Chapter 1019


    The conversation between Rosie and Anya took a different turn.


    In the audio, Anya tried to talk Rosie out of hurting Corinne and saying things like she had forgiven


    her for stealing Jeremy. Rosie, however, persistently cursed Corinne and said she deserved to die.


    Toward the end of thest call, Rosie even described how she found the ouw willing to run over


    Corinne for some kind of payment before begging Anya toe to the hospital to save her.


    The weird thing was that every word Rosie said in the recording was from her very mouth, but it was


    obviously not in the correct order. Moreover, she was sure many of the things Anya said wereter


    added to the recording since she never heard her say all those things to her during their many


    phone calls.


    Thus, the recording merely confirmed what Anya said: That she tried to talk Rosie out of hurting


    Corinne, how Rosie was hellbent on getting rid of Corinne, and, finally, Rosie asking Anya for help


    in clearing her name.


    After the recording finished ying, Lucas red at Rosie. "Just what did Corinne do to you to


    deserve this? Why?! Why did you kill her?!" he asked between gritted teeth.


    Rosie was so shocked that she could only stare back nkly at Lucas.


    ''How… How is this happening? Anya must''ve nned for things to end up like this all along!''


    thought Rosie.


    She was right. Anya had been secretly recording all of their phone calls since way back and took


    out the part where Rosie was cursing Corinne to add to the recording she used seconds ago.


    ''Hahaha! Corinne had been telling the truth all along! Anya never saw me as a friend! I''m only a tool


    to her. I can''t believe I''ve been fooled by her innocent act all these years!''


    Rosie knew she was finished. She copsed to the floor in a fit of hysterics. "How can you do this to


    me, Anya?! I trusted you more than I trusted my family! I see you as the most important person in


    my life! I did everything you asked just to make you happy!"


    Anya arranged her facial expression into one of sadness. "Rosie, if you''re really my best friend, you


    wouldn''t have tried to bring me down with you. Best friends don''t do that to each other. You''ve


    always hated Corinne, but your jealousy must''ve pushed you to get rid of her after you thought


    something was going on between her and Lucas!"


    "You were the one who told me Lucas is her baby''s father!" screamed Rosie hysterically. "How can


    you say it was all a misunderstanding? I wouldn''t even have known Corinne was pregnant if you


    didn''t tell me! You''re only doing this to save your own *ss! You''re a real b*tch, Anya! You had us all


    fooled with your innocent act… You… You…"


    Anya could not be bothered to listen to what the hysterical Anya had to say. Instead, she thought it


    was more important to make sure Lucas believed her.


    Thus, she turned toward him and said, "Lucas, I know Corinne and I hadn''t exactly gotten along in


    the past. I did some pretty bad things to her too, I know. But I never wished for her to die… At most,


    I only wished for you all to stop liking her so much. Lucas, you get me, right? Yes, I''m not as


    innocent as I made you all believe, but neither am I vicious or ruthless enough to want someone


    dead!"


    Lucas looked at her coldly. He said nothing, so it was hard to tell whether he bought what she said.

    The seconds ticked by, but he still said nothing. In the end, he turned toward Rosie.


    "Are you going to turn yourself in, or should I drag you to the police station?" he asked, ring at


    her hatefully.


    Rosie shook her head hysterically while tears of anguish rolled down her cheeks. She was unwilling


    to face the consequences of her actions.


    At that moment, Jeremy suddenly stood up and said coldly, "There''s no need for her to turn herself


    in."
