The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Chapter 1081

Corinne was not hungry at all since she had eaten before she came. However, at that moment, she was willing to

do anything to get Mother Kalista out of her sight.

“Of course not, Mother Kalista. I’m actually looking forward to your cooking!”

Only then would Mother Kalista leave her alone with Mother Cathrina, which was what Mother Cathrina wanted.

After Mother Kalista left the hall, Mother Cathrina pulled Corinne to sit down. “Corinne, why did you come back so

suddenly? Did something happen?”

Corinne was touched by her question. ‘Only people who care about me will ask me that,’ she thought.

She quickly shook her head. “Don’t worry, Mother Cathrina. Nothing happened. I was just in the neighborhood, so I

thought I’d drop by to visit you.”

Mother Cathrina nodded with relief. She then asked, “How’s the investigation on your mother going?”

Corinne had told her about Emily in the past, so Mother Cathrina knew why she worked so hard over the years.

Corinne shook her head ruefully. “I still have no idea whether she’s dead or alive. However, I managed to find my

brother and grandparents.”

“Oh? How are they doing? Did you tell them who you are?”

“No. They abandoned me and my mother, so I never want them to find out who I am.”

“Corinne, you really remind me of myself when I was young. Maybe that’s why I couldn’t stop worrying about you all

these years.”

Corinne was surprised to hear Mother Cathrina talking about the past. She did not really know what happened to

her back then. All she knew was that Mother Cathrina was a wanderer who happened to stumble into the convent

and, after receiving permission from the abbess, became a nun.

However, for some reason, the abbess did not allow her to be fully professed.

“The fact you can’t forgive them means you still care about them.”

“Tell me, Mother Cathrina, have you forgiven all the people who hurt you in the past?”

“No. I haven’t.” After a pause, she said, “I have a son whom I miss very much.”

Corinne was a little taken aback. This was the first time she heard Mother Cathrina ever mentioning her son. “How

old is he now?”

“He should be thirty years old this year. I wonder how he’s doing now and whether he has his own family.”

“Didn’t you ever think of going back to have a look?”

“What’s the point of doing that? Plus, I don’t ever want to see his father again.”

“You mean your ex-husband? Why not?”

“He has betrayed me countless times. Trust no men, Corinne. They’re all liars.”

“Isn’t that a bit extreme? I’m sure there are some honest men out there. Take, for example, me!” remarked Jason

as he walked into the hall.

“And you are?” asked Mother Cathrina.

“He’s an acquaintance of mine,” chimed Corinne before Jason could say anything, prompting him to look at her

speechlessly.
