The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 596
Rosie glanced again at Corinne with disgust and barked sarcastically, “Why are you spacing out? Let’s go! I’ll bring you to get
your makeup done!”
Corinne sighed, nodded helplessly, and followed Rosie as the latter led her backstage.
Lucas stared coldly at Corinne’s rear figure and narrowed his eyes. He did not care much about Corinne’s potential performance
later, but he simply felt that Corinne’s reaction was a little odd.
Things were bound to happen whenever Corinne showed up, and there was always some trouble in the offing. All he could hope
for was that she would not ruin his grandfather’s birthday party that day.
Had he not been forced to calm his younger sister’s emotions so she could get her foot injury. checked up, he would not have
allowed Corinne to stay around, let alone perform on stage.
At that moment, Edmund finally arrived with the Lovelaces’ family doctor.
“Sir, Doctor Kingsley is here,” Edmund said.
He then looked worriedly at Anya while she was still nestled in Lucas’s arms. “How is Miss Anya doing?”
Lucas’s face remained calm as he explained, “Her foot is injured pretty badly, and she can’t walk anymore. Have Doctor Kingsley
check her to see if there’s a fracture.”
“Okay. Right this way, doctor. Please have a look at Miss Anya’s foot.”
The family doctor stepped forward and suggested, “Sir, perhaps you should lay her down on a stable platform so she could relax
a little. We’ll be able to examine her better that way.”
“Okay.”
Lucas carried Anya into a nearby guest room and gently placed her on the sofa so the doctor could examine her injuries.
Anya was no longer as stubborn as before. She obeyed her brother obediently and cooperated with the doctor as he checked
her foot. Unbeknownst to everyone, a sinister yet subtle smile appeared across her innocent little face.

The truth was that her foot did not hurt at all, and it was never hurt in the first place. It was all fake!
‘Corinne, oh, Corinne! I’m excited to see what will happen once you go on stage later!’
Edgar hated it when bad singers took to the stage and made a mess out of a song, and he
that would hate Corinne to the core once she butchered the song. That could be enough to stop darn Corinne from doing her
best to associate herself with the powerful and to achieve her
dreams of securing power, wealth, and glory!
“Do you feel any pain here?” the doctor asked, pressing her ankle.
Anya winced in agony and lied, “It does hurt a little, but it’s much better than before. The pain was really bad when I fell down the
stairs earlier...”
“What about here?” The doctor pressed other parts of her foot.
Anya’s answer was the same ‘It hurts a little.’
After a thorough examination, the doctor frowned and stood up.
“Sir, Miss Anya’s ankle is just a little sprained, and there aren’t any fractures. The injury isn’t very severe, so there’s nothing to
worry about. Just apply some sprain ointment, and she’ll recover slowly after some rest. Remember not to let her walk too soon,
though.”
