The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2257
"Is that really what you think? Look at me, and then look at yourself. Do you truly believe that if you were in my shoes, you could achieve the same level of success as me?" asked Lucas bluntly.
The reason he had achieved his success was because he had put in efforts far beyond the average person.
When he started his own business, he did not even use the Rivera name. People did not even know his real surname, so how could he have leveraged his family's influence?
After successfully establishing his own company, he returned to his family to inherit the family business, and he further increased the company's stock value with his own company.
Not every heir or heiress could achieve what Lucas accomplished. He dared to speak that way because he had the confidence to back it up. Through his own hard work, he had garnered so much influence in the business world that a word from him could cause ripples across industries.
Thus, Lucas looked down on men like Roland, who only knew how to get what he wanted through hurting vulnerable women. He would not have bothered talking to him if it were not for the need to find out who harmed Melody. He sincerely believed that men like Roland were the scum of the earth.
"Bullsh*t. Stop flattering yourself. If I had that kind of wealth, I could definitely achieve the same success."
Roland cussing out at Lucas was probably the highlight of his entire life. In ordinary circumstances, he would not even dare to raise his head to look at a prominent figure like Lucas, let alone speak so boldly.
However, with Penny as his hostage, he felt empowered to be as audacious as he wanted.
Monica was on edge, fearing any slip-up that might harm Penny. She dared not provoke Roland and tried to smooth over the situation, saying, "Roland, don't listen to him. Everyone's circumstances are different, so it's only normal that not everyone can be as outstanding as him."

The readers' comments on the novel: The Day I Kissed An Older Man
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...
