"That's enough, Anya! You can ask for an apology if there's really a misunderstanding, but there's no need to ask

Corinne to kneel," lectured Maxwell.

"But Dad! You were suspicious of Mom too, right? How do you think Mom feels, knowing her husband also

suspected her? How can Mom ever show her face around you again if we don't seek justice for her? I know Corinne

meant well, but look what it's doing to our family! It's only fair for her to bear the consequences for her action, and

I'll take nothing less than her kneeling and begging Mom for forgiveness."

Lucas was getting to the end of his patience too. "That's enough, Anya! You

"Everyone, you can all stop speaking up for me now," cut in Corinne indifferently. "I'm willing to do what Anya wants

as long as the test result comes back clean."

The whole room fell silent.

Lucas turned to look at Corinne with pain and a multitude of other feelings in his eyes.

Jeremy frowned. He was not happy with Corinne's decision and was about to say something when Corinne, as if she

knew what he was thinking, pulled his hand. She then looked up at him and shook her head, telling him to not worry

and that she had everything under control.

Thus, Jeremy had no choice but to silently watch the incident unfold.

A smug look appeared in Anya's eyes when she saw everyone was quiet. After that, she pretended to wipe away

her tears before turning to look at the doctor. "Doctor, you may announce the test result now."

The doctor nodded and intoned seriously, "The test result shows that the pomegranate is indeed very pure."

The test result was just as Anya expected. She mentally smirked and did a victory dance. She knew the doctor

would not divulge the secret ingredient in the pomegranate juice, not when she had bribed him. Nobody could say

no to that much money after all.

"Did you hear that, Corinne? The doctor said the pomegranate juice is very pure. You were wrong, and my mother

is innocent."

Phoebe smiled in a way that showed she was willing to forgive Corinne, even though she was reeling from the

indignity of being wronged. "It's okay, Anya. I'm just glad my name is finally cleared up," she said with a sigh.

"No! I said I'd seek out justice for you, Mom!" said Anya before turning to look at Corinne. "Apologize to my mom

now, Corinne!"

The three men present immediately frowned in unison.

Corinne simply smiled and said, "Hold your horses, Miss Anya. The doctor seems like he hasn't finished speaking

yet."

'My god, she's a stubborn one!' thought Anya unhappily.

"Doctor, this lady here seems to still hold some doubt about the test result, so why don't you explain it to her in a

way she'll understand?" said Anya.

"Well, she's right. I was about to say more about the test result before you cut in, Miss Anya. I hope you'll let me

finish speaking this time around."

Anya's face stiffened. "Okay..."

'How dare this doctor treat me this rudely when he accepted my money?*
