Chapter 994


    Anya''s pupils dted. ''Why would Lucas risk his life to protect Corinne? Something''s not right!''


    Anya''s prolonged silence prompted Rosie to say, "Why aren''t you saying anything, Anya? You need


    to help me! If Jeremy takes it up with me, my family will be done for!"


    Anya snapped back to her senses. "It''s not that I don''t want to help you, Rosie. I just can''t help you


    right now."


    Rosie was puzzled. "What do you mean, you can''t help me? Aren''t you supposed to be Jeremy''s


    savior? Jeremy will always listen to you if you say something to him!"


    Anya sighed and sobbed aggrievedly. "A lot of things have happened recently that you don''t know


    about. Jeremy doesn''t think that I''m his savior anymore, and he won''t ever listen to me anymore."


    "What?" Rosie eximed in shock. "How did that happen? We all know that you risked your life to


    save Jeremy and became infertile because of that. Is Jeremy going to just abandon you like that?


    He''s not supposed to be that kind of person!"


    Anya sobbed. "It''s all Corinne''s fault. She tricked Jeremy into believing she saved him and that I


    was lying to him all this while. Jeremy ate it all up and ignored me since then. Now, my mother and I


    have been kicked out of the house by my grandfather. We were sent to live in the countryside! I''ve


    lost everything thanks to Corinne! As much as I want to help you, Rosie, there''s nothing much I can


    do. I''m sorry..." She continued sobbing at the end of her sentence.

    Rosie was shocked and angry. "Corinne made Jeremy believe she was his savior?! Where did


    Corinne learn all these tricks? How was she even able to convince your family to kick you out when


    everyone doted on you since you were young?"


    Anya replied in a helpless, sarcastic tone, "She''s capable of anything if she can make Lucas risk his


    life for her." She manipted Rosie with thetter''s affection for Lucas.


    Rosie clutched her chest angrily on the other end of the line. "Corinne is a menace!"


    Anya had an idea and said, "I can''t help you now, Rosie. But what I do know is that our life would be


    so much more difficult if Corinne continues to be with Jeremy..."


    Rosie frowned worriedly. "What will it take for Corinne to leave him?"


    "Rosie," Anya began, "it''s only a matter of time for Jeremy to settle scores with your family after


    finding out you hired that man to kill Corinne. If Corinne''s dead, Jeremy''s feelings for me might


    return, and I might be able to persuade Jeremy to let you off..."


    Rosie went nk for a moment. After understanding what Anya was trying to say, she seemed to


    have made a firm decision and said, "I understand, Anya. You''ll hear from me soon!" The call ended


    at that.


    Anya grinned wickedly. She was hoping the bumbling Rosie would handle things better so there


    were no loose ends to worry about.


    Phoebe walked into Anya''s room and saw Anya spacing out by the window. She stepped forward


    and asked, "What''s on your mind, Anya? I ordered some takeout. You should eat some, too."


    Anya snapped back to her senses and asked mncholically, "Did you know that Lucas had a car


    ident yesterday?"
