Chapter 89

Lemira flipped the dinner table over, and then casually wiped her hands.

Alaric, witnessing Lemira’s uncharacteristic outburst, exclaimed, “Lemima, have you lost your mind?”

Lemira had never acted out like this before, even going as far as to use a lighter to set Evelina’s belongings on fire! It was so unlike her.

Lemira kicked a chair aside, her voice indifferent, tinged with impatience, “You all are too noisy, if you don’t want to eat, then let’s not

eat at all!”

Her patience was wearing thin. She couldn’t stand watching the fake angel Evelina put on her act any longer. It was nauseating Evelina immediately burst into tears, “It’s all my fault, all my fault fm the real sinner here!”

“Eve, you’re just too kind. If anyone should leave, it’s her!”

mira readily agreed, “Fine, I’ll leave!” Now that her objective was achieved, she saw no reason to waste more time here, Lucian instantly objected, “No, Lemon, you can’t leave. This is your home. Where else could you go?”

“Lucian, just cancel her credit cards and let’s see how long she can last out there on her own!”

Lemira, unfazed, didn’t take it to heart the least bit, “Whatever.”

The memory

of her credit cards being canceled in her previous life, leaving her destitute and nearly begging on the streets, was something she could never forget

A person really needed to earn their own way in life.

Lemira returned to her room, packed a backpack with a few clothes and her ID, leaving everything else behind.

your exams?”

Lucian was panicking. “Lemon, don’t listen to Alaric’s nonsense, okay? Didn’t you say you’d come back after you

Lemira’s gaze was calm, “Yes, I did say that”

But she had only said it to prevent Lucian and Alaric from doing something drastic that could affect her exams judging from their personality.

Now that her exams were over, nothing could affect her anymore. Why should she continue to suffer in silence?

“Lemmy, we’re family, blood is thicker than water. Any misunderstandings we have aren’t insurmountable, right? I know I’ve been unfair to you in the past, and I really will make it up to you.”

Lucian had spent a sleepless night, too anxious to approach Lemira. But once he had a moment of clarity, all those past memories felt like knives, keeping him awake

From the moment Evelina joined them, Lemira had been mistreated.

All these years, Lucian had avoided thinking too deeply about it. The more he thought, the more panic he became

Lemira suddenly smiled, her tone serene, “Lucian, don’t say that. I plan to find a part–time job and learn to live independently. Let Evelina have my room. After all, her father saved my life. It’s only right to treat her well”

Alaric walked over “Hmph, you should have done that a long time ago.”

It seemed Lemira was still afraid of cutting ties with him!

Lemira continued, “Now that the exams are over, Evelina can continue with her team training. She is, after all, a Langston. It wouldn’t be fair to exclude her just because she’s not the best at it”

Alaric struggled to maintain his composure, “0–Of course, I’ll make arrangements.”

Lemira nodded, “Good, Ill be leaving then. We’ll be in touch if anything comes

Without looking back, Lemira left the house.

Alaric suddenly panicked, “Lucian, are you really letting her go?”

Lucian gave a wry smile, “What else can I do? You were the one who told her to leave, weren’t you? Weren’t you the one who wanted to sever ties with her?”

“I was just being angry!”

“Alaric, the hurtful words you’ve said cant just be taken back that easily‘

The damage was done and would never dissipate. Lucian looked resigned, seeing in Alaric a reflection of his former self. Evelina, sensing Lucian’s mood shift, quickly offered, “Lucian, ll move out. Then maybe you can convince Lemmy to come back.” Lucian shook his head, “No need. You stay for now” Solving the issue with Lemira wasn’t as simple as Evelina moving out.
