The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2728

Donna's eyes welled up with tears as she looked at Rita, who seemed so lost. She was at a loss for what to say. Vince had always been clear-headed except when it came to matters concerning women.

Even if he doted on Karen, he should not have elevated a daughter with no blood relation to such heights. He only had Rita as his biological daughter; they were the ones truly connected by blood. It was as if he had everything backward.

Donna felt sorry for Rita and could not bear to lay out the harsh reality to her. She simply comforted her, saying, "Silly child, I'm sure your father loves you very much. Men aren't great with words, but deep down, your father loves you dearly. Besides, you're the esteemed young lady of the Russell family, and you're his only daughter. His entire fortune will be yours in the future. Rita, your father might be acting foolish right now, but you have to believe that he truly loves you."

"Really?"

"Really. Have I ever lied to you in all these years I've been with you?"

Rita gradually calmed down under Donna's comforting words. However, just as she was about to turn and leave, she heard Sadie's raised voice coming from inside, "Didn't I tell you I have my own reasons? Why are you still asking?"

"Shh, keep your voice down!" Karen quickly pulled her emotionally charged daughter down, and she slumped onto the sofa again.

Rita waved her hand at Donna. "Donna, don't worry. I won't act impulsively anymore. You can go back now."

Donna glanced worriedly at Sadie's closed door. "Okay. I know you're all grown up and have your own judgment now. I'll get going, then. Remember you can always come find me if you're feeling sick. Don't keep it to yourself, you hear?"

She also could not help but wonder why Sadie was so confident that Sherman would definitely agree to marry her as long as Vince proposed the match.

'Sherman? So I was right. Sadie fancies Sherman for his looks. I wonder what her reaction will be once she finds out Sherman has someone else in his heart," thought Rita with a smirk.

She quickly came up with a plan to use this information to her advantage.

Meanwhile, the conversation inside Sadie's room continued. Karen could not understand why her daughter refused to share this so-called 'insider information' with her, while Sadie could not understand why her mother refused to take care of the matter first before asking her for an answer. After all, it was not like she was trying to hide anything.
