Corinne sat lazily on the bedhead and continued flipping through the book she read halfway. She did not seem to

mind that Lucas followed her in, and she simply ignored his presence.

Lucas scanned the room and finally rested his gaze on his sister, whose belly had grown significantly. He pleaded

earnestly, “Why don’t you come home with me, Corinne?”

Corinne calmly turned a page of the book. “Home? I’m already home. What other home should I go back to?”

Lucas walked to her side and sat down gracefully. “You know what I meant. Don’t kick up a fuss.”

Corinne glanced at him. “Could you tell me how you found out that I’m here? Was it your brother Sunny? Or your

good friend Jason?”

Lucas came clean and said, “It was Jeremy.”

That answer caught Corinne by surprise.

“Aren’t you his rival? I didn’t think the two of you would be in contact with each other.”

Lucas sighed. “That’s not important, Corinne. I won’t ask you where you’ve been for the past six months, but you’re

pretty far ahead in your pregnancy now. I can’t be at ease if you’re living alone elsewhere. Come home. I’ll find

someone to take care of you. Is that okay?”

Corinne looked at Lucas as if he was a stranger. “I appreciate your kindness, but this is my home now. I won’t go

anywhere.”

Lucas stretched out his hand in distress and touched his younger sister’s head. “I know you still resent him, and I’m

aware that you don’t plan on forgiving him. But you still need to take good care of yourself now that you’re a little

further into your pregnancy. Come back with me to the Riveras. I’ll make sure to do everything you say!”

Corinne snorted. “Who says I’m not taking good care of myself? Haven’t I done that during the past six months?

You don’t need to worry about me. You’re free to leave now that you’ve seen me safe and sound.”

Lucas frowned worriedly. “Corinne!”

“What’s wrong?” Corinne cocked her eyebrows. “Are you upset because I’m not as obedient as Anya is?”

Lucas was startled. “No. I wasn’t thinking about that. I’ll never compare you to her.”

Corinne smiled indifferently. “I get that you’re worried about me, and I understand that you have good intentions

when you persuade me to go back with you. But have you ever thought about how you’re going to explain my

status to everyone in the Riveras after you bring me back?

“Even if you publicly stated to them that I’m your long-lost sister, did you stop to consider what they’d think of me?

Now that I’m pregnant, are your grandparents going to be prejudiced against me because I got pregnant out of

wedlock with someone from their rival family?

“They’re already prejudiced against our mother, and the misunderstanding runs too deep! If I go back like this,

they’ll just use this as a reason to say that my mother hasn’t raised her daughter well. I don’t want the Riveras to

badmouth my mother because of something I did.”

Lucas looked at his sister with a complicated expression. “To be honest, Grandpa and Grandma aren’t as bad as you

think they are. You’ve met them before, and you—”

Corinne sardonically interrupted, “Are you sure? I’ve always thought well of them, though. If I hadn’t, then they’d be

more likely to be skeptical that I don’t have the Rivera bloodline! Didn’t they kick my mother out of the house

because they suspected her of cheating and giving birth to someone else’s child?”

Lucas was silent.

Corinne did not want to waste her breath with him anymore and told him to leave. “You can go. I’ll take care of

myself! You don’t need to worry about me.”

Lucas had a distressed expression. “If you don’t want to go back to the Riveras, then you can go to my place! I live

alone! Your pregnancy is almost at full term now, and I’ll arrange for someone to take good care of you. That way, I

can know your condition at any time.”
