Chapter 417
“I understand what happened now, Anya! You must’ve mistakenly thought Corinne wanted you to kneel down
before her but you lost your balance and fell to the ground. Then, Lucas just so happened to see that last part and
thought you fell because Corinne kicked you.”
Anya was speechless. ‘Is this idiot really my brother? How can he take her side and not mine?’
Corinne’s eyebrow quirked up. She was surprised by what Sunny said. ‘I guess he finally has some sense knocked
into him. He finally believes me after all those times of taking Anya’s side.’
Anya chuckled dryly and added to Sunny’s conclusion, “Yeah, that could be it. I could have misheard since I was
feeling a little dizzy from the cold…”
The image Anya liked to portray to others had always been one of kind and gentle, so even though she disagreed
with Sunny’s statement, she did not dare to argue with him.
After clearing up the misunderstanding, Sunny excitedly shoved the plate of chicken wing in front of Corinne’s

“Here, I’m giving you a chance to try my special sauce chicken wings! They’re a little cold now, but I can guarantee
that
you’ve never eaten a chicken wing as delicious as this in your whole life,” he said proudly.
Corinne was indeed hungry so she did not hesitate to grab a chicken wing from the place.
“Hey, this is quite good. Yum!”
Sunny lifted his chin smugly. “What did I say? I was telling the truth, right?”
Corinne gave him a thumbs-up. “Yup, you truly live up to your reputation of being the best barbecue cook in the
city! This is really great!”
Sunny was starting to feel embarrassed by all the praise she was heaping on him and to cover it up, he tooted his
own horn a bit more.
Anya watched sinisterly at the two of them eating and talking happily with each other. She could not help but feel
her territory had been encroached upon and the enemy was right inside her own home.
‘Why does it feel like I’m the outsider here? He’s my baby brother, not hers!’ thought Anya.
Suddenly, she smiled and approached them, “Sunny, can I try the chicken wings you’ve cooked?”
Then, she reached out to take a piece of the chicken wing in a bid to show Corinne that she was Sunny’s favorite
person in the whole world.
However, Sunny moved the plate away to prevent her from taking any of the chicken wings.
Anya’s face immediately darkened.
“Anya, you shouldn’t eat this since they’ve become cold. Have you forgotten that you’ll get a tummy ache if you eat
cold food?”
Anya was stunned but then she nodded happily. “Yes, that’s true. You’re so thoughtful, Sunny. I can always trust you
to take care of me, but you should extend that consideration to others too. I’m sure the cold chicken wings will
upset Corinne’s stomach too,” she said with a smile.
‘Ha! See that, Corinne? He doesn’t mind giving you cold food at all!’ thought Anya.
It was only then Sunny realized what he said was a little unfair to Corinne, so he quickly explained to her, “Ahem,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdon’t take this the wrong way, Corinne. My sister has been sickly since she was young, so she’ll get inflammation in
her gut if she eats any cold food. However, for us healthy people, we’ll be fine eating these cold chicken wings.”
To prove that he was not playing favorites, he then picked up a chicken wing and started to eat it.
Corinne had better things to do than to care about that. In fact, she would not even care a lick if Sunny was indeed
playing favorites. Anya was his sister after all, so it would be normal for him to give her preferential treatment.
“If that’s the case, can I have all the chicken wings here?” asked Corinne.
Happy to know that Corinne really loved his chicken wings. Sunny smiled proudly and said, “Of course! You can have
it all since you like it so much.”
Corinne accepted the plate of chicken wings without
hesitation. “Thanks! You can leave these here and the two of you can leave now.”
Sunny was speechless. He did not want to leave. For some
reason, he liked hanging out with Corinne. Not only was she funny but he felt as if she was family. He tried to come
up with an excuse to stay there with her when he suddenly realized something odd.
“Corinne, why is there a towel wrapped around your neck?” he asked curiously.
