Chapter 584:

Brook’s words struck a chord in Corrie’s heart. Seizing her handbag, she hurled it at him with no mercy.

With a deft catch, Brook held the handbag and taunted her, a smirk on his face. “Oh, did I strike a nerve? You know, no man really likes a vicious woman like yourself.”

Corrie let out a mocking laugh. “Like? Why would I need a man to like me? What good does his liking do me? If he can’t offer me anything I value, why should his feelings matter?”

Brook calmly brushed off Corrie’s hand and wiped his own with a tissue, eyes full of disdain. “Well, since you’re so determined, I wish you all the best.”

Stung by his dismissive tone, Corrie clenched her fists, watching him walk away.

She took a deep breath, slowly releasing it, trying to steady her emotions. “It doesn’t matter, Corrie,” she whispered to herself. “You haven’t done anything wrong. Isn’t this just how it works in our world? Everything revolves around gains. True virtue? That’s a luxury only those at the top can afford. The rest of us? We do what we must to survive. Yes, you’re doing just fine.”

Corrie calmed herself, banishing the turmoil that had built up in her heart. She mustered a smile and left the study.

Upon entering the dining room, she noticed that dinner was just being served.

Corrie settled at the table. Seeing Enzo start his meal, she followed suit.
