The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 70

"She's a b*tch!" Francine could not bring herself to reveal that Corinne was her brother's wife. It was a privilege she would rather not give Corinne!

Her classmate felt a little awkward and did not know why Francine hated Corinne so much. "Well... Whatever it is, your family is super rich! It's amazing how you can just make donations on a whim!"

The Holdens have always kept a low profile, and although everyone in the school knew that Francine was a daughter of a wealthy family, they were unaware that her family was the Holdens—an elite upper-class family. Furthermore, no one had any idea that her brother was Jeremy, the Holdens' eldest son!

Francine was not in the mood to hear that sort of flattery. "Is my brother still in school?" she asked.

"He's probably discussing the building donation in the dean's office right now!" her classmate answered.

Francine got up, rushed out of the classroom, and took out her cell phone angrily to call Richard.

"Hey! Didn't you say that you were going to make my broth—I mean, my husband, loathe Corinne? It's already been a few days now. What have you been doing all this time?"

Richard was just as helpless and began explaining, "I'll be honest with you, Missus Holden. I've been waiting at the Carew house for several days now, but I didn't see Corinne at all! I don't have a chance to do anything if I don't see her! Where did that little minx go these past few days?"

Francine thought about it and realized that Richard did not spot Corinne at the Carews because he was unaware of the truth. Corinne lived with the Holdens instead of her family, so having a stakeout outside her home would evidently prove fruitless.

"I'll send you Corinne's location. Hurry up and get things done for me by today!"

Richard was more than happy to hear that. "It'd be perfect if you can help me!"

After ending the call, a gloomy trace of resentment appeared in Francine's eyes. Ever since Corinne married into the family, neither Pamela nor Jeremy spoiled her as much as before, and they even looked down on her all the time.

Moreover, Francine's ideal sister-in-law was not a country bumpkin like Corinne but the Riveras' daughter instead—who was the epitome of a graceful lady! She had always been very kind to Francine too, and Francine would be more than willing to chase Corinne out of the Holdens simply for the sake of the Riveras' daughter!

...

Inside the dean's office, Jeremy had been invited there to discuss the details of the building donation. Once everything had been wrapped up, the dean stood up and sent Jeremy out respectfully.
