The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1028

Anya shakily grabbed Lucas' legs.

"No, Lucas. It's not like that… Corinne's ghost made me say all those things! Even in death, she insists on making life hell for me! This is what she wanted! She won't stop until everyone leaves me! Lucas, you can't let her fool you!"

Lucas looked down at her condescendingly and frowned with disgust. He then lifted his leg to make Anya let go and stepped back to distance himself from her.

Not caring how pathetic she looked, Anya crawled toward him again, hoping he would eventually come to her rescue as usual.

However, mid-way through, she heard Beatrice's voice coming from the door. "Anya, stop being so stubborn. Just admit you were wrong."

This stopped Anya in her tracks. She turned toward the door, and her eyes widened in shock when she saw Beatrice walking through the door with Corinne supporting her. A split second later, Cedric also appeared with his personal butler.

'Is that Corinne? Isn't she supposed to be dead?!' Anya snapped her head back to look at the dead body with the mangled face. It was right there!

"And in what world is it right to use other people? Seriously, you need to get your sense of entitlement in check! I bet it was your mother who taught you all these ridiculous values!"

Anya shook her head rapidly and said tearfully, "No, Grandma! It's not like that! I didn't…"

Cedric scoffed. "Give it up, Beatrice. There's no saving this one. She's becoming more like that scheming, unscrupulous, and unrepentant mother of hers."
