Chapter 809


    Lucas’ eyes darkened. In them, Anya could see irrevocable sternness and authority. Although she had


    been spoiled by Lucas since she was little, she still feared him when he was serious like


    this.


    “Well…just be nice to Corinne, then. Don’t get angry at her because she entered Luna’s room. by


    mistake and broke her favorite music box. I’ll go see Joey now…” said Anya.


    Even while she had no choice but to leave, she wanted him to remember what took ce. s, she did


    not get the result she wanted.


    Corinne did not n to stay a second longer in the room. “Mister Lucas, I’m sorry foring in here. I’ll


    show myself out, but you should know that I didn’t break the music box.”


    She then walked out of the room, but Lucas stopped her by grabbing her arm. “This room is off -limits


    to everyone, and no one can enter without my permission.”


    Corinne frowned. “So? Why don’t you juste out straight with how you’re going to punish me for


    coming in here without your permission?”


    Lucas closed the door, fearing she would try to escape because she did not want to listen to what he


    had to say.


    “Corinne, this room might be off-limits to everyone, but not you. You cane and go as you please


    since this was your room from the start, so I won’t punish you. In fact, I’m very happy to see you back


    home.”


    Corinne was momentarily stunned, but a mocking smile appeared on her face. She was right after all;


    she guessed that she must have had some sort of connection to this room ever since she heard the


    familiar tuneing from the music box.


    Lucas handed the broken music box to her. “This was your favorite music box when you were little. I


    was the one who gave it to you.”


    Corinne nced at it and said indifferently, “Is that so? Well, you can keep it then.”


    Lucas frowned. “I’ve asked the servant to keep this room in pristine condition so everything was exactly


    as you left them years ago. Do you remember anything about this room?”


    “No.”


    Lucas smiled ruefully. “It’s okay. I’m sure you’ll slowlye to remember everything after you move


    back here.”


    Corinne smiled. “Mister Lucas, you seemed to have mistaken something. I only came here today


    because your grandparents invited me toe, not because I n on moving back here.


    ”


    Lucas frowned. “Luna, I know you’re married to Jeremy now, so it’s a given you’re going to live with


    him, but can’t youe back to stay for a weekend sometime?”


    Corinne scowled. “Excuse me, but my name is Corinne Carew, not Luna Rivera!” she corrected sternly.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    “Why do you insist on keeping that name when the Shaws didn’t treat you that well?” Lucas asked


    helplessly.


    Corinne chuckled coldly. “Yes, the Shaws didn’t treat me well, and it’s also true we’re not rted by


    blood, but all that doesn’t matter since a surname is just a surname to me. It means nothing special.


    Having said that, I’d rather be a Carew than a Rivera!”


    Lucas frowned. “But why? Is it because of all the misunderstandings I had of you and how I treated


    you?”
