The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 601
With that, the unhappiness In Anyaâs heart suddenly dissipated. From what happened, Rosieâs stupidity
was perhaps not so severe as to be completely useless in every situation. At the very least, she still
had value during that critical moment!
Anyaâs expression became cheery, and she smiled softly, âThank you for putting in a good word for me
in front of Grandpa!â
Rosie then said, âNo biggie, Anya! Weâre the best of friends, so you can bet on me to stop Corinne from
succeeding and showing off in your name! That darn b*tch mustâve pushed you down on purpose
earlier so you couldnât go on stage, and she could use that opportunity to show off! Donât worry, Anya,
Iâve already told someone to watch her take off her makeâup backstage, and Iâll make sure she wonât
get the chance to say anything to Mister Edgar!â
Anya smiled reassuringly and remembered that she was supposed to portray herself as a kindâhearted
person. She thus said hypocritically, âDonât say that about Corinne, Rosie. I donât think she did it on
purposeâ¦
âAs if anyone would believe that! Youâre just too naive, Anya, and you think too kindly of her!â
Rosie felt that her best friend was too kind and too gullible, and since they would both be sistersâinâlaw
in the future, her desire to protect Anya was even stronger after she had made up her mind to do so.
âLetâs not talk about Corinne anymore. Sheâs a bringer of bad luck! Anyway, we should be going soon. I
asked someone to send a wheelchair over since your foot is injured and you still canât walk. Iâll push
you to see Mister Edgar so you can hear what he wants to say to you.â
Anya nodded. âOkay.â
Lucas had arranged several servants to look after her there and left to deal with someone else. His
absence made it much easier for her to deal with the servants, and they did not object when they saw
Anya being pushed out on a wheelchair.
Rosie pushed Anya toward the elder Lovelaces and said, âMister Edgar, I brought Anya to meet you!â
Edgar looked over with a dignified expression and scrutinized Anya, who was sitting in a wheelchair
with her makeup. He noticed something was not right and asked in a deep voice, âHmm? Didnât you
singâ Farewell, My Loveâ earlier? Why are you wearing the costume for âA Love Entrancedâ?â
Anya was indeed wearing the costume for âA Love Entrancedâ because the costume for âFarewell, My
Love âwas at Corinneâs place. Since she still had a âfoot injuryâ, it would be inconvenient for her to meet
Corinne and change into the appropriate costume.
Furthermore, changing her makeup was very troublesome and timeâconsuming, and it would not be
ideal to keep the old man waiting for too long lest he became impatient.
However, she and Rosie had already thought of a reasonable explanation to bolster their cause.
Rosie began by saying, âThis is what happened, Mister Edgar. It was Anya who put on the costume
because she wanted to sing âA Love Entrancedâ as the encore for you. She had just managed to put on
the costume when she was called to meet you.â
Edgar narrowed his old but sharp eyes and said, âIs that so? Then why is she sitting in a wheelchair?
How did that happen?â
Anya was the one who answered him and explained with a distressed expression, âForgive my
rudeness
for not being able to stand up and talk to you. I was careless earlier because I was in such a hurry to
get off stage and change my costume that I sprained my ankleâ¦â
Edgar stared at her pitiful appearance for a while, and the doubts in his heart had been completely
dispelled He felt a bit of pity and appreciation for her despite never liking her in the past, and he had a
kind expression as he spoke.
âWell, your grandma and I appreciate your effort. You sang very well earlier, and since youâve hurt your
foot, thereâs no need for you to go on stage and sing âA Love Entrancedâ. You can always do so once
youâve recovered.â
