Chapter 841

Anya looked visibly unwell and she was seeing stars, but she still shook her head and refused.” No

thanks! I’m fine! I don’t need to have a check-up…”

Corinne dragged her to follow the doctor. “Look at you, Miss Anya! Must you insist that you’re fine when

your complexion is that bad? You’re going to make others worry about you! It’s just a check-up, not an

operation. What are you so afraid of?”

“I’m not afraid! I swear I’m fine! I don’t need to go…” Anya was unable to express her worries, but she

knew Corinne had an ulterior motive for making that suggestion. She was worried that she would walk

into a trap if she went.

Lucas then said in a booming voice, “You’ve been told to go, so just do it! There’s nothing wrong with

getting a checkup.”

Anya continued to struggle. “I’m fine. I’m not feeling sick at all…”

Lucas frowned. “Then we can always check to see if there are any potential issues. I don’t want you

crying that you’re unwell when we get home!”

He was beginning to lose a lot of patience with Anya. In the past, the care and love he had for his long-

lost sister, Luna, had been directed to Anya. However, with Luna’s return, that same care and love was

redirected from Anya and toward Luna instead.

As impatient as he was toward Anya, she was still his half-sister whom he grew up with. He knew she

was frail, so he still had some concern for her. Anya frequently complained about having discomfort, so

it was better to get her checked up. That would save everyone the frustration of having to bear with her

repeated complaints when they got home.

Anya did not have any other excuse to refuse after Lucas insisted on sending him to the doctor.

Corinne smiled and waved at Anya. “You must cooperate with the check-up and listen to the doctor’s

advice, Miss Anya!”

Anya gritted her teeth resentfully after hearing Corinne’s annoying voice! ‘D*mn you, Corinne! God

knows what sort of wicked scheme a hypocrite like you is planning…’

After Anya went out with the doctor, Phoebe became the sole target of castigation.

Lucas glanced coldly at Phoebe but did not press on too harshly. She was his elder, after all, and his

father was still around too.

He would settle things later once Sunny woke up.

Phoebe knew that her situation was not looking good, so she tried her best to find a way to reverse it.

As a stepmother, Lucas never considered her to have any status in the family. She had no say in

anything, so she wanted to start by persuading Maxwell.

“Hear me out, Maxwell…”

Maxwell waved his hands coldly and said, “Enough! There’s no point explaining to me right now. You’d

better pray that Sunny is safe, or the Riveras won’t forgive you!”
