Sunny quickly took the phone out of the drawer. Then, he plugged one end of the data cable into the phone and the
other into Lucas‘ computer before plugging in his flash drive. He did all of that very swiftly, but just when he was
about to copy the video into his flash drive…
“What are you doing?” asked Lucas coldly, appearing in the room.
Sunny immediately froze in place. He stiffly raised his head and said, “Lucas… I was…was just looking up some
information on the computer…”
Lucas narrowed his eyes. “Why would you use my computer instead of yours?”xo.com fast update
Sunny started to panic even more. “Umm…. I… I suddenly remembered I missed out on some information when I
came in here, and I was worried that I’ll forget again if I didn’t look it up now, so I thought I could just use your

While he spoke, Sunny had sneakily unplugged the data cable and put the female influencer’s phone into his pocket.
Lucas‘ expression remained unchanged. He easily saw through what Sunny did. He took a step forward and
stretched out a hand. “Hand it over.”
Sunny pretended he did not know what Lucas was talking about. His eyes darted around as he said, “Hand… Hand
what over?”
“How dare you still lie when you’ve already been caught in the act? Is this where you put your mind into? Learning
how to lie instead of studying?”
At the mention of studying, Sunny became a little ashamed of himself. He knew he could not keep his lie from Lucas
anymore, so he obediently handed over the phone to him.
“Lucas, I’m sorry. I admit I took the phone, but I just wanted to…”
Lucas took the phone and held it up in front of Sunny’s face. “I don’t care what you were thinking, but you shouldn’t
have posted that video online to slander someone who’s helped your grandfather in the past!”
“What…?” Sunny was stunned. He did not understand the words coming out of Lucas‘ mouth.
Lucas scoffed. “Did you really think everything is fine just because you blurred out our grandfather’s face? I only
testified against Corinne at the police station because I thought she had done something to hurt Anya. You know I
won’t tolerate anyone who did anything to hurt her. The police had concluded that the case had nothing to do with
Corinne, and you still did something like this to slander her? Aren’t you afraid of the others calling the Rivera family
ungrateful?”
“Lucas, what are you talking about? I wasn’t the one who posted that video online,” said Sunny, feeling very hard
done by.
Lucas frowned when he saw how firm Sunny was. He could not help but think he had gotten the
wrong person…
“Lucas. Sunny. What’s going on? I was on my way down to get some water, but I heard the two of you arguing,”

Sunny was happy to see her because he knew she would always take his side. He immediately ran up to her and
said, “Anya, Lucas was so mean to me. He was accusing me of doing something I didn’t do even when I told him I
wasn’t the one who posted that video online to slander Corinne.”
Anya frowned and gently patted Sunny on the shoulder to calm him down. Then, she turned to face Lucas and said,
“Lucas, you shouldn’t accuse Sunny when you don’t have solid proof. What if
you were wrong…”
At that moment, Edmund walked over and reported, “Mister Lucas, we found the editing software and the original
file of the edited video, as well as the login history of the female influencer’s VeeTube account, on Mister Sunny’s
computer.”
‘What?!‘ It was then Sunny realized that the reason Lucas called him over was to lure him away first so that
Edmund could check his computer. ‘But how is it possible that my computer has those things? No. This couldn’t be
happening. What’s going on?‘
