Chapter 807
“Corinne, are you alright?”
Anya suddenly swatted the music box from Corinne’s hand, and it fell to the floor with a thud. The two little bears
broke into pieces, and the music ceased swiftly.
Corinne snapped out of her trance and looked at the broken music box sadly. She then bent down to pick up the
pieces.
“God, why am I so clumsy? What a pity that the music box broke…” muttered Anya in an act-
cute manner.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCorinne ignored her. She turned the music box in her hand to try to make it play again, but alas, it was irrevocably
broken.
“Be careful, Corinne. You wouldn’t want to cut your hand on those broken glasses now, do you? Wait here. I’ll go
ask the servant to clean it up,” said Anya. She then strode out of the
room.
Corinne continued to ignore her. She kept staring at the broken music box in her hands. ‘I remember this song…and
this room, too…”
Anya looked at her watch again after walking out of the room. Then, she smirked smugly before going downstairs.
Lucas walked in through the foyer as soon as Anya got downstairs.
“Welcome back, Lucas!” greeted Anya.
Lucas took off his suit jacket and passed it to the servant. “What’s the emergency? Why did you ask me to come
home immediately?”
Anya smiled innocently. “A very special guest came to our house today. She’s the person who saved Grandpa, so
that’s why I texted you to come home. I thought you should play host too. After all, she’s a very important person to
the family…’
“The person who saved Grandpa?” Lucas’ eyes suddenly turned sharp.
Anya nodded. “Yeah! Guess who she is, Lucas! Wait, no, I’ll tell you. It’s Corinne! What a total coincidence, right? I
can’t believe Corinne was the person who saved Grandpa.”
She emphasized the word ‘coincidence’ to hint that it was not a coincidence at all.
Lucas did not give her the reaction she was hoping for. Instead, he just looked around and asked, “Where is she
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnow?”
Anya blinked. “She’s upstairs! I was about to bring her to see my room. Come on, I’ll bring you to her. We should
thank her properly for saving Grandpa’s life.”
Thus, Lucas followed Anya upstairs. Along the way, Anya said, “Lucas, I told Corinne to spend as much time as she
liked in my room. She seemed to have taken a liking to it since she praised you for hiring the designer who designed
my room.”
Lucas did a double-take when he heard that. Suddenly, a whirl of emotions and questions
rushed into his mind. ‘What will Corinne think when she hears I’ve specially hired a designer to design Anya’s room?
Will she think I’m playing favorites?’
Suddenly, Anya screamed, “Oh my god, Corinne! Why did you go into that room? Didn’t I tell you that this room is
off-limits?!”
