The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Chapter 1453

Sophia shot a death glare at the gossiping girls. It was clear she was warning them to shut up.

The girls quickly shut up and looked away.

…

Corinne continued to lecture ‘Bryan’ as she carried him back. She was still very angry at him for

running off.

‘This kid is getting more and more out of hand and stubborn. How dare he run off by himself,’ she

thought.

As for ‘Bryan’, he just listened to her mutely. He did not apologize or admit to any wrongdoing.

Once they were back at their picnic spot, Corinne put ‘Bryan’ down and asked him sternly, “Aren’t you

going to say anything? Do you know what you did wrong? There better not be a next time.”

‘Bryan’ stared at her with big sad puppy eyes.

Francine sighed with relief when she saw Corinne was back with ‘Bryan’. “I think that’s enough,

Corinne. He only ran off because he liked the cartoon kite so much. I’m sure he won’t run off anymore if

we get him one.”

Corinne could not accept her reasoning. “Even so, he shouldn’t just run off without telling me. I think

he’s asking for a good smacking.”

Francine quickly shielded ‘Bryan’ with her body. “Bryan, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up

and apologize to your Mommy now.”

‘Bryan’ pouted for a second before breaking out in a loud sob.

“There, there. You must’ve been scared all alone,” cooed Francine. “It’s okay. It’s okay. You’re back

with Mommy and Aunt Francine now.”

Corinne hated it when kids cried to get out of wrongdoings. She sternly pulled Francine away before

grabbing ‘Bryan’ to face her. “Why are you crying? How can you cry when you’re the one who is in the

wrong? Why aren’t you saying anything? I’m going to count to three and if you still refuse to say you’re

sorry, I’m going to smack your bum.”

Instead of apologizing, ‘Bryan’ wailed even louder after that.

Corinne was at the end of her patience, and as much as the thought of smacking her own kid pained

her, she still raised up her arm. However…

Joey came running over to protect his little brother. “Mommy, don’t hit Bryan! He knows what he did is

wrong. I promise I’ll keep an eye over him next time so he won’t go running off again.”

Christine stood by the side. Her big, bright eyes were focused on ‘Bryan’, realizing something was off

about him.

Corinne was stunned by Joey’s action, but she sighed and said, “Look at what a good boy your big

brother is. When are you going to learn to be like him and make me stop worrying about you?”

‘Bryan’ pouted and stammered, “I… I want my Daddy…”
