Chapter 474
Corinne was not surprised at all that Lucas would believe Rosie’s words. Without batting an eye, Corinne made her
stance clear as she said, “Mister Lucas, this is what happened. An hour ago, Miss Anya and Miss Rosie said they
wanted to go shopping and asked me to help take care of the child. I repeatedly refused but to no avail. I had no
choice but to watch Miss Anya’s child sleep the whole time. I did not touch him at all. As for how injuries on his body
happened, I have no idea.”
Hearing what Corinne said, Anya sobbed even harder in Lucas’ arms. She blamed herself and said, ” Lucas! It’s my
fault! It’s all my fault! I shouldn’t have left Joey in the care of your secretary. I didn’t expect she’ll do this to my
child.”
Rosie said furiously, “Lucas, don’t listen to Corinne! Joey came running in fear while crying as soon as we entered. If
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwe came back any later, there’s no telling how Corinne will abuse Joey! I feel we should call the police straight away
and detain her. Child abuse is a serious crime!”
Lucas glanced at Rosie and did not listen to her opinion. He looked at Corinne again with an unfathomable gaze.
“How can you prove that you didn’t touch Joey?”
Carrying her child and being in her brother’s arms, Anya turned her face timidly and choked back a sob as she said
weakly, “Corinne, why? Why did you do this to my child?”
Rosie questioned her as well, “Corinne, is it because Joey is Anya and Jeremy’s child that you felt jealous, so you
can’t stand the sight of him and deliberately abused him to vent your anger?”
Jealous? Corinne sneered and ignored Rosie. She looked at Anya-who was sobbing-and said, “Usually, when a
mother sees that her child is injured, her first response should be rushing the child to a hospital, then find out who’s
the person who hurt her child after that! However, I see that you’re not worried about your child’s injuries at all.
Instead, your focus is on slandering me!”
Anya’s eyes were shifty, and there was a hint of guilt on her face that was barely noticeable. “I’m not trying to
slander anybody. I’m heartbroken to see Joey’s injuries! Lucas, hurry up and get the doctor!” She sobbed.
Rosie disliked Corinne, so she defended her best friend and said, “Anya is just in a panic. Of course, she cares about
the child’s injuries very much. Lucas and I care about it very much too. We’ll take Joey to the hospital immediately!
Don’t you try to create a distraction? Just admit it honestly and be prepared to be imprisoned!”
Corinne glanced at Rosie indifferently, then she looked at her boss, Lucas, and said, “Mister Lucas, you asked me
earlier how I can prove I didn’t touch the child, didn’t you?”
Lucas stared at her seriously. “Do you have a wayxo.com fast update to prove it?”
“Yes.” Corinne nodded calmly and said, “I don’t know how to take care of a child, and I was afraid I won’t be able to
explain myself if anything happened, so I started recording a video with my phone starting from the moment I
entered the office. My phone is recording this whole time without stopping in between.”
Hearing that, Anya’s eyes darted. What? Did she record a video?

Rosie was a little surprised as well. Could it be that Joey’s injuries were not caused by Corinne?
Lucas squinted. “Where’s the video?”
Corinne raised her hand to point. “Mister Lucas, my phone is next to the photo frame on your desk. You can go and
stop the recording now and watch the playback. Also, the surveillance camera at your door captured the precise
time I came in, which is also the time my phone started recording. There are no gaps in between. The video will
prove that I’ve never touched Miss Anya’s child at all.”
Hearing what Corinne said, Lucas patted his sister’s shoulder while she was still sobbing in his arms, then he left her
in Rosie’s care, After that, he went to pick up the phone on his desk to have a look.
The phone was still recording a video. Lucas stopped it and watched at high-speed everything that happened in the
one hour Corinne was looking after the child in the office
Following that, Lucas walked over, returned the phone to Corinne, and said, “This indeed has nothing to do with M
