Chapter 838


    Anya had calmed down by then, so she went to her mother’s aid.


    “Lucas, you shouldn’t suspect Mom like this! Everyone knows saffron is good for beauty. And it’s not


    like she has a medical background. She only wanted to share the good stuff with Corinne. In any case,


    it’s just a matter of good intention, bad execution.”


    ‘Good intention? Her good intention nearly killed the baby in Corinne’s womb and caused Sunny to


    suffer from gastrointestinal bleeding!’ thought Lucas. He could not help but feel a sense of revulsion


    when he looked at Anya.


    Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. The doctor who had given them the test result hade


    back. “By the way, I forgot to return something to Miss Anya.”


    He walked over to Anya and took out the bank card from his white coat.


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


    “I’m sorry, Miss Anya,” he said solemnly, “but we have rules in the hospital saying we’re not allowed to


    ept bribe money or tamper with test results. I epted your bank card just now because I was


    afraid you wouldn’t stop harassing me until I epted it. Now that I’ve finished my job, I can give this


    back to you.”


    All the colors immediately drained out of Anya’s face. She did not and would not take back the card


    because if she did, everyone there would know her true colors. All the years she spent crafting her


    good girl image would be gone in an instant!


    However, she could not think of a way to weasel herself out of this either.


    Lucas took the card from the doctor’s hand to confirm it was, indeed, Anya’s name written on the card.


    His eyes were filled with disappointment and rage as he red at the pale-faced Anya. “You even know


    how to bribe the doctors with money?”


    Anya immediately snapped out of her shock. She shook her head rapidly. “No… No, it’s not like that,


    Lucas. I gave the doctor money because I was really worried about Sunny and wanted to make sure he


    gets the best treatment there is…”


    Lucas’ disappointment in Anya turned into disgust and hatred when he realized Anya was never going


    to stop lying. He scoffed angrily and said, “Then you should give the money to the doctor in charge of


    Sunny’s case instead of the doctor doing the test!”


    Anya was unable toe up with a retort to an argument like that. “No, Lucas… I…”


    Being beyond disappointed, Lucas smashed the bank card on the ground. He thought Phoebe was the


    lone perpetrator in this matter. As a mother, she wanted to help her daughter get back the man Corinne


    stole from her, which was why she decided to get rid of Corinne’s baby.


    In other words, he thought Anya did not know any better and just wanted to protect her mother. He had


    hoped Anya had nothing to do with carrying out the n, but the bank card proved him otherwise. Not


    only did Anya know about everything, but she was an aplice as well!


    ‘How did


    my sweet little sister turn out to be so evil? Just how many times have I fallen for her innocent act?’ he


    lamented to himself.


    Anya knew she had let Lucas down. She quickly threw herself into his arms and said pitifully, Lucas…


    this is all a misunderstanding! Things are not what you think they are…”


    Lucas pushed her away in disgust. “Even now you still won’t own up to your mistakes? Hmph!


    I will never believe a word you say again.”
