The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2242
Penny sighed bitterly and took a few steps back. "I guess I was just too naive. All I want now is to expedite my exit from this industry. Once this film wraps up, I'll do as my mother advised me to and get an accounting degree. I'm not going to delude myself into thinking about a career in the entertainment industry."
Monica was rather surprised to see that Penny's usual optimism had been replaced completely by pessimism. She held Penny's arm and led her to a secluded spot.
Once they were alone, Monica asked cautiously, "Okay, we're alone now. There's no one around. Now tell me the truth. Did you discover something?"
Penny trembled and glanced at Monica with a panicked expression. "No!" she denied vehemently. "What are you talking about? I... I didn't discover anything!"
Monica narrowed her eyes. She did not expect to have pinpointed the source of Penny's jitteriness, having asked the question offhandedly. "But if that's the case, why are you being so defensive? You don't seem like yourself today, and you've been spacing out for some reason too. We're friends, aren't we? You don't have to keep everything to yourself when you're with me."
Penny forced a bitter smile. Monica was the only true friend she had in the crew. Though Monica was an actress and Penny was merely a crew member, Monica never saw her as anything less than a friend.
They grew close, and one would be forgiven for thinking that they were friends during their school days. Monica frequently held Penny's hands whenever they met on set. As a result, Monica was the only person she trusted, which was precisely why Penny could not bring herself to share what she had discovered. Otherwise, Monica would be pulled into the storm too.
"Well, I trust you, and I'm willing to tell you anything, but we're both newcomers to this industry. A lot of things are more complex than we imagine. You understand that, don't you? It's not that I don't want to tell you… Sometimes, ignorance can be a good thing!" Penny explained sincerely.
Monica might decide to risk it all and confront those involved if the information was made known to her, and Penny wanted to avoid that.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Day I Kissed An Older Man
This book is a good book, but it’s too short. I hope it has a part two👍🏾...
This book is getting boring now. I loved Jeremy, Corinne, Sonny and Lucas. The story needs to end. or bring back more of Jeremy, etc....
I haven't skipped any chapter at all. Though the story is good, it keeps going back to base one. I think this has no ending at all and somehow after reading more than 2500 chapters it's kinda tiring already. They have drained all the thrills....
Great writing! I almost cried when Helen hit Melody! So sad! 😭 can’t wait to see how the relationship with her and Lucas develops though. So tired of the repetitive problems with different people....
Yikes my body tenses so much, my moods change as the scenes change. It leaves me wanting to continue reading....
my heart breaks for melody, so many ups and downs, i shed a few tears when lucas walked by melody carrying thalia, and melody stayed quiet while watching them leave. i find myself getting into character as if im one. i dont remember ever feeling like that in any other books. im thankful the 10 chapters/day. waiting for the next 10...
We have updated progress from 7 chapters/day to 10 chapters/day.<3...
i love grandma Beatrice, there needs to me more people like her in the world straight forward and to the point, no beating around the bush and worrying about offending anyone, why pretend to be someone your not....
looking forward to more chapters, The same thing is happening to Melody as what happened to Luna, if Luna was back maybe she would set Lucas straight, can't wait to see how Lucas handles the situations that will arrive. Poor Melody....
ya Lucas pay more attention to Melody lets see what happens waiting for more chapters thanks...
