Chapter 825
Corinne shook her head. "Of course I'll forgive you, Miss Phoebe. But I just think you, as an elder, shouldn't have to
atone for anything to me, a junior. In fact, it'll be very insensible of me to accept your atonement."
Phoebe's lips twitched slightly as she mentally cursed Corinne for being a fake b*tch, but she quickly squeezed out a
warm smile and said, "Oh alright, I take back what I said. Just think of this juice as me wanting to give you a little
treat. How's that?"
To that, Corinne raised her glass. "Sure! Don't mind if I do, then."
Phoebe nodded. "Go ahead! Give it a try, and let me know what you think."

paused. She then turned to look at Anya with a raise of her eyebrow.
"Before I drink this juice, I would like to thank Miss Anya properly," she said with a polite smile.
Anya was just like her mother, too excited for Corinne to drink the juice, so she was understandably stunned when
Corinne mentioned her name.
"Umm, what do you have to thank me for, Corinne?" she asked, chuckling drily.
Phoebe was just as confused as Anya. She frowned impatiently and wondered, 'Why won't this b*tch just drink the
d*mn juice?'
Everyone else at the dinner table waited respectfully for Corinne to say what she had to say, while Lucas turned to
look at Corinne with confusion.
Being Anya and Corinne's brother, he had witnessed the grudges his two sisters held toward each other. He would
be happy if Corinne was willing to forgive him and Anya, but he could not figure out why she would want to
suddenly thank Anya.
Under everyone's watchful gaze, Corinne said sincerely, "Thank you, Miss Anya, for patiently showing me around
this wonderful house of your family. You were so kind to take time out of your busy schedule and even leave your
kid for the nanny to take care of, just so you can show me each of the rooms here."
Corinne's words sounded like a sarcastic jab to Anya, leaving her to wonder whether or not she should smile. 'She's
definitely implying I don't look after my kid even though I have so much time on my hands. D*mn you and your
sneaky attacks, Corinne!'
However, Anya had a few tricks up her sleeve as well. She beamed happily and said, "Oh, you're too kind, Corinne.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYou are Grandpa's savior! Not to mention you came all the way here, so I'm just doing what any good hostess
would've done."
Corinne nodded, smiled, and raised her glass. "Miss Anya, I raise this glass to you. Thank you for your hospitality!"
Anya was not about to be overshadowed by her. She stood up, picked up her wine glass, and raised it to Corinne
too.
"No, I should be the one raising my glass to you. Thank you for saving my Grandpa's life."
She then downed the whole glass as a show of her 'sincerity', and also for Corinne to quickly drink her pomegranate
juice too.
