Chapter 694
“Corinne, what… What are you doing again? My Joey has died! What else do you want to do to him? Don’t come
any closer!”
Corinne wasted no time with Anya’s words and instantly pried her hand that tightly held the child. “Don’t get in the
way. I want to see if your son can still be saved!”
Anya stared at Corinne, shocked, then became more guarded against Corinne’s actions as she shouted, “What? You
want to see if Joey can still be saved?! Corinne, how can you act so well!? It was you who killed my Joey, and now
that my brother has reported to the police, you come here pretending to save him? Don’t you think that’s too
pretentious?

“Brother! She’s trying to harm Joey’s body. Quickly, help me drive her away!”
“Corinne, stop right there!” Lucas‘ expression turned ruthless as he quickly approached to protect his sister, but
Jeremy’s raised arm stopped him halfway.
Blocked on his path, Lucas stood still, narrowing his eyes in displeasure. “Jeremy, can’t you see what that woman is
doing? She doesn’t even respect the boy’s body!”
Jeremy’s expression remained emotionless. “You’re not allowed to touch her!”
Lucas felt him unreasonable and directly waved away Jeremy’s arm to break through.
At this moment, Corinne grabbed the child’s hand and confirmed that the child still had a pulse, albeit very weak.
She turned around and said, “Mister! Call an ambulance!”
Upon hearing the girl’s command, Jeremy swiftly let go and allowed Lucas to pass, then took out his phone and
dialed the emergency number.
When Lucas reached his sister’s side, Corinne had already stood up and walked away.
Corinne stood up and looked at the people around her, quickly selecting those who could be of use.
It was then she saw Lucas‘ trusted subordinate, Edmund, standing not far away, and she quickly walked toward
him.
The servants of the Riveras all looked down on her and would not listen to her. Edmund, on the other hand, had
previously interacted with her in their work. Although he was Lucas‘ trusted subordinate, he had a decent
character, so he should be willing to help!
She approached Edmund and solemnly said, “Mister Edmund, do you know if there is any first–aid kit in the
household?”

Most houses had first–aid kits for bruises and minor injuries. One was commonly kept in households.
Edmund looked at her cautiously and bewilderedly, then answered, “There should be.”
“Then please go find one as soon as possible,” she said, entrusting him with the task. “The sooner, the better!”
Edmund’s brow furrowed and he looked at Lucas, silently
asking for his master’s opinion, but Lucas was busy comforting his sister and gave him no affirmation nor
refutation.
Seeing this, Edmund considered for a moment and nodded at Corinne. “Wait here.”
Edmund thus swiftly went to find the kit.
Seeing Edmund leave, Corinne turned and exchanged a glance with Jeremy. The man slightly nodded at her.
An ambulance had been called and would arrive soon.
Their bodies and minds communicated without the need for words, understanding each other implicitly.
