Chapter 806
Corinne followed Anya to a large, bright room decorated lavishly in a unique style. Everything inside the room looked expensive
but not ostentatious. Out of all the rooms Corinne toured, she felt the most comfortable in this room. Without needing Anya to tell
her, she had a good idea who the room belonged to.
Still, she asked with a raise of her head, “Whose room is this?”
Anya kept her smile in place while her eyes filled with contempt. “This room used to belong to a wanton woman in the family. It’s
been empty ever since she left since everyone thinks it’ll bring them bad luck if they set foot in this room.”
Anya’s answer assured Corinne of her guess. It was not hard to guess the room used to belong to her mother since it was
decorated in her artistic style.
Corinne narrowed her eyes at Anya. “This room has the best natural lighting out of the rooms. you showed me. Yes, even better
than your parents. I’m guessing only someone very important in your family could’ve lived in a room like this. Am I right?”
Anya was not happy at Corinne bringing up something she should not have brought up, so she said rudely, “There’s no need for
you, an outsider, to know so much about my family. I only brought you here because this is one of the prettier rooms in the
house, so just shut up and enjoy it. We’re going to view the other room next, and you’re gonna be shocked at how much prettier
it is!”
Corinne took one last look at the room and could not help but feel pity for her mother. While there were a few of Emily’s paintings
hanging on the wall, there was none of her photo inside the room. ‘Someone must have thought her photos were an eyesore and
had them put away...’
After that, Anya brought Corinne to a pink-colored nursery. Everything inside was adorable. Corinne’s common sense told her
that it should be Joey’s room, but after thinking about it, why would Anya have the room decorated like this when Joey was a
boy? In fact, the room would be more suitable for a princess.
“And who does this room belong to?” she asked with a raise of her eyebrow.
An almost unnoticeable sinister glint flashed through Anya’s eyes before she answered, “This used to be my room when I was
little. Isn’t it pretty?”
Corinne nodded curtly. “It is.”
Anya looked at the time on her watch before adding with a smile, “Corinne, you should spend more time in this room. You might
get some ideas for your baby’s nursery!”
Corinne glanced at the pink room before shaking her head. “No thanks. I don’t think my baby will like this kind of style.”
She then turned around to leave, but Anya blocked her from doing so.
“Corinne, look! Isn’t this pink music box beautiful?” asked Anya as she took down the music box from the shelf to show to
Corinne.
Corinne never liked anything pink or pastel, so without even looking at it, she put the music box back on the shelf after accepting
it from Anya’s hand. While doing so, she accidentally hit the switch, and the lid of the music box slowly opened as music played.
Two little bears held
hands and danced in a circle while the soothing music played.
The music must have triggered something deep inside of Corinne because her pupils shrank as fragmented memories rushed
back into her mind.
She grimaced at this. ‘Argh, my head hurts...”
