"Lucas! Lucas…!"Anya collapsed onto the floor and kept crying. 'Sh*t! Sh*t! Sh*t! It's all over for me!'The 'good girl' image she so painstakingly built over the years was destroyed in an instant by Corinne. She was out of ideas as even Lucas turned his back on her, too!Phoebe started to panic when she saw her daughter, who everyone used to pamper, was rebuked by everyone. Her heart broke when she saw how hard Lucas slapped Anya.She looked unhappily at Maxwell. "Say something, Maxwell! Didn't you just see how Lucas slapped Anya? As their father, shouldn't you do something about it?!"Maxwell sat there calmly. His face had lost its youthfulness, but in return, he looked like he gained a certain acceptance of life."The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. This is all karma, so you have no one else to blame but yourself."Phoebe's face paled. "Maxwell! How can you talk like this about me and Anya? Haven't I always given the best to your family? What have I done for you to tre

Phoebe and Anya were shocked by Sunny yelling at them.Maxwell simply got up calmly and picked up his jacket that hung from the back of the chair. "Get well soon, Sunny. Press the call button if you need anything, and a nurse will come for you."He then walked toward the door, and on his way there, he said to Phoebe, "You should let your son rest if you want him to get better."He was out of the door by the time he said the last word.Phoebe frowned. With Anya having lost Lucas' trust, Sunny was Phoebe's only hope to stay in the family. Thus, she dared not provoke Sunny anymore, and she quickly dragged Anya out with her.Maxwell was nowhere to be found once the two of them got out of the room. Instead, they saw the bodyguards Lucas arranged to stand guard by Sunny's door.A wave of exhaustion washed over Anya as she finally calmed down. She slumped down on the chair and said anxiously, "What should we do now? Even Lucas doesn't believe me anymore! And I'm pretty sure Jeremy won't

"Corinne!"Corinne heard someone shout out her name just when she was about to get into the car. With one foot inside, she turned to look around and saw Lucas striding toward her."Corinne, a moment of your time, please? There's something I'd like to tell you in private," said Lucas softly.Corinne raised her brow a little. After considering it, she turned to Jeremy and said, "Mister, can you go buy me a bottle of yogurt drink at that convenience shop over there? I suddenly have a craving for it."Jeremy knew Corinne was trying to steer him away. He would not have allowed her to speak privately to a man if this had happened in the past, but it was different since he knew Lucas was her brother.They were long-lost siblings, and since Corinne was willing to speak to Lucas, Jeremy felt like it was not in his place to prevent her from doing so. Thus, he gently ruffled Corinne's hair and said, "Alright, then."He thus walked slowly to the convenience store in front of them.Lucas mad

Corinne's response took Lucas aback, but his eyes were then filled with admiration for his long-lost sister. 'The difference between her and Anya is quite stark. This is what my sister should be like—an independent woman who's not afraid to love and let go at the same time! Anya only knows how to cry and act like a damsel in distress. I must be blind in the past to not see what a drama queen she was.'He took a deep breath before asking, "Corinne, did you come to work for me because you wanted to find out why Mom left our home with you?""Yup, that's right," admitted Corinne. There was no reason to hide it as everything had come to this point.Lucas sighed. "You don't need to do that anymore. I'll tell you whatever you want to know."Corinne narrowed her eyes and said mockingly, "You'll tell me? Hah! You're just going to tell me Mom made a mistake and was caught in bed with another man, and that's why she was kicked out of the house."Lucas frowned. "I didn't want to believe that

Lucas narrowed his eyes. "So there's a high possibility Mom is still alive?"Corinne took a deep breath. "I'm counting on that, but I'm not sure either since I couldn't find any trace of her still being alive. I only managed to gather the paintings she left behind."Lucas sighed. "I've been looking for her all these years and will continue to do so now that you're back."Corinne nodded. "Okay. Thanks, Mister Lucas. Please let me know as soon as possible when you've gotten any leads."She did not mind having an extra pair of hands helping her since that would make the work faster. 'I'm actually worried Mom got killed after entrusting me to the Carews… I'm pretty sure she wouldn't have given me to that family if her life wasn't in danger. She must've thought that was her only choice to keep me safe.'Lucas noticed the sadness on Corinne's face and knew she was thinking about Emily. He then thought of all the hardships Corinne must have suffered alone, causing his heart to nearly bre

After that, the poker-faced Lucas—with his suit jacket flung over his shoulder— walked past Maxwell.Maxwell was used to Lucas' indifferent behavior toward him and thus did not blame him or was provoked. Lucas was unwilling to speak to him ever since Emily and Corinne left the family.Maxwell sat on the bench, narrowed his eyes, and looked toward the parking lot.Jeremy twisted open the cap of the yogurt drink and passed it to Corinne to drink. After taking a big mouthful, she put the bottle near Jeremy's lips, but she cheekily pulled it away again and burst out in laughter when he opened his mouth.The look in Maxwell's eyes softened. 'She really does look like Emily when she was younger. It's been ten years… I wonder how Emily is doing?'…Jeremy went up to shower after getting home. Corinne told him she wanted to watch the TV in the living room for a while, so she did not follow him upstairs. However, what she really did was to go into the kitchen.'Mister mustn't have eaten

Francine loved nothing more than to go shopping for bags, but she could not do that since her grandmother had canceled her card. Understandably, her eyes lit up when Corinne offered to buy her 10 Hermes bags.That was until she remembered how poor Corinne was. She looked at Corinne suspiciously and scoffed, "Are you sure you have the money to uphold your end of the deal?"Corinne smiled. "I'm sure your brother has even more if I don't have the means to. Or have you forgotten that your brother has given all his money to me?"'Oh, that's right. Hermes bags, here I come!' she thought happily."You better keep your word, Corinne. Don't you dare go back on your promise after I finish doing the practice book!"Corinne smiled. "Don't worry, you have my word. By the way, are you sure you don't want to have some noodles?"Francine glanced at the beaten egg in disgust and rolled her eyes. "Pfft! I don't want any of your stinky noodles. Even my dog wouldn't eat poor people's food like that.

Corinne's eyebrows shot up. "Mister, you know she didn't become like that in a day or two, right? No, she got like this because you and your family have been spoiling her rotten since she was little. Due to the nature of your relationship, you can't kick her out of the house, so we might as well slowly teach her how to be a decent human being and give her the space to figure things out for herself."Jeremy was a little taken aback. 'So she's doing all this for me?' Determined as he was to teach Francine a lesson, he could not bear to kick her out of the house. 'Where can she go? It'll be worse if she goes back to live with that wanton mother of hers!'Jeremy and Francine might be step-siblings, but she was the only sister he had, so he actually cherished her very much. Previously, he was too busy with work to guide her to be a decent human being. Not to mention, he would try to shower her with whatever she wanted out of guilt of leaving her all alone in the house.However, once she
