Kiss me tender

Startled, Melissa felt bad like pouring cold water on her face. Then she felt both cold and heartbroken. She tried to calm down and asked, "Mom, why are you asking this?"

Jenny still stared at her with sharp eyes as if she wanted to see through her. Still, she stared at her and asked, "Tell me the truth. Is that true that Colin loves you?"

Melissa kept in silence when she was facing her mother's sharp eyes. She couldn't tell a lie, nor could she admit it. She could do nothing but quietly look at her. Her heart was quivering and she didn't know how to react with her hands holding her handbag and letting it go.

Seeing her like this, Jenny seemed to be a little disappointed. She said more sharply, "Don't you know what family style is?" A person should have integrity, live upright, and cherish his/her own reputation! "Your father has been in the official field for so many years and has never done anything against his conscience.

Jenny was so sad that she bit her lips hard to hold back the sadness that was about to burst out. After a while, she continued, "When your father hear the rumor, he was too angry to say a word. He broke several glasses on the spot." Do you know how sad we were that night? "But because of your work, we didn't disturb you. I thought your father would be so quiet, but from that day on, he secretly took the pills and hid them in his clothes, then threw them away. At that time, his health gradually got worse and worse, which led to
