Chapter 833

“What mother would harm her child? Besides, have you forgotten I’ve also drank the pomegranate

juice? I’m fine, aren’t I? Even if it was caused by the pomegranate juice, it must be because Sunny ate

something that was incompatible with it. I refuse to believe Mom has anything to do with this!”

Everything Anya said sounded logical. She even used the example of herself having drunk the

pomegranate juice, so Lucas found it impossible to point out any holes in her argument. His suspicion

of Phoebe did lessen somewhat after that.

Corinne chuckled softly. “Miss Anya, have you forgotten how you ran to the bathroom to throw up all

the pomegranate juice after drinking it?”

Anya’s eyes flickered. She frowned and forced herself to suppress the rising anger inside of her before

she looked at Corinne pitifully.

“Corinne, I’m starting to think you enjoy putting our family in a mess. Do you have proof that. I threw up

the pomegranate juice? Can’t I go to the bathroom when I need to relieve myself? Why do you insist on

pushing the blame on my mom?”

Corinne listened calmly to Anya’s retort. To be honest, she was actually impressed at how quickly Anya

could think on her feet and by her Oscar-worthy performance.

At that moment, Maxwell-who had been silent all those while-cleared his throat and said, That’s

enough! Keep your voices down in the hospital. We’ll know what’s really going on when the test result

comes out!”

His words might be little, but they carried with them an undeniable authority. Hence, everyone fell silent

after that.

Anya and Phoebe exchanged glances, both of them tried to come up with the next step to get out of the

situation they brought upon themselves.

Corinne was in no rush to expose the mother-and-daughter duo. No bad deeds could be kept at secret

forever, so they could never escape.

Worried that the pregnant Corinne could not stand for too long, Jeremly led her to the chairs. not far

from the emergency ward. He then pushed her down lightly on the shoulder to make

her sit.

Jealousy immediately flowed out of Anya’s eyes like poison gas when she saw that. Not happy at the

preferential treatment, Anya walked over to them and said tearfully, “Jeremy, I know you like Corinne

and that’s why you’ll always take her side. But even so, how can you allow her to slander my mom like

that? You should do something about this…for my sake. I did save you in the past, didn’t I?”

Jeremy glanced at her. He found himself a little moved. ‘She’s right. She did save me, after all.”

“I’ve been silent because I think we should wait until the test result comes out,” he said after a while.

Corinne watched their interaction quietly. ‘Doesn’t Anya know any other trick than to emotionally

blackmail Jeremy with her savior act? What’s even more laughable is I was the one who saved Jeremy.

I’ve never seen such a shameless person as her… taking other people’s

credit and all. Ha!’

“Jeremy…” Anya reached out to tug at Jeremy’s sleeves. She had always been like this. Not daring to

hold his hand, she would instead pull his sleeves to get his attention.

However, this time she was stopped by Corinne, who wrapped her fingers around Anya’s wrist. like

handcuffs. “Miss Anya, are you trying to molest my husband in front of everyone?” she asked with a

smirk.

Anya’s face darkened. She tried to pull back her hand but could not.

“Corinne, what are you doing? You’re hurting me… Ah! Jeremy, help me. She’s hurting me!”
