The Day I Kissed An Older Man

“You should’ve listened to me in the first place when I told you to confess your feelings for Jeremy. The best-case scenario is he
accepts your feelings, and the worst is he doesn’t. I don’t get why you want to first be friends with him. You’re just wasting your
youth that way!”
Even then, Sophia did not agree with her father’s point of view.
“Dad, you don’t understand! Jeremy is different from other guys. If I confessed my feelings to him straightaway, he would’ve
ignored me long ago. I won’t even have the chance to be friends with him!”
“Heh! Who cares if he ignores you? There are plenty more fish in the sea. Besides, you’re a daughter of Adam! You’ll never have
to worry about not finding a boyfriend. I’ll find you a few more guys who are even more handsome than that Jeremy!”
“How can you compare other guys with Jeremy? I don’t care, Dad. I won’t go for anyone else other than Jeremy!” said Sophia
stubbornly. “You must do something about Corinne. Get rid of her for all I care. I never want to see her around Jeremy ever
again.”
Sophia had never seen Anya as her love rival since she knew Jeremy would never fall for a fake, manipulative woman like her.
However, she never expected Corinne to come into the picture.
Initially, Sophia had no intention to kill Corinne since she worried that would make Jeremy hate her. Also, she feared that Corinne
would ever take up space in Jeremy’s heart. Jeremy would forever remember her since she died at the time when he loved her
the most.
However, Sophia did not have the luxury to care so much anymore. She felt that there would be no chance for her to get together
with Jeremy anymore if she did not get rid of Corinne.
Even though Adam did not like Jeremy because of how he treated his daughter, he could not bear to see his daughter so sad, so
he said, “Don’t worry, sweetheart. I’m going to teach that b*tch a lesson for stealing your man from you. There, there. You must
be tired after flying. Why don’t you go take a bath and rest for a bit? You can leave everything else to me.”
Sophia nodded pitifully before extricating herself from his arms and walking into the manor.
Murder flashed discernibly across Adam’s face as he stared at Sophia’s pitiful figure walking toward the manor. He then ordered
his men to get every information they could on Corinne.
...

On her way to the manor, Sophia bumped into a beautiful woman who looked to be 40 years old and a little girl of around seven
or eight years old. The beautiful woman had long hair and a kindly and graceful demeanor. Her gestures gave off a mature and
intelligent vibe.
Nonetheless, it was obvious from the way Sophia glared at her that she did not like that woman.
“Homewrecker!” Sophia spat at her.
“Oh, Sophia. You’re back,” said the woman, smiling at her as though she did not hear her insult. She turned to the little girl
beside her and said, “Lilin, your sister is back. Hurry and greet her.”
The little girl was hugging a teddy bear close to her chest. She glared at Sophia stubbornly and said, “She’s not my sister! She’s
a bad person for bullying you, Mommy!”
“Lilin, how can you say that about your sister? Apologize to her now!”
The little girl turned her head away. “No! I didn’t say anything wrong! Why should I apologize to her?”
The woman looked embarrassed and said apologetically, “Sophia, don’t mind her. She’s too young to know what’s good for her.
I’m going to reprimand her and make her apologize to you later.”
Sophia scoffed. “Oh, please. You can drop the act. She wouldn’t have said all those things if you hadn’t taught her. You know
what? I don’t care if she doesn’t want me as her sister, because I don’t want her as my sister as well!”
