NovelOnlineChapter 201 Lemira finished speaking, her gaze fixed intently on Lucian.
She watched as his expression shifted from anticipation to hesitation. A cold smirk played at Lemira's lips. This reaction was entirely within her expectations. Such lack of sincerity, and they expected her to stay with the Langstons? Lucian struggled to find words, torn between two choices. Alaric intervened, "Lemira, don't you think you're being a bit harsh? It's us who owe you, not Eve, right?" Oh, please.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe amusement in Lemira's eyes intensified. She said that deliberately in an attempt to tear off the Langstons' mask of hypocrisy.
At this, Evelina bit her lip and said, "Lucian, Alaric, it's okay. I can leave. Growing up with you has been more than enough for me. If it means Lemira will cback, I'm willing to move out." Asher was the first to object, "No way, what does that make us then? Your father saved Lemira's life and died in that car accident because he went back to save our parents. How could we possibly abandon you?" Bringing Evelina into their hwas meant as a gesture of gratitude.
Evelina lowered her eyes, feeling somewhat guilty. She had always thought her father was dead, but the man she had recently contacted, though she hadn't met him, sounded so much like her father through their conversation! If her father wasn't dead, then who died in that car accident? And why had her father been living incognito for so many years? What secret was hidden behind that accident? She had asked the mysterious man, but he disclosed nothing, only asking her for money.
These suspicions flashed through Evelina's mind, but she dared not show them. Fearful of the Langstons discovering the truth, she couldn't risk losing her privileged life! This secret was suffocating her.
Now, with Asher bringing up her father again, Evelina felt increasingly anxious, afraid of any unforeseen complications.
Hearing Asher's words, Lemira responded blandly, "If that's the case, then there's nothing more to say." Asher's tone hardened, "Lemira, if you insist on leaving in a huff, then don't bother coming back, and don't expect any financial support from the Langston family." "Fine, but since we're laying everything out, I have something to say too." Lemira pulled out a document from her bag, "This is a severance agreement. I've already signed it." She had almost forgotten she brought the document to the hospital amidst all the unfolding . Had Asher not mentioned severing ties, it wouldn't have even crossed her mind.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe document now lay before everyone.
Lucian, standing closest, saw it most clearly. The words "severance agreement" pierced his eyes, filling him with an unbearable pain. Lucian felt as if a weight pressed on his chest, his voice hoarse, "Lemmy, do you really have to be this heartless?" "Lucian, let's get one thing straight, I'm not the one who initiated this eviction." Lemira tossed the document at Lucian and turned to leave.
Lucian reached out to catch it but grasped at air, much like his failed attempt to keep Lemira by his side.
Asher, observing the document on the floor, was visibly astonished. He looked incredulously at Lucian and Alaric
laric "What exactly happened while I was away? Why has Lemira changed el so much?"
In the past, had he told Lemira to leave and not cback, she would have never dared defy him.
But now, not only had Lemira left, she even threw down a severance m agreement signed and everything! This was no longer a tantrum; she was serious.
