Cedric was taken aback. ‘Why did you use that analogy on me…’

Beatrice smiled as she glanced at Cedric. “He’s probably thinking about going out to ‘fish’ now! I guess the only time a man will stay put and behave is when he’s in the coffin!”

Cedric frowned. “No! What are you talking about? We’ve been together for an entire life! Have I ever been that kind of person?”

Beatrice scoffed. “If you’re not that kind of person, what’s with all this nonsense you’re teaching Corinne?”

Cedric was speechless. ‘I’m only saying that because I can’t bear to see a good young woman like Corinne marrying into the ruthless Holden household!!

He sighed, turned, and said earnestly to Corinne, “Our situation is different. Beatrice and I are childhood sweethearts, and we’re about the same age as each other. We both know each other well, and we genuinely enjoy living the rest of our lives with each other. We’re an open book. when it comes to each other!

“But Jeremy is nearly ten years older than you, and you don’t even know him that well. A man’s true nature isn’t something you can see through in a short time! I just think that you’re still young, and I feel that you should be more cautious in choosing your life partner.”

Corinne knew that the Riveras and the Holdens had never been on good terms, so it did not surprise her that Cedric did not like Jeremy. She did not take his words to heart and brushed. them off casually, finding an excuse to leave. “Grandma Beatrice, can I take some of these cookies with me? Sunny wanted me to help him with his homework, so I’ll bring some cookies. there for him too.”

“Of course. You can take them all! You’re supposed to be our guest, but that kid still asked you to teach him. I’m so sorry about that!”

Corinne smiled. “Don’t worry about it. He and I know each other, and teaching him gives me the chance to revise some of the things I’ve learned in the past, so I don’t end up forgetting them!”

Beatrice was very appreciative of Corinne’s help and nodded with a smile. “That’s very kind of you. Go ahead, then! I’ll have someone call you both when it’s time for dinner.”

“Okay!” Corinne then carried the plate of cookies and left the tea room.

At long last, she could breathe a sigh of relief.

Cedric insisted on getting her to break up with Jeremy, while Beatrice was very suspicious of her identity and had been trying to dig deeper into her past.

If Corinne did not make any excuses to leave that place, she would run out of ideas on how to deal with them!

After Corinne went out, the atmosphere between the old couple became serious.

Cedric frowned and asked, “You asked Corinne so many questions about her life, and one of your questions was whether she had a mole between her eyebrows when she was young. Do you think that she might be…”

Beatrice did not deny it. “Don’t you think her general facial features and habits are similar to Luna’s?”

Corinne was walking up the flight of stairs with the plate of cookies when she suddenly caught a whiff of a strong perfume. It did not smell cheap at all, and she could tell that it was a very expensive yet carefully formulated perfume.

However, as good as any perfume was, too much of it would still make one’s eyes Water.

She looked up in the direction of the smell and saw a well-dressed Anya heading down. “Corinne? Why are you at my house?!” Anya yelled.
