The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1649

Lilin intended to heed her mother's advice to speak less and avoid engaging in arguments with Sophia, but Sophia's persistent provocations became increasingly irritating. She glared at Sophia and curtly replied, "Mind your damn business!"

Sophia's expression stiffened, and she refrained from responding to Lilin. Instead, she pursed her lips and looked at Melinda, saying, "Is this how you raise your daughter? She's not afraid of you and doesn't even listen to you because you've been overly indulgent with her. I think it would be best to let Dad take charge of teaching her a lesson. It'll probably be more effective."

Melinda always tried to treat Sophia as her own daughter, hoping to be a positive influence on Sophia and encourage Sophia to accept her as a stepmother. However, her years of effort all proved unsuccessful. Sophia never treated her with respect and only pretended to be polite to her in front of Adam. Melinda could tolerate Sophia's attitude toward her, but she could not stand to see Sophia targeting Lilin continuously.

Time and again, Melinda attempted to foster a good relationship between the two half-sisters. She even made a point to teach Lilin to always respect her elder half-sister. In light of everything that happened, Melinda felt that there was no reason for her to waste her energy on that anymore. While she could accept that the half-sisters would never get along, she could not bear to see Lilin being wronged just after she had accused her daughter wrongly.

"What are you trying to say, Sophia? Will you only be satisfied if your father gives Lilin a beating?"
