Chapter 355
“And this is how you repay her? Well, I guess it’ll be foolish of me to expect anything less than the Rivera family. You
must’ve been taught that it’s only right to repay those who helped you with revenge!”
Sunny felt both bitter and ashamed at having to admit to doing something he did not do. However, he had no
choice but to shoulder the burden for the sake of Anya and Lucas.
“No, that’s not true. Lucas and Anya had always taught me to not bite the hand that feeds me! It’s just that I was
too stupid to pay their words any mind. I now know I was in the wrong for slandering Corinne.
“Jeremy, it was I, and I alone, who did this. It doesn’t have anything to do with my family, so please don’t drag them
into this. I’m willing to take whatever punishment you have in mind for me.”
Jeremy scoffed. His face was as black as thunder. “How dare you tell me who I should and should not punish when
you’re the sinner? My poor wife helped your grandfather out of the kindness of her heart, and what did she get in
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtreturn? A bunch of people bullying her online! You and your whole family will surely pay…”
“Jeremy!” exclaimed Anya tearfully. She suddenly appeared in the dining room and had run over to protect Sunny.
She looked at Jeremy with her big, sad puppy eyes and said, “Sunny’s still just a kid! He didn’t know any better. I
was shocked to find out he’d do such a thing, too.
“Nevertheless, I’m his sister, and as his sister, I can’t bear to see him like this. Jeremy, for my sake, can’t you just
let him off the hook this time?”
Jeremy stared at the teary–eyed Anya with a frown on his face.
Noticing his hesitation, Anya quickly grabbed Sunny’s elbow and said, “Sunny, kneel now to show Jeremy how sorry
you are. He’s not that bad of a person, so he’ll surely forgive you if you just show how remorseful you are about the
whole thing.”
Sunny looked at Anya in astonishment. No matter how much he was unwilling to do what she said, he had no choice
but to do it. Frowning, he slowly got down on his knees when…
“Get up!” a woman’s voice rang down from upstairs before Sunny’s knee even hit the flxo.com fast updateoor.
It was Corinne.
Everyone immediately looked up, only to see Corinne walking down the stairs lazily yawning.
Jeremy’s eyes lit up at the sight of her. ‘My little rascal is finally awake.‘
Once she was downstairs, she side–eyed Sunny and said, “Boy, you need to man up. You shouldn’t kneel just
because someone told you to.”
Sunny had already straightened himself up, and he lost all of his usual arrogance the moment he saw Corinne
coming down the stairs. He dropped his head and said, “But, I did something bad to
you…
Corinne glanced at him and said, “Are you sure you were the one who did it?”

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSunny was a little taken aback. He looked up and looked at her in astonishment. ‘Could it be…she doesn’t think I
was the one who did it?‘
Anya immediately knew the situation would not turn out well for her if she allowed this to continue. Her eyes
became teary again as she pushed her way in front of Sunny and tearfully pleaded, “Corinne, you can take your
anger out on me, but please, just let Sunny go. He’s still young and has a lot to learn. If you let the matter slide this
time, Lucas and I will make sure he learns his lesson.”
Corinne raised one of her eyebrows. “Oh? Did I hear wrongly then? Didn’t this man here say that Jeremy could
punish Sunny however he sees fit? And yet here you are, pleading for us to let the matter slide. Who exactly is in
charge in the Rivera family? Or is this your family’s way of worming out of wrongdoings?”
Anya was speechless. Her face immediately stiffened, and she looked like she was going to burst into a sob. “No
matter what, he’s the only little brother I have. Please, I beg of you…”
Corinne immediately put her hands into a cross position and said, “Save your tears, Anya. They don’t work on me.
You should go cry to those who actually care about you.”
Then, she gestured meaningfully with her chin at the man sitting down at the dining table. Jeremy was totally
speechless.
