Evelina tried to sound casual, "Lucian, Lemmy skipping out oning home for exams, if Asher finds out, it''s going to be a disaster!" "Enough!"


    Lucian''s tone was icy, "As long as you keep quiet, I keep quiet, Asher won''t find out."


    Evelina looked a bit awkward, "Of...course."


    Damn it, without Lemira at the Langston''s, she couldn''t y her tricks.


    ---


    Lemira returned to the apartment.


    Thaddeus was fuming, "What''s with people? They have to apologize now? Force you to ept it?"


    Initially, Thaddeus just thought the Langston brothers were a bit biased. Today, he realized it wasn''t just bias; it was outright blindness! Lemira handed Thaddeus a ss of water, "Don''t be mad, I''m not even upset."


    "How can you not be upset?"


    "I''m used to it, it''s always been this way," Lemira''s expression was serene as she spoke.


    Thaddeus clutched his chest, "Damn, I can''t take it. I''m going to the balcony for a smoke to cool off."


    Orion came out with a fruit tter, his slender fingers clearly defined. He set the tter in front of her, "Eat up, vitamins are good for the brain." Lemira blinked, "Why are you insulting me?"This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    "nning on going back after exams?"


    Oh, he heard that. Lemira took the fruit tter, "Gotta go pack to get my stuff."


    Orion sat on the couch, "Just don''t do anything foolish!"


    "I know, I''ll never go soft or forgive."


    Lemira''s gaze was unwavering.


    The rest of the exams went smoothly for her. After finishing thest one, Lemira felt a huge relief.


    She''d held on for so long, and it was finally over!


    Walking out of the ssroom, Lemira was in high spirits, overhearing ssmates, including Evelina, discussing the exam.


    Jessica looked at Lemira, "How''d it


    go for you? Heard you had some


    issues with your stationery


    the exam, it might have some


    influence, but as long as the contents were fine, you shouldn''t lose points."


    Evelina quickly acted concerned, "Lemmy, even if you did poorly, it''s okay."


    Lemira nced at her, "Still did better than you though!"


    Evelina''s face stiffened, "Lemmy, don''t be mad."


    "Even though I was mad, I did the exam better than you!" Lemira''s words were like a dagger.


    Jessica was shocked, gazing at Lemira, Lemira was usually so timid; though she''d be sharper in thest few months, she rarely spoke like that to people.


    Post-exams, Lemira seemed even more outspoken.


    Lemira slowly turned and walked away, her figure leisurely among the crowd.


    Evelina was fuming. Had Lemira gone mad?


    She looked pitifully at Jessica, "I was just trying to be caring."


    Jessica didn''t hold back, "Whether you''re genuinely concerned about Lemira or just wanting to see her fail, poking at her weaknesses, only you know."


    "Exactly, thinking you can y the fake angel; we''re not blind. Only Lemira was naive enough to be bullied by you for so long."


    Evelina''s eyes instantly reddened with tears, while Jessica and the others left, leaving her unattended.


    Evelina stood alone, her gaze darkening. Yet, she hurried after them, knowing Lucian would show up.


    Just as Lemira stepped out of the


    school gate, she saw a row of red


    sports ears, all bearing a banner "Wishing Sweet Lemon Endless Sess And a Victorious Path Ahead!"


    This spectacle seemed a bit much.
