Chapter 471

While eating, Lucas hummed lazily. It seemed like he responded to him, but at the same time, he did not. He was

very polite the whole time, but he also seemed cool and distant.

While Lucas was having lunch, he received a call, so he got up and headed out.

Seeing Lucas leave, Rosie got a little worried. Lucas finally had a few bites, but he left the office again. Was it

because the food she made was not to Lucas’s taste?

Anya could tell that her best friend was feeling uneasy. Being considerate, she patted Rosie’s hand and comforted

her, “Rosie, my brother’s like this. He often neglects his sleep and skips meals for work. Don’t

overthink it.”

Rosie nodded, feeling slightly relieved.

Anya suddenly thought of something and said, “Rosie, my aunt’s birthday party is tomorrow. Have your prepared a

dress for the party?”

Rosie was dazed. She already forgot about it if Anya did not mention it. “Anya, I remember your aunt, Missus Benet,

has a rule that everybody has to bring a partner to her birthday party, is that right? I wonder if Lucas has found a

girl to attend the party with him this year.”

Anya understood what her best friend meant. “Don’t worry, Rosie. I’m here. You have always been his partner all

these years, so there would be no exception this year either!”

Rosie was so touched, she smiled. “Thank you for knowing me so well, Anya.”

Anya said, “But you just came out of prison, so you probably haven’t had the time to buy a new dress, am I right?

Do you want me to go shopping with you now? Let’s buy you a beautiful dress, then you can make my brother stun

and fall for you when you wear it tomorrow!”

Rosie said, “Of course! But would it be inconvenient for us to go shopping with Joey?”

It was only then that Anya thought of Joey. Looking at the boy in her arms, she realized he was yawning- He was so

sleepy that he could not open his eyes at all.

After a while, the door to Lucas’s office opened when Corinne was still busy translating the document. Anya and

Rosie walked out of the office together.

Anya went to Corinne’s desk, asking politely and gently, “Corinne, Rosie, and I would like to head out for a moment.

Can you please help me look after my child?”

“Me?” Corinne raised her head, looking at Anya in confusion. Business is business, so Corinne rejected her, saying,

“I’m sorry. Taking care of a child is not part of my job scope.” xo.com fast update

Anya requested nicely again, “We’ll be quick. Rosie and I have not met each other for a long time, so we just want

to shop at the mall downstairs for a while. I also have to buy some things for Joey.”

Corinne did not budge. “Miss Anya, you can either bring your child with you as you shop or let your brother -the

child’s uncle and my boss-help you look after him. Either option would be much better than leaving your child in the

care of an outsider like me.”

Anya felt troubled. “But Joey’s asleep and my brother went out. Also, my brother doesn’t know how to take care of

a child!”

Corinne did not stop working at all, and she did not yield when Anya asked her nicely for a favor. She smiled and

said, “I’ve never given birth before, if Mister Lucasn’t know how to look after a child, I’m

worse. Also, I have a lot of work on my plate that’s not finished yet, and I don’t have the time. I’m sorry but my

hands are tied.”

“Alright. Forget it.” Anya lowered her head bitterly, then she sighed helplessly. With regret, she turned to Rosie and

said, “Rosie, it looks like I can’t pick out a dress with you anymore. How about you ask other friends to go with

you?”

“What do you mean by forget it? Rosie simply could not stand how arrogant Corinne looked. “Anya. Corinne is your

family’s employee now. Who is she to refuse following your order?”
