“I said…” Corinne’s gaze turned murderous as she grinned maliciously. “I want you dead!” She then

reached out her hand.

Phoebe, thinking Corinne wanted to choke her, backed away in fright and nearly fell. Luckily, she was

caught before she fell.

“Are you okay, ma’am?” Corinne asked with concern after supporting her from falling.

Phoebe finally came back to her senses. She looked at Corinne in confusion and noticed that the girl

was smiling cordially instead of looking malevolent.

“This is so odd! Phoebe felt as though the brief episode was just an illusion, and she was gasping due

to the fright “What were you going to do to me?”

Corinne giggled before saying, “I’m sorry, ma’am. I was so happy that you wanted to raise my salary

tenfold that I couldn’t resist playing a joke on you!”

The flippant demeanor from Corinne left Phoebe unnerved. After regaining her composure, she pushed

Corinne away and adjusted her clothes. Finally, she lashed out unhappily, “I hope you won’t imprint

your sense of humor when you’re tutoring my son, Miss Carew!”

Corinne shook her finger in disapproval. “You might not understand this, ma’am, but there has to be

some form of entertainment in education to pique a student’s thirst for knowledge!”

Phoebe frowned in confusion over Corinne’s methods and said annoyedly, “Fine. I don’t care how your

teaching methods are, as long as you can show the results.”

Corinne nodded and assured her, “I understand. I will fulfill your expectations and improve your son’s

academic performance!”

“That’s more like it!’ Phoebe thought. She then uttered one final warning, “The Riveras” affairs have

nothing to do with you, so just pretend as if you didn’t hear what I told Sunny in his room!”

Corinne raised her hand and made a zipping gesture across her lips. “Don’t worry, ma’am. I’m the best

at keeping my lips sealed!”

“And don’t let Lucas know about the extra money I gave you!”

Corinne made an ‘OK’ gesture. “Roger that, ma’am!”

Phoebe waved her hand. “Great. You may leave now. Hurry and check on Sunny, or he won’t be able

to finish his homework in time!”

“I will,” Corinne said dutifully. She turned, smirked sarcastically, and left the room.

Once the door was closed and Corinne was gone, Phoebe patted her heart in shock and breathed a

sigh of relief. This tutor is nuts! I was almost scared to death!”

After calming herself down, she went out of the guest room and ran into Anya who happened to be

passing by.

Anya asked in confusion, “Why were you in the guest room, Mom? Where’s Dad? Isn’t he with you?”

Phoebe felt angst when Anya brought that man up.
