Before Corinne could retort, Marvin scolded them both, "Shut up! Do you want to get more beating?!"
Lilliana and Sherlyn shrunk back, wisely choosing not to say anything more.
Corinne was protected by the Holdens; she was no longer someone they could afford to offend.
Marvin adopted a more polite tone as he addressed Corinne. "Corinne, why did you come back? Is it because you miss your old dad?"
Corinne felt disgusted at how he could still refer to himself as her father. She smirked coldly and said, "Mister Carew, please have some self-respect. I do have some business coming back, but seeing your family in this state, it seems I have none now."
Sherlyn could not resist adding, "I was right, Dad. I knew she came back just to enjoy our misery!"
Marvin was not pleased either. He knew he got beaten up because of Corinne, but he dared not provoke her and remained silent.
Corinne returned to seek revenge for Emily, but seeing the Carews' severe condition left her uncertain about how to proceed. Their injuries were extensive, with no part of their bodies left unscathed. Thus, Corinne decided to let them be. Not even sparing them a second glance, she turned and left at a leisurely pace.
No words were exchanged by the Carews until she walked out of the door. Corinne was well aware that Lilliana and Sherlyn would not have anything positive to say once she was gone, but...who cared? Even if she chose not to do anything, their future would not be a pleasant one. They were consumed by greed, and in the end, it would be a vicious cycle of harm.
After leaving the Carews' residence, Corinne made her way to Aaron and Annie's wedding. They both meant a lot to her, and she could not miss their big day.
While walking to her car, she sensed a surge of hostility from behind. She turned around sharply but found no immediate threat. There was only a balloon seller heading in the opposite direction. Corinne narrowed her eyes. She attributed her overthinking to not being well-rested.
She shook her head to clear her thoughts. However, as she was about to get into her car, she suddenly remembered something, and that caused her to turn her gaze to the balloon seller.
Meanwhile, the Carews were arguing loudly with each other.
After Corinne left, Marvin launched into another round of harsh scolding directed at Lilliana and Sherlyn.
Initially, Lilliana and Sherlyn endured the verbal onslaught in silence. However, as it continued, they reached their breaking point.

Marvin could not believe what he was
hearing. He stared at the
money-hungry Lilliana and retorted
"You must be dreaming! What shared assets? Those properties were all passed down to me from my parents! Plus, I've spent so much money on
you and Sherlyn over the years that you should be thankful I'm not asking you to pay me back!" Visit Popsnovel.com to read the latest chapter of this novel
