The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Anya looked at Cedric pitifully. “Grandpa, I didn’t! Corinne made me say all those things...”
Cedric turned away in disappointment, unable to stand the sight of her. After all, she had brought nothing but shame to the
family.
Unable to get sympathy from anyone, Anya broke down into hysterics. Pointing at Corinne, she said, “This is all her doing! She’s
the mastermind behind all of this! She’s supposed to be dead, yet she’s standing there without a scratch on her!”
Both Cedric and Beatrice frowned at how unrepentant Anya was.
Corinne looked down at Anya and chuckled softly. “Without a scratch on me? Are you blind, Anya? Do you not see this thing on
my head?” she asked as she pointed to her bandaged head.
Anya frowned. If she could, she would have killed Corinne with her glare.
“Why did you pretend to be dead if it weren’t to trick me into saying all those things?!”
“You’re right,” said Corinne with a nod. “I pretended to be dead for the precise reason you just mentioned.”
Anya’s eyes lit up. She quickly turned to Beatrice and Cedric and said pitifully, “Grandpa, Grandma, Lucas, you heard what she
said! She admitted she tricked me into saying all those things.”
However, she failed to elicit the response she wanted from them. The three of them simply looked at her as though she was a
lost cause.
“You’re right, I did trick you into saying those things,” said Corinne calmly. “I made you think I was dead so you’ll let your guard
down. Only then would you be susceptible enough to reveal your real self. Miss Anya, those things you said about everybody
just now were your real thoughts, were they not?”
Anya crawled toward Corinne like a mad woman. She gnashed her teeth and screamed, “No! You set me up! You tricked me into
saying those words! This is all your fault! All your fault!”
Corinne stepped back just in time to prevent Anya from touching her. At the same time, Lucas stepped in front of Corinne and
kicked Anya away.

Anya fell face down to the floor again. After struggling to prop herself up, she continued to scream hysterically, “Did you just kick
me, Lucas? And all because of that b*tch? Hahahaha! And you say you’re not a hypocrite? Who in the world would kick their
sister to save an outsider? How am I supposed to believe you when you say you love me? You can’t possibly still think you’re a
good big brother after kicking me away!”
Lucas looked at her with both anger and chagrin. “It’s my fault for spoiling you so much that you turned out to be so horrible!
What I failed to do as a brother, I’ll let sheer experience teach you!”
He looked toward the door and said, “Officers, you may all come in now. Please take her away, and give her the just punishment
she deserves!”
Anya was shocked. ‘The police are here?’ She instinctively turned toward the door.
