The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2755
"Who are you accusing of spreading rumors? It's not a rumor when the evidence is there. And you can't stop me from talking about it! A lot of other people are talking about it too!
"Besides, you brought this upon yourself. It's not my place to say all this if your mother is alive, but she died young, and it's now my mother's responsibility to find a suitable match for you. You probably won't understand if you haven't experienced a mother's care before. I pity you, really," Sadie retorted proudly. She knew that she was superior to Rita in that aspect.
Rita's demeanor suddenly shifted in the next moment, and tears streamed down her cheeks. She typically remained emotionally composed, but her falling tears accentuated her delicate features and made her look even more fragile.
Sadie frowned and wondered what Rita was planning when a voice echoed from upstairs.
"Is that how you're supposed to speak to your sister?" Vince's stern voice pierced through the tension.
Sadie trembled and turned around to see Vince standing there. That was when she realized what Rita was playing at.
"Dad, you're home early," Sadie greeted with a forced smile.
Karen stood beside Vince with a similarly sour expression and tried to hold Vince's arm as they went down, only to be met with Vince's rebuff.
"Please believe me, Vince. Sadie can be impulsive, but she means no harm. She's been in this household for so long! I'm sure you understand her character."
"I can't say I fully understand my own daughter, let alone someone else's," Vince replied, and his remark left Karen thoroughly crestfallen.
"What do you mean by that, Vince?" Karen shifted to a pleading tone. "I've put in so much effort in this household, treating your daughter as my own and fulfilling my duties as a mother. None of that was good enough for you, was it?
"Rita probably won't be able to warm up to me at her age, but am I to blame when I'm the stepmother? You said you accepted us as your family despite other people's judgment, but do you know that I face the same pressure too? Do you know how many times people refer to me as Rita's stepmother when I'm in public?"

The readers' comments on the novel: The Day I Kissed An Older Man
This book is a good book, but it’s too short. I hope it has a part two👍🏾...
This book is getting boring now. I loved Jeremy, Corinne, Sonny and Lucas. The story needs to end. or bring back more of Jeremy, etc....
I haven't skipped any chapter at all. Though the story is good, it keeps going back to base one. I think this has no ending at all and somehow after reading more than 2500 chapters it's kinda tiring already. They have drained all the thrills....
Great writing! I almost cried when Helen hit Melody! So sad! 😭 can’t wait to see how the relationship with her and Lucas develops though. So tired of the repetitive problems with different people....
Yikes my body tenses so much, my moods change as the scenes change. It leaves me wanting to continue reading....
my heart breaks for melody, so many ups and downs, i shed a few tears when lucas walked by melody carrying thalia, and melody stayed quiet while watching them leave. i find myself getting into character as if im one. i dont remember ever feeling like that in any other books. im thankful the 10 chapters/day. waiting for the next 10...
We have updated progress from 7 chapters/day to 10 chapters/day.<3...
i love grandma Beatrice, there needs to me more people like her in the world straight forward and to the point, no beating around the bush and worrying about offending anyone, why pretend to be someone your not....
looking forward to more chapters, The same thing is happening to Melody as what happened to Luna, if Luna was back maybe she would set Lucas straight, can't wait to see how Lucas handles the situations that will arrive. Poor Melody....
ya Lucas pay more attention to Melody lets see what happens waiting for more chapters thanks...
