The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 603
Gertrude had a repulsed gaze in her eyes, and she shook her head vigorously while saying, “I want Emily. not her... She’s not
Emily...”
Edgar frowned when he heard that and felt very puzzled ‘Why isn’t she recognizing her
Anya, who had finally gained Edgar’s trust only to face such rejection from Gertrude, could not help but feel a little quilty. She
looked up, glanced at her best friend Rosie to ask for help, and had the expression of being at a loss to beckon her best friend
into helping her.
Rosie sensed Anya’s signal for help and immediately spoke up for her.
“It’s her, Madam Gertrude! She’s the one who played Consort Aileen on stage and performed the opera, but you probably don’t
recognize her now. She’s changed into a different costume and put on a different style of makeup.
“She was going to sing another piece, which is why she’s dressed differently from earlier. Please don’t get anxious. Take a deep
breath and have a closer look.”
Edgar also calmed his wife’s agitation as he coaxed, “Yes, Gertrude! Look carefully. She was the one you wanted to meet earlier.
How could you not know what Emily looks like?”
After hearing everyone’s comments, Gertrude looked at Anya again under the guidance of her husband and stared at Anya’s
face carefully before finally being convinced.
“Emily?”
Edgar winked, motioning for Anya to say something.
Anya was smart enough to figure out that the old man wanted her to temporarily play the part of their daughter–her Aunt Emily–
to appease Gertrude for the time being.
That was exactly what Anya aimed to achieve.
As long as Gertrude relied on her like she was their missing Emily, the Lovelaces would become a stronger support for her in the
future, aside from the Riveras.

Anya’s eyes then turned red, as if she was touched by the melancholy, and then tried to hold Gertrude’s hand as she said softly,
“It’s me, Emily! I’m back, Mom...”
“Emily!”
Hearing Anya call out ‘Mom‘ transported Gertrude to the time when her daughter was still with her many years ago. Tears filled
her eyes instantly, and she held Anya’s hand tremblingly.
“Emily... My Emily... You’ve suffered so much...”
Anya leaned her head on Gertrude’s body, and the corners of her lips curled slightly in a triumphant arc.
Edgar felt sad but relieved when he saw that scene. It was a good thing that his wife was very accepting of Anya. It would be of
great help to fill her longing for her missing daughter.
Before the tear–jerking scene could end, a faint and nonchalant voice was heard.
“Excuse me, excuse me!”
Everyone was taken aback and looked at the source of the voice.
Corinne had somehow appeared and smiled calmly after interrupting them. When Rosie and Anya saw Corinne’s sudden
appearance, they could not help but feel a little vigilant.
“Why is this b*tch here?! Is she going to sabotage us again?”
