The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2757

"Turns out she was putting up a show for Dad to see! I have to say, she's quite the performer. Living outside this past year has made her more adept at it. I wonder who she's trying to seduce with these tactics."

Karen massaged her cheeks with a jade roller. "Forget about whom she's trying to seduce. Just trust me, I'll find her a good match."

The mother and daughter exchanged a smile. "Oh Mom, you better find her a good match, but make sure Dad doesn't catch on."

"Naturally. After all, I'm a very kind stepmother. I can't afford to let gossip spread, can I?"

"With you on the case, I have nothing to worry about."

…

"Alright, everyone's gone. Why are you still standing there stiffly?" Vince sat on the sofa, brushing off nonexistent dust from his knees, gesturing for his daughter to come sit beside him.

Rita remained unmoving.

"What, do I have to formally invite you over as your father?" Vince put on a stern demeanor.

Vince was so frustrated that he slammed his hand on the coffee table several times. Rita winced, feeling sorry for her father's hand.

"Dad, please don't tell me you can't tell that someone is obviously deliberately trying to smear my name."

However, Vince became even angrier at Rita's nonchalant tone.

"Of course I can tell, but can the others? They'll only think you've been defiled by some vagrant. But you're clearly innocent, so why should you unjustly bear this? Aren't you worried for yourself? If your future in-laws see this kind of news, what will they think? Doubt will linger in their minds!"
