Chapter 493


    Rosie pursed her lips and sighed. “Some people progress pretty quickly in their rtionship and end up


    sleeping together after meeting for the first time. We’re probably too conservative, Anya. I don’t


    understand how any girl could sleep around like that…”


    As soon as the girls that Anya brought overheard that, they took out their cell phones right and texted


    their friends toe over and see themotion. That was exactly the kind of effect Anya intended to


    achieve.


    Abya wanted everyone to witness for themselves that Corinne was an unchaste woman who slept with


    a random man. That way, Corinne would fall behind in the race to win Jeremy’s heart.

    Despite Anya’s malicious thoughts, she had a kind yet helpless expression on her face as she sighed.


    “Even though things progressed too quickly between Corinne and Cole, they’re both single, and they


    have the freedom to do what they want with each other. We shouldn’t be busybodies. Just let them


    spend their time with each other!”


    ‘Freedom? Must she fool around in the room with a man she just met under the pretext of freedom?’ A


    surge of anger came out of nowhere in Lucas’s heart, and he was somehow unable to suppress it.


    In the past two days, he saw that Corinne was a capable woman who had a good work ethic. Thus, his


    impression of her began to change, and he no longer felt that she was an immoral girl like he used to


    think.


    s, that good impression he had of her had turned to disappointment and disgust.


    ‘How could a good girl who acted the part of a proper woman and was capable in her work be so


    debauched as to ept the advances of another man who was just toying with her? Is this how her


    parents raised her?’


    Lucas’s patience enabled him to control his anger, but his voice was very calm and incredibly terrifying.


    “Open the bathroom door and tell her toe out, Anya!”


    Anya put on a show of persuading her brother before finally walking to the bathroom door. Naturally,


    she-more than anyone else-wanted to see Corinne’s image ruined after being made a fool in public.


    She walked up to the bathroom door, knocked on the door in a fake show of courtesy, and said, “I’m


    sorry, Corinne, but I’ll have to open the door if you don’te out!”


    There was still no response.


    Anya pretended as if she had no choice but to open the door and go in. “Corinne?”


    No one was in the bathroom, and the sound of the water came from the bathtub being filled.


    ‘That’s strange. Where is she?’


    Rosie went into the bathroom with Anya and was startled to see that there was no one there. The two


    of them then searched around in the bathroom but still could not find any trace of Corinne.


    A crowd had already gathered at the door of the room, and they were all waiting to see what kind of


    woman would be raunchy at a banquet that they could not wait to go upstairs and fool around with a


    man!


    After Anya told Lucas that there was no one in the bathroom, he walked into the bathroom to take a


    look before turning to Cole and asking, “Where’s Corinne?”


    Cole was just as baffled as they were. He did not know where Corinne went, nor how she managed to


    disappear into thin air. However, he was quick-witted enough to feign ignorance. and reply, “I don’t


    know any Corinne! The person you’re looking for isn’t here!”


    Lucas narrowed his eyes slightly in an intimidating manner. “I’ll ask you onest time. Where is


    Corinne?”


    Cole felt chills down his spine. “I d-d-don’t… know who-”


    “Mister Lucas! Were you looking for me?”


    Corinne’s voice suddenly came from behind the crowd.
