Corinne was too lazy to explain herself. Instead, she asked, “So you’re okay with Anya getting engaged with

someone from the Holden family?”

A look of resignation flashed across Lucas’ face, “Considering my family’s stance on this, 1, for one, don’t wish to

see them getting married because my elders will rain down their disapproval on me. But, my sister is too stubborn

to ever let Jeremy go. It’s as if she’ll dxo.com fast updateie if she’s not with him, and as her brother, it’s my

job to protect her and make sure she lives. happily ever after with the man she loves. I’ll never forgive those who

wish her harm so I hope you can understand where I’m coming from, Miss Carew.”

Corinne looked quietly at Lucas. Suddenly, she smiled. “Yes, I do understand where you’re coming from. She’s lucky

to have a brother like you.”

Lucas could not tell whether she was being sincere in her praise but he did not care one way or another. He did his

job in warning her so that if she knew what was good for her, she would stay away from Jeremy. He would not stand

by and do nothing if she ever came between Jeremy and Anya again.

The affection he had for Anya was two-fold since the love he had for Luna had nowhere else to go. He would

forever regret not being able to protect his mother and Luna fifteen years ago. and thus, he swore to himself that

he would protect Anya at all costs.

He especially did not like Corinne for hurting Anya over and over again.

After Corinne came out from behind the bookshelf, she stood in a different spot than when she first came in. At that

moment, she was standing beside Lucas’ desk and from that angle, she could see all the things on top of the desk.

She did not mean to spy on other people’s things but as she passed her eyes over the desk, she saw something that

made her stop. There was a photo of a woman with bright eyes and a kind smile holding a little girl who looked to

be about three or four years old in her arms and standing beside her was a boy who looked to be ten years old. The

three of them were smiling happily at the camera.

‘That pretty lady looks so familiar. Could she be my mom? It is her! She has the same eyes, nose, and lips as the

woman in my memory.’ She could finally put a face to her mother. No more blurry memories and vague dreams!

Corinne’s heart suddenly tightened and her eyes started to brim with tears.

Lucas noticed something was off with her. He looked at her in alarm before following her gaze to the picture frame

on his desk. He then frowned and turned the picture frame around, not wanting Corinne to keep staring at it.

“Miss Carew, you may leave now. Edmund, please see her off.”

“Yes, Mister Lucas.” Edmund came into the office and glanced at Corinne. Something came up that took

precedence over seeing Corinne off. “Mister Lucas, we’ve encountered a problem with the client from Abura.”

Lucas looked up at him and asked, “What problem?”

“The client wasn’t happy with the translation our translation did for him. It seemed like the translator was not

proficient enough in the language and made many mistakes in translating the more technical terms so the client

told the translator to pack up his things and never show his face around them again.”

Edmund racked his head trying to come up with a solution. “We’ve already looked for a replacement in our pool of

translators but those who can report to duty immediately are not

to the client’s standard while those who can do what the client requires are not in New Capital City so it would take

them some time to get here. The situation got from bad to worse and the client was kicking up a fuss, saying that

he will return to his country immediately if no solution is found.”

Lucas frowned. Judging by the hint of rarely-seen anxiety on his face, this was indeed a difficult problem.

Corinne raised an eyebrow and said lightly, “If you still can’t find a translator, I don’t mind giving it a try.”
