The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 777
Francine scoffed and muttered to herself, âShe might as well continue with the threats instead of
pretending to be forgivingâ¦â
Corinne turned to look at the mess on the floor. âI wouldnât have asked you to clean up the house if you
didnât barge into my room and order me around. So tell me, do you now know what it feels to be forced
to do something you donât like?â
Francine had lost her previous bravado, but because of her pride, she decided to stand her ground.
âWho⦠Who do you think you are to teach me a lesson?!â
âLet me ask you something. How old are you?â asked Corinne calmly.
Francine rolled her eyes. âTwenty-one. Why?â
âOkay, so youâre one year older than me, yet here you are living a life of an adult baby when you should
be doing an internship right now.â
âWhy do I need to do an internship? Only commoners need to go through an internship to find a job!
Besides, Iâm rich!â
Corinne nodded. âYouâre right. Being born into a family like yours means youâll never have to worry
about money, but what if you fall in love with someone one day? What do you think heâll like about
you?â
Francine was speechless. It was not a hypothetical question to her since she still was madly in love
with the hunk she wrote those love letters for, but he never returned her feelings. She never knew why
either.
âHow would you feel if your future husband only married you for your money? And not because of how
kind, independent, or charming you are? Which of the reasons do you think will ensure your marriage
will last long?â asked Corinne again.
Still, Francine remained silent.
âYou wonder why your brother would marry a country bumpkin like me instead of the beautiful and rich
Anya, right? I mean, she is better than me in every way.â
After thinking about it, Francine answered, âItâs because you know how to seduce my brother with your
womanly wiles!â
Instead of being angry, Corinne laughed. âYouâre just a pampered princess like Anya. You two have
nothing better to do than to revolve your whole life around a guy to the point of losing yourself. All those
plotting and scheming, only to have the poor guy hate you. Donât you know the
guys need to be the pursuers in the relationship? As for myself, I donât need anyone else to take care
of me. I have my dreams and things to do. I donât revolve my life around a guy, and that just makes him
admire and respect me more.â
Francine frowned. âSo what youâre saying is, Anyaâs mistake is loving Jeremy too much? And you donât
love him as much as Anya does?â
Corinne smiled faintly. âI donât need to prove to you just how much I love your
Francine glared at her. âHmph! Then why are you telling me all this?â
brother.â
âYouâre still young, so thereâs still a chance of you turning over a new leaf. If you donât believe.
me, you can do your research online to see how all those socialites who have nothing better than to
waste their time chasing after guys eventually end up. See how the guys theyâre involved in use them
and lose them.
âFrancine, while itâs true you have your family protecting you, you also need to learn to protect yourself.
You have to know that your brother, your mom, and your dad cannot protect you forever.â
Francine was starting to think what Corinne said was right, but she did not want to admit it. You and
your bullsh*t! What guy would want to use me if Iâm as useless as you said?â she said with a scoff.
