exes. Apparently, it'll make it easier for me in the entertainment industry."

Lucas's face was filled with disbelief. He had not expected Melody to learn such things from her fans.

Melody's mischievous smile prompted Lucas to pinch her cheek. "Can't you say some nice things about me to them?"

Melody stuck out her tongue. "They'll hate you even more if I defend you. I want you to exist in harmony with. them, but I know that they're also genuinely concerned about my own well-being. Being with you made them sad enough. I don't want further upset them, so I'm sorry that I't have to put you in a bit of a tight spot. I know what kind of person you are after being with you for so long. Now that you know that I have lots of fans, you have to be careful too! If you do anything to hurt me, then..."

Melody raised her fist at him in jest, but Lucas caught it in his hand and pulled her close to kiss her.

"I'm glad that a lot of people like you, and I understand their concerns too. They're keeping me in check on how I treat you. As long as I treat you sincerely, they will come to terms with me. You don't have to worry, and you don't have to go out of your way to paint me in an extra good light either. We all knew what we were getting into when we chose to be together, didn't we?"

"Yeah..." Metody was caught slightly off-guard by him. In reality, she found that she had it the hardest when it came to being herself. She always felt that she did not live up to the expectations of her fans.
