Chapter 488
“Who is that? What a gorgeous girl that is!” Cole swallowed his saliva as he looked at Corinne.
Rosie heard what Anya said and saw how aroused Cole was, so she immediately smiled and echoed Anya’s words, “Cole, not
only is that girl very pretty, but she’s especially good at having fun! Go and chat with her. You definitely would like her very
much!”
Cole became even more interested. “Having fun? What kind of fun?”
Rosie smiled suggestively. “She’s skilled at all the games men like to play!”
Cole rubbed his chin, feeling so excited that he almost drooled. “Not bad! I like that! Anya, I won’t keep you and Miss Rosie from
talking in private anymore. I’ll go have a chat with that girl!”
Watching Cole walk toward Corinne, Anya pretended to look worried. “Rosie, is it bad for us to direct Cole to Corinne like this?”
Rosie did not think so. “What’s so bad about that? Isn’t Corinne trying to get with a rich man? She’s a bumpkin who came from
poverty, yet she kept dreaming of being with Jeremy and Lucas! No matter how I see it, Cole is a rich man who has more than
enough wealth to be a match for Corinne! Also, it’ll be a good thing if both of them end up together. Then, she wouldn’t seduce
our man anymore!”
“But,” Anya pretended to be concerned, then she naively nodded after giving it a thought. “Alright. Maybe what you said makes
sense as well, Rosie. It’s quite good if Corinne could marry Cole. This way, we will be a family, and we can hang out together
frequently!”
Rosie put her hand on her head, feeling helpless. She felt that her best friend was truly too pure, so much so that she wanted to
be Corinne’s family and hang out with her!
“That’s right. Corinne would be marrying rich if she married Cole, which is a blessing to her!”
Both of them have reached an agreement. They turned to look at Corinne at the same time and saw that Cole was already hitting
on her.
Corinne had too many sweets, so she felt a little thirsty. She picked an orange drink on the table and gave it a sniff. It was after
she confirmed it was no alcohol that she took a little to try. It tasted quite good. It was a freshly squeezed juice with various fruits.
She stood quietly by the buffet table, sipping her orange drink. She casually looked around the decor inside Lunar Century
Manor, and she started to have mixed feelings.
She was to the manor a few times before. Every time she came, she felt a sense of familiarity with the place for some reason,
but she never minded it and looked into it.
It was only then she figured it out. It turned out it was because she used to be Rivera. That was why this manor felt a little
familiar to her.
What exactly happened in the family back then that forced her mother to run away from home and went. into hiding with her
when she was still a child? Her mother even went as far as leaving her under the care of a classmate whom she did not speak to
in years. Her mother then disappeared without a trace, and there was no telling if she was still alive.
Thinking about the fact that her mother’s whereabouts were still unknown at that point, Corinne got a little down. Needless to
say, she did not have a good impression of the Riveras.
“Why are you drinking alone, gorgeous?”
Corinne regained her senses and looked at the man who came and approached her. He was wearing a fancy checkered suit,
and he looked like a lecher.
She answered coldly. “This is not alcohol. It’s just fruit juice.”
Cole grabbed a dessert that looked more exquisite from the table and handed it to her. “The desserts my aunt picked for her
party are always good. Come on. Try this chestnut cake. It’s delicious!”
“No, thanks. I already had it just now.” Corrine rejected the man politely, but she was rather interested in what he said earlier.
“Sir, you said this is a party held by your aunt. That means you’re also a Rivera, am I right?”
Cole nodded without feeling sheepish at all. “That’s right! I am a Rivera!
