The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Corinne shook her head. "I don't know you, so how can I hate you? Mister Maxwell, I don't have any memory of you at all, so no, I don't hate you. But I don't like you, and I don't want to have anything to do with you."

Maxwell looked at Corinne with pain in his eyes. However, he also felt that that moment was the happiest he had been in the past 20 years.

After a moment of silence, he smiled and said, "Corinne, you and your mother are so alike. She also talks to me like that."

Corinne frowned and rolled her eyes in disgust. "Don't bring up my mother! You're not worthy to talk about her!"

Maxwell was not surprised by her reaction; Lucas also said the same thing to him before. He sighed and apologized, "I'm sorry. I..."

Corinne did not have the patience to listen to his useless explanations anymore.

"I don't want to hear any of your explanations! I only came because Sunny got down on his knees to beg me, so you should keep living for that kid's sake. Don't do anything stupid again! Think about your parents! Seriously, one would think you'd be more mature at your age."

Maxwell looked at Corinne. She was less than one yard away from him, but he did not dare to reach out and touch her.

"I'm sorry... I don't know what else I can say but that. I know I have no right to ask for your forgiveness."
