The Day I Kissed An Older Man

"Rather than letting my grandparents and parents be sad just to please you, why not put on a little act for them to reassure them?"

Rita immediately shot back, "That's not what I mean, and I'm not just trying to please myself. One lie leads to a thousand more lies to cover it up. Yes, we've managed to deceive them today, but how long do you think we can do that? Do you expect us to live as a fake couple for the rest of our lives?"

Sherman glanced at her indifferently, his eyes clearly indicating that as long as it made his family happy, what was the harm?

"You... You're unreasonable. Lies can't become reality, nor can we lie for the rest of our lives. I just think we should stop lying to them while they're not too deep into it yet. This way, we can spare everyone future pain."

Especially for Rita, who had not felt much warmth at home. She was afraid she might develop unwarranted feelings for Sherman's family since they were such loving people.

"I know what you're thinking, but don't forget that you were the one who said you wanted to repay the money my family loaned your family. So how can you complain so much when I'm only asking you to do something so simple? How can I count on you to repay the debt? You might as well just tell me to take my losses. You've really got it all figured out, haven't you, Miss Rita?"

As aggrieved as she felt, Rita decided to stop arguing. After all, her father was the cause of all this. "Fine, it was foolish of me to suggest such a stupid idea. Just pretend I didn't say anything. Just tell me what you want me to do, and I'll act accordingly."

Leaning against the car window, Rita looked so small despite wearing such a large coat. Naturally, the two did not stay in the same place together. Sherman simply dropped her off at her apartment.

After getting out of the car, Rita did not leave immediately. She watched Sherman's car disappear from her sight, feeling uneasy. She did not know if she was doing the right thing, but it was the only feasible way if she wanted to regain her dignity in front of him.

Sherman's marriage had already made headlines on the Parr Group's official website. It quickly became hot topic online since no one expected him to marry so early for his age. Moreover, his wife had not been revealed yet. Who could she be?

[Is it Claire? There were photos of them together before.]

[It's very likely. Maybe the last time was just setting the stage for this marriage!]

[Oh, you fans should stop being so full of yourself. If Claire is Sherman's wife, she would've sent dozens of paparazzi to stake out at the city hall long ago.]

After this comment was posted, many social media users joined in the mockery.

After the last swift action by Parr Group's legal team, everyone could see that Sherman did not want anything to do with Claire.

No one knew what methods Claire had used to get the paparazzo to take photos of them together.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

However, Sherman's methods were also swift and decisive. Anyone who dared to leak that photo would face immediate legal consequences.
