NovelOnline"I just hope everything stays peaceful before the exams. We're all doing this for her own good. What do you think?" Orion's voice was calm, laced with a hint of arrogance, "You're not in a position to talk to me, and no one can force Lemira to agree. Otherwise, the kind of trouble your company faced before that playoff, it'll happen again." Lucian's face paled, "Was that your doing?" They were supposed to participate in the competition. But their company ran into trouble at the stime, and both Lucian and Caspian had to miss the competition. Caspian was still stuck there, dealing with the aftermath, unable to return.
Lucian's gaze towards Orion hardened, "Who exactly are you? What are your intentions with getting close to Lemira?" A school doctor, pulling off something like this? Why would he deliberately get close to Lemira? Orion's tone was boldly dismissive, "That's none of your business. In any case, nobody can stop Lemira from doing what she wants!" Lucian's Adam's apple bobbed, "But she'll agree. Though she hit them yesterday, Lemira is a kind-hearted kid."

en After thinking for a moment, Lemira said, "Lucian talked totoday. To avoid any unnecessary trouble, I've decided to move back home." "Suit yourself," Orion's tone was somewhat cold.
Lemira glanced at him, "Then I'll head back to class." She left without further explanation.
As she walked away, a voice called out, "Lemmy, don't be mad at Orion. It's just his way." "I know, I'm not mad." "Then why suddenly decide to move back? Your brothers always favored that adopted sister over you, didn't they?" Lemira hesitated before saying, "I'm worried Asher will find out and cause trouble. He has a short fuse, and Ddon't want him to make things difficult for Orion." "It seems you as his protegé is grateful."

Back when Lemira was with the Langston family, they never cared that much about her. Now that she'd gone, they sharfielessly try to pull her back. "Orion, there's something I've always wondered about. How did Lemon learn the twelve-hit combo? That's your signature move!"
