Chapter 265
It appeared that Corinne was not in her best state.
Aaron realized he had misspoken and had irked Corinne, so he quickly went over and apologized. “Boss, I’m sorry. I won’t do it again…
Actually, Corinne was just a little frustrated and did not mean to lash out at Aaron. Inevitably, she rolled her eyes. “Okay, that’s enough. Stop acting cute. Have you tracked down any of Nellie’s paintings in the market recently?”
Aaron got serious and replied, “No. Most of the paintings in the market are by artists from foreign countries. I haven’t seen any paintings from local artists recently.”
Corinne narrowed her eyes and looked solemn. “Alright. Continue to monitor the market for me.”
“Yes, ma’am!”
Ever since she knew she was not Marvin’s biological daughter, she was more eager to find more clues about her mother.
She wanted to know who she was.
Who was her father? Why did he leave her and her mother?
Why did her mother leave her in the hospital and never came back for her? Why did her mother allow a man that had nothing to do with her to take her in?
What happened in the past?
She was curious and eager to find out the answers to these questions.
Xante noticed Corinne’s sour expression. She thus raised her chin at Aaron and said, “Hey, Aaron, go get us some supper. I think the boss is hungry.”
Aaron frowned unhappily. “What? I just had my shower! Why don’t you go buy it?”
Xante ignored him and continued, “Oh, and get a box of donuts. The boss likes that.” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
Aaron snorted and consoled himself. “Sigh! Poor me, being ordered around.”
Although he sounded like he was reluctant, he quickly went back to his room to change and left the house after taking his car key.
Once Aaron left, Xante looked at Corinne and asked, “Boss, I actually heard something about what happened today.”
Corinne regained her senses and looked at Xante. “Huh? What did you hear?”
“I heard Miss Anya Rivera is back and that a man had decorated Lunar Century Manor with pink tulips to welcome her. I also heard about the confessions on the LED panel of the Century Bank Tower, the blue fireworks, and the drone
performances… I saw them by accident when I was hanging my laundry on the balcony.”
Upon hearing that, Corinne looked out the window in the living room. It was indeed as Xante said; they could clearly see the confession on the Century Bank Tower.
Their unit had the best view of the Yonder River that oversaw the entire Yonder River.
Xante asked another question, “Did Mister Jeremy do those because of Miss Anya?”
Corinne nodded lightly. “Yeah, it’s all him.”
“What’s their relationship?” Xante asked again.
“I heard they were actually a couple but were forced to break up. I don’t know about the details, though,” Corinne answered.
“Boss, I can feel that you’re in a bad mood today.” A ray of light flashed over Xante’s glasses. She said, “Is it because you are…jealous?”
“Cough! Ack, ack…”
Corinne choked on the milk she was drinking and began
coughing so much that the veins in her eyes appeared.
