The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2234

Melody smiled faintly since Lucas was essentially agreeing to her request.

However, she still looked exhausted, and after talking to Lucas for a while, she started nodding off again.

"Sleep if you're tired. I'll be here with you," Lucas said, patting her head.

In his rarely gentle gaze, Melody reminded him to let Beatrice and Cedric know she was okay.

"I'll let them know in a little while," Lucas assured her.

"No, do it now. They must be worried sick about me."

Lucas nodded, and Melody could finally fall asleep in peace.

Looking at Melody's sleeping face, Lucas could not but put a finger under her nose to make sure she was still breathing.

He feared that like before, Melody's breathing would be faint. The doctor had mentioned that when she was first brought in, her breathing was almost imperceptible.

Lucas could not imagine what his expression would have been like if he had been present at that moment.

Before this, Lucas never considered how important Melody had become to him. He finally realized he could not bear to lose her; even the thought seemed unacceptable.

"Get better soon, and then tease me all you want again, alright?" he said, his gaze tender and his actions gentle.

After watching Melody sleep peacefully for a while, Lucas left the hospital room to call his family.

"Hey, Grandma."

"Alright, good night, then. I'll be back soon," Lucas said before hanging up.

"Good night, Lucas."

After hanging up the phone, Beatrice could not help her joy. "I always said Melody is a lucky one. She'll definitely be fine!"

Cedric nodded. "Lucas and Melody both have luck on their side. They're a match made in heaven."

"Let's go. We can finally take a breather now. You were yawning earlier. Let's go lie down for a while."

Beatrice did not forget about her husband. They were not young anymore, so they needed to take care of themselves to make sure they lived long enough to spend more time with their grandchildren.
