‘Corinne has a friend over?’ It was only then Pamela noticed someone standing anxiously behind Corinne.
“Oh, it’s Rosie!”
Rosie knew Pamela and Greg. However, she could not help but feel guilty when she saw them since Jeremy’s men
were looking for her all over the place.
“Grandpa Greg, Grandma Pamela, it’s been a while. How have you two been doing?”
“We’re both doing really well,” answered Pamela with a smile. “Corinne, why don’t you and Rosie head up now? I’ll
get the servant to deliver your food upstairs after they’ve heated them.”
“Okay. Thanks, Grandma Pamela,” said Corinne with a polite smile.

Pamela frowned at the mention of Anya. “Nonsense. They were never rivals to begin with since Jeremy had no

By the time she came out, a servant had laid out their lunch on the small table. Corinne was starving, so she quickly

“Please help yourself, Miss Rosie,” said Corinne with a smile.
Rosie did not come to eat. Frowning, she asked, “Corinne, did you bring me here to show off how happy you are to
be living with Jeremy?”
Corinne nearly spat out her food in laughter. “What makes you think that?”
Rosie glared at her. “Well, why would anybody bring their guest into their room?”
“You’re overthinking things. The reason I brought you into this room is because…”
