Chapter 594
Rosie glared at Corinne and said, “Is that so difficult to understand, Corinne? I’m asking you to go onstage and take
Anya’s place to sing ‘A Love Entranced”!”
Corinne frowned slightly. “Me? Taking her place for the performance? How is that helpful?”
Rosie rolled her eyes confidently and said, “It’s very helpful! You’ll be using heavy makeup when you’re singing on
stage, so no one can tell that you’re not her if they don’t look carefully! You can just go on stage, sing the song as
Anya, and we’ll treat it as if Anya was the one who came on stage to sing for the old man. No one will notice
anything!”
After hearing Rosie’s idea, Anya pondered it momentarily and soon understood her best friend’s intentions. Rosie
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdeliberately tried to make a fool out of Corinne with the performance. It did not take a genius to figure out that a
poor country girl like Corinne could never belt out an opera.
Corinne’s family finances and childhood environment hindered her from taking opera lessons. Once on stage, she
would make a fool of herself by singing nonsense, and Edgar hated those who did not appreciate opera by singing
out of tune and butchering his beloved classics.
Anya had made many preparations and practiced hard just to please Edgar with her special birthday gift. However,
judging from Edgar’s attitude toward her that day, she knew that she would not win his favor regardless of how well
she sang, and if she failed to sing to his satisfaction, he would probably shun her even more.
Therefore, Anya had never planned to go on stage to sing. She merely wanted to use xo.com fast updatethe
opportunity to create a ‘reason’ for why she could not go on stage because that would cause Lucas to get angry at
Corinne and immediately chase Corinne away.
Anya could see that Edgar had entertained the idea of treating Corinne like a granddaughter after his wife mistook
her for their daughter earlier. If they went ahead with Rosie’s idea of getting Corinne on stage to sing in Anya’s
place and ruin the old man’s beloved classic, he would get angry and drop the idea of treating Corinne like a
granddaughter.
A hint of sinisterness flashed in Anya’s eyes. ‘If I can’t win the old man’s heart, then that b*
tch Corinne will have even less of a chance to do so!’
She did not veto Rosie’s suggestion and merely feigned concern. “Don’t you think you’re putting Corinne in a tight
spot…”
Rosie did not take that advice to heart. “Not at all! I’m asking her to sing a song, not forcing her to be executed!
There’s no way you can go on stage with that injured foot, so why don’t you just let Corinne take your place?”
Anya nestled in her brother’s arms and looked helplessly at Corinne. “In that case, could you….

Corinne refused without hesitation, then cocked her eyebrow and looked at Rosie. “If you
want someone to help with Miss Anya’s present, then why don’t you-her best friend-go on stage and take her
place?”
Rosie’s complexion soured, and she blinked her eyes diffidently as she said, “I… I don’t know how to sing!”
Corinne found that very laughable. “Do you expect me to be able to do something that even you can’t do?”
Rosie doubled down on her remarks. “Even if you don’t know how to sing, you’d still be better than me! My specialty
is dancing. I can’t even sing a tune, let alone an entire opera! Besides, I have to take care of Anya offstage, so
there’s no way I can take her place on stage!”
