Chapter 795
Corinnne took the exercise book from Sunny and glanced at the problem that he had just finished solving. “Great work! You may
continue with the rest of the questions. Once you’re done, you can hand them over to me so I can review them again.”
Sunny frowned and said unhappily, “I showed you my answer to prove that I can do it! It
doesn’t mean that you can just check all my homework! Know your place! Hmph!”
Corinne looked at him, folded her arms, and said with a smirk, “I do know my place. You are obliged to let me review your
homework.”
“Obliged?” Sunny rolled his eyes. “Tch! Who do you think you are?”
“I might not have the proper status to meddle in your homework earlier, but things have changed. I have officially been hired as
your tutor, and it is my responsibility to help you check and correct your homework. It’s my job!”
“My tutor? Who agreed to that?”
“Your mother. She asked to speak with me in private so she can formally hire me as your tutor. I will now be in charge of helping
you improve your grades.”
Sunny frowned and remarked suspiciously, “What are you trying to do, Corinne? Why didn’t you explain to my mother that you
weren’t my tutor?! You’ve even agreed to be officially hired as my tutor! What are you trying to do?”
“I don’t have any purpose in particular,” Corinne said indifferently. “Your mother simply offered a very high pay, so I agreed!”
Sunny glared at her. “Oh, please! It’s not like you’re short of money now that you’re with Jeremy. I bet you have some ulterior
motive for coming here, Corinne! Let me guess: you’re trying to harm my sister under the pretext of becoming my tutor, aren’t
you?”
Corinne smiled. “Why would I harm your sister? She doesn’t pose any threat to me.”
Sunny was stunned for a moment and noticed the contempt in Corinne’s expression. It was clear that she looked down on his
sister, and with good reason. Anya posed no threat to her because Jeremy’s affection for her was that of gratitude instead of
love.
Sunny felt that it was unfair to his sister, but he could do nothing about it, knowing Corinne was right.
Corinne looked at Sunny’s stifled expression and felt that he was different from his mother and sister. He was naive to the extent
of being a numbskull, and all he had going for him was hot-blooded enthusiasm.
However, when she heard Sunny defending Lucas in front of his mother earlier in the bathroom, she was a little surprised that he
had some inkling of righteousness and kindness in him despite being raised under the influence of people like Phoebe and Anya.
Corinne agreed to be Sunny’s tutor because she wanted to get to know Phoebe, and she could more or less get by with the
actual work of tutoring Sunny without expending much effort.
Nevertheless, there was a strange feeling in her heart that she could not explain. She should not have felt anything for her half-
brother, yet she was somehow irked at his recalcitrant
behavior.
She therefore decided to monitor his studies so he could do better in his university entrance exams and be more independent in
the future. Otherwise, he might end up being led astray by his mother and sister in the future!
“Ah, Miss Corinne! You’re here!” rang Benson’s voice.
