The Day I Kissed An Older Man

The couple was a little speechless after hearing Corinne's retort and could only exchange glances with each other. The man, however, appeared unwilling to come to terms with the truth. He clenched his jaw and gritted his teeth, saying, "Whatever the reasons were, your son beat up my son. He needs to apologize and take responsibility for that.

Unfortunately, Matt's parents are very influential, and I don't want you to be put in a difficult situation when it's already very challenging to raise three children on your own.
