The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 918
Marvin scratched his head in embarrassment. “Sigh! Just my rotten luck to have taken in a shameless daughter!”
Sherlyn clutched his elbow and said, “Dad, you shouldn’t get sad over that ingrate. After all, you still have me.”
“She’s right, Marvin. We still have Sherlyn! As for Corinne, the only thing we can do is hope for her to come to her senses and
pay what she owes to Josephine!”
Josephine’s mother’s act was so convincing that Pamela could not help but believe her a little. She turned to look at Corinne, not
wanting to believe the granddaughter-in-law she adored was that kind of person.
“You could say I used Josephine’s results and that I had an abortion, but if you don’t have proof... Well, I guess I’ll see you in
court,” said Corinne calmly.
“The proof is that you had an abortion a few days before the exams!”
“Where did I have an abortion? Which hospital did I do it at? Who was the attending doctor?” asked Corinne rapidly.
“As if anyone would know that many details about your dirty deeds. I bet you did it at the unlicensed clinic that closed down years
ago.”
’It closed down? Why, that’s as good as not having any proof.”
Josephine’s mother gritted her teeth and said determinedly, “Corinne, I might not have proof of your abortion, but I can prove
you’re bad at your studies and that you couldn’t have gotten into University of New Capital City by your own effort.”
Corinne raised her eyebrow. “Is that so? And how are you going to prove that?”
Josephine’s mother scoffed. “Your old high school has records of you skipping class. How can someone who skipped class so
often be good at their studies? Ma’am, you can ask someone to go check Corinne’s attendance records in our town’s high
school; you’ll see for yourself who’s telling the truth here.”
Pamela looked hesitantly at Corinne with eyes filled with mixed feelings. ’ Corinne, I...”

Corinne was speechless. It was true she often skipped class during high school, but it was not to hang out with the thugs! At the
time, she had just founded Newmoon Group and had to do everything herself since neither Xante nor Aaron could handle it
alone.
However, she mastered her schoolwork a long time ago. She never missed an exam and had been recommended to many
universities for admission. This was a known fact to all the teachers and the principal.
‘But the fact that they dare to come here today means they’ve paid off the teachers and the principal. And even if they didn’t, the
teachers and the principal might not dare to testify for me if they were put under duress,’ thought Corinne.
Josephine’s mother thought she had won when she saw Corinne being silent. “Cat got your tongue, Corinne? You know you
often skipped classes in high school, and this alone is enough proof of how bad of a student you are!” “Whether or not my wife is
a good student is not up to you to say. I alone know better than anyone else what kind of person she is!”
