The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Since Lucas had spoken, Melody had no choice but to force herself to smile and say that the wedding was not urgent. "We still have plenty of time, Grandma. There's really no rush for the wedding." Beatrice could not help but feel sorry for Melody. Which girl did not long for her wedding? It was not like the Riveras were poor, so why not have the wedding?
"Lucas, put down your phone. You're rarely home, and when you are, you spend two-thirds of your time on that stupid phone. What's there to look at anyway?"
Melody saw that Beatrice was really angry, so she quickly stepped in to ease the situation for Lucas. "Grandma, maybe there's a lot going on in the company for him. With great power comes great responsibility, and it's not good to ignore others' messages."
"He shouldn't bring his work home! This has been a rule in our family for a long time," Beatrice said with a frown. "After dinner, either go for a walk or take Melody upstairs to rest. Don't look at your phone!" Lucas could not argue with his grandmother. He put away his phone and took Melody upstairs. As they stood up, Lucas did not forget to hold Melody's hand.
After watching the young couple go upstairs, Cedric sighed and said, "Perhaps something is going on at the company?"
"Hmph. I know my grandson the best! Whatever can be solved at the company will never be brought home," Beatrice said firmly.
Cedric noticed Lucas' phone lying on the sofa. At that moment, a text message arrived, and the phone screen lit up.
[Lucas, can you come to my place? I'm really scared.]
Beatrice realized something was off. She swiped open Lucas' phone and found several messages from Stella.
[Lucas, I don't know why, but the power at my home suddenly went out...]
[It's so dark at home, and my phone is running out of battery. I'm really scared.]
[I don't know when the power will be back. Can you come and be with me?]
[Both inside and outside my house are pitch black. I feel like the darkness is swallowing me... Can you come and accompany me, please?]
'Hmph! It's that Stella again! I guess she's not going to give up unless I give her a piece of my mind! I can't believe all the words I said to her last time have gone to waste!'
Beatrice vaguely remembered that Stella and Melody work at the same film studio. She wondered what scheme Stella had cooked up while they were working.
