Chapter 1017

Rosie did not believe a word Corinne said about Anya. After all, why would she when she grew up

being best friends with Anya? She believed she knew Anya the best in the world.

'No way would Anya use me! She's the kindest and sweetest person I know!' debated Rosie

internally.

However, there was no escaping from the truth staring at her. Her faith in Anya was completely

broken in that instant.

"How could you stab me in the back like this, Anya?"

Anya remained unfazed. "Rosie, I'm doing this for your own good," she said in mock compassion.

"The truth will always come out in the end. You might be able to get away with it for a moment, but

never forever.

"Sooner or later, the police will come for you, and you might even get a harsher sentence for hiding

your crime. Rosie, it's best if you turn yourself in now. The judge might show you some leniency for

doing that."

Rosie could not stand Anya's lying face. At this point, she wanted to take her down with her since

there was no way she was getting out of hurting Corinne.

She glared vehemently at her. "Fine! I admit I hired an outlaw to run Corinne over with a car! But

you, Anya, should shoulder some of the blame, too! You were the one who kept telling me what a

bad person Corinne was. Even before you came back from abroad, you kept hinting to me to make

trouble for her. Today was no exception. You indirectly told me to get rid of her. I wouldn't have done

so if it weren't for you!"

Lucas' eyes turned colder than ice when he heard what Rosie said. There was no trace of sibling

love for Anya when he looked at her. Instead, there was only hatred.

"You have a part in this too?" he asked.

Anya shook her head innocently. "No, Lucas. I don't! I really don't! Rosie is just saying that to drag

me down with her!"

Rosie chuckled softly. She knew she could never salvage her image in Lucas' mind. Thus, she had

no more fear of him finding out all the shady things she and Anya did to hurt Corinne.

'If I'm going down, Anya is going down with me!' she thought. She trusted her, yet she betrayed her

in the end.

"Oh, drop the act, Anya! It's funny that I never realized just how good your acting is until today. This

is what you get for stabbing me in the back! Can you honestly say you had no part in what

happened to Corinne today?

"Have you forgotten what you said to me over the phone? Well, let me refresh your memory. You

said only with Corinne dead can the two of us get the men of our dreams. You can't seriously tell me

that's not you hinting at me to get rid of her!"

"What are you talking about, Rosie?" whimpered Anya. "You shouldn't make up lies like that about

me! When did I ever ask you to get rid of Corinne? In fact, I remember clearly I tried to talk you out

of hurting her over the phone."

At that moment, Rosie felt nothing but hatred toward Anya, which was saying a lot as she never

hated her before. 'She should get an Oscar for her performance,' she thought sarcastically. 'In fact, I

might've believed her if I wasn't the one she's trying to frame.'

Feeling it would be useless to continue talking to Anya, Rosie turned her attention to Lucas, who

she knew she would never be able to marry in this life anymore.

"Lucas, I hired the outlaw to run over Corinne. Don't worry, I'll turn myself in later. But I hope you'll

see through Anya's lies and believe me when I say she was the one who asked me to get rid of

Corinne."

As she spoke, she took out her phone and passed it to Lucas. "In fact, you can check my call

history if you don't believe me…"
