    Chapter 624


    Anya was seated in her wheelchair and smiling sinisterly and smugly. It was a good thing Lucas


    brought her to this hospital. If not she would not have seen Jeremy and Corinne going into the OB-GYN


    department together.


    Thus, she bribed the OB-GYN specialist to tamper with the blood test result because she knew Jeremy


    would not pay any attention to her and Joey anymore once he found out Corinne was pregnant with his


    kid. No way was she going to let that happen!


    Jeremy must think Corinne is a loose woman after finding out the baby she’s carrying isn’t his. He’ll


    stop thinking about her now. Ha! You failed to steal Jeremy away from me this time, Corinne Carew.”


    Suddenly, Rosie’s voice came from behind her. “Anya, why did youe here without telling me?”

    Anya turned her wheelchair around and beamed an innocent smile at Rosie. “Oh, I came out to get


    some fresh air ’cause I was feeling a little suffocated in the ward How’s my brother, Rosie?”


    Rosie frowned with sadness at the thought of Lucas’s injuries. She could not bear to see someone she


    loved getting hurt like that.


    “The doctor put him in a cast. He said there is some minor bone breakage that would require him to


    take some bedrest for a while. Edmund is currently taking care of him as we speak ”


    Anya pretended to sigh sadly and said, “I hope he won’t suffer any after-effects from this. It never


    crossed my mind that Jeremy would fight with Lucas because of Corinne.”


    At the mention of ‘Corinne the instigator’, Rosie could not help but grit her teeth in hatred.


    *Jeremy always respected Lucas so the fact that he would start a fight with him must be because


    Corinne said something to drive a wedge between them. That Corinne is nothing but a menace! The


    more Rosie thought about her, the angrier she got. How she wished she could strangle that woman


    there and then!


    As usual, Anya put on her weak and helpless act. “I also think Corinne went too far this time. She


    caused both Jeremy and Lucas to get hurt! I wonder if Jeremy is okay? Did he go to see a doctor?”


    “And you too, Anya! Don’t forget you’re in a wheelchair because of her too! Trouble seems to follow her


    wherever she goes. She’s just bad luck! Just wait! I swear I’m going to get someone to get rid of her


    once


    and for all,” said Rosie angrily.


    Anya secretly smiled when she saw Rosie getting all riled up about Corinne. Yes, this is exactly what I -


    want. I hope this stupid woman gets rid of Corinne quickly so I don’t have to do it myself. This way I can


    keep my hands clean so no one will ever suspect me.”


    However, she had good reason to be very afraid after witnessing what happened in the Lovces


    today. The three of them – Anya, Lucas, and Rosie – were chatting in the guest room when a knock


    suddenly came from the door but before any one of them could open it, Jeremy barged in with a bang,


    grabbed Lucas by the cor, and punched him in the face.


    Lucas, who was punched for no reason, became blinded by anger, and without even thinking about it,


    he punched Jeremy back. Thus, the two men ended up in an all-out brawl. They were evenly matched


    in strength and both of them sustained quite several injuries.


    Even though the two families did not get along, they always maintained the basic etiquette on the


    surface. Therefore, nothing as unseemly as a big fistfight ever urred between the two families.


    Everything happened so fast that it shocked Anya and Rosie. They quickly called Edmund over to


    break up the fight.


    Lucas wiped the blood away from the corner of his lips and stared at Jeremy contemptuously. “You


    dare to betray my sister and raise your fist against me for a wild girl who dumped you? Jeremy, have


    you gone insane?”


    Jeremy’s eyes were as cold as ice. “You do well to remember that no matter what she did, you’re not.


    allowed to touch Corinne! You and the whole Rivera Group would die by my hands if you dare to so


    much as look at her wrong!”


    After that, he got up, straightened his tie, and cracked his neck. He then walked out of the room without


    even looking back at anyone, leaving the shocked girls and injured Lucas in his wake.


    Anya always knew Corinne was important to Jeremy but it was only then she realized just how


    important she was to him. ‘Did he lose his cool and rush over her just to avenge her?”


    Thus, it was easy to see why Anya was jealous of Corinne and why she wanted her dead. ‘I must get


    rid of her as soon as possible! she thought.
