Chapter 1029
Anya looked at Cedric pitifully. "Grandpa, I didn''t! Corinne made me say all those things…"
Cedric turned away in disappointment, unable to stand the sight of her. After all, she had brought
nothing but shame to the family.
Unable to get sympathy from anyone, Anya broke down into hysterics. Pointing at Corinne, she
said, "This is all her doing! She''s the mastermind behind all of this! She''s supposed to be dead, yet
she''s standing there without a scratch on her!"

Both Cedric and Beatrice frowned at how unrepentant Anya was.
Corinne looked down at Anya and chuckled softly. "Without a scratch on me? Are you blind, Anya?
Do you not see this thing on my head?" she asked as she pointed to her bandaged head.
Anya frowned. If she could, she would have killed Corinne with her re.
"Why did you pretend to be dead if it weren''t to trick me into saying all those things?!"
"You''re right," said Corinne with a nod. "I pretended to be dead for the precise reason you just
mentioned."
Anya''s eyes lit up. She quickly turned to Beatrice and Cedric and said pitifully, "Grandpa, Grandma,
Lucas, you heard what she said! She admitted she tricked me into saying all those things."
However, she failed to elicit the response she wanted from them. The three of them simply looked
at her as though she was a lost cause.
"You''re right, I did trick you into saying those things," said Corinne calmly. "I made you think I was
dead so you''ll let your guard down. Only then would you be susceptible enough to reveal your real
self. Miss Anya, those things you said about everybody just now were your real thoughts, were they
not?"
Anya crawled toward Corinne like a mad woman. She gnashed her teeth and screamed, "No! You
set me up! You tricked me into saying those words! This is all your fault! All your fault!"
Corinne stepped back just in time to prevent Anya from touching her. At the same time, Lucas
stepped in front of Corinne and kicked Anya away.
Anya fell face down to the floor again. After struggling to prop herself up, she continued to scream
hysterically, "Did you just kick me, Lucas? And all because of that b*tch? Hahahaha! And you say
you''re not a hypocrite? Who in the world would kick their sister to save an outsider? How am I
supposed to believe you when you say you love me? You can''t possibly still think you''re a good big
brother after kicking me away!"
Lucas looked at her with both anger and chagrin. "It''s my fault for spoiling you so much that you
turned out to be so horrible! What I failed to do as a brother, I''ll let sheer experience teach you!"
He looked toward the door and said, "Officers, you may alle in now. Please take her away, and
give her the just punishment she deserves!"
Anya was shocked. ''The police are here?'' She instinctively turned toward the door.
