The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1453

Sophia shot a death glare at the gossiping girls. It was clear she was warning them to shut up.

The girls quickly shut up and looked away.

Corinne continued to lecture 'Bryan' as she carried him back. She was still very angry at him for running off.

'This kid is getting more and more out of hand and stubborn. How dare he run off by himself,' she thought.

As for 'Bryan', he just listened to her mutely. He did not apologize or admit to any wrongdoing.

Once they were back at their picnic spot, Corinne put 'Bryan' down and asked him sternly, "Aren't you going to say anything? Do you know what you did wrong? There better not be a next time."

'Bryan' stared at her with big sad puppy eyes.

Francine sighed with relief when she saw Corinne was back with 'Bryan'. "I think that's enough, Corinne. He only ran off because he liked the cartoon kite so much. I'm sure he won't run off anymore if we get him one."

Corinne could not accept her reasoning. "Even so, he shouldn't just run off without telling me. I think he's asking for a good smacking."

Francine quickly shielded 'Bryan' with her body. "Bryan, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and apologize to your Mommy now."

'Bryan' pouted for a second before breaking out in a loud sob.

"There, there. You must've been scared all alone," cooed Francine. "It's okay. It's okay. You're back with Mommy and Aunt Francine now."
