Chapter 349
Lucas‘ expression darkened. He slammed the female influencer’s phone loudly on the table and glared vehemently at Sunny.
“Instead of studying like I told you to do, you spent all your time on that hacker league of yours. Did you really think no one will
ever find out about what you did just because you think you have a few tricks up your sleeves? At least clean up all your traces if
you want to pull shady stunts like this,” mocked Lucas.
Sunny was starting to tear up. He forced back his tears and said, “Lucas, it’s true that I’ve joined a hacker league, but I swear to
god, I have nothing to do with that video. I have no reasons to hurt her.”
“How dare you still deny it when we’ve caught you red–handed?”
“I’m not denying it. I really didn’t do it.”
Lucas was getting fed up. “Edmund, lock him up in his room, and make sure he doesn’t get anything to eat until he has admitted
his crime.”
Edmund hesitated for a second, but he did not dare to defy Lucas‘ order. “Yes, Mister Lucas.”
Sunny wiped away his tears and said stubbornly, “Fine! If you won’t let me eat, then I won’t eat! You’re a fool, Lucas. You not
only wrongly accused Corinne, but you’re doing the same thing to me now, too. One day, you’ll get your karma!”
Edmund was worried that Sunny would make Lucas angrier than he already was, so he quickly dragged him out of the room.
Seeing this, Anya secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Then, a victorious smile appeared faintly on her lips. ‘My plan has worked.
Lucas will never suspect me now.”
While Sunny was on his way to Lucas‘ study and before Edmund brought someone to check Sunny’s computer, Anya had snuck
into Sunny’s room to tamper with his computer. Yes, she uploaded all the things Edmund said were found on Sunny’s computer.
She had no choice but to do that. There was no way she was going to let Lucas find out that she was the one who edited the
video and posted it online. She was willing to sacrifice Sunny to save herself.
‘It’s a pity that I couldn’t completely screw over Corinne this time... thought Anya. Then, pulling back from her thoughts, she put
on a worried face and said, “Lucas, I’m sure Sunny...”
Lucas waved his hand to stop her from going any further. “He’s not a little kid anymore. He needs to learn that every action has
consequences. I’ll handle this matter, so don’t you worry about it. You should go rest now.”
“Alright, then. Don’t stay up too late, Lucas,” said Anya with a sigh. Then, she walked out of the study.
“Mister Lucas, Mister Jeremy has many talented people from all walks of life working under him.
Even though Mister Sunny had changed his IP address, Mister Jeremy’s people would still be able to find out the real IP address
very soon. What if, by then... he thought that you were the one who posted the video online?” Edmund asked anxiously as soon
as he came back from Sunny’s room.
Lucas raised his eyebrow. “So what if he thinks that?” he asked fearlessly.
“I just think that it’s best if we avoid any conflict with the Holden family. The Rivera family and the Holden family already have bad
blood from the previous generation, and this has affected Anya not getting married no less. If the conflict escalates, it’ll only
make Anya’s life more miserable. The matter with the video is indeed Mister Sunny’s fault.”
Lucas knew that Anya still had feelings for Jeremy. In fact, he had mentally prepared himself for her to always have feelings for
Jeremy. Due to this reason, he had no choice but to de–escalate whatever conflict there was between the two families.
He rubbed his temples, and after thinking about it for a while, he ordered, “Tomorrow morning, bring Sunny over to Jeremy’s
place to apologize. Explain to him what happened and then give the original video to him for disposal. If he’s still not satisfied, tell
him I’ll be willing to meet up with him to go over the matter whenever he wants.”
“Yes, Mister Lucas,” said Edmund with a nod.
