Chapter 790

Sunny frowned. He hated nothing more than when his mother and sister encouraged him to take over

the family business, which he made clear he was uninterested in. He also hated when his mother made

baseless accusations about Lucas. While it was true Lucas was strict with him, giving him reason to

fear him, he never once doubted Lucas only had his best interest at

heart.

‘Mom is right about one thing, that Lucas and I didn’t come from the same mother, but he was the one

who brought me up. He taught me how to talk and read. He might not spoil me as much as he does to

Anya, but…no matter how strict he is to me, he’s never mistreated me either…’

Although Lucas objected to Sunny being a professional computer gamer and would scold him

whenever he asked for new gaming equipment… Without fail, a few days later, Edmund would show up

with the said gaming equipment in his room. Sunny knew without Lucas’ order, Edmund would never

dare to buy these things for him. Not only that, but Lucas had been teaching him the ropes of running

the family business. Alas, Sunny did not take anything he said seriously.

“Mom, I’m going to get mad if you keep talking about Lucas like that,” said Sunny seriously. “Oh, why

can’t you be half as mature as your sister?” Phoebe could not fight the regret she felt for birthing the

ungrateful Sunny.

She had gotten her wish of marrying into the Rivera family, but she never received the care and love

she wanted from Maxwell, not even when she pretended to be sick.

‘Sigh, I only have Anya on my side…since this good-for-nothing son of mine wouldn’t listen. to me,’

thought Phoebe.

Just then, the attached bathroom door opened, and out walked Corinne.

Hearing the noise, Phoebe turned to the direction it was coming from.

“Who… Who are you?” she asked in shock when she saw Corinne.

Corinne said nothing and simply glared at Phoebe. ‘So this is the woman who pretended to be best

friends with my mother, just to steal her husband away from her. And she’s instigating her son to fight

Lucas for the family business? Pah! What a vile, greedy woman!’

Even though Corinne had no love for Sunny, what spurred her even more was not wanting to see that

homewrecker Phoebe get what she wanted.

Phoebe grew uncomfortable by the way Corinne silently glared at her. Frowning, she turned to ask her

son, “Sunny, who’s this? Why didn’t you tell me there’s someone else in your room?”

‘How stupid can he get? He should’ve told me someone else was in the room. I wonder how much this

girl had heard of our conversation…’ thought Phoebe.

Sunny looked at Corinne and said, “Mom, she’s…”

“Mister Sunny, did you manage to solve the question just now?” interrupted Corinne.

Stunned by the sudden interruption, it took a while before Sunny answered, “I know how to do it, but I

haven’t got to the answer yet… Don’t you dare underestimate me, Corinne. Just

wait there and I’ll finish it now!”

“Very well, then. I can’t wait to see what answer you come up with,” Corinne said with a smile.

Through their conversation, realization suddenly dawned on Phoebe. “Oh, so you’re the home tutor?

Sunny, did Lucas get you another tutor again?”

Sunny was so focused on proving himself that he did not hear Phoebe’s question. Even so, Phoebe

was sure Corinne was a home tutor from how she worked at Sunny as soon as she came out of the

bathroom.
