The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 777
Francine scoffed and muttered to herself, “She might as well continue with the threats instead of pretending to be forgiving...”
Corinne turned to look at the mess on the floor. “I wouldn’t have asked you to clean up the house if you didn’t barge into my room
and order me around. So tell me, do you now know what it feels to be forced to do something you don’t like?”
Francine had lost her previous bravado, but because of her pride, she decided to stand her ground. “Who... Who do you think
you are to teach me a lesson?!”
“Let me ask you something. How old are you?” asked Corinne calmly.
Francine rolled her eyes. “Twenty-one. Why?”
“Okay, so you’re one year older than me, yet here you are living a life of an adult baby when you should be doing an internship
right now.”
“Why do I need to do an internship? Only commoners need to go through an internship to find a job! Besides, I’m rich!”
Corinne nodded. “You’re right. Being born into a family like yours means you’ll never have to worry about money, but what if you
fall in love with someone one day? What do you think he’ll like about you?”
Francine was speechless. It was not a hypothetical question to her since she still was madly in love with the hunk she wrote
those love letters for, but he never returned her feelings. She never knew why either.
“How would you feel if your future husband only married you for your money? And not because of how kind, independent, or
charming you are? Which of the reasons do you think will ensure your marriage will last long?” asked Corinne again.
Still, Francine remained silent.
“You wonder why your brother would marry a country bumpkin like me instead of the beautiful and rich Anya, right? I mean, she
is better than me in every way.”
After thinking about it, Francine answered, “It’s because you know how to seduce my brother with your womanly wiles!”
Instead of being angry, Corinne laughed. “You’re just a pampered princess like Anya. You two have nothing better to do than to
revolve your whole life around a guy to the point of losing yourself. All those plotting and scheming, only to have the poor guy

hate you. Don’t you know the
guys need to be the pursuers in the relationship? As for myself, I don’t need anyone else to take care of me. I have my dreams
and things to do. I don’t revolve my life around a guy, and that just makes him admire and respect me more.”
Francine frowned. “So what you’re saying is, Anya’s mistake is loving Jeremy too much? And you don’t love him as much as
Anya does?”
Corinne smiled faintly. “I don’t need to prove to you just how much I love your
Francine glared at her. “Hmph! Then why are you telling me all this?”
brother.”
“You’re still young, so there’s still a chance of you turning over a new leaf. If you don’t believe.
me, you can do your research online to see how all those socialites who have nothing better than to waste their time chasing
after guys eventually end up. See how the guys they’re involved in use them and lose them.
“Francine, while it’s true you have your family protecting you, you also need to learn to protect yourself. You have to know that
your brother, your mom, and your dad cannot protect you forever.”
Francine was starting to think what Corinne said was right, but she did not want to admit it. You and your bullsh*t! What guy
would want to use me if I’m as useless as you said?” she said with a scoff.
