Lucas‘ face softened when he saw Anya’s eyes reddening. He reached out to wipe away the tears that were about

to fall from the corners of her eyes and said, “There, there. Don’t cry, Anya. I was just asking…”

Anya sniffled sadly. “But your tone says otherwise. You sounded so mean…”

Lucas sighed with resignation. Then, he continued to patiently explain to her, “Anya, that phone has never left the

drawer in my study, but now, there’s an edited version of the video posted online to slander Corinne, resulting in a

“I was just going through a standard procedure of making sure no one in our family is the culprit before letting

Edmund question the other staff in the household.

“Do you now understand? And you should know that, as your brother, I’ll always trust you a hundred percent,

okay?”

Anya wiped away her tears and nodded like a little girl. “Okay. If this is the case, it’s totally understandable that

you’ll suspect me, since I’m the only one in this house who has total access to your study.”

Lucas patted her head. He regretted being so harsh on Anya and knew he should have trusted her more. After all,

she had always been a sensible little sister.

“But it really wasn’t me. You know I won’t ever do something like that. It’s just not in me. Besides, I wasn’t the only

one who went into your study. Recently, didn’t you ask Sunny to finish his homework in your study before he was

allowed to go out to play?

“Felix–the servant in charge of taking care of Sunny–and all the other servants who brought in refreshments for

Sunny, they had been into your study too. You should interrogate them and see which one of them would do

something so despicable as to slander Corinne on the Internet!”

“Sunny?” The expression on Lucas‘ face immediately became serious.

Anya pretended to be startled. Then, she said anxiously, “Lucas, do you think Sunny could’ve done it in a moment

of anger? You know, because he wanted to make Corinne pay for what she did to

Rosie?”

Lucas got a headache just thinking about that idiot brother of his. He scoffed and said, “I’m going to disown him if

he did that. What Rosie did was illegal. Not to mention, she also put your safety at risk, so she got what she

deserved. Sunny had no right to blame it on Corinne.”

Anya realized Lucas was really angry, so she tried to defuse the situation. “It might not be Sunny, then. I’m just

worried…”

Apart from Anya and 1, the only person in this household who knows Corinne is that idiotic brother of mine. I don’t

think any of the servants know her, so why would they go to all the trouble to do something like this to someone

they don’t know?’ thought Lucas.

After he calmed himself, he turned to Anya and gently said, “Anya, you must be tired after going out with your

friends. You weren’t feeling well this afternoon too, so you should head to bed. I still have some work I need to

finish.”

“Okay, I’ll leave you to your work then. But remember to take it easy. I’m sure the investigation will turn up with

something soon. Goodnight, Lucas.”

After that, Anya went out of the study with a smile on her face, but her face immediately darkened the moment she

stepped outside of the door.

‘Sh*t! The plan is backfiring on me,‘ thought Anya, gritting her teeth.

She never expected Lucas–who had always been indifferent to outsiders–would waste his time. on Corinne. What

was worse was that she would be done for if Lucas found out she was the one who posted the video online.

Therefore, she had no choice but to use Sunny as a diversion to buy

herself more time.

Lucas‘ face returned to its usual seriousness after Anya left his study.

“Edmund, get that idiot brother of mine in here. I need to ask him some questions,” he ordered. “Yes, Mister

Lucas,” said Edmund.
