Chapter 777


    Francine scoffed and muttered to herself, “She might as well continue with the threats instead of


    pretending to be forgiving…”


    Corinne turned to look at the mess on the floor. “I wouldn’t have asked you to clean up the house if you


    didn’t barge into my room and order me around. So tell me, do you now know what it feels to be forced


    to do something you don’t like?”


    Francine had lost her previous bravado, but because of her pride, she decided to stand her ground.


    “Who… Who do you think you are to teach me a lesson?!”


    “Let me ask you something. How old are you?” asked Corinne calmly.


    Francine rolled her eyes. “Twenty-one. Why?”


    “Okay, so you’re one year older than me, yet here you are living a life of an adult baby when you should


    be doing an internship right now.”


    “Why do I need to do an internship? Onlymoners need to go through an internship to find a job!


    Besides, I’m rich!”


    Corinne nodded. “You’re right. Being born into a family like yours means you’ll never have to worry


    about money, but what if you fall in love with someone one day? What do you think he’ll like about


    you?”


    Francine was speechless. It was not a hypothetical question to her since she still was madly in love


    with the hunk she wrote those love letters for, but he never returned her feelings. She never knew why


    either.


    “How would you feel if your future husband only married you for your money? And not because of how


    kind, independent, or charming you are? Which of the reasons do you think will ensure your marriage


    willst long?” asked Corinne again.


    Still, Francine remained silent.


    “You wonder why your brother would marry a country bumpkin like me instead of the beautiful and rich


    Anya, right? I mean, she is better than me in every way.”


    After thinking about it, Francine answered, “It’s because you know how to seduce my brother with your


    womanly wiles!”


    Instead of being angry, Corinneughed. “You’re just a pampered princess like Anya. You two have


    nothing better to do than to revolve your whole life around a guy to the point of losing yourself. All those


    plotting and scheming, only to have the poor guy hate you. Don’t you know the


    guys need to be the pursuers in the rtionship? As for myself, I don’t need anyone else to take care


    of me. I have my dreams and things to do. I don’t revolve my life around a guy, and that just makes him


    admire and respect me more.”


    Francine frowned. “So what you’re saying is, Anya’s mistake is loving Jeremy too much? And you don’t


    love him as much as Anya does?”


    Corinne smiled faintly. “I don’t need to prove to you just how much I love your

    Francine red at her. “Hmph! Then why are you telling me all this?”


    brother.”


    “You’re still young, so there’s still a chance of you turning over a new leaf. If you don’t believe.


    me, you can do your research online to see how all those socialites who have nothing better than to


    waste their time chasing after guys eventually end up. See how the guys they’re involved in use them


    and lose them.


    “Francine, while it’s true you have your family protecting you, you also need to learn to protect yourself.


    You have to know that your brother, your mom, and your dad cannot protect you forever.”


    Francine was starting to think what Corinne said was right, but she did not want to admit it. You and


    your bullsh*t! What guy would want to use me if I’m as useless as you said?” she said with a scoff.
