The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1713

Adam did not want to get divorced from Melinda; he loved her too much. Otherwise, he would not have come to beg her to go back home with him!

"Mel, I know you don't like Sophia, but she's my daughter. It's not like I can get rid of her!"

"I never said that I don't like Sophia. It's her who doesn't like me. I'm not going to force her to accept me, but I'm not going to force myself to stay in a place where I'm not welcome either! Brian, I really hope you can understand why I've made this decision," said Melinda lightly.

Adam started to panic. "I don't understand! I'm not going to divorce you! We've been together for more than half of our lives, so how can you even bring up divorce?"

"Brian…"

Adam held up his hand to stop her from talking. "That's enough. You don't have to say anything else. You can either come back with me, or I'm going to move in with you here!"

Melinda frowned. "What are you talking about? Can you stop being so stubbornly childish for one second?"

"Daddy, didn't you say this place is all cramped and shabby?" chimed Lilin.

Adam waved his cheeky daughter away. "Go play in another room, Lilin. You shouldn't be interrupting when the adults are talking. So, are you coming back with me, Mel? Or should I get the servants to send my things here?"

Melinda fell silent. She really did not know how to answer him. She knew his temper, and he was the type of man who did not make empty threats. Not to mention, her old friend might come back anytime to reclaim the house.

Melinda was racking her brain trying to come up with an answer when Lilin stood up and whispered into her ear. She was stunned to hear what she said. She looked at her and gave her idea some serious consideration.

Adam glanced at Lilin. He knew he had fallen into her trap but thought she probably just came up with some embarrassing condition for him.

"Mommy, tell Daddy our condition now before he takes back his promise!" said Lilin.

Melinda stared deeply into Adam's eyes and said, "Brian, Lilin and I will go back with you if you promise you'll let Zachary go back to his real wife and kids."

Adam's expression froze. It never crossed his mind Melinda would come up with a condition like that.

Jeremy was Sophia's husband. That morning, Sophia even took him to the hospital to prepare for IVF. She would never allow him to go back to Corinne and the kids.
