Chapter 809
Lucas’ eyes darkened. In them, Anya could see irrevocable sternness and authority. Although she had been spoiled
by Lucas since she was little, she still feared him when he was serious like
this.
“Well…just be nice to Corinne, then. Don’t get angry at her because she entered Luna’s room. by mistake and
broke her favorite music box. I’ll go see Joey now…” said Anya.
Even while she had no choice but to leave, she wanted him to remember what took place. Alas, she did not get the
result she wanted.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCorinne did not plan to stay a second longer in the room. “Mister Lucas, I’m sorry for coming in here. I’ll show
myself out, but you should know that I didn’t break the music box.”
She then walked out of the room, but Lucas stopped her by grabbing her arm. “This room is off -limits to everyone,
and no one can enter without my permission.”
Corinne frowned. “So? Why don’t you just come out straight with how you’re going to punish me for coming in here
without your permission?”
Lucas closed the door, fearing she would try to escape because she did not want to listen to what he had to say.
“Corinne, this room might be off-limits to everyone, but not you. You can come and go as you please since this was
your room from the start, so I won’t punish you. In fact, I’m very happy to see you back home.”
Corinne was momentarily stunned, but a mocking smile appeared on her face. She was right after all; she guessed
that she must have had some sort of connection to this room ever since she heard the familiar tune coming from
the music box.
Lucas handed the broken music box to her. “This was your favorite music box when you were little. I was the one
who gave it to you.”
Corinne glanced at it and said indifferently, “Is that so? Well, you can keep it then.”
Lucas frowned. “I’ve asked the servant to keep this room in pristine condition so everything was exactly as you left
them years ago. Do you remember anything about this room?”
“No.”
Lucas smiled ruefully. “It’s okay. I’m sure you’ll slowly come to remember everything after you move back here.”
Corinne smiled. “Mister Lucas, you seemed to have mistaken something. I only came here today because your
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgrandparents invited me to come, not because I plan on moving back here.
”
Lucas frowned. “Luna, I know you’re married to Jeremy now, so it’s a given you’re going to live with him, but can’t
you come back to stay for a weekend sometime?”
Corinne scowled. “Excuse me, but my name is Corinne Carew, not Luna Rivera!” she corrected sternly.
“Why do you insist on keeping that name when the Shaws didn’t treat you that well?” Lucas asked helplessly.
Corinne chuckled coldly. “Yes, the Shaws didn’t treat me well, and it’s also true we’re not related by blood, but all
that doesn’t matter since a surname is just a surname to me. It means nothing special. Having said that, I’d rather
be a Carew than a Rivera!”
Lucas frowned. “But why? Is it because of all the misunderstandings I had of you and how I treated you?”
