They were disappointed Anya lied and was baffled as to why she would do that.
Lucas narrowed his eyes at Anya after looking at the surveillance footage. “How do you explain this, Anya? Why is
there a traffic record of you driving out of the city when you’ve insisted you didn’t?”
Anya became a little deflated when faced with Lucas. “That… That’s because I didn’t sleep well last night, so I went
for a drive to cheer myself up. I thought I’d drive out of the city since it’s a quieter route, but that doesn’t mean I
went to the park!”
Corinne scoffed. “Miss Anya, didn’t you insist you didn’t go out this morning? Why the change in tune of your story?
Which is the truth, then? Aren’t you just contradicting yourself?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnya’s gaze darted around. “I… I…”
Lucas frowned. He had completely given up on Anya.
“Why did you sneak out of the house and choose a car your family didn’t even know you had if you were just going
out for a drive to cheer yourself up?” asked Corinne. “Doesn’t this just prove you didn’t want anyone to know where
you were going or who you were meeting? If you have nothing to hide, Miss Anya, why did you go through all this
trouble, huh?”
Anya’s eyes were trembling so hard they seemed about to fall out of their sockets. She could not think of a retort at
all.
“Miss Corinne, that’s enough!” Phoebe interjected. “Just what are you trying to achieve by coming to my house this
early in the morning to sling baseless accusations at my daughter?”
Corinne looked condescendingly at her. “Miss Phoebe, I’m not slinging baseless accusations at your daughter. In
fact, I think she’s just like you: A woman who’s willing to do anything to get what she wants.”
Phoebe scowled. “How… How dare you talk to me like that? Mom, Dad, Lucas, you all heard what she said, right?
She’s finally showing her true colors!”
Cedric and Beatrice exchanged glances. They both thought Corinne was a little hostile today, but Lucas’ heart went
out to her since he understood why she hated Phoebe so much.
Corinne ignored Phoebe. “Yesterday, my stepmother brought her husband, daughter, and the mother-daughter duo
who slandered me online to my house. The mother-daughter duo said they had come to seek justice from the
Holdens because I supposedly stole her precious daughter’s university spot and even accused me of being a high-
school sl*t. The Holdens didn’t buy their lies, so they turned to the internet to slander me.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“But how could two ordinary people who came from the countryside cause this big of a ruckus in such a short time?
It’s impossible. Not to mention, they did the same thing overseas when their news and public comments were
banned in our country.
“I’m not worried about my reputation being damaged since I knew I didn’t do anything wrong. But what p*sses me
off is that they had to involve the Holdens. Not only did the Holden Group’s shares drop to the bottom, but the
family’s reputation was dragged through the mud, too.
“So don’t tell me it’s a coincidence Anya just so happened to be at the same park with my stepmother and her
daughter for her to pass them the black leather case containing god-knows-what.”
