Chapter 728
Orion’s eyes were icy cold. “I can’t stand people who insult women without a second thought p>
The middle-aged man’s expression changed instantly; sweat broke out across his forehead and he didn’t dare say a word in protest.
Orion, finding the situation beneath his interest, stood up and walked away.
Someone nearby leaned over to the man and whispered, “Mr. Waverly, haven’t you heard? Mr. Everhart has a girlfriend he really likes he even broke off his engagement to the Sinclair family for her p>
“You mean that girl is Mr. Everhart’s girlfriend p>
“Most likely. Didn’t you see how he stepped in to defend her just now? Did you think everyone’s as shameless as you p>
At that, the middle-aged man broke out in a cold sweat from head to toe. This was bad—he’d been hoping to work with them, but now it was all ruined.
Lemira strode out, still fuming. If the circumstances had been different, she would have punched that man herself.
“Lemira, are you… are you alright p>
The student council president hurried over, handing her a bottle of water. “A lot of people saw what happened. If you want to report them for harassment, we can all testify for you p>
Lemira shook her head. “No, that’s okay. I’ll handle it myself p>
At that moment, Orion walked over. He ignored the student council president completely and stopped in front of Lemira, his tone gentle. “Still upset? I already taught that guy a lesson for you p>
The student council president found his courage and stepped forward. “Sir, you were part of that harassment, too. Please stay away from her, or we’ll call the police p>
Orion shot the young man a glance, his gaze intense and intimidating.
The student council president, just a student, had never faced someone with Orion’s presence—a man seasoned by years in the business world. He was instantly cowed.
Orion turned back to Lemira. “Did I harass you? Exactly where did I touch you p>
Lemira quickly pulled him aside, her face warm with embarrassment. “Enough. Just stop talking p>
ét
Orion could have shrugged her off, but instead, he obediently stood by her side glanging back at the student council president with a hint of smugness.
Seeing this, the president realized Lemira’s relationship with this man was anything but ordinary.
Lemira spoke up, “President, it’s alright. I’ve already taken care of it, but thank you for your help p>
“You’re welcome. I’ll be around just let me know if you need anything p>
Lemira nodded and watched him walk away.
“He’s gone now. Why are you still looking that way p>
Orion frowned, stepping to block her view. “Is he better looking than me p>
Lemira turned her head away, not meeting his eyes. “At least he was trying to help
me p>
“I think he just wanted to play the hero,” Qrion replied, his tone levekbut his heart a little uneasy. All the guys around her were young close to her age, with plenty in common.
A pang of jealousy hit him. “Lemmy, you still owe me a dinner p>
“I know p>
“How about tonight? I know you’re done with classes p>
Lemira found an excuse. “I have training at the base tonight p>
“I’ll take you back right after dinner-it won’t interfere with your training p>
Orion looked at her, his tone
softening. “We haven’t seen each
otheram so long. It’s just a meal promise won’t bite. Besides ve found some leads on the Sinclair family p>
Lemira’s head snapped up. “What did you find p>
He lowered his voice. “This isn’t the place to talk about it p>
Just then, Lemira’s sharp eyes caught sight of Asher arriving with Evelina.
What are they doing here?
