Chapter 847


    Lucas would never have treated Anya that way in the past. Even if she did something wrong, all she


    had to do was shed some crocodile tears for him to pity and forgive her!


    That feeling no longer existed, and she felt as though he did not care about her anymore.

    She knew he did not show her any concern at all. He was neither angry at her, nor did he want to teach


    her a lesson. She simply had no ce in his heart and was treated like an outsider! Anya was confused


    as to why that happened. She took Lucas’ hand and asked with reddened eyes, “What’s going on,


    Lucas? Do you hate me now?”


    Lucas froze slightly and was tongue-tied when she asked him that question.


    He looked at his younger half-sister whom he had doted on since she was young, but he could not


    grasp the feelings in his heart. For some reason, every action seemed to be very irritating, and he was


    especially annoyed by her maniptive habit of crying at the drop of a hat.


    Lucas shook off her hand and said, “I don’t. Stop overthinking and get some rest.


    “But Lucas…” Anya was insistent. She had been using his love for her to achieve her various goals


    over the years, so she was very upset to have lost the ability to manipte him to achieve her ends.


    She grabbed Lucas’ hand again and tried to be coquettish, “Lucas, I’m a little dizzy after I got my blood


    taken. Can you sit next to me and let me lean on you for a while? Just for a while, I promise…”


    Lucas wanted to refuse, but when he saw her pitiful begging, he felt a little conflicted and could not


    bear to say no.


    At that moment, someone knocked on the door of the ward.


    Lucas and Anya heard the sound and looked over to see who it was.


    Phoebe went over to open the door and saw Corinne standing right outside.


    “Hi there!” greeted Corinne smilingly. “I’m back!”


    Beside her was her tall, handsome partner, Jeremy. However, he did not look up at all and was busy


    typing on the phone as if replying to a message.


    Phoebe did not seem happy when she saw Corinne, and she forced an ugly smile. “Didn’t you already


    leave? Why did youe back?”


    Corinne raised an eyebrow and said, “I never said I was going to leave. I just said that I was going to


    get some fresh air. Your tone seems to suggest that I’m not wee here. Is that so?”


    As much as Phoebe hated the girl who messed up their entire household, she could not say that


    outright in front of everyone.


    She could onlyugh dryly, and Lucas immediately nudged her aside as soon as he walked over. Lucas


    opened the door wide and said in a warm voice, “Come in, Corinne.”


    Phoebe was stunned when Lucas shoved her aside. ‘What’s up with him? Why is he so warm toward


    Corinne? This isn’t his usual self! He looks down on everyone, and no one can ever get


    his attention! What makes Corinne so special?’


    Anya grimaced as she noticed something was amiss too. Lucas was bing increasingly indifferent


    to her, yet he was very enthusiastic toward Corinne.


    Corinne walked in leisurely and smiled brightly when she saw that Anya had returned too.” Hey! Miss


    Anya is back, too! Have you finished the check-up?”
