The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 605

Chapter 605

Anya tried her best not to look guilty, but her expression was very awkward as she responded to Edgar

“Grandpa, I…”

Rosie–collected her thoughts rapidly and spoke for her best friend.

“Don’t listen to Corinne’s nonsense, Mister Edgar. She couldn’t have sung Farewell, My Love‘ earlier. Does she look like someone who could sing opera? She’s just an ordinary employee in Lucas’s company who came from a poor background in the countryside. She wouldn’t have had the chance to learn opera because her family is so poor!”

Rosie then turned to Corinne, glared at her, and belittled her sarcastically.

“You’re just jealous because you saw Anya getting the applause and appreciation from Mister Edgar and the guests. That’s why you came over to take the credit and make yourself known!

“Do you think anyone will believe your one–sided statement that you were the singer earlier? The other performers can testify that the one who just came on stage was Anya!”

Rosie’s ‘righteousness‘ made Edgar a little skeptical. He frowned and asked, “Which one of you sang Farewell, My Love?”

Before Corinne and Anya could answer, Rosie spoke up again.

“It was Anya, of course! You shouldn’t listen to Corinne’s nonsense because of her questionable character. She works for Lucas but doesn’t put any effort into her work. All she does is seduce men to try and climb the social ladder!

Corinne stopped again. “Is there anything else I can help you with, sir?”

Rosie became a little when she heard that and interjected, “Mister Edgar, why do you need to ask her to stay when it’s been proven that she’s lying? Just tell her to get lost!”

Edgar glanced at Rosie with a stern gaze. “People can lie, but their voices can never liel Since both claim they sang ‘Farewell, My Love‘, let’s have them sing a couple of lines for me. I can tell who the real singer is by their voice!”

Anya, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, faced yet another crisis. Her face was stiff, but she tried her best to maintain her composure and pinched her best friend’s hand, whose plan backfired severely.

Rosie could sense Anya’s grudgingness and began to panic. She did not expect things to end up that way. so she hurriedly said, “Mister Edgar, Anya’s sprained her foot, and the doctor told her to rest. I’m afraid she won’t be able to sing anymore.“
