    Chapter 357


    Corinne simply scoffed.


    Anya watched the interaction between Corinne and Jeremy. How they were behaving was nothing out


    of the ordinary, yet it was the most intimate she had ever seen Jeremy being with another woman. Her


    eyes sank and she clenched her fists tightly, so tightly that her fingers dug into her palms.


    At that moment, Edmund also felt like they were intruding on something, so he quickly took out


    something he was sure Jeremy would be interested in..


    “Mister Jeremy, Mister Lucas asked me to give this to you. This phone used to belong to the female


    influencer. The original video remains untouched on the phone. We hope this will help you clear up all


    those unfounded rumors about Missus Holden.”


    Jeremy nced at Tommy, signaling him to take the phone.


    Tommy immediately took the phone from Edmund’s hand and checked the video stored inside. It was


    as Edmund said; only then did he nod at Jeremy.


    “Mister Jeremy, how do you intend to punish Mister Sunny?” asked Edmund.


    Jeremy did not answer him. Instead, he looked questioningly at Corinne with one eyebrow raised. He,


    who had always called the shots without consulting anybody, was actually asking for Corinne’s opinion.


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    Corinne was puzzled. ‘Why is he looking at me like that? Is he asking me toe up with the


    punishment?‘


    After thinking about it for a while, Corinne nced at Edmund, and then at the sad–looking Sunny.


    “Leave Sunny here. The rest of you can go now,” she saidnguidly.


    Edmund started to panic a little when he heard that!


    “Missus Holden, Mister Sunny is just a kid. I hope that…


    Corinne did not have to wait for him to finish speaking to know what he was going to say. She scoffed


    and interrupted him, “Your employer sure has rubbed off on you. If you have no intention to let us


    punish him, you shouldn’t have brought him here. Now that he’s here, you might as well just leave him


    here as I said!


    “Or is what you said just empty words? The Riveras are in the wrong here. Not to mention, I was just


    trying to help out a member of your family. Do you seriously think there’ll be no consequences to all the


    things the Riveras have done?”


    Edmund’s face became as ck as thunder, but he did not dare argue back. Initially, he thought that


    Jeremy would let Sunny off the hook for Anya’s sake, or even if Jeremy wanted to punish Sunny, he


    would do so lightly. Therefore, he never expected that the wild card Corinne would be so difficult to deal


    with.


    However, no matter how aggrieved Sunny felt, he did not want to let Corinne look down on him. He


    puffed up his chest, held his head up proudly, and stepped forward.


    “Edmund, take Anya home first. I’m going to stay here and take whatever’sing for me,” he said


    resolutely. He was willing to ept whatever punishment Corinne had for him.


    Edmund hesitated a little. He knew it would be as good as starting a war with the Holden family if he


    was to forcefully drag Sunny out of the ce then.


    This is out of my league. I should go back to ask Lucas for further instructions,‘ he thought.


    Thus, he made up his mind to retreat for the moment. He turned to Anya and said, “Let’s go, Miss.


    Anya.”


    Anya looked at Edmund and said nothing.


    Then, she looked pitifully at Jeremy–who was sitting at the head of the dining table–only to discover he


    was not even looking at her: Instead, all of his attention was focused on Corinne.


    Anya’s heart immediately sank. After thinking it through, she turned to Edmund and said, “Edmund, you


    should be in a rush to head back to Lucas‘ office, right?”


    Edmund modded. “Yes, Miss Anya. I’ll be heading to Mister Lucas‘ office after dropping you off at


    home.”


    “If that’s the case, you don’t need to send me home,” said Anya. Then, she looked at Jeremy and


    continued to say, “Jeremy, can I get a ride with youter? My house is just along the way to your office,


    so it should be convenient for you to give me a ride.”
