Chapter 604
Corinne’s lips curled up slightly, and she said to Anya with a smirk, “Miss Anya, I’ve already taken off Consort
Aileen’s costume and folded it up on the make–up table backstage. Remember to get someone to collect it from
there later.
“The costume looks so well–made; it seems to be a dress with high–class tailoring. It’s best if you could get
someone to check the costume and put it away. I won’t be responsible if it gets lost or if someone else damages it!”
Corinne spoke calmly and nonchalantly, but the atmosphere around her suddenly did not feel right anymore.
Anya’s and Rosie’s expressions stiffened, and they were unsure how to react at that moment. They could only glare
at Corinne secretly while anxiously observing Edgar’s reaction.
Edgar’s warm expression had turned cold, and he glanced at Anya sitting in a wheelchair with an innocent face

Corinne smiled innocently at the old man, and when she saw that Anya did not rexo.com fast updatespond,
she asked again,” Why aren’t you saying anything, Miss Anya? I’ll take it that everything’s fine then. In that case, I’ll
be leaving. See you around!”
After ending the conversation with Anya, Corinne made a point to bow politely and bid goodbye to the two elders.
“Sir, Ma’am, it’s a great honor to be able to attend your banquet here today. I’ll leave you to enjoy the celebrations.
Goodbye.”
She then turned around and prepared to leave.
At that moment, the dazed Gertrude seemed to have suddenly awoken from a dream and stretched out her hand
to grab Corinne.
“It’s Emily… She’s Emily! Don’t go, Emily….”
Corinne froze for a split second when she heard the name ‘Emily‘, but she neither stopped walking nor turned
around to look at the old lady.
As soon as the old lady started to make a fuss, Edgar returned to his senses, helped his wife up, and called out,
“Wait!”
Corinne finally stopped walking, turned around, and smiled politely. “Were you talking to me, sir?”
Edgar asked her pensively, “I heard what you said earlier. Does that mean you had just taken off Consort Aileen’s
costume not long ago?”
Corinne nodded naturally. “Yes.”
A frown unfurled across Edgar’s face. “Does that mean… The girl who just sang ‘Farewell, My Love‘ on stage was
you?”
Corinne raised her eyebrows, but rather than rushing to answer the old man’s question, she gazed at Anya’s face
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmas the latter sat in the wheelchair. Anya was stiff and pale, and she was also staring at Corinne with those seemingly
calm eyes brimming with threats and hints.
She was warning Corinne that it was best not to speak any nonsense.
Corinne could understand what Anya meant to say, but she remained indifferent to it and answered Edgar
truthfully.
“Yes. I sang ‘Farewell, My Love‘ in place of Miss Anya on stage earlier. Apologies for not meeting the highest
standards in my performance.”
After getting that answer, the old man’s complexion sank completely. His renewed impression of Anya disappeared
instantly, and he disliked her much more than before. He was also especially annoyed at himself because he had
just believed in a lie.
Edgar’s stern eyes glared at Anya and Rosie, who had both been working in tandem, and he snorted heavily before
asking in a cold voice, “Didn’t you say that you were the one who sang ‘Farewell, My Love“?”
