The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1458

"I'm not talking nonsense! I really don't have a brother," said 'Bryan' with a pout.

Corinne became really angry. "Bryan, you've been a really naughty boy today. Mommy's not going to like you if you keep on being like this!" she said sternly.

'Bryan' panicked when he saw the disappointment in Corinne's eyes. He grabbed her hand and pleaded, "No… Don't hate me, Mommy…"

He actually did not find it hard to call her 'Mommy'. It was also the first time he called any woman that.

Sophia would keep reminding him to call her 'Mommy' at home, but for some reason, he could not and would not.

His submission did not make Corinne's anger disappear, however.

"Go apologize to Joey now! You've really made him sad, do you know that?" lectured Corinne sternly.

Bryan pouted and walked over to Joey. "Sorry, Joey. Please don't be angry. I promise I won't say things like that anymore…"

Joey raised his head and smiled forgivingly at 'Bryan'. "I'm not angry, Bryan. You and Christine will forever be my favorite people in this world."

He then hugged him. "Mommy said we're all one big family, so we have to take care of each other no matter what."

'Bryan' was not used to being hugged by a stranger, but he felt a warm, fuzzy feeling in his heart when he felt Joey's sincerity.

Being an only child, Benjamin was not taught by his parents how to get along with his 'siblings', and he did not have much contact with kids his age. In fact, most of his time was spent playing alone by himself.

'So this is what it feels like to have a brother,' thought Benjamin.

Corinne finally smiled after seeing the two boys made up with each other.

"Alright, you two get into the bathtub now. Great-grandma will be calling us down for dinner soon," she said.
