Sunny was as shocked as anyone. “Damn it! How did this happen? Does Grandpa actually accept Corinne as his granddaughter? Doesn’t that make her my ‘cousin’ then?” Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

At that moment, Anya’s face had darkened. Unable to keep up her innocent act, she glared furiously at

Corinne.

‘Screw you, Corinne! Go to hell! You piece of sh’t, Corinne! How dare you steal what should have been mine away from me? If it weren’t for you, I would’ve been the one standing on that stage receiving praise from Grandpa. Corinne, you b*tch! Mark my words, I will make you pay for what happened today if it’s the last thing I do!”

To prevent herself from exploding in front of others, Anya composed herself and said, “I’m tired. Rosie, take me back to the quest room!”

Rosie, too, was furious at Corinne’s sudden good fortune, but alas, there was nothing she could do about it. She pushed Anya away from the crowd with the thought of coming up with a countermeasure once they returned to their room.

Corinne followed Edgar down from the stage after the announcement had ended. He then introduced her to some of his close relatives one by one. It took her a while to find an opening to extricate herself, leaving Edgar alone to bask in the glow of congratulations from the others.

Sunny walked over to her and asked interrogatively, “What did you do, Corinne? Why did my grandpa suddenly make you his granddaughter?”

Corinne walked to the buffet table and picked up a glass of juice. She took a sip before jokingly answering, “I didn’t do anything. Grandpa must’ve thought I was cute, so he asked me to be his

granddaughter.”

Sunny rolled his eyes and scoffed.

‘I admit she’s cute. Not only that, she’s beautiful, classy, real, quirky, and loveable, but even so… Grandpa isn’t someone who’d take in someone he met for the first time as his granddaughter. That’s totally impossible.’

Corinne continued sipping her juice casually. It was as if she was not shocked at how things turned out. After entering the study, Gertrude kept holding on to Corinne’s hand as though she was afraid Corinne would suddenly run off.

Edgar got straight to the point of wanting to make her their honorary granddaughter, to which she refused. He asked her why, and she gave him a plausible enough reason, However, he then pointed to the mentally unstable Gertrude and told Corinne about her condition, hoping she could reconsider.

Corinne hesitated a little when she looked down at Gertrude’s hand tightly gripping hers while she continuously muttered Emily’s name.

It was not that she did not want to tell them she was indeed their long-lost granddaughter. Corrine feared that doing so would make it harder for her to dig up what happened in the past. The people who worked in the dark to destroy all the evidence of how they hurt her mother could possibly take more precautions.

However, since it was only an honorary title… Her identity should still be safe, right?

It was difficult for Corinne to reject Edgar’s kindness, and she was also worried about Gertrude’s mental state. After thinking it through, she finally agreed.

Edgar hoped that she would spend at least one day a week with Gertrude, who had Alzheimer’s. Corinne

also agreed to that since it was nothing too difficult for her to carry out.
