Chapter 728
Once Anya saw Corinne hanging up the phone, she beamed her signature ‘I’m so kind’ smile at her again. “Corinne,
you sure are one busy woman. Was that a guy who called?”
Corinne put away her phone, grabbed a cushion from the sofa, and hugged it to herself. “Yeah, it was indeed a
guy,” she said languidly.
A hint of ridicule flashed across Anya’s doe-like innocent eyes. “Does Jeremy know that you’re still in contact with
other guys?”
Corinne yawned and said, “Most probably not.”

Jeremy’s is outside working.”
Corinne turned to look at Anya with her brow raised. “Miss Anya, are you threatening me right now?”
“Of course not. Why would I ever threaten you? I’m just being nice enough to warn you of the consequences,” said
Anya sweetly.
Corinne smirked. “Fine. It doesn’t matter whether you’re threatening me or warning ’cause I don’t care if you tell
everyone you know that I’ve invited a man over. In fact, you can even call Jeremy and tell him now if you want.”
Seeing Corinne not panicking caused Anya to secretly grit her teeth in anger. Anya actually well aware Corinne was
not hiding any improper relationship since she was bold enough to ask a guy over the house. The only reason she
said what she said just now was to rile her up but alas, she did not succeed in doing that.
“Corinne, don’t get me wrong. I’m not the type to spread rumors about other people and don’t worry, I won’t tell
Jeremy either,” said Anya with a smile.
‘Huh! She’s not the type to spread rumors about other people? As if! She must be plotting something again…’
thought Corinne. After throwing Anya a side-eye, she decided not to prolong the conversation anymore.
Thus, it was a good thing that at that moment a servant came in with her takeout in hand. ” Ma’am, your delivery
order has arrived.”
Corinne nodded. “Thanks. You may leave it here.”
The servant put the takeout on the coffee table and left the living room. After throwing off the cushion, Corinne
went to unwrap her food. “Miss Anya, do you want some?”
Anya threw a disgusted glance at the takeout before squeezing a fake smile on her face, saying, “No, thanks. I’m

Corinne smiled nonchalantly at her and said, “Then if you don’t mind, can you please go away? I don’t like to have
an audience while I’m eating.”
The fake smile on Anya’s face stiffened. “Umm…”
At that moment, Francine entered the living room and said, “Anya, why are you sitting there with Corinne? Come
here. Don’t you know those cheap takeouts are made with ingredients that had gone bad? You wouldn’t want to get
sick from them, would you?”
She then pulled Anya up from the sofa and dragged her out the living room but before they
left, Anya managed to shove the glass of milk into Corinne’s hand.
