The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 68
On the ceremony stage, Ivanka Poplin, a top student in the University of New Capital City's music department, was delivering her graduation speech with her father standing right beside her. Both father and daughter were teary-eyed and filled with emotion for the four years of university life."Ivanka's father is so handsome! And he's so young too!""Ivanka is the most beautiful student on campus, so it's pretty obvious that she inherited her parents' good genes!""Whoa, Ivanka's father said he'd donate three pianos to the school's music department! They're so rich!""I really envy Ivanka's life! She has such an amazing family background, her parents dote on her a lot, and she's both pretty and smart!"Ivanka delivered her graduation speech with her father and she went down the stage feeling pride as she listened to the praise and envy of her peers.Backstage, she saw Corinne sitting quietly at the end for her turn to go on stage.According to international practice, the person w

"He's not just handsome. He has this super intimidating aura too. I bet he's the mysterious guest invited by the school."Just as Corinne was going into the concluding remarks, she felt that something was not right with how everyone responded. It was almost as if they were all staring behind her.She turned around to find out what was happening and was taken completely by surprise! 'Why is he here?!'Jeremy's thoughtful gaze glanced swiftly across her as he walked forward. His tall body stood beside her, and he reached out to raise the microphone to mouth level. His low and magnetic voice resonated throughout the auditorium as he said, "Hello everyone, I'm here as Corinne's family, and I'd like to thank the University of New Capital City for all the care that has been given to Corinne. I don't have much time right now, so I'll keep things short. I'm donating a laboratory building to the university in Corinne's name as a token of appreciation for all that the university has done for

"She's a b*tch!" Francine could not bring herself to reveal that Corinne was her brother's wife. It was a privilege she would rather not give Corinne!Her classmate felt a little awkward and did not know why Francine hated Corinne so much. "Well... Whatever it is, your family is super rich! It's amazing how you can just make donations on a whim!"The Holdens have always kept a low profile, and although everyone in the school knew that Francine was a daughter of a wealthy family, they were unaware that her family was the Holdens—an elite upper-class family. Furthermore, no one had any idea that her brother was Jeremy, the Holdens' eldest son!Francine was not in the mood to hear that sort of flattery. "Is my brother still in school?" she asked."He's probably discussing the building donation in the dean's office right now!" her classmate answered.Francine got up, rushed out of the classroom, and took out her cell phone angrily to call Richard."Hey! Didn't you say that you were g

As soon as Corinne heard someone calling her, she stopped walking and turned around.A handsome boy chased after her and was trying to catch his breath.He was a third-year student.Corinne asked curiously, "What's the matter, Chester? Is there something you need from me?"The shy boy rubbed the back of his head awkwardly and smiled sincerely as he said to her, "Congratulations on your successful graduation!"Corinne smiled. "Thanks."Chester wanted to say something else, but he noticed the imposing man beside her and asked, "Umm... Who is he?""An uncle of mine!" Corinne answered without hesitation.Jeremy was speechless to hear that.As soon as Chester was told that Jeremy was one of Corinne's elders, he immediately bowed politely and said, "Nice to meet you, sir!"Jeremy narrowed his eyes coldly. He had a gloomy gaze and ignored Chester's greeting.Chester did not seem bothered about Jeremy's presence and said to Corinne with a slight blush, "I have something to talk to y

Francine thought for a while and said, "Well, since today's your graduation ceremony, why don't we go and celebrate?"Corinne yawned. "Thanks, but no thanks. There's nothing to celebrate."Nevertheless, Francine continued to cajole her and took her arm warmly. "It couldn't have been easy for you to go through four years of university, so that's a good enough reason to celebrate! I know a shopping mall with a lot of limited-edition new fashion styles. How about we go for a walk together?"Corinne gazed down at the way Francine was hooking her arm and raised her eyebrows strangely. "You want me to go shopping with you right now?"Francine nodded eagerly. "That's right! It's not like we have anything else to do if we go home early! Why don't you come shopping with me?"Though it was rare that Francine was kind to Corinne, it would nonetheless be a positive development because she would have less trouble if she could get along peacefully with everyone at the Holdens.With that though

The disgusting blonde man grinned to reveal his soiled teeth and smiled wretchedly. "Relax, Richard! I know exactly what to do! Besides, I was jailed because I used to get involved with escort services!"The blonde guy was excited to see such a beautiful, delicious woman on the bed. He had just been released from jail the month before, and it had been years since he last touched a woman. Finding a job was already hard enough, and his lack of money meant that finding a woman was an almost impossible task!A few days ago, Richard—who was from his hometown—came to him and offered to pay him to sleep with a woman. It was such an amazing deal that he immediately agreed without hesitation. In fact, he was more than willing to sleep with such a beautiful woman for free, and he would not even mind going to jail for a couple of years because it was worth it!Francine felt nauseous when she saw how perverted that blonde guy was.Since Corinne pressed her head into the toilet and made her fee

