Chapter 822


    Cedric agreed with Lucas. “He’s right! Phoebe, you shouldn’t have frightened my savior like that!


    Apologize to her now!”


    No matter how proud Phoebe was and how much she was unwilling to apologize to Corinne, she had


    no choice but to do so since Cedric had spoken. Defying his orders would just make her seem like a


    bad daughter-inw.


    ‘Hmph! I’ll show this stupid girl what I’m made of. There’ll be timeter to teach her a lesson, ‘she told


    herself.


    Thus, she squeezed out a smile and said courteously, “I’m sorry, Miss Corinne. It was my fault for


    treating you, our esteemed guest, so rudely.”


    Corinne smiled. “I ept your apology since you didn’t do it on purpose. No one told you who I was,


    after all.”


    Phoebe’s smile froze. ‘What is this little b*tch implying? Does she think I’m not important enough in this


    family, and that’s why no one told me of her arrival? Ugh, I wish she’ll just drop dead. No, I must not let


    my guard down around this sneaky little b*tch.”

    Lucas still had his rose-colored sses on when it came to Corinne, so he did not catch on to her


    sneak attack. In any case, it would always be other people’s fault when it came to his precious Luna.


    He decided to let the matter rest after seeing Corinne had returned to her calm self.


    He then walked over to the table and pulled out one of the chairs. “Corinne, sit here.”


    Unlike all the previous times, Corinne decided to take up on his offer to annoy Phoebe and Anya. She


    sat next to Beatrice, which was where Anya usually sat. Seeing Corinne taking up her ce caused


    Anya’s eyes to redden with anger. She nearly lost it but managed to calm herself, though she could not


    help but grit her teeth.


    ‘F*ck. I can’t believe Lucas let an outsider like her sit in my ce!’


    After Corinne sat down, Lucas pulled out the other chair and sat down beside her.


    Beatrice ced a chicken drumstick on Corinne’s te. “You must be hungry, dear. Eat this.”


    Corinne smiled politely. “Thank you, Grandma Beatrice, but I can’t finish all the food here.”


    “Grandpa Cedric and I didn’t know what you like to eat, so we asked the kitchen to prepare all kinds of


    food. Don’t be shy, okay? Just eat whatever you like.”


    “Yes, don’t be shy, Corinne! You can eat whatever you want, and if there’s something you don’t like, just


    ask Lucas here to take it away from you,” said Cedric.


    Corinne felt a little pressured when she saw just how much food was on the table. “But this is too


    much…”


    “Just take it as a kind gesture from Grandpa and Grandma. In any case, you can just eat how much


    you want,” said Lucas gently as he put some of the sd he made himself on Corinne’s te. Of


    course, he had an ulterior motive for doing that since he remembered Corinne used to like this kind of


    sd when she was little.


    Anya dug her fingernails into her palm when she saw how loving everyone was behaving toward


    Corinne.


    At that moment, Maxwell came in and first greeted Cedric and Beatrice. “Hello, Mom and Dad.


    Cedric nodded and introduced Corinne to him. “Maxwell, this was the girl who saved mest time.”


    Maxwell sat next to Cedric before turning to look at Corinne. He nodded and smiled at her.” We met in


    the garden. Miss Corinne, I didn’t get the chance to thank you properly then, so thank you for helping


    my father.”


    Corinne did not want to talk to her good-for-nothing father, so she replied indifferently, There’s no need


    to thank me. I was just doing what anyone else would’ve done.”
