The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 987

Phoebe was shocked. "Dad, you… You want us to live in the countryside?"

"Yes! Go pack your bags now, and I'll get someone to drive you two there," grunted Cedric unwaveringly.

Phoebe could not accept his decision. She collapsed to the floor in a broken heap. "Why are you treating me like this, Dad? Are you really going to kick me and Anya out of the house because of Corinne?!"

Cedric glanced at her with annoyance. "You're a really bad influence on the kids. Anya is already a lost cause, but there's still hope for Sunny. I'm sending you to the countryside to prevent Sunny from turning out like you!"

Phoebe started to sob hysterically. "Dad, you can't treat me like this! I'm still Maxwell's wife and your daughter-in-law! How can you kick me out to the countryside? I'll be the laughingstock within our social circles if word gets out about this."

Cedric had made up his mind and would not be moved by anything.

Beatrice agreed with the arrangement. Anya was in too deep with her mother to be saveable, but Sunny was still at a moldable age. Thus, Cedric and Beatrice would do anything to save him from turning out like his mother.

Seeing her tactics were not working on Cedric, Phoebe walked on her knees to Maxwell, who was sitting on the other side of the sofa. She then threw herself on his knees, pleading, "Maxwell, why aren't you saying anything? Are you going to just watch Dad kick me and Anya out to the countryside?"

Maxwell looked at her coldly. "Are you going to admit what you did?" he asked emotionlessly.

Tears streaked down Phoebe's cheek while her eyes flashed unnaturally. "Maxwell, you got to believe me when I say Anya and I did nothing of that sort! How can you choose an outsider's words over mine?"
