“Alright. Leave the soup. You should go back to the hospital and be with the child,” Lucas cut her off,then he picked up the document on the table and looked through it. His cold attitude. clearly showedthat he did not wish to talk to her anymore.

The document in his hand happened to be the sales proposal Corinne just submitted. Looking at thewell-organized words and data, Lucas could not help but think about what Corinne said before she left,regarding whether or not they should expand the sales of the food products.

He was thinking that if his sister, Lama, was still alive, would she have never had these food productsbefore because they were not promoted well enough? If she managed to have her favorite childhoodsnacks, would she start reminiscing about their past and think of returning home to visit her brother?

Perhaps the sales proposal Corinne drew up could be implemented.

Seeing that her brother did not wish to listen to her or even take another look at her anymore, Anya feltvery awkward standing in the office. She had no clue what to do as she was stuck in at very difficultposition.

Sunny-who was working on the papers at the side-also felt that something was very wrong with theatmosphere in the room. He looked up and glanced at his sister, then he looked at his indifferentbrother. He felt that something was very strange.

He sensed something was very weird when he was at home last night.

Ever since their childhood, his brother always doted on his sister the most. His brother would almostalways go along with whatever his sister said!

However, for some reason, his brother did not respond to his sister much last night. At that moment, hisbrother was so cold to his sister.

This never happened in the past. What exactly was going on at that moment?

Anya gave it a thought, then she walked forward to put the thermos flask on Lucas’s desk. After that,she said to his younger brother gently, “Sunny, stop working on your specimen paper for a moment. Gooutside and take a break. I have something I want to say to Lucas now. Come back later to have thesoup with Lucas later.”

“Oh, alright!”

That was exactly what Sunny wanted. He truly had no idea how to answer the question on thespecimen paper. He would only get scolded by his brother if he stayed in the office. Suddenly, his sistergave him a chance to leave, so without hesitating at all, he put down his pen and rushed out of there!

After Anya saw that Sunny left, she turned around to look at Lucas, who was perusing the documentseriously. Anya hesitated for a moment, then said with a catch in her throat. “Lucas, do you hate menow?”

Hearing his sister choking back a sob, Lucas looked up at her with a sense of exhaustion in hiscomplicated gaze. “Enough. Don’t cry so easily. You’re twenty now. You’re no longer a child. Youshould know that crying would not resolve any problems”

Anya truly sensed an impending doom. Her brother would always immediately cheer her when he sawher cry in the past. However, he did not do that that day. He was even a little annoyed that she cried.

“Lucas, I know what I did yesterday was wrong. I’ve been bad! But you have never given me a chanceto explain myself! I was forced to do it. I truly couldn’t think of any other way anymore.

Lucas picked up something questionable. He frowned and said, “You were forced to do it? Who forcedyou?”

Anya wiped her tears, feeling aggrieved. Then, she told him the story she made up in advance, “I didn’twant to use this method to drive Corinne away, but she bragged to me in the restroom that she waspregnant, and she said it was Jeremy’s baby! I panicked. How could I compete with her? Lucas, mybody can never bear a child anymore, so how can I compete with Corinne who has a healthy and fertilebody? If Jeremy replaces out she’s pregnant, he’ll push Joey and me aside. I was so scared. I was soafraid that Corinne would use her pregnancy to steal Jeremy away from me. That’s why I became afool for a moment and used such an extreme method. I’m sorry, Lucas! I know I was wrong. I know I’vemade a mistake.”

Lucas was dazed. Corine was pregnant?
