The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Raymond might not even have had the chance to work for the Riveras if it were not for his mother already working there as a cook. Thus, he was very grateful to the Riveras.
He had heard his mother say many times about the difficult times when she was pregnant with him and was abandoned by his father. They might have ended up starving on the streets if Beatrice did not take them in.
Lucas drove Melody straight to the hospital, to the same VIP ward, with the same doctor. The doctor was just as surprised. Melody had not even been discharged for a day, yet she was back already. The doctor frowned when he saw the large swelling on Melody's foot as she lifted it.
"How did this happen? I'm really concerned as to how you're constantly getting injured, Missus Rivera. You really need to take care of your own body. Although you're young, you still need to take good care of yourself."
Lucas frowned deeply when he saw the bruised area on Melody's otherwise pale skin. He had not noticed the extent of Melody's injury in the forest earlier, which explained why he felt her trembling slightly when he carried her.
He thought it was due to the temperature dropping; it was only then he realized she had been enduring pain all along.
"Please help me check whether it's just a sprain or a fracture," Melody urged anxiously.
She wanted to get back to the set as soon as possible. At that critical moment, she could not afford to stay home to recuperate just because she had a fracture.
She had heard that recovering from a bone fracture would take about a hundred days. That meant she would not be able to go to the set for three whole months!
Lucas immediately knew what Melody was worrying about. He was angry with Melody, but more so with himself.
'Why didn't she say anything if she was in so much pain? I can't believe she'd rather endure the pain than tell me! But if I hadn't scolded her earlier in the afternoon, would she have followed me into the forest? No, even if I hadn't scolded her, she would still have followed,' thought Lucas.
He knew all too well how kind-hearted Melody was.
At that time, she made him wait because she was worried about his safety.
Waves of regret washed over Lucas. He regretted hurting Melody with his careless words and doubting her character despite knowing what kind of person she was.
'She must be so disappointed,' he thought.
Melody kept her head lowered, staring at the doctor's hands examining her ankle, afraid to hear the answer she did not want to hear.
"Does this hurt?" asked the doctor.
