The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

"Alright, Claire, you should head back now," said Sherman.

"Why are you stopping me from speaking? Everything I said is true. Can't Miss Rita handle the truth?"

Claire looked aggrieved, and Rita's expression turned cold.

"Miss Claire, why don't you just come right out with it? There's no need to beat around the bush. You're acting quite different from when we met during the interview. I thought you were the straightforward type.'

Rita shifted her gaze aside. She could not quite discern which version of Claire was the real one. After all, they had a pleasant conversation during the interview, but at this moment, she seemed like a different person. In fact, she was acting more like the resentful wife she performed on stage.

"Huh! Aren't you also beating around the bush? I warn you-stay away from Sherman! In fact, he shouldn't even be in your thoughts! We're both women here, so don't think I don't know what you're up to!" Finding Claire's words amusing, Rita could not help but chuckle.

"It seems our last interview wasn't long enough. Otherwise, how could I have missed out on your humorous side?" said Rita sarcastically.

Claire's expression turned serious, and her previous air of superiority vanished completely. She never expected to meet such resistance. Rita did not seem to be affected by her words at all.
