Francine replied, “Sure! By the way, why did you call me at this time though, Anya? Is something the matter?”
Anya feigned hesitance. “Uh… Nothing! I bought you a gift when I came back, but it was only after I returned that I
realized you weren’t in town. I wanted to get your address so I can send it to you.”xo.com fast update
Francine felt very touched when she heard that. “That’s so thoughtful of you, Anya! You even remembered me and
bought me a gift! Sigh, if only you were my sister–in–law! I wouldn’t have been locked up in the detention center for
ten days, and Grandma wouldn’t discipline me by sending me abroad. I don’t even have any personal freedom right
now!”
Anya acted surprised as she asked, “What happened, Francine? How did you end up in a detention center all of a
sudden?”
Francine was filled with resentment when she recalled that incident. “This was all Corinne’s fault! Ugh, why did my
brother have to marry a country girl like her? She’s a schemer, a hypocrite, and the worst person to ever exist in

Anya sighed sympathetically. “Sigh! Speaking of which, Rosie was detained at the police station today! I was so
distressed because I couldn’t bail her out, so I wanted to talk to you and get it off my chest…”
Francine was shocked. “What? Rosie is locked up too? What’s going on?”
Anya deliberately avoided the question at first and hesitated to say anything, but she then pretended as if she could

Francine’s constant questioning and had no choice but to recount the series of events that happened in the past
few days since her return to the country. To that end, she chose to
emphasize only those parts of the story that would elicit pity for her.
Francine was filled with righteous indignation after hearing what Anya said. “Seriously? Corinne again? I, too,
believe that she framed Rosie! I can’t believe my brother married someone so evil!”
Having achieved her desired effect, Anya then asked ‘
cautiously‘, “By the way, Anya, you haven’t gone online and seen any news from back home, right?”
Francine answered, “No. I’ve been browsing stuff from the country I’m in these past couple of days. Did anything
happen back home?”
Anya then instructed, “You can’t let Grandpa and Grandma see any news from back home. I’m worried that they
might get angry and fall sick…”
“Why would they? Did something happen back home? Is it related to our family?”
“You should avoid reading it, too. Listen to me, okay? Don’t go searching for the news!”
Francine could not stand Anya’s cryptic advice, and she immediately switched on her tablet to read the news. As
soon as she found out what happened, her anger shot through the roof and she cursed, “How shameless can
Corinne be?! I can’t believe she tried to stage an accident and extort money! Our family’s reputation will be ruined
if she’s revealed to be Jeremy’s wife! This is unacceptable! I’m going to tell my

grandparents right now so they’ll tell Jeremy to divorce her!”
Anya persuaded kindly, “No, Francine. Don’t. It won’t do your grandparents any good now, and-”
Francine had already gotten up and changed into a fresh set of clothes. “Don’t worry about this! Our family will
never let that woman humiliate our prestige!” She hung up in a hurry as soon as she finished speaking.
Once Anya heard the dial tone from the other end, she laughed and thought to herself, ‘Things are going really
well!‘
Back at the Holdens‘ estate, Corinne went straight up because she could not wait any longer to wash off the coke
that had dried off and turned sticky on her body.
Jeremy followed her upstairs and entered the room, but Corinne’s two small hands pushed the door mercilessly to
shut him out.
He raised his big hand and pushed the door to prevent her from closing it, and as he did so, he raised his eyebrows
and looked unhappily at her. “Didn’t you say you wanted to learn to get along with me? Why aren’t you letting me
in?”
