The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Corinne was shocked to find out Mother Cathrina had been harboring this kind of hidden agenda all along. She cleared her throat awkwardly, “Ahem! Well… I must say, that’s—”

Worried Corinne might have gotten the wrong idea, Mother Cathrina quickly added, “Don’t get me wrong, Corinne. It might look like I’m doing all this for my son’s benefit, but I’m doing it for your benefit too. I don’t want you to marry an unreliable man like I did. My ex-husband might be a good-for-nothing player, but my son is certainly not.

“Even as a little boy, he hated his father with all his guts. He even took an oath to either take up celibacy or swear loyalty to one woman alone for the rest of his life. My son is the only man in the world I feel is worthy to entrust the rest of your life to, so I had hoped you’d marry him. That way, you won’t have to endure the pain of betrayal like I did.”

Corinne never expected Mother Cathrina would one day try to set her up with her son. “I’m sorry to disappoint you, Mother Cathrina, but I already have a boyfriend…”

Mother Cathrina smiled haplessly. “Yes, I know. Though, I can’t say I’m surprised. You’re a wonderful girl, Corinne. Any man would be lucky to have you. I watched you grow up, and I have long regarded you as my child. I sincerely hope you’ll find a man you can live happily ever after with.”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…
