“I only went to the party because you asked me to. Look, what I’m saying is that it’s fine if you don’twant to give me a ride home, but you should at least drop me off at a place where I can hail a taxi,”said Corinne.

Lucas narrowed his eyes. “Miss Carew, you certainly have a lot of requests.”

Corinne brazenly looked back at him. “Any boss with a little bit of humanity left in him. wouldn’t havetreated their staff the way you treated me.”

Lucas laughed.

“What’s the matter, Miss Carew? You can’t handle something as simple as this? I seem to recall youtelling me that you’re different from my sister. What was it again?

“That she wouldn’t be able to handle any hardships because she’s a flower grown in a greenhousewhile you only get better with every challenge that comes your way because you’re like the weeds onthe sidewalk which won’t die no matter how much the others tried to kill it?

“If that’s the case, I look forward to you getting yourself out of this predicament. In fact, I have faith inyou to walk your way home from this highway.”

Corinne pursed her lips at Lucas’ words. She told herself to endure whatever abuse he threw at her forthe sake of replaceing out the truth about her mother. After all, that was why she was working for Lucas,no? Therefore, she had to finish what she started.

With that thought in mind, Corinne forced a smile onto her face. “Okay, Mister Lucas. I won’t disappointyou. I hope you get home safely and see you tomorrow at the office.”

She then opened the car door and got down without even looking back.

It was illegal for the car to stop on the highway, yet Lucas did just that so he could chase her

out of the car.

“That’s the reason why he took the highway. He had planned this all along! Huh! I can’t believe weeven share the same mother,’ thought Corinne.

After getting out of the car, it did not even take one second for the driver to drive the car away.Edmund-who sat in the front passenger seat-had a worried look on his face. He looked at thediminishing Corinne from the rearview mirror and finally could not hold it in any longer.

He turned to look at Lucas and said, “Mister Lucas, I don’t think it’s safe for a girl like Miss Carew to bewalking alone on the highway this late at night.”

Lucas raised his eyes. “Did she get to you too?”

Edmund blushed with embarrassment and quickly shook his head. “No! I’m just worried that it’llnegatively affect you and the company’s reputation if anything happens to her.”

Lucas smiled mockingly. “Don’t worry. She’s not the kind of woman who would let anything happen toherself.”

‘Not the kind of woman? Just what kind of woman is Mister Lucas talking about?’ Edmund did notunderstand Lucas’ change of attitude.

When Corinne first arrived, Lucas would worry about whether she was too cold and would instructEdmund to give her a jacket to put on. He could not figure out why Lucas would have the heart to throwCorinne on the highway like that.

Lucas put away his phone and looked outside the window at the dark sky with mixed emotions.

Earlier, while he was playing cards with Zeke and the others in Lunar Century Manor, Anya called himover on the phone and showed him the jacket he had lent to Corinne that the servants had picked up inthe yard.

According to what the servant said, the location where he found the jacket was right

underneath the second-floor bathroom window. Meaning to say, Corinne was indeed fooling aroundwith Cole in that room.

‘She must’ve jumped out of the bathroom window and pretended to have come from the outside inorder to prove her innocence after I knocked on the door.

‘She’s so devious and manipulative. What a two-faced hypocrite. She’s definitely not as simple as sheseems. Not only did she effortlessly have Jason wrapped around her little finger, but she used theblackout as an opportunity to jump into Jeremy’s arms even though she kept saying she didn’t want toever see him again.

‘Anya is right. Corinne must have an ulterior motive for coming to work for me,’ thought Lucas.
