The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2661

The others chimed in. "Mister Shaun, since Melody has said so, why don't you have another drink? If you do, the movie will definitely do well at the box office."

"Oh please, the movie will do well at the box office even if I don't drink. Stop saying such stupid things," Shaun replied firmly.

Shaun genuinely did not want to drink with Melody as it would spell trouble for him if Lucas were to see her drunk when he picked her up. He was astute, and he had to be. Otherwise, he could not have survived in the entertainment industry for so long.

Only the young rookies dared to tease Melody, but it was fine. After all, they had worked together for so long, and naturally, they had developed a sort of closeness with each other. Moreover, they were not bad people; their intentions were good. Lucas understood this, too.

The others also wanted to have a few more drinks with Melody, but after drinking with Shaun, she only took a sip when drinking with others. She knew her alcohol tolerance was not very high.

Most importantly, she was drinking outside, and Lucas would definitely fetch her later. Although he did not say it explicitly. He did not need to, as the more time she spent with him, the better she came to know what he was thinking at any moment.

Lucas might appear aloof on the surface, but deep down, he was the type to get jealous very easily. He wanted to accompany her to the celebration party, but Melody thought it would just be a gathering of the staff eating and drinking together. If he went, everyone would feel uneasy, so she turned away his suggestion.

Lucas' face immediately fell at the refusal. "Is it because you think I'll embarrass you if I go?" Lucas sulked, almost pouting, and Melody could not help but laugh at his question.

"Why don't you just admit that you don't want me to pick you up either? Don't you want our relationship to be known to the public?"

Lucas was increasingly getting off-topic, causing Melody's eyes to widen. 'This guy's jealousing is ramping up.'

"Why would you think like that? It was a mutual agreement when we decided to go public initially. I just don't want your life to be disrupted by others. That's why I kept our appearances in public to a minimum. If you enjoy being in the spotlight, there were several magazines that wanted us to do a couple interviews for their cover page before, but I turned them down. If you want to, I'll ask Paige to tell them we'll accept the interviews."
