Chapter 784

“Mister Sunny, something happened!”

“What? What is it? Shock me again like that, and I’ll punch you,” said Sunny.

He was trying to figure out his math homework when Felix suddenly barged in and interrupted him.

“But something did happen. I saw your grandfather and grandmother talking to a guest like they were

very close or something,” replied Felix haplessly.

Hearing this angered Sunny even more. “What’s so weird about that? We have guests over all the time!

They’re either Grandpa’s old friends or Grandma’s bridge friends!”

Felix shook his head rapidly. “No, their guest is a young lady now, and you know her too!” Sunny

frowned. “A young lady who I know? Who is it? God, can you spit it out in one go?” “It’s Missus Holden!

You know, that lady you keep causing trouble for…”

Sunny immediately put down his pen and looked up in surprise. “Are you talking about Corinne?”

Felix nodded. “Yeah! That’s her! Don’t you find it strange at all, Mister Sunny? I mean, the Riveras and

the Holdens rarely cross each other’s threshold, yet your grandfather and grandmother treat Missus

Holden so warmly. I even heard them calling her ‘savior.”

Sunny did not hear the rest of what Felix said. At the mention of Corinne’s name, his eyes started

burning with anger. “How dare she come to our house! Where is she now? I’ve got a bone to pick with

her!”

“Mister Cedric is showing her around the garden. Mister Sunny, what did she do to you to make you so

angry at her?”

Sunny rolled up his sleeves as if getting ready for a fight. “That’s none of your business. Help me finish

my math homework. I’m going out for a while.”

“I’m afraid I can’t do that, Mister Sunny. Mister Lucas will fire me if he finds out,” said Felix helplessly.

“Do as I tell you! How would Lucas find out if you and I don’t say a word about this? Do it now!

Felix looked like he was about to cry. ‘I shouldn’t have told Mister Sunny what’s happening

downstairs…”

The Riveras’ entire compound covered an area of a couple of acres. Except for the mansion sitting in

the middle of the land, the rest of the spaces were full of various flowers, plants, and trees. It was a

beautiful sight to behold.

With one hand on his cane and the other supported by his servant, Cedric showed Corinne the flowers

he planted and which of the other plants were carefully cared for by Beatrice.

While listening to Cedric going on about the plants, Corinne made sure to keep an eye out for

clues. Oddly enough, she had no recollection of ever living in that mansion.

Corinne was five years old when Emily took her away from the family, so she should at least have

some memories of playing in the garden. Alas, no sense of familiarity or memories rushed back into her

mind.

To be more accurate, she seemed to have no memories from before the age of five.

Soon, they came to a field of dusty blue flowers which Corinne had never seen before. Turning around,

she was about to ask Cedric for the name of the flower when she noticed he did not look too good.

“Grandpa Cedric, are you okay?”

Cedric paused and put his hand to his head. “I’m okay. I was so excited about you coming that I forgot

to take my blood pressure medicine.”

“Mister Cedric, how could you’ve forgotten to take your medicine? It’s important you take them every

day. Let’s go back to take them now,” said his servant hurriedly.

Cedric wanted to show Corinne so much more. Besides, it would be rude to cut short the tour. Corinne

could tell what he was thinking, so she said, “It’s okay, Grandpa Cedric. Why don’t you go back to take

your medicine first? I’ll walk around for a while before going back to find you.”
