Anya was still kneeling on the ground. She was alarmed and displeased to see Corinne standing beside Lucas.
“Didn’t you go to the company, Lucas? Why did you come back?”
Lucas heard everything that Phoebe and Anya said about Corinne. He never liked Phoebe in the first place, and he
was even more disgusted after what she felt. There was a stark look of disappointment in his eyes as he looked at
his younger half-sister, whom he used to love so much.
“Corinne mentioned that she wanted to talk to you, so I figured I’d come back and hear what she has to say,” Lucas
said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnya stood up from the ground. She blinked blankly and asked, “What do you want to talk to me about?”
Corinne glanced at her uninterestedly and ignored her for the time being. She faced the elderly couple and smiled
politely at them. “Grandpa Cedric, Grandma Beatrice, good morning, and sorry for bothering all of you.”
Phoebe and Anya’s provocation led Cedric and Beatrice to somewhat doubt Corinne. However, they still had a bit of
affection for her and hoped she was not as the rumors claimed she was.
Cedric said, “No need to be so polite, Corinne. Please, have a seat. We can talk.”
Phoebe nodded. “Yes. Have a seat!”
“Thanks. Don’t mind if I do, then.” Corinne smiled and took a seat on the single-seater sofa next to Cedric.
Standing for too long was a little tiring too as she was pregnant. She glanced at Anya who was standing at one side
and said, “Don’t just stand there. Sit, and we can talk.”
Anya frowned. She was upset because Corinne was acting as if Anya was an outsider. Nevertheless, she still had to
keep up appearances and ensure she exuded an aura of magnanimity.
She forced a smile and sat back gracefully on the sofa. She put on an attitude to show that she was the host and
said, “Make yourself comfortable. Can someone fetch her something to drink, please?”
Corinne accepted the gesture and said, “I don’t want anything special. Just warm water will do.”
Meanwhile, Lucas had sat calmly on a chair that the servant had brought over. He kept quiet while observing the
situation.
When the servant handed over some warm water to Corinne, she took a sip and said, “Did you visit a park this
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmorning, Miss Anya?”
Anya was stunned. “Not! I went to bed a little late yesterday, so I just woke up not too long ago.”
Corinne took another sip of water and raised her eyebrow. “No? Then why were you spotted carrying a black
leather suitcase in a park just off the expressway?”
Anya’s expression fell a little when she heard that. “That’s strange. Who told you that they saw me there? I haven’t
stepped out of the house today. That person must’ve mistaken me for someone else!”
Corinne grinned and took out her phone. She tapped it a few times and showed the screen to everyone. “But the
person in this photo is clearly you!”
