Marvin then ordered angrily, “Come back here right now and get rid of all the wreaths in front of the house. Then you need to figure things out on your own and find a way to admit your mistakes to the media. Make sure you ask for everyone’s forgiveness! I don’t want our family to be dragged through the mud along with you!”

Corinne listened calmly and felt like laughing.

An old lady who had known her for less than a couple of months believed firmly in her innocence, going so far as to advise her not to go out in the coming days and be extra careful of her safety. On the other hand, her father wanted to thrust her into the public eye and let the netizens vent their anger so he could disassociate himself from her.

The difference was simply too huge.

Marvin had always treated her like that since she was a child. Whenever something bad happened, his first act would be to accuse her, reproach her, and scold her indiscriminately. He never cared to ask her for the truth of the matter, and he was never concerned as to whether someone had harmed her or accused her wrongly.

Not once did he ever stop to care for her.

When she was young, she often wondered why her father was different from other people’s fathers. She never felt any of that fatherly love that her classmates so often wrote about in their essays.

However, it would be wrong to say that Marvin was different from other people’s fathers. Judging from the way he treated Sherlyn, he could be regarded as a father who loved his daughter. He would forgive

whatever mistakes Sherlyn made, and he would be angry at her for only a short time. Once he forgave her, he would still love Sherlyn as much as he did before.

The same could not be said for Corinne.

At long last, she finally understood why Marvin treated her coldly–he always knew that Corinne was not his daughter, hence the complete lack of fatherly love toward her. The most she would get was a bit of his pity.

‘Then again, if Marvin knew from the beginning that I’m not related to him by blood, and if he never wanted to adopt me in the first place, why did he bring me home from the hospital? Why would he take me in without intending to raise me properly and instead just abandon me in the countryside to be taken care of by other people?‘

Those questions made Corinne feel puzzled.

Once the cyberbullying incident was behind her, she would find time to go back home and investigate Marvin’s past.

When Corinne still did not answer her, Marvin lashed out furiously. “Have you gone deaf, Corinne? Didn’t you hear what I said? Come back here and clean up this mess you made!”

Corinne came back to her senses and replied, “Yes, I heard you. But no, I won’t be going back. I’m busy. I’ll send someone over to deal with the wreaths, and I’ll make sure that your family won’t receive such strange items again. If that’s all, then I’m hanging up.”

Marvin was stunned to hear her cold attitude, and he felt that it was a little different compared to before. He then remarked unhappily, “Why are you talking with me with that kind of attitude?”

Corinne answered lazily, “Oh? What’s wrong with my attitude? Didn’t I already promise you that I’ll solve this matter that you complained about? Isn’t that good enough for you?”

Marvin gritted his teeth angrily. “You’ve lost it, Corinne! You’re becoming much ruder than before! You don’t even call me ‘Dad‘ when you talk to me! You’re rebelling now!”

“Let me talk to her!” Sherlyn took the phone, raised her makeup–laden face, and stared disdainfully at the camera.

“You’re a bringer of bad luck, Corinne! Life has been the worst ever since you came into the city from the countryside! You ruined my career a while ago, and now, everyone’s found out that the person who staged that accident is my sister! I’m being smeared, slandered, and cursed by everyone, and they’re putting me on the same level as you! I’m so ashamed! The point is, you need to settle this for me right away and go back to your country home! We don’t want you to stay in the city and bring bad luck to our family! Do I make myself clear?”

Corinne chuckled softly. “If I recall, you were the one who ruined your career. And who are you to tell me to go back to the countryside?”
