He looks somewhat familiar to me!" "Asher, have you met that school doctor before?" Asher squinted his eyes, "It might just be a resemblance. After all, that person's stature is such that even I've only seen him from a distance." In terms of social standing, the Langstons couldn't hold a candle to the Everhart family, the top clan in Orvin.
It was unlikely that their son would be found in such a place, let alone entangled with Lemira. He must have been mistaken.

The youngest recipient in our history and the top scorer of the recent exams - Lemira Langston!" Asher's face fell instantly, "How's that possible? She actually won." When did Lemira becso accomplished? Hearing her name, Lemira looked at Orion in shock.
Alaric beamed, "Isn't this great? My sister being so brilliant is just fantastic." But Asher felt as if his punch had landed on cotton - powerless and ineffective. He was in a subtle mood. Taking a deep breath, Lemira stepped onto the stage. Her new life was beginning.
After Lemira's speech, the emcee interviewed her, "Lemira, not only are you the top scorer, but you've also been involved in gdevelopment, which has been hugely popular.
Being so successful at such a young age, you've mentioned that your family has been a big influence, right? Today, the Langstons are here. Would they like to say a few words?" The microphone was promptly handed to Asher.
Holding it felt like handling a hot potato. With all eyes on him, Asher felt his face burning, "Lemira's achievements, of, of course, couldn't have been possible without ou family's nurturing and eat As a seasoned businessman, Asher was adept at saying things in a diplomatic way.
People around Asher, who were his old acquaintance, congratulated him, "Congrats, Mr. Langston, for having such an exceptional sister." "How did you nurture such a brilliant sister, Mr. Langston? You must share your secrets with us." Asher wore a smile, "Sure, sure. She's got good grades, but her personality is a bit off-track." He hadn't expected Lemira's academic title to be so advantageous. If Lemira recognized her mistakes, he was willing to let bygones be bygones and allow her to stay with the family. Lemira's lips curled into a cold smile as she heard this. The Langstons really had thick skins.

Lemira looked at Asher with a half-smile, "find it amusing. Claiming credit for my achievements without N my achi haying contributed anything, yet shamelessly attributing it to the Langston family's education?" The emcee was taken aback, "Ms. Langston, what do you mean?"
"It's simple. Before the exams, they forcedto take leave for a team competition, threatening to cut off my allowance otherwise. Thankfully, I survived on scholarships until the exams. Even when my grades improved significantly and I was accused of cheating, they forcedto admit guilt rather than believe in me. How can they claim to be my family?"
Lemira continued, her attitude composed and dignified, "Moreover, I've already severed ties with them Langstons have no family now!" Her words were like a bombshell, causing an uproar. Asher's face turned livid with rage, embarrassed like never before. How would Lemira dare to say such things in front of the media? Struggling to breathe, Asher clutched his chest. Alaric quickly supported him, "Asher, calm down. We wronged Lemira to begin with. It's only natural for her to be upset."
