“Miss Anya, that should be my line. I should be the one who stays away from you in the future. After all, trouble

seems to follow me whenever I’m with you.”

That was what Corinne said after coming into the ward with a lazy and mocking smile on her

lips.

Jeremy’s face immediately darkened at her reappearance. He looked at her in a way that asked, “What the hell are

you doing back here?”

Corinne only had to look at his face to know what he was thinking. She simply shrugged and looked him in the eyes

in a way that said, “I didn’t do anything wrong so why should I run away?”

Jeremy threw him one last cold glance before looking away.

Seeing Corinne come back, Anya immediately came up with a new plan. With eyes still glistening with tears, she

walked up to her and said, “Corinne, let’s put all this behind us. I’m willing to forgive you as long as you promised

not to hurt Joey anymore. I won’t hold a grudge against you even if you still won’t admit what you’ve done.”

Corinne instantly backed away when she saw Anya walking up to her as if she was nothing but an annoying gnat.

She refused to let Anya get any closer to her.

“No, don’t forgive me, Anya. ‘Cause I don’t need it! What I need now is to prove my innocence!

“Corinne!” Anya pretended to be hurt by Corinne’s refusal to accept her forgiveness. “Please don’t be like this. I

want to make things up with you!”

Corinne had enough of her theatrics so she completely ignored her. Instead, she looked at Lucas and said, “Mister

Lucas, I heard Mister Jeremy say the restaurant’s surveillance system could be fixed just now. Can we all go now to

get the surveillance footage so that I can prove my innocence?”

Before Lucas could say anything, Anya chimed in again, “Let’s just forget about it, Lucas. Don’t listen to what she

says. We should just let her go. I’m so tired and I don’t want to drag this any longer than it has to be. Besides, it’s

more important for me to stay here and take care of Joey.”

Corinne raised her eyebrow. “Miss Anya, why does it seem like you’re afraid of seeing what’s in the surveillance

footage? Even I, the so-called perpetrator, am not afraid so why should you be?”

Her words hit too close to home, making Anya at a loss for words.

Seeing this, Lucas frowned slightly. He was starting to believe that Corinne might be innocent

as she did not seem like she had anything to hide whereas Anya was acting a little weird.

From the very beginning, Anya was the one who insisted on making Corinne pay for what she did to Joey but she

suddenly changed her tune to wanting to let the whole matter slide after Jeremy said the surveillance system could

be fixed.

‘Could it be? Anya deliberately lied about the whole thing to make Jeremy hate Corinne so that she could keep him

by her side forever?’ thought Lucas. Doubt began to fill his eyes when he looked at Anya. ‘If that’s really what

happened then, just how well do I know this little sister of mine? No, she has always been kind and gentle since

young. She couldn’t have become so manipulative overnight!’

Anya started to panic as she noticed the doubt in Lucas’s eyes but she forced herself to think clearly. The more she

was suspected, the more she could not afford to mess up. Besides, nothing was set in stone yet so there was still a

chance for her to turn this around!

She quickly came up with a new plan. After putting on a mock angry face, she said to Corinne, I’m not afraid! I’m

just doing this for your good and don’t want to see you being punished,

that’s all!”
