The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 690

Corinne raised her gaze calmly. "I'm innocent, why should I admit to anything?"

Lucas narrowed his eyes darkly. "If it wasn't you, then why were you holding the murder weapon?"

Corinne lifted the chisel in her hand. "Are you talking about this? Miss Anya forcefully gave it to me, saying it was for self-defense!"

Lucas found her unreasonable. "Corinne, don't you find these words you're saying laughable?"

Corinne's expression remained calm. "I'm speaking the truth. If you find the truth laughable, then it's your problem, Mister Lucas."

Lucas's face darkened, believing that her current attitude was not only an attempt to escape blame but also a challenge to their family's authority.

"Corinne, I'll give you another chance to confess. I can still let you bear the consequences of your actions. Otherwise, I'll make your whole family pay!"

Corinne looked at him unperturbed, feeling a tinge of irony and amusement in her heart.

Make her whole family pay?

Does this so-called 'whole family' refer to those with blood ties?

If so, then this Mister Lucas would probably be the first to die!

If it doesn't refer to blood relations, it doesn't matter even more. She doesn't have any so-called family, to begin with.

"Whatever."

The word softly spoken by Corinne left Lucas shocked and bewildered.

"From beginning to end, I never even touched him. I think no one knows better than you, Miss Anya, what exactly happened to your son!"

Anya wore a face of unjust accusation and indignation, "Corinne, aren't you guilty of telling such lies? Doesn't your conscience ache? When did I say those things to you? Stop making up stories!"

Who is it that lies without guilt? Who is it that doesn't feel pain in their conscience?

Huh, the thief accuses others of being a thief!

Corinne glanced at Anya and felt disgusted.

Anya did not finish yet and pretended to wipe away her tears, turning to the man beside her who did not speak for a long time and said, "Jeremy, I know that all the kindness you've shown me over the years was because I once saved your life. I'm not asking you to repay the debt of saving my life now. I only beg you to help us seek justice for Joey. He can't be unjustly killed like this."
