Chapter 11 Chapter 11 Lemira took a cab back to the Langston mansion . As she stepped into the foyer , she could hear Evelinas laughter , sounding blissful and carefree . However , the moment she appeared , the atmosphere shifted to a tense silence . Lemira , with a poker face , walked past the foyer , intending to head straight to her room . Caspians voice boomed , Lemira , stop right there ! Coming home and not even greeting your elders , is this your attitude now ? So just because the school doctor has your back and even threatened to call the cops , you think youve got it all covered ? Without the Langstons , youre nothing ! Caspian grew angrier as he spoke , eventually standing up , You think we favor Evelina , but you dont see how terribly youve treated her ! Her dad saved your life , were just paying your dues for you ! emira felt utterly drained . She paused , looking towards the couch , Lucian , Caspian , Im home , thinking that should suffice . Lucian spoke up . Dinners ready . You all go ahead , Im not hungry , after saying that , Lemira turned and went upstairs . Lucian , look at her attitude , shes becoming more and more unruly ! Evelina chimed in , Caspian , dont be mad , its all my fault . Maybe if I leave the Langston family , Lemmy wont be so upset anymore . Dont talk nonsense , if anyone should leave , its Lemira . Why should you go ? These words followed Lemira as she quickened her pace back to her room , immediately locking the door behind her . She leaned against the door , taking a moment to breathe , her eyes slightly moist . She looked up at the ceiling , pushing the tears back . This time , she wouldnt cling to any false sense of sibling affection . The next day , Lemira went to school as usual . Evelina shared a ride with her . Evelina glanced at her cautiously , Lemmy , are you still mad at me ? Evelina , always playing the victim , doesnt it tire you ? Lemira leaned against the window , closing her eyes to sleep , ignoring Evelina . Evelinas expression darkened , but with the driver present , she put on a pitiful look , smiling at the driver . The driver instantly felt that Ms. Langston was being too harsh , bullying Evelina like that . He decided hed have a word with Mr. Lucian Langston about this . After school , Lemira focused on her lessons and notes , aware she had missed a lot . Even with Evelinas sidekicks and their supporters buzzing around , Lemira didnt care . She had too much to do to waste time on them . Upon returning home in the evening , Lemira saw Alaric sitting on the couch , clearly in a bad mood . Evelina ran over , trying to be adorable , Ari , youre back , Ive missed you so much over these days ! Alarics mood was initially sour , but it softened after Evelinas cajoling . Lemira glanced at their interaction and headed upstairs . Alaric looked up . Lemira , Caspian mentioned youve become increasingly disobedient . I didnt believe it until now . Cant you even say hello to me anymore ? Lemira sighed , thinking , Here we go again . Not wanting to waste more time , she turned around and dutifully greeted , Alaric . Thats more like it . Im planning to reassemble the gaming team . Lucian , Caspian , they all agreed . You should join too . Lemiras grip on her backpack tightened . This was exactly how it happened in the last life . To make Alaric happy , to gain her brothers attention , she had agreed without hesitation , and then trained relentlessly , even at the expense of her studies . And what was the outcome ?
