The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Corinne looked at Melinda and explained, "This is no longer about teaching
Sophia a lesson. She tried to splash acid on me earlier. I wasn't hurt, but Jeremy got injured trying to protect me. The police have taken her into custody now."
Melinda, Lilin, and Emily gasped in shock.
"How could she do such a thing?" Melinda asked in disbelief. Though she knew that Sophia had done plenty of extreme things before, attempting to splash acid on someone else was by far the worst.
Lilin scoffed resentfully. "She's capable of anything because she's confident she can get away with anything! Dad has been pampering her since she was young, so this isn't that much of a shock." Concerned about her daughter and son-in-law, Emily asked, "Are you sure you're fine, Corinne?"
Corinne sat beside Emily and assured her, "I'm not injured. Don't worry, Mom."
Emily then turned her attention to Jeremy and said, "Where did the acid hit you? Please show it to me." Jeremy walked over and held up his arm. He then reassured Emily, "It's just a minor injury. I'll be fine." Emily then held her daughter's hand and said, "All that matters is that you're okay."
Melinda calmed down and took a deep breath before approaching the couple. She expressed her regret over what happened and said with a deep bow, "Corinne... Zach- I mean, Mister Jeremy... I'm sorry fo what my stepdaughter did to you two. I hope you can find it in yourselves to accept my sincere apology."
Corinne immediately got up and held Melinda. "You don't have to bow to us and apologize, but I do hope you won't blame us for how we plan to deal with Sophia later."
Melinda shook her head helplessly and said, "I won't blame you two for your decision. Sophia is beyond redemption. The best outcome would be for her to face legal consequences and turn over a new leaf. Can I trouble you to handle things here and take care of Emily for a bit? I'll have to talk to my husband. I'm sure he'll be very distressed after learning about his precious daughter's arrest. I'm going to talk him out of making any impulsive or irrational decisions."
"Of course," Corinne said with a nod. "I'll have to trouble you to do the same and take care of my mother as well. We'll stay here for now and make sure she's safe."
Melinda wiped her tears and sighed before leaving with Lilin. Corinne had mixed emotions as she watched Melinda leave.

Emily nodded in understanding, but she still felt heartbroken for her
friend, Melinda. Corinne and Jeremy's approach to the issues was
reasonable, but Melinda would feel
distressed if anything were to happen
to Adam. Then again, it was not like Emily could tell Corinne to just forgive the people who had ruined
her life and harmed them. Visit
