Chapter 732
Fifteen minutes later, Lucas brought out a hot bowl of oatmeal and placed it gently in front of Corinne. “Here. Try
some.”
Corinne looked at the oatmeal before picking up the spoon to stir it, revealing some dried nuts and berries within it.
She looked at Lucas and asked, “Oatmeal with nuts and berries?”
Lucas nodded. “Yeah. You need all the vitamins you can get now that you’re carrying a baby inside of you. This used
to be your favorite when you were…”
Hearing this, Corinne suddenly felt a shockwave coursing through her body, causing her to knit her brows together
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtand her eyes to waver as the realization dawned on her.
Lucas found it hard to continue when he saw the frown on Corinne’s face so he stopped speaking, worried that
revealing what he knew then would affect her appetite. “Ahem. What I meant to say was, eat the oatmeal while it’s
still hot.”
Corinne regained her senses and said, “Thank you.” She narrowed her eyes, scooped up a spoonful of oatmeal,
blew on it before putting it in her mouth. ‘Oh my god! This is delicious!” The oatmeal was unexpectedly up to her
taste and the sweetness level was just right. However, she had no recollection of ever eating this when she was
young.
Lucas sat back down in his original seat and gently looked at her. His eyes seemed to contain within a thousand
storms as he tried to suppress all the emotions of finally finding his long- lost sister.
“How’s the taste?” he asked softly and tentatively.
Corinne gave him a nod of approval and was about to praise him when…
“Lucas! What are you doing here?” cried Anya from the stairs. She quickly ran down the stairs, made her way to
the dining room, and looked at Lucas curiously.
Lucas was surprised to see Anya coming down from the stairs too. “Anya, what are you doing here?” he asked with
a stern frown on his face.
Anya averted her gaze out of guilt. “Umm… I came here to find Francine. What about you? Why did you come?”
She found it extremely strange that Lucas would show his face around the Holdens’ mansion. Francine, who had
followed Anya down the stairs, immediately knew the reason for Lucas’ visit as soon as she laid eyes on him. “Need
you ask, Anya? Lucas must’ve come here to bring you home,” she said confidently.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter thinking about it, Anya thought that must be it too; otherwise, what other reason would be strong enough for
Lucas to personally come here to the Holdens’ mansion. Even though she had no idea how Lucas knew she was
there, one thing she was sure of was Lucas must have been worried sick about her to make him come all the way
to bring her home.
This made Anya very happy since she thought Lucas was still mad at her for what happened to Joey yesterday. Now
she could finally rest easy with the knowledge that no matter what, her brother would always believe her, forgive
her, and love her.
Corinne stopped speaking and put all of her attention on finishing the bowl of oatmeal in
front of her the moment Anya and Francine came into the dining room.
