Chapter 22 Evelina was at it again . She quickly jumped in , Sir , I just knew she wouldnt cheat . Lets not jump to conclusions , okay ? If you nullify her grades , it might seem like upholding fairness , but itll really hurt her. After some thought , the teacher said , Lemiras rank will be put on hold for now , pending further investigation . If the cheating turns out to be true , appropriate action will be taken . Once the teacher left , the classroom erupted into noise . One of Evelinas sidekicks sneered , I just knew her sudden improvement had to be cheating . A smug look crossed Evelinas face as she quickly texted Alaric . Alaric , what do we do ? Lemmy cheated to win your bet , and now she might get a disciplinary note . Im so worried about Lemmy ! ] Lemira simply opened her book and started reviewing . She didnt care about her rank being nullified . Evelina might influence the teacher , but she couldnt influence the university entrance exam scores ! Yet , she felt a pang of discomfort . After all , she had made plans with Orion that if she ranked in the top 100 , theyd play video games together . But she hadnt been to the infirmary lately , and Orion hadnt replied to any of her messages . Feeling a bit down , Lemira thought she had finally made a friend , but perhaps she was just overthinking it . As the morning classes ended , shrieks of excitement came from outside the classroom . Lemira looked up to see Alaric had arrived . What was he doing here ? Evelina , your brother is so hot . Proudly , Evelina accepted a cupcake from Alaric , Alaric , Lemmys right here . Maybe you should talk to her . If she apologizes and admits to the cheating , maybe she wont get disciplined . Alaric glanced at Lemira in the classroom . But Lemira didnt look up , quietly focused on her textbook . She knew why Alaric was here without guessing ; Evelina couldnt wait to see her humiliated . But she didnt care about her rank being nullified . And she definitely wouldnt admit to cheating ! Standing at the classroom door , Evelina feigned concern , Lemmy , Alarics here . Dont worry . Lemira pretended not to hear , ignoring Alaric outside . Alarics expression soured , his slight worry quickly fading away . What was there to worry about Lemira for ? He coldly said , Ill go see the teacher in the office first . And with that , Alaric turned and left . Only then did Evelina approach Lemira with the cupcake , Lemmy , Alaric only brought one cupcake for me . He probably just forgot about you . Ill share it with you . Lemira could see right through Evelinas bragging . She was used to it by now ; every time her brother visited , he brought gifts only for Evelina . She never got anything . She once complained to Lucian , who told her she was being naughty and didnt deserve gifts . But now , she couldnt care less about these so called gifts . Lemiras phone rang , and she saw it was Orion . She quickly stepped into the hallway , taking a deep breath before answering , Hello , Orion . How did the grades go ? Lemira felt a lump in her throat , I was ranked in the top 100 , but it looks like my score might be nullified . Orions laid back tone instantly turned serious as he heard this , What happened ? 1/1 Discover our latest featured short drama reel. Watch now and enjoy the story!
