Maxwell could sense the hostility coming off of Corinne, so he said nothing else.

Everyone started to dig in while Anya and Phoebe were still standing, so they suppressed their anger and sat down

dejectedly.

During the whole dinner, Cedric, Beatrice, and Lucas put their whole attention on Corinne. They piled food on her

plate, worrying she did not have enough while fearing the food was not to her liking.

Anya, the apple of everyone's eye since she was a child, felt neglected like never before, thus ruining her appetite.

She gritted her teeth and glared at Corinne, cursing her in her heart.

Seeing this, Phoebe patted her thigh as a reminder to bide their time. After Anya calmed down, the two of them

exchanged glances with each other, both of them thinking of the plan they hatched moments ago.

"Hey, how could you all start without me? Why didn’t anyone ask me to come down for dinner?" said Sunny

unhappily as he came down the stairs.

Lucas looked at him and asked sternly, "Have you finished your homework? H

Sunny scratched his head guiltily. "I still have a little bit left, but I'm too hungry to think. Can I have my dinner first

before continuing?"

Lucas was in a good mood after seeing Corinne had eaten a lot of the salad he made, so he decided to go easy on

Sunny. "Fine. Sit down. It's good of you to be here too since we have an important guest today."

Sunny glanced at Corinne. 'So the whole family is gathered here to eat dinner with Corinne. Heh! She must think

she's so great now that even Lucas is treating her with respect.'

He decided to sit next to Lucas since it was rare to see him in a good mood. After that, he started shoving food into

his mouth while peeking at Corinne from time to time.

'Why is Corinne sitting at Anya's place? I bet Anya isn't too happy about that. ' He then looked at Anya, who was

sitting across from him, and saw she did not look too happy nor was she eating. Instead, she was pushing her food

around with her fork and would glare at Corinne from time to time.

'Heh, I was right; she's not happy at all. But didn't the two of them make up this afternoon? And didn't she happily

give a tour of the house to Corinne? Sigh... I'll never understand how women can go from friends to enemies in just

a second.'

Suddenly, Phoebe remembered something. She stood up and said with a smile, "I forgot I’ve prepared some fresh

pomegranate juice for Corinne today. I thought she might prefer that to wine! Wait for me here. I'll go get it from

the kitchen now."

After that, she pretended to excitedly run off to the kitchen. Anya's heart began to beat with anticipation as their

plan was in motion. The pomegranate juice Phoebe was referring to had been mixed with a large amount of

saffron.

'Oh, I can't wait to see Corinne getting what's coming for her!' she thought gleefully.

A few minutes later, Phoebe came back with a big glass jug filled with chilled pomegranate juice.
