Chapter 911


    Marvin got out of the front passenger seat and rushed over angrily to where Corinne and the others


    were.


    As usual, he did not get a grasp of the situation before scolding her,” Corinne, how can you live your life


    as a wealthy man’s wife


    so carefreely when you caused so much suffering for others? I regret ever taking you in!”


    Lilliana also got down from the car. She looked at Corinne smugly.


    Corinne was unfazed by their arrival. She simply said calmly, ’Uncle Marvin, can you exin to me


    what you meant by that? Just


    what suffering did I cause to others to make youe running here to use me like this?”


    Marvin pointed at her angrily. “Don’t y dumb with me, you ingrate! I should’ve beaten you to death


    when I had the chance to


    spare myself from the disgrace you brought to the family!”


    ‘Ingrate? Howughable for him to call me that when he’s never raised me. All he had ever done was


    to feed me a few times


    before leaving me with his rtives in the countryside,’ thought Corinne.


    While she was grateful that he took her in when her mother asked him to, she repaid whatever debt


    she had. ‘How dare they


    use me like that when they should be grateful I didn’t pursue all the abuse they heaped upon me


    when I was little?’


    Francine stood with her arms on her hips and threatened, “Who do you think you are?! You better


    speak nicely, or I’ll get


    someone to kick you off our property!”


    Enter title…


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


    Before Jeremy followed Greg into his room, he turned and gave Francine a look. She knew that was


    his way of asking her to keep an eye on Corinne. For Jeremy’s sake, she could not hold back her anger


    the moment she saw someone shouting at Corinne. Marvin’s expression darkened at being scolded by


    someone much younger than him. However, he did not dare offend Francine


    since she was from a powerful family.


    ‘Excuse me, miss, but this is none of your business. Corinne is my adopted daughter, so I have the


    right to speak to her however


    I want.”


    As if those words would work on Francine! Irked by Marvin’s attitude, she was about to offer up a retort


    when Corinne patted her


    lightly on the shoulder.


    ‘Francine, head back inside now. I can handle this myself.”


    Not being able to unleash all her anger, Francine turned back to look at Corinne unhappily.


    “Corinne, I’m not doing this for you but for Jeremy. I can’t stand to see anyone speak so rudely to his


    wife!”


    Corinne smiled. “I know, but it’s really okay. Now, be a good girl and go back inside.”


    This elicited another frown from Francine. ‘Why is she speaking to me like I’m a kid?’


    Corinne knew Francine would not listen to her, so she gently pulled her to the side before stepping


    toward Marvin. “Uncle Marvin,


    why don’t you just get straight to the point?”


    Marvin frowned unhappily. “Where are your manners, child? Shouldn’t you invite us in before asking us


    to tell you the reason for


    our visit?”


    If this were any other day, Corinne might have invited them in to hear what they had to say, but not


    today. Pam and Greg had


    juste back. Greg, especially, was still wheelchair-bound and had notpletely recovered.


    ‘Who knows what this mad bunch of people will say if I let them in? I wouldn’t want Grandpa to get all


    worked up by them
