Corinne led Joey out of the room.

Edmund was leaning against the wall and scrolling through his phone. As soon as he heard the door opening, he

straightened himself respectfully. However, his dutiful expression changed to confusion when he saw Corinne with

Joey.

'What's going on? I've been standing guard here the whole time, so how did Miss Anya's kid go in without me

noticing?' he wondered.

"Miss Corinne, how did Joey get into your room?"

"I'm not sure either. I just happened to see him come running in from the balcony."

'Oh, so that's what happened! I'm so glad it wasn't my mistake,' thought Edmund.

"Forgive me, Miss Corinne," he said respectfully. ’I shouldn't have let Joey bother you. You can leave him with me

and head down to have your dinner. N

Corinne nodded and pulled Joey toward Edmund. However, the kid just grabbed her hand harder as if not wanting

to let go.

Joey had a particularly peaceful rest, and it had been such a long time since he had slept so soundly with none of

the frequent nightmares plaguing him. He especially liked how Corinne sang and patted him to sleep as if letting

him know he was in a safe space.

'This lady is a good guy...not the bad guy Mommy says she is! I want to be with her always...' thought Joey.

Edmund was worried Joey would annoy Corinne, so he quickly said, "Come here, Mister Joey. I'll bring you to your

mother."

This only made him grab Corinne's hand even tighter.

Corinne patted his head and said softly, "Do you remember what I told you just now?"

Joey did a double-take before nodding docilely. He then let go of her hand and walked over to where Edmund was

standing.

'This kid listens to Miss Corinne but not Miss Anya? Why, this is unbelievable...' he thought with shock.

Edmund scooped up Joey and carried him over to where Anya was.

Corinne watched with worry as the two of them left. She prayed Joey would be able to keep his feelings inside of

him.

Once she was in the dining room, she was greeted with a whole table of food. It was a feast fit for a king!

However, Cedric and the rest of the family were not there yet.

Corinne pulled out a chair, sat down, and decided to play her phone while waiting forthem.

However, it had not even been a hot minute before someone shrilly spoke," What are you doing here? Who says

you can sit here?"

Corinne looked up and saw Phoebe, dressed very luxuriously, looking down her nose at her. The other woman had

just come out from the back kitchen and she immediately took a dislike to Corinne, who she thought was Sunny's

tutor, when she saw her sitting down at the table.

’How dare a mere tutor sit down at the table with us?' she thought.

Corinne raised her eyebrow. "What's the matter, Miss Phoebe? Can't I sit here?"

"You can't seriously think you have the right to sit here. Why, you're just a lowly tutor! No no, you're not allowed to

sit at the same table as us. You must've forgotten your place. Get up now! The food on this table is for our special

guest...and not for the likes of you!"
