Chapter 608
The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 608
Anya-sitting in her wheelchair-dug her nails into her palms angrily when she saw Corinne following
Edgar to the study.
At that moment, Sunny stepped out from the crowd and asked in confusion, âAnya, why are you in a
wheelchair? Rosie, what happened?â
Afraid of being asked to check his homework by Lucas, Sunny had been hiding in the family room
playing games with his cousins, and by the time he came out, a crowd had already gathered. Not
knowing what happened, he immediately went up to see.
Rosie was still angry about the whole thing. âThat b*tch Corinne pushed Anya down the stair, causing
her to twist her ankle. I wonder whoâs the b*stard who brought her to this party!â
Sunny frowned in disbelief. âThatâs not possible. Rosie, you shouldnât speak nonsense! Corinne would
never do something like that.â
Anya snapped out of her trance and looked up vehemently at Sunny upon hearing his response. The
pain in her heart intensified, and there was an unprecedented look of gloominess in her eyes.
Sunny had never seen her looking like that, so he was suddenly at a loss for what to do. âAnya, whatâs
wrong?â
âSunny, I wasnât speaking nonsense! I saw what happened with my own two eyes. Itâs not like I was just
pulling things out of thin air in a bid to frame Corinne,â said Rosie angrily.
Sunny was not in agreement with her. âRosie, you do know youâve framed her before, right? I donât
even understand why you keep on bullying her. What did she ever do to you to deserve such treatment
from you?â
Rosie nearly choked with anger. âSunny, why donât you just admit youâve been brainwashed by
Corinne!â
A look of unhappiness flashed across Sunnyâs face.
âNo, Iâm not brainwashed by her! I just think that sheâs not the type of person to do something like this.
Besides, why would she push Anya down the stairs right in front of your face?
If Corinne really wanted to hurt Anya, she wouldâve done it when no one was looking. No one would be
that stupid enough to leave a witness. There must be a misunderstanding⦠Just like all the
misunderstandings you had with her previously,â
Stumped, there was nothing more Rosie wished she could do than to knock him on the head.
âWhy, Sunny, you littleâ¦â
Anya was at a point where she was about to burst into a tirade, but she did not want to lose control in
front of so many people. Instead, she forced herself to calm down.
Thatâs enough, Rosie. Let him be. Be mindful of the guests here⦠We wouldnât want to end up
becoming the laughingstock of the party, would we? Letâs go back to the guest room.â
Rosie was the one who came up with the plan to humiliate Corinne, though she never expected that
Anya would be the one who ended up being humiliated. Feeling guilty, she quickly said, âYes, of
course. Iâll push you back to the guest room now.â
She then started pushing Anyaâs wheelchair, but she suddenly stopped when she saw Corinne and
Edgar returning from the study. Rosie and Anya looked toward Corinne, wondering what Edgar could
have possibly talked to her about because it took them no time to return.
At that moment, Edgar led Corinne to the stage. He smiled at the confused guests and announced, âMy
honored friends and family, thank you for coming to my birthday party. I would like to take this
opportunity to announce some good news to you all.
âMiss Corinne, the lady standing right beside me here, will be a member of the Lovelace family from
now on. My wife and I have already accepted her as our honorary granddaughter.â
Gasps and the sound of awe rippled throughout the room. No one saw that coming at all.
After they had quietened down, a thunderous applause followed, and each guest congratulated Edgar
and Corinne.
Everyone there knew Edgar and Gertrude had never gotten over the pain of losing their daughter and
granddaughter, so it was good for them to take Corinne, who seemed to make them happy, as their
honorary granddaughter.
