The Day I Kissed An Older Man

"It's not like you don't know how much I've sacrificed for this family. And yet, you're blaming everything on me even though it's Rita's fault for getting herself into this situation. I know my last name isn't Russell, but haven't I done enough to be considered part of your family?"

Vince embraced Karen and patted her back. "Alright, I shouldn't have been so harsh. I didn't mean what I said. I was just very worried about Rita. But can you stop making a fuss for my sake since there's an outsider here?"

Karen finally stopped crying after that, but her lips were pale, making her look weak.

"You don't look too well. You should get yourself checked too when we send Rita to the hospital." Vince then turned to his stepdaughter. "Sadie, come help your mother." However, Vince did not expect Sadie's attention to be fully focused on Sherman. She was watching him intently as if she was afraid to miss any of his expressions. Sherman noticed her gaze but chose not to engage with her. Sadie's stare made him uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Vince understood Sadie's intentions very well. 'So that's why she came to Sherman's defense. Pity that she doesn't see that he doesn't care about her at all.' Throughout the whole ordeal, Sherman did not even spare a single glance at Sadie.
