"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 h*ll 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 b

"Corinne, you should know that you won't be able to get away with what you've done once everyone sees what happened in the surveillance footage. Lucas will sue you for hurting Joey. I'm giving you a chance to turn over a new leaf 'cause after all that's said and done, you've helped Jeremy with his family before and I see you as a friend so I would advise you to take the olive branch while it's still being offered to you!"The way she spoke was so righteous and affectionate that those not in the know might think Anya was nothing but a kind-hearted and forgiving little angel.However, Corinne saw through her. She smirked and said, "Miss Anya, your kind gesture is noted. However, I'm the type who's willing to pay for my own mistake so if the surveillance footage showed what you said I did, then I would turn myself into the police station and sit out my prison terms no matter how many years it's going to be."Anya glared at her and inwardly gritted her teeth. However, as the "victim", s

At the sushi restaurant, Cherry Blossom."Sorry. It's not that I don't want to give you the surveillance footage but it's just that our security cameras have been down for some time so there's no footage to speak of," explained the lady owner fearfully when Lucas and the others told her their reason for coming back to the restaurant.Lucas calmly looked over the security cameras located at the payment counter and the main dining hall. It was exactly as Jeremy said, the security cameras were fine since the on buttons were all flashing green."We know your surveillance system isn't working so we've brought a professional to fix it. We would, of course, require your cooperation in this matter," said Lucas.The lady owner did not know who they were but could tell from their clothes and demeanor that they were people she could not afford to cross. Then there was, of course, the matter of an incident happening in the restaurant so she did not dare to refuse."Yes, of course. The restaur

A frown appeared on Lucas's face; he was not happy at all."How could this be? Lucas, don't you find it weird that the only memory card that's missing is the one in Bamboo Forest?" asked Anya with exaggerated surprise.Lucas thought so too. The surveillance system was fixed but there was no memory card in just one of the security cameras. It would be hard-pressed for anyone to see this as a coincidence.Suddenly, he turned around and looked suspiciously at Corinne.Anya finally saw what she was hoping to see in Lucas' eyes. She, too, followed Lucas' gaze to look at Corinne. Then she pretended a thought just come to her and said, "Corinne, I remember you were the last one to leave the room after Jeremy and I rushed Joey to the hospital Di.d you perhaps stay to steal the memory card so there'll be no evidence of what you did?"Lucas became even more suspicious of Corinne after hearing what Anya said. "Corinne, how do you explain this?""I didn't steal any memory card," Corinne said

The lady owner became a little defensive. "That waiter should be in the staff dorm right now. He asked for a half-day leave 'cause he wasn't feeling too well. Why are you looking for him anyway?""I have some questions I want to ask him about what happened in Bamboo Forest today," Corinne replied."But I've already asked him what happened in Bamboo Forest. He said he had nothing to do with the kid getting burned. Forgive me for saying this, but you all shouldn't involve my staff in whatever grievances you have with each other. He's just a young kid who has no choice but to come out and work to support his family."Corinne nodded and smiled to show she empathized with the lady owner's concern. "Don't worry. I just want to ask him some questions. I promise I won't make his life any more difficult than it already is."On one hand, the lady owner wanted to protect her staff, and on the other, she did not want to offend her customers so after thinking it through, she called out to one o

Corinne slowly came back to her senses. She looked at the furious Lucas and then at the two-faced Anya.Suddenly, she laughed. "Mister Lucas, you can't call this Oliver a witness."Lucas glared at her. "Why not? He and Anya don't know each other and yet their testimonies are the same! Isn't that enough?"'They don't know each other? Ha! Looks like Mister Lucas still doesn't know how devious his little sister is. Well, let me enlighten him today!' thought Corinne."Mister Lucas, please give me ten minutes and I'll prove why Oliver cannot be a witness and why we shouldn't take his testimony seriously."Corinne was not in a hurry to refute Lucas's words but instead asked him for ten minutes.Lucas agreed to give her ten minutes since it would make a difference to the outcome. He wanted to see her suffer through the realization that there was nothing she could do to turn the tables.Anya, too, was confident that she would come out the winner in this case. After all, she already told

"Sure thing." The software engineer immediately sat back down in front of the computer to get the surveillance footage Corinne asked for.Doing that required some time and Corinne was a little tired of standing so she looked around the restaurant for an empty chair she could pull over and sit. However, while she was doing that, she happened to meet Jeremy's deep, dark eyes.Jeremy followed them to the restaurant because the matter involved his son but he did not insert himself in their investigation. Instead, he situated himself at a round table not far from where they were and lit up a cigarette languidly as though the whole thing had nothing to do with him and he was only there to watch the show.The cigarette smoke obscured Jeremy from Corinne so it was hard for her to tell what he was thinking. She was starting to wonder whether he cared about Anya and Joey at all.Suddenly, someone passed her a bottle of mineral water. This pulled her out of her thoughts; she looked down at th

"I just forgot about it, that's all! Do you know how many rooms I have to clean up every day? It stands to reason I'll forget which is which," said Oliver stubbornly.Corinne smiled. "Oh my, your memory isn't that great huh? Now I'm worried whether you've ever mixed up the orders you're in charge of. Though I must wonder why the owner of this restaurant would keep you on the job if your memory is as bad as you've implied."Oliver guiltily shifted his eyes away from her. "No! It's only today my memory isn't that great 'cause, 'cause I'm not feeling well. Miss, why do you insist on pushing the blame on me when you're the one who snatched the bowl of soup away from me and poured it all over the kid?""Did I say you have anything to do with that? I'm just asking you where the memory card is." Corinne suddenly smiled but only for a second before her face became serious again. "Oliver, it's still not too late for you to hand over the memory card now. Otherwise, I'll call the police and th
