The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1653

Melinda walked away with Lilin without showing any intention of turning back.

Sophia gritted her teeth while staring at them, while Adam hastily got up and tried to chase after them when he realized Melinda was serious.

Sophia stood up and got in Adam's way. "Why are you going after her? Haven't you seen her true colors? She's been claiming she loves you and not your money, but she got jealous when she saw you giving me all your assets. I can't believe she had the cheek to say that she didn't marry for your wealth. Don't bother chasing after her, Dad. She's not going to win the divorce anyway. What court would give her half your assets when she hasn't even made any contribution to your property? She's delusional!"

Sophia's intervention caused Adam to miss the best opportunity to go after Melinda. He could only watch helplessly as Melinda and Lilin walked out of the restaurant's door.

"Enough! Get out of my way! I'm going to chase after them! Melinda doesn't come back to the country often, so she's not familiar with this place. She probably doesn't even know where to go!" Adam said.

Sophia frowned and felt sorry for her father. "She asked for a divorce, and she chose to leave even though she's not familiar with the place. Those are all her decisions, and it's not your fault at all! Don't let them manipulate you, Dad! You're Adam!"

"That may be, but I still need to be responsible for my wife and children!" Adam was getting frantic after being stopped by Sophia. He decided to send his men out to chase after Melinda and Lilin.

Sophia believed it was merely Melinda's deliberate ploy to make Adam beg for forgiveness. She did not want Melinda's wish to come true, hence her decision to stop Adam from going after Melinda and Lilin.

As her father gave chase, Sophia clenched her fists and seethed with anger. She was jealous, and she was not prepared to give in to them. She wanted to chase after him and see if Melinda would get Adam to beg for forgiveness, but she could not do so because Zachary was still there.

Sophia came back to her senses and looked at him. He was calmly drinking water without any apparent concern for her. All he did was sit there as if the situation did not concern him.

Sophia felt a pang of unhappiness as she covered her face and sat down. In her anger and grief, she asked, "Why didn't you side with me earlier? Didn't you see what happened? My father slapped me because of Aunt Melinda and Lilin! Aren't you going to show any concern about me!"

"Are you okay?" Zachary glanced at her and asked. The indifference in his question did nothing but irritate Sophia.
