The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Chapter 1603
Sophia grabbed Bryan and pulled the painting from behind him. She then pushed
him away and examined the painting. As she laid eyes on the artwork, she came
to realize that it was just an ordinary landscape painting.
Bryan was infuriated after his painting was snatched away. He attempted to jump
up and reclaim it, but Sophia's taller stature made it impossible for him to reach it.
He yelled, "Give it back! Give that painting back to me!"
Sophia turned the painting over to see if there was anything out of the ordinary
on the back, but the painting was rather normal like before. However, the irate
expression on Corinne's child delighted her greatly, and she deliberately withheld
the painting from him to revel in his misery.
Their commotion eventually caught the attention of Adam, Melinda, and Lilin.
"What's happening, Sophia? Why is the boy making such a fuss?” Adam asked
sternly as he came out of the room with his hands behind his back.
Sophia smiled at her father and explained, "Don't worry about it. He insisted on
running out on his own, and he got upset when I tried to stop him."
Melinda looked sympathetically at the profusely sweating “Benjamin’ and waved
to him. "Come here, Benjamin. You shouldn't run off on your own. I'll put on some
cartoons for you, okay?"
Bryan never took kindly to Sophia, and he was never going to consider Adam
and Melinda as his grandparents. He ignored Melinda's invitation and continued
to jump and reach for the painting in Sophia's hand, demanding, "I don't want to
watch cartoons! I want my painting back; give it back to me!"
Melinda was not angry at him-just helpless.
Adam, however, was peeved by what he perceived as the child's lack of respect.
He grumbled, "Is this how Zachary spoils his children? Not even an ounce of
manners! Does he usually behave like this with you?"
Sophia sighed a little dejectedly. "I'm used to it, Dad, but he's not acting out
because of Zachary. Zachary is very strict with him, but I wonder just where he
inherited this rebellious streak from.”
Adam immediately recalled the child's origin from Sophia's last sentence and had
a newfound repulsion for him. There was nothing likable about someone who
was clearly not of his blood.
At that moment, Lilin came forward and defended her nephew, "I think Benjamin
is a very good boy. He's not as stubborn as you say he is."

Sophia glanced at Lilin in disdain and
retorted, "How well do you know him,
anyway? You've barely even spent
anytime with him. ee seen I
bo stitutes usually?" "I

ight not know what his attitude is
like most of the time," Lilin began,"
but I know that he's upset right now
because you took away the painting
that I gave him. Of course he'll throw
a tantrum if you don't return his
belongings!" The content is on

Adam and Melinda were immediately drawn to the rolled-up painting in Sophia's
hand. Sophia was holding it high to keep it out of “Benjamin's’ reach, and
“Benjamin’ was jumping desperately to try and take it back.

Sophia looked at Lilin and said with a
smile, "See, this is another one of our

grew deeper. No mother would

Sophia's selfishness was an
inextricable part of her that did not

child. The content is on
