Chapter 317

Chapter 317

Lucas pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling a little tired. He had always given in to Anya, and

sometimes, he worried he was spoiling her too much.

Anya turned her head to look out of the window, and even though she got what she wanted, there was

still a disdainful expression on her face. She did not really care whether Lucas had her photo hanging

in his car or whether he would think of her while driving; all she wanted was to win against Luna.

Ever since Anya was young, everyone around her always told her that she was lucky to be born into

the Rivera family. She was treated like a little princess and was loved by thousands.

However, no one had any idea that no matter how much she was loved, she would never be able to win

against that stupid stepsister of hers who had been missing for more than a decade.

To commemorate Luna, her father spent huge sums of money to build Lunar Century Manor in the city

center where every inch of the land was worth more than a bar of gold.

Then there was Lucas, who would always put the missing Luna before Anya. When she was young and

in order to be favored by Lucas, Anya asked someone to tattoo an identical cherry- red mole in

between her eyebrows so that she would look like Luna.

Frankly speaking, she loathed the whole thing but had no choice because Lucas did not like her at first

on account of him and her not coming from the same mother. She thought that

by imitating Luna, Lucas would like her more, and she was right! Look at how Lucas spoiled her.

2/3

In fact, one could say that it was not Lucas who was living under the shadow of Luna’s disappearance

but herself! That was why, out of the whole world, she hated Luna the most. Anya wished for nothing

more than for Luna to be wiped out from everyone’s memories.

What was even more unacceptable to Anya was that she was not the most special person to Jeremy.

To say that she was unhappy would be an overstatement. In fact, she would not be happy until she was

the most important and most special person in everyone’s lives.

“Lucas, I feel scared…” Anya suddenly said in a trembling voice.

Lucas thought she was not feeling well. He stopped the car by the side of the road and gently asked,

“What’s wrong? There’s nothing to be scared of as long as I’m by your side.”

Anya took her brother’s hand and said anxiously, “I’m a little afraid of Corinne. I always feel that she

has a lot of hostility toward me. Coupled with the fact that Rosie did such a stupid thing… Well, I’m

scared that Corinne would take her revenge on me.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll arrange for someone to protect you. never let anyone hurt you.”

I’ll

Lucas could not help but feel annoyed whenever he thought of how Corinne rudely ignored him, and he

reminded himself to not underestimate her. He already lost a sister, and he would be d*mned if he was

going to lose another.

At that moment, a sports car was coming from the opposite direction.

A multitude of feelings were bubbling inside Corinne when she turned her head to look at Jeremy,

whose eyes were focused on the road. She pursed her lips and said, “Thank you, Mister.”

Jeremy glanced at her and asked, “What are you thanking me for?”

“I’m thanking you for helping me find the new witness in

time today, or the truth of this matter wouldn’t be revealed so soon.”

“How did you know that I was the one who found the new witness?”

“Umm…” The question stumped Corinne.

Jeremy never told her that he was the one who found the new witness. As far as he knew, Corinne was

just a country

bumpkin. Plus, there was no reliable channel to obtain undisclosed information such as this.

‘It’s not like I can tell him it was Aaron who reported it to me,‘ thought Corinne.
