Wearing a smug smile on his face, Corbin raised his eyebrows and said cheekily, “Of course. Is there anything I can’t handle?”

“What did you do to him? Tell me this instant!” Nana asked with a concerned look.

She knew how stubborn and persistent Huey could be. He often came across to others as an overbearing asshole. How could he suddenly have a change of heart and let her go so easily?

“Don’t worry. He wasn’t hurt at all. He only faked his injuries to manipulate your feelings and set you up,” Corbin explained.

After learning the truth, Nana gritted her teeth with intense hatred. She wanted to rush inside and beat Huey up.

“What a scumbag! How could I be so blind to have fallen in love with him back then?”

Eliana walked up to her and patted her shoulder. “Well, it’s all over now. Just promise me that you’ll never see him again.”

“Okay, whatever you say! Let me go now. It hurts!”

Nana’s face immediately turned red. Contrary to her words, she didn’t feel any pain at all. But her ears were tingling with a warm feeling.
