Chapter 995


    Phoebe uttered in surprise, "Lucas had a car ident? What happened? If I remember correctly, he


    didn''te home yesterday. Was it because of the ident?"


    Anya narrowed her eyes slyly. "I believe so. He probably didn''t go home because he was worried


    Grandpa and Grandma would be worried about it."


    Phoebe did not have any familial bonds with her stepson, Lucas. He never respected her since


    young anyway, so she could care less if he died in a car ident. In fact, she would be even


    happier if the ident cost him his life!


    Lucas''s death was the only way Sunny would be the Riveras'' heir. She would no longer have


    to bow to the Riveras if that was the case.


    Anya was not concerned about Lucas''s well-being either. She knew from a young age he only loved


    her because he saw Luna in her. She even had to work hard to receive that sort of affection from


    him!


    At that moment, a thought urred to Anya.


    "Do you know how Lucas got into a car ident?"


    From N?velDrama.Org.


    Phoebe did not care at all. "It doesn''t matter to me! He doesn''t love you anymore, so there''s no


    reason for you to worry about him. Just leave him be!"


    Anya shook her head. "I''m not worried about him. I''m worried about something else."


    Phoebe froze. "What is it?"


    "A van nearly ran into Corinne. Lucas got into the ident because he tried to protect her."


    Phoebe was shocked to hear that. "Lucas risked his life for that b*tch?"


    Anya''s eyes narrowed slightly, "Yeah. You think it''s strange too, don''t you? Why would someone as


    aloof as him risk his life to save a random woman?"


    Phoebe had yet to realize Anya''s true reasons for raising her question. She eximed in disgust,


    "Well, it''s all because that b*tch is an expert at seducing men. Even someone like your brother can''t


    escape her charm!"


    Anya frowned. "It''s not that at all! I can bet that Lucas isn''t in love with Corinne!"


    Phoebe wondered aloud, "What else could it be if he''s not in love with her? What other feelings will


    a man have toward a woman?"


    Anya looked at her mother. She put forth her hypothesis in a serious tone, "If he''s in a rtionship


    with Corinne, shouldn''t he feel repulsed that Corinne and Jeremy are together? He doesn''t seem to


    be jealous of Jeremy at all. However, he cares for Corinne and shows Jeremy more courtesy than


    before. Don''t you think that''s strange? None of it seems to make any sense to me!"


    Phoebe saw the logic in Anya''s reasoning. "I see what you mean now that you''ve put it that way. So


    what''s your theory on why Lucas cares so much about Corinne?"


    Anya was silent for a few seconds. She then voiced out the one possibility that she feared most.


    "Do you think Corinne might be the long-lost Luna? Luna is the only person that Lucas would risk


    his life for."


    Phoebe''s expression soured when she heard Luna''s name. In all her years at the Riveras, her


    greatest worry was that the missing Emily might return with Luna.


    "But… How?"
