Chapter 913
Corinne walked up to Pamela. She held her by the arm and shook her head resolutely. “Grandma, he’s not my father.” “Then why
did they come to find you? Do you need me to handle this?” asked Pamela worriedly.
Corinne was touched by Pamela’s attentiveness. She smiled and shook her head again. “Don’t worry, Grandma. I’ll take care of
this myself. You’ve only just finished dinner, so it’s best you go back inside to take a rest.”
She then turned to look at Francine. “Francine, bring Grandma in with you. Don’t let her worry, you hear?”
Surprisingly, Francine simply nodded and led Pamela into the mansion by the elbow.
Pamela was still worried about Corinne but decided not to say anything since she insisted she could handle it herself.
“Ma’am, wait! We are Corinne’s family. This ingrate cut ties with US after marrying into your family!” shouted Sherlyn.
Pamela paused in her tracks.
Seeing this, Liliiana quickly added, “Ma’am, we are Corinne’s family- honest! Otherwise, why would we come here to find her?
She broke off contact with US ever since marrying into your family ’cause she thinks we’re too poor! Ma’am, I can tell you’re a
fair
woman, and I’m pretty sure a prominent family like yours will never accept an ingrate as a granddaughterin-law, right?”
After that, she nudged Marvin to get him to say something as well.
Marvin came to his senses and immediately knew what LiIIiana wanted him to do. My wife is right! Corinne is our daughter, and
I’m her father!” Pamela half-turned to look at the three of them before fixing her gaze on Marvin only. She narrowed her eyes and

asked, “Then why does Corinne insist you’re not her father?” “It’s because I’m not his biological father but her adopted father
instead,” explained Marvin helplessly. Pamela frowned. “And how long have you acted as her adopted father?” “More than ten
years, ma’am. I took her in when she was about four or five, and she took my last name ever since then. She started thinking we
were not good enough for her after marrying into your family. In fact, she hasn’t even visited US once, and I bet it’s because she
thinks we’re a disgrace. It makes me shudder to think how ruthless she can be,” answered Marvin quickly.
“If it makes you shudder to think about her that way, why are you here now? Just what motive do you have for coming here to
find her?” asked Pamela.
Marvin’s expression faltered in guilt. He was silent for a while before answering, “Ma’am, something happened, and I was left
with no choice but to find her. People from my old hometown came crying to me after they found out what Corinne did to them a
few years back. You see, I had no choice but to bring them here.”
Corinne frowned. ‘What I did to them? What did I ever do to them? Why do I have no recollection of that at all?’
Pamela finally turned and looked sternly at Marvin. “Mister Carew, you better explain just what Corinne did to make you and your
family come all the way here to kick up a fuss!”
Marvin sighed. “It’s a long story. It’ll be quicker if you ask the accusers to explain it themselves.” He then turned to the old red
sports car and said,’ You ladies can come out now.”
