Chapter 29 Lemira stood firm , her mind made up about leaving the mansion for good . Alaric scoffed , Fine , get the hell out then! Id love to see how well you do without the Langston fortune backing you ! Lucian couldnt bear it any longer , Thats enough , Alaric . Lucian , look here , it was Lemira who wanted to bail on us first ! Shes the one turning her back on our family ! Alarics eyes were bloodshot , his emotions running high . He had already swallowed his pride today , yet Lemira still wanted to leave . Was she waiting for him , her brother , to get down on his knees and beg for forgiveness ? Evelina quickly intervened , Alaric , calm down , will you ? Lemmys just joking around . If she doesnt want to tutor me , its fine . We have a private tutor , and Im quite happy with that , really . Alaric glared fiercely at Lemira , Look how considerate Eve is , and then theres you . Have you ever stopped to reflect on your actions , mira ? Alanc , lets just go . I have some game moves I need to ask you about . Evelina glanced back at Lucian , Well be off then , Lucian . Go ahead . Seeing Evelinas understanding nature softened Lucian a bit more . Evelina wasnt originally a part of the Langston clan , but she had let her grades slip all for the sake of team training . She always knew how to smooth things over when conflicts arose at home . Compared to Lemiras actions , Evelina seemed all the more sensible . Lucian looked at Lemira with disappointment , Dont take Alarics words to heart . Youre still one of us , a Langston . Lemira replied calmly , I think its better if I move out . Lucians expression darkened , Lemmy , what do you want us to do to return to those happy days when we all got along ? The way things used to be ? Lemira felt a surge of fatigue . She didnt even have the energy to respond . Just disappointment . With a forced smile , Lemira said , Thats not possible . After her cold reply , she headed straight for her room upstairs . She would not , like in her previous life , humbly give her all only to be utterly ignored and eventually abandoned . Never again ! After this incident , Lemira and her brothers entered a cold war period where they hardly spoke . But she relished the peace , no longer having to deal with them . Soon , the team revival match was upon them , scheduled for this Saturday . Evelina had been absent from school for days , claiming she was sick , but Lemira knew she was prepping for the competition . Lemiras daily routine of eating and attending school remained unaffected . Lucian approached her , leaving a ticket for the match , Theres a game this afternoon . You should come and support them . Lemíra responded indifferently , Got it . Lemira didnt even seem concerned about their match preparation . Seeing her indifference , especially compared to Evelinas dedication to the point of skipping school , Lucian felt even more disheartened . Lemmy , one day youll understand we only mean well . Without saying more , Lucian left the hall . Lemira felt so disgusted by his words that she lost her appetite . She put down her utensil ; the thought of moving out grew stronger in her mind . She picked up the match ticket , intent on going . She wanted to witness firsthand how Alarics team would fail without her efforts . She snapped a photo of the ticket and sent it to Orion . [ Im going to the match this afternoon , wont be on the game . ] They had planned to play together this weekend . Orion replied instantly . ] As he messaged back , a nosy figure tried to peek at the conversation but couldnt see anything . Thaddeus clasped his chest , Come on , let me have a look . Why so petty ? Orion gave him a glance , Got nothing better to do , huh ? Why so serious ? I mean , you could just compensate her directly for your guilt .