"And what did the police say?" Jeremy said while calmly reading the weekly financial report.Tommy replied, "The police are still conducting their investigation and interrogating the suspects. There hasn't been any word yet."Such things happen every day in countries all over the world, so nothing was surprising about what happened. It was not worth all the huge fuss.Jeremy sipped his coffee and ordered, "Get the media to tone down on the reports while we wait for the results of the investigation. We'll respond to the public opinion based on the official announcement.""Understood!" Tommy nodded, but his expression soon turned less calm than before. He had to put a lot of strain on himself to utter his next sentence and say, "Sir, there are rumors that the name of the woman suspected of being an escort is...Corinne Carew.”Jeremy finally lifted his handsome face out of the financial weekly newspaper, with his gaze turning sharp all of a suddenTommy had a regretful look. "I didn

Everyone listened as a very serious voice came from the other end of the line. "Hello, this is Eastbridge Police Station. May I ask if this is Corinne's home?"Bowen looked up and glanced at Jeremy to seek his instructions. He only dared to reply when Jeremy nodded slightly. "Is something the matter?"The policeman on the other end of the line said, "If you're a family member of Corinne's, we ask that you please come to Eastbridge Police Station right now. We require your assistance to verify certain matters."The call then ended.Pamela could not bear what she just heard and slumped down on the sofa.Francine became even more frantic. "Did you hear that, Grandma? The police station just called us! The woman arrested has to be Corinne! How could she bring herself to do such a thing? She's let you down even after all the care and love that you've shown her!"Pamela was heartbroken and found herself unable to accept it.Jeremy got up, grabbed his suit jacket from the sofa, and sai

Sherman could not help but feel fearful when he recalled the incident.Rita gently smoothed his furrowed brow. "I knew you'd come to rescue me, just like all the times you did. I love you, Sherman."Previously, Rita confessed her love to him when she was groggy. At this moment, however, she was clearly awake, even sporting a faint smile on her face as she confessed.Sherman immediately blushed. "I love you, too."Rita did not stay long in the hospital; she quickly returned to the Parr family's mansion. Just as Sherman's grandparents had said, Rita did not have any major injuries, so there was no need for her to stay in the hospital that long. In fact, she might even recover faster emotionally under the care at home.Not once did Sherman bring up Rita's job, but she surprisingly resigned from New Capital Times on her own accord. It would be difficult for her to investigate cases with her current condition; not to mention Sherman had handed over the evidence to the police. The polic

"Sherman, I like you. I love you," Rita finally confessed.Sherman, deeply pained, pulled Rita into his arms. "This is all my fault. I should've looked for you quicker. I've never blamed you. All I want is to see you smile. It's enough for me as long as you're willing to let me stay by your side."You don't have to confess to me. I know it's hard for you to do that because of your family. I've seen the way they've treated you, and…"The bodyguards who had barged in with Sherman felt a bit awkward to see their company president in tears. However, the priority was to get Rita to the hospital for a check-up. Being tied up for hours could cause circulation issues, and it could be dangerous if her limbs did not regain feelings soon.In the end, they got the bravest among them to convince Sherman to let them take Rita to the hospital. Instead of letting them do it, Sherman wiped away his tears and, with ease, lifted Rita as if she was as light as a feather.Fortunately, after the hospit

With that, Karen left without looking back. She was carrying Vince's baby in her womb, so how could she pin all her hopes on Sadie? Since Sadie was obviously unruly, she would have to rely on her son.'Sadie can spend the rest of her life with Esmond since she likes him so much. God knows it had been exhausting enough to raise her. Plus, it's only fair for Esmond to take care of her since I've done my part taking care of her until now,' thought Karen.Meanwhile, the only consolation for Sherman was that Esmond did not try to put up a fight. It seemed that he still cared about his daughter Sadie.Sherman led his men to a dilapidated house. Esmond had been cautious enough to choose a rundown house situated at the end of a village.When Sherman barged in, he found Rita lying on the floor while Esmond's men ignored her. Esmond's men had followed his orders, and since he did not instruct them to do anything to Rita, they left her well alone.Before the men could react, they were surrou

