The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2172

"Don't worry, I've learned my lesson."

The atmosphere in the crew was chaotic. Many of the members caught up to Shaun to ask him about the latest development and whether Stella really did the crime.

"Go do your work. Didn't you see the police officers who came? Or is your brain not working properly?"

The person who asked chuckled and replied, "I wanted to confirm with you, just in case I misunderstood the whole situation again."

Shaun waved his hand. "Alright, enough talking. Stella did it, just know that. And don't bother with other things."

The commotion continued, and everyone was still engrossed in this significant turn of events. They would not quiet down at all.

Lucas frowned impatiently. He walked over to Melody, and just as she was about to ask him something, he asked her, "Are you hungry?"

Melody was testing Lucas' attitude. She was uncertain whether she was important enough to Lucas, considering the long-standing relationship between him and Stella, who had been his childhood friend for so many years.

Lucas nodded. "I went out yesterday afternoon because of this matter. I didn't tell you because I was afraid it would worry you. I wasn't sure if I could get any evidence."

Lucas' tone was calm as if all of it was as simple as attending a meeting at the company. Only Melody knew what he had sacrificed.
