The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 867

Corinne's response took Lucas aback, but his eyes were then filled with admiration for his long-lost sister. 'The difference between her and Anya is quite stark. This is what my sister should be like—an independent woman who's not afraid to love and let go at the same time! Anya only knows how to cry and act like a damsel in distress. I must be blind in the past to not see what a drama queen she was.'

He took a deep breath before asking, "Corinne, did you come to work for me because you wanted to find out why Mom left our home with you?"

"Yup, that's right," admitted Corinne. There was no reason to hide it as everything had come to this point.

Lucas sighed. "You don't need to do that anymore. I'll tell you whatever you want to know."

Corinne narrowed her eyes and said mockingly, "You'll tell me? Hah! You're just going to tell me Mom made a mistake and was caught in bed with another man, and that's why she was kicked out of the house."

Lucas frowned. "I didn't want to believe that either, Corinne, but…I did see Mom coming out of a hotel with another man."

Corinne scoffed. "What about it? That's not proof enough. I myself have come out of many hotels with many different men. Does that mean I slept with all of them?"

Lucas' face darkened. "Don't speak nonsense like that!"

Corinne rolled her eyes. "No matter what happened back then, I'll always believe my mother isn't that kind of woman!"

Lucas was glad to see Corinne defending their mother vehemently. He nodded and said, "I believe Mom isn't that kind of woman too. That's why I've asked my men to look into the matter all these years. Though, we haven't found anything that proves otherwise."