Karen cried and silently knelt by Sadie's side without trying to defend herself. Sadie, on the other hand, feebly tried to explain herself. Alas. Vince refused to listen.There had been many occasions before when he had chosen to believe Karen and Sadie, but at this moment, he realized he had been terribly wrong to do that.Rita used to be so kind, understanding, and well-behaved. However, ever since Karen and Sadie moved in, Vince felt like his daughter had become manipulative, always trying to compete for attention, and stirring up jealousy in front of him.Unfortunately, it took Rita's disappearance to make Vince realize that Rita was not trying to compete for attention. All Rita wanted from him was to treat her the same as Sadie.Vince used to think that Rita should give in to Sadie more since Sadie was younger, too."Why don't you go live with your biological father since you prefer him so much? I never want to see you show your face around here anymore! As for your mother, s

Sadie was so anxious that she wanted to jump out. "Mom, don't tell me you fell for it! Why did you call Esmond? Now they all know where Rita is. You've ruined everything, again! What were you thinking?"Karen could not care less. She cried and slapped Sadie. "You nearly scared me to death! What would I do if something happened to you? I didn't raise you just to watch you die. I told you not to meet up with Esmond, so why did you secretly meet up with him? How can you ask him to get rid of Rita?"Are you out of your mind? All I want is for us to live out the rest of our lives peacefully, so why didn't you listen to me?!"Sadie was furious. Karen had stopped trying to get rid of Rita ever since she got pregnant, so how could Sadie not be angry? Rita was like a thorn in her side, and Sadie would never be happy unless Rita was dead."Don't you know I like Sherman? How could you ask me to do nothing when Rita has stolen him from me?! I was the one who liked him first. It's either Rita g

Karen wanted so badly to slap Esmond through the phone.'What good are his pompous words now? We wouldn't be in this mess now if he hadn't hit me back then! What's more, he's saying he's doing this for Sadie. But has he ever thought of what would happen to me and Sadie if he got rid of Rita? Rita's the heiress of the Russell family. Not to mention, she's married to Sherman, so that makes her owner of Parr Group too! What makes Esmond think he can get rid of Rita so easily?'Karen's breath was ragged as she said, "If you don't believe me, just listen to your daughter's screams. I can't save her now; you will literally decide her fate! Plus, I'm pregnant with Vince's baby, so even if I lose Sadie, I still have a kid—which is more than what I can say about you!"Sherman could not help but be impressed by Karen a little. Even in this dire situation, she did not forget to express her heartfelt feelings to Vince, letting him know that she was always on his side. It was certainly not an ea

"Sherman raised an eyebrow. "Don't worry, I'm sure it's just a minor injury, maybe just a finger. There shouldn't be any major issues. A sprained joint takes only a hundred days to heal, and it might take her even less time to heal if you take very good care of her while she's recuperating."Karen's heart ached upon hearing that. She lunged toward Sherman, wanting to hit him, but the bodyguards stopped her before she could get close.Vince, still worried, held Karen tightly beside him. "Calm down. I'm sure Sadie will come out unharmed if Rita's kidnapping has nothing to do with her. But if it does, then you should know very well that…"Vince's voice dropped an octave. He could not believe his daughter's disappearance had anything to do with his stepdaughter. However, he was not utterly naive.He continued, "How could a girl like her take Rita away? Even the car window was smashed. Others must've been involved. Does her biological father have anything to do with it?"Sherman nodded
The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 2931
"Yes, it's true I met up with my biological father, but it was just a one-time thing. I don't want to go back to him at all! Otherwise, I would've done it ages ago. Dad, I'm really grateful to you for taking me in and looking after me all these years. That's why I feel like you're my real father, even more real than those who share the same blood."How could you unjustly accuse me and Mom like that? Sherman is the one spouting nonsense here. He's trying to push all the blame onto us. Dad, you have to wake up and see the truth!"Karen nodded along, but her heart was racing. 'When did Sadie meet Esmond? How did Sherman know when I don't even know? Seems like Sadie does have something to do with Rita's kidnapping. I have to settle things and get Sherman out of here.'Karen never had the thought of rekindling her relationship with Esmond. The only thing she wanted then was to peacefully give birth to her son. Everything in the Russell family would eventually go to her son, and she would

Sherman detested people pointing their fingers at him when they spoke. He stood up slowly, towering over Vince instantly."You claim to be Rita's father, yet if I were you, I'd choose to shut up and stand aside. I can't believe you're scolding me for threatening Sadie when she's not even your real daughter!"Look at her guilty expression; it's clear she's involved. If you don't believe me, use your brain a little. No wonder Russell Group is declining under your leadership. It's only a matter of time before the company goes completely bankrupt!"Sherman showed no mercy, causing Vince to retreat with every word. Vince clutched his chest, struggling for breath.Karen, despite her weakness, stepped forward to support him. "How could you speak to your father-in-law like this? What has Sadie done to offend you? She has nothing but admiration for you. Plus, she's just a child. How could you treat her like this?"She went on and on, but Sherman stood his ground. Meanwhile, the burly bodyg
