The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2718

Sherman had no intention of taking their relationship any further. No matter what reasons Claire might have, he could not accept her doing such a thing.

"No! I don't want us to become like strangers. We could've been the most loving couple, yet you refused to forgive me for my momentary lapse of judgment. But I know, deep down, you still love me, right? Who else can get as close to you as I can? Who else can be as intimate with you?"

Claire anxiously sought confirmation of her special spot from Sherman's eyes. However, he coldly pried her fingers away from his waist.

"Claire, you are special to me, but I have a long life ahead of me, and you're not the only one who can fill it. You know? I didn't have any unusual reaction either the last time Rita got close to me."

Claire could not maintain her smile anymore when she saw how serious Sherman was. "What do you mean by that? Are you saying you want to be with that woman instead? You only met her once at my performance, and she was unreasonable. Have you forgotten all about it?"

Sherman shook his head. "Didn't you just say the interview was pleasant?"

"Yeah, but I was just trying to lighten the mood for you." Claire struggled to control her emotions. It took all of her willpower to stop herself from trembling. "You still haven't answered my question. Are you planning to be with that woman?"

"I've said before that I've forgotten about what happened before, nor do I want to remember it. Everything between us ends right here right now! If you need help with your career, you can contact Lucy. I'll definitely do what I can to help. But as for anything else, you can just forget about it!"

Claire was genuinely afraid of how cold Sherman was behaving toward her. She knew that they were on the verge of having a falling out, and it was her own fault for missing out on such a perfect man.

She regretted going abroad. She had a hidden agenda for wanting to return so quickly. She wanted to catch Sherman off-guard so that she could find out if there had been another woman by his side.
