Chapter 911

Marvin got out of the front passenger seat and rushed over angrily to where Corinne and the others

were.

As usual, he did not get a grasp of the situation before scolding her,” Corinne, how can you live your life

as a wealthy man’s wife

so carefreely when you caused so much suffering for others? I regret ever taking you in!”

Lilliana also got down from the car. She looked at Corinne smugly.

Corinne was unfazed by their arrival. She simply said calmly, ’Uncle Marvin, can you explain to me

what you meant by that? Just

what suffering did I cause to others to make you come running here to accuse me like this?”

Marvin pointed at her angrily. “Don’t play dumb with me, you ingrate! I should’ve beaten you to death

when I had the chance to

spare myself from the disgrace you brought to the family!”

‘Ingrate? How laughable for him to call me that when he’s never raised me. All he had ever done was

to feed me a few times

before leaving me with his relatives in the countryside,’ thought Corinne.

While she was grateful that he took her in when her mother asked him to, she repaid whatever debt

she had. ‘How dare they

accuse me like that when they should be grateful I didn’t pursue all the abuse they heaped upon me

when I was little?’

Francine stood with her arms on her hips and threatened, “Who do you think you are?! You better

speak nicely, or I’ll get

someone to kick you off our property!”

Enter title…

Before Jeremy followed Greg into his room, he turned and gave Francine a look. She knew that was

his way of asking her to keep an eye on Corinne. For Jeremy’s sake, she could not hold back her anger

the moment she saw someone shouting at Corinne. Marvin’s expression darkened at being scolded by

someone much younger than him. However, he did not dare offend Francine

since she was from a powerful family.

‘Excuse me, miss, but this is none of your business. Corinne is my adopted daughter, so I have the

right to speak to her however

I want.”

As if those words would work on Francine! Irked by Marvin’s attitude, she was about to offer up a retort

when Corinne patted her

lightly on the shoulder.

‘Francine, head back inside now. I can handle this myself.”

Not being able to unleash all her anger, Francine turned back to look at Corinne unhappily.

“Corinne, I’m not doing this for you but for Jeremy. I can’t stand to see anyone speak so rudely to his

wife!”

Corinne smiled. “I know, but it’s really okay. Now, be a good girl and go back inside.”

This elicited another frown from Francine. ‘Why is she speaking to me like I’m a kid?’

Corinne knew Francine would not listen to her, so she gently pulled her to the side before stepping

toward Marvin. “Uncle Marvin,

why don’t you just get straight to the point?”

Marvin frowned unhappily. “Where are your manners, child? Shouldn’t you invite us in before asking us

to tell you the reason for

our visit?”

If this were any other day, Corinne might have invited them in to hear what they had to say, but not

today. Pamela and Greg had

just come back. Greg, especially, was still wheelchair-bound and had not completely recovered.

‘Who knows what this mad bunch of people will say if I let them in? I wouldn’t want Grandpa to get all

worked up by them
