The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 875
“Don’t worry, she won’t dare do anything to me. Though, I’m afraid I need to keep an eye on her, so can you please ask the
servant to bring my breakfast to me?” said Corinne softly.
Bowen nodded. “Certainly. I’ll ask the servant to bring it right away. And umm... Ma’am? Let me know if Miss Francine is acting
up again.”
Corinne gave him an OK hand gesture before closing the door.
Francine had just completed a few pages of the questions by the time Corinne finished her breakfast. Instead of rushing her,
Corinne simply sat on the other end of the sofa and played on her phone.
It was noon in the blink of an eye, and Francine finished the questions on the last page before she handed the practice book to
Corinne to check. “I’ve finished! Let’s see how you try to back out of your promise now.
Corinne put down her phone and took the practice book. A smile quickly appeared on her face while she flipped through the
pages.
Francine frowned unhappily. “What are you smiling about?”
Corinne shook her head. “Seems like I’ve overestimated you.”
“What are you talking about? Go on, just give it to me straight!”
Corinne threw the opened book onto the table. “I should have started you off with the practice book meant for a third-grader
instead of a practice book meant for a fifth-grader.”
Francine was shocked, but that soon turned into anger. “Corinne Carew! Are you telling me I only have the IQ of a third- grader?”
Corinne rubbed her chin. After thinking the question over, she answered, “No. I think it’s more accurate to say you have the IQ of
a second-grader. It took you the whole morning to complete the questions in the book, yet you didn’t even get any of them. right.
You lack even the basic math knowledge that an elementary kid would have. This makes me wonder what you’ve been doing in
school all this while, Francine.”
Francine angrily stood with arms akimbo. “I don’t believe you! I must’ve gotten at least one right. You’re just trying to get out of
buying Hermes bags for me! Don’t make promises like that if you don’t plan on keeping them!”

Corinne remained unfazed. “We can take photos of the pages and send them to your college friends to check if you don’t believe
me.”
Nothing was more important to Francine than her pride, so she would never agree to that. “Why you...”
Corinne calmly handed her a tablet. “Learn this if you don’t want your friends to think you’re stupid.”
“What’s this?”
“I’ve downloaded a learning app for you. You can redo those questions after listening to the lessons there. My promise of buying
you ten Hermes bags if you get at least half of the correct still stands after this.”
“Are you teaching me how to do things?”
Corinne raised her eyebrow. “I’m teaching you how to do math. And if you’re not willing to learn from me, I can always ask your
brother to come home to teach you. But...he might get very angry at you once he finds out you can’t even do math at the
elementary level.”
Francine was beyond annoyed, but she would rather take Corinne over Jeremy any day. She knew Corinne was the type to
make good on her threat, however, so she forced herself to take the tablet, put on the earphones, and listened to the lessons.
Due to how powerful her family was, no one in her elementary school dared to discipline Francine. Thus, she spent all her school
days playing around, which was why she lacked even the basics in subjects like math and science.
In the end, her academic score was so bad that the family had to use their influence to get her into high school and college.
She knew she was not good at studying, but that did not seem to worry her since her family was wealthy enough to ensure she
would never have to work a day in her life.
‘Why should I waste my time studying all this useless stuff? D*mn you, Corinne! She must be mental to make me do this,’ she
thought.
After listening to the lesson for an hour, Francine rubbed out all the wrong answers in the book so she could redo the questions.
