Anya had calmed down by then, so she went to her mother's aid.

"Lucas, you shouldn't suspect Mom like this! Everyone knows saffron is good for beauty. And it's not like she has a

medical background. She only wanted to share the good stuff with Corinne. In any case, it's just a matter of good

intention, bad execution."

'Good intention? Her good intention nearly killed the baby in Corinne's womb and caused Sunny to suffer from

gastrointestinal bleeding!' thought Lucas. He could not help but feel a sense of revulsion when he looked at Anya.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. The doctor who had given them the test result had come back. "By the

way, I forgot to return something to Miss Anya."

He walked over to Anya and took out the bank card from his white coat.

"I'm sorry, Miss Anya,” he said solemnly, "but we have rules in the hospital saying we're not allowed to accept bribe

money or tamper with test results.

I accepted your bank card just now because I was afraid you wouldn't stop harassing me until I accepted it. Now

that I've finished my job, I can give this back to you."

All the colors immediately drained out of Anya's face. She did not and would not take back the card because if she

did, everyone there would know her true colors. All the years she spent crafting her good girl image would be gone

in an instant!

However, she could not think of a way to weasel herself out of this either.

Lucas took the card from the doctor's hand to confirm it was, indeed, Anya's name written on the card. His eyes

were filled with disappointment and rage as he glared at the pale-faced Anya. "You even know how to bribe the

doctors with money?"

Anya immediately snapped out of her shock. She shook her head rapidly." No... No, it's not like that, Lucas. I gave

the doctor money because I was really worried about Sunny and wanted to make sure he gets the best treatment

there is..."

Lucas' disappointment in Anya turned into disgust and hatred when he realized Anya was never going to stop lying.

He scoffed angrily and said," Then you should give the money to the doctor in charge of Sunny's case instead of the

doctor doing the test!"

Anya was unable to come up with a retort to an argument like that. "No, Lucas... I..."

Being beyond disappointed, Lucas smashed the bank card on the ground. He thought Phoebe was the lone

perpetrator in this matter. As a mother, she wanted to help her daughter get back the man Corinne stole from her,

which was why she decided to get rid of Corinne's baby.

In other words, he thought Anya did not know any better and just wanted to protect her mother. He had hoped

Anya had nothing to do with carrying out the plan, but the bank card proved him otherwise. Not only did Anya know

about everything, but she was an accomplice as well!

'How did my sweet little sister turn out to be so evil? Just how many times have I fallen for her innocent act?' he

lamented to himself.

Anya knew she had let Lucas down. She quickly threw herself into his arms and said pitifully, "Lucas...this is all a

misunderstanding! Things are not what you think they are..."

Lucas pushed her away in disgust. "Even now you still won't own up to your mistakes? Hmph! I will never believe a

word you say again."
