Chapter 508
Evelina had become quite accustomed to the privileged lifestyle with the Langston family. Now, as she watched her image of the “two-faced” girl crumble bit by bit, she was certain she would need to reach out to her father.
Over the next few days, Evelina found herself being reprimanded on set. Her agent’s demeanor towards her had also turned chilly, likely under Caspian’s orders.
By Friday, Lemira realized she had been added back into the family group chat. She recalled leaving the chat after her rebirth. Glancing at the messages, she saw Lucian tagging her: [Tomorrow’s the weekend. Are you free to come home for dinner tonight p>
Intent on playing her role to the fullest, Lemira agreed, planning to stir things up at the Langston household.
Meanwhile, outside, Evelina also saw the group chat message. Enraged, she smashed the cup in her hand. The group chat had been blissfully free of Lemira, but now she was coming back to disrupt everything.
Storming off to a secluded spot, Evelina pulled out an old spare phone and made a call, her voice trembling with emotion, “How much longer do I have to endure this? Can’t we get rid of Lemira like we did with that car accident p>
“Eve, patience is crucial. Didn’t you mention the Langston family is investigating the accident? We can’t make a move now, or they’ll find out p>
“So I just have to keep putting up with this p>
“For now, yes. But remember, you can still pull some cash from the Aurora Trust. And if you can persuade Asher to collaborate with my recommended partners on the Al project, we’ll be able to drain a significant portion of the Langston Group’s funds. Then, you won’t have to endure the Langston family any longer p>
Evelina reluctantly agreed. She would endure it a bit longer. Once the Langston family went bankrupt, she’d repay today’s humiliation a hundredfold.
After Lemira’s team training finished, she received a call from Orion. His voice was composed, “Any plans for the weekend p>
“Not really, though I do plan to drop by the Langston family tonight. Got to keep up appearances p>
Orion detected a hint of eagerness in her voice, “You seem quite enthusiastic p>
“Of course, it’s going to be quite the spectacle p>
“But I’m concerned about you going there alone. I’ll come with you p>
What if the Langston family tried to cause trouble for Lemira?
Lemira almost choked on her drink, “You want to come with me to the Langston family p>
“Yeah, unless I’m unwelcome p>
She chuckled, “It’s not that. There’s just no need for you to meet them Maybe during the holidays, you can come with me to visit my parents’ graves p>
In her heart, only her parents were her true family.
Orion paused for a moment before replying, “Alright p>
He felt uncertain. When the time came to reveal everything, would Lemira still want to be with him?
“Okay, let’s have dinner together tomorrow then p>
“Sure, send me your address and keep me updated on your plans p>
Lemira complied, sending her address to Orion. As she stepped out of campus, ready to hail a cab, she noticed Caspian’s car parked by the curb, her agent standing outside. “Ms Lemira, our future Oscar winner has come to take you home for dinner p>
At that moment, Evelina emerged from the school and recognized Caspian’s car. Grinding her teeth,” she approached, “Caspian, are you here to take us home p>
Caspian rolled down the window, a mask partially obscuring his face, his eyes
cold, “I’m here to take my sister home. Who do you think you are p>
