Chapter 592
Timothy stood up with her. “Let’s go together then. I’ve got a part-time job at the gym p>
Lemira knew Timothy’s family wasn’t well-off. Besides training at the base, he worked part-time jobs to cover his living expenses.
The two of them headed to the gym across from the school.
After changing into her workout clothes, Lemira headed straight to the boxing area,
only to find Timothy there, sorting out equipment.
Surprised, she asked, “What are you doing here p>
“I’m working part-time here. I picked up some basics when I was working at another gym, and the coach asked me to help with some classes p>
Timothy noticed the red boxing gloves Lemira was holding. “I know that brand. They’re not cheap, right p>
It seemed red was the bestseller this year, selling out almost as soon as it hit the shelves.
Lemira glanced at the gloves. They were a gift from Orion.
Her expression was a bit forced. “How about you spar with me p>
She hadn’t booked a session with her coach since she decided to come last minute.
Timothy first guided Lemira through some stretches to relax her muscles, then they started sparring, both wearing their gloves. After a few rounds, Timothy paused. “You’re way more skilled than I am. How long have you been training p>
“About two months p>
“That’s impressive. Boxing isn’t easy, and it requires attention to detail. Whoever’s been teaching you must be really good p>
Was her trainer really that good?
Lemira thought of Orion. He’d been teaching her all along, and her expression turned a bit distant. “Let’s continue p>
Her mind was filled with thoughts of Orion.
As they continued sparring, Lemira got distracted and didn’t notice Timothy’s punch coming her way. She took the hit.
“Ouch p>
Lemira let out a cry and stumbled to the ground, feeling a bit dizzy.
“Captain, are you okay? I didn’t mean to p>
Timothy hadn’t expected Lemira to miss, and he was startled.
“It’s not your fault. I was just distracted p>
Lemira knew it wasn’t Timothy’s mistake. Her mind had wandered, which led to the mishap.
She forced herself to stand, and Timothy steadied her with a hand on her shoulder. “Let’s take a break over here p>
“Stop! What do you think you’re doing p>
Orion strode over, seeing Lemira in the arms of a younger guy, and his face darkened immediately.
He walked over with a fierce expression.
Lemira turned her head to see him approaching, his face as grim as a thundercloud.
Her head still spinning, she was about to explain when Orion swung a punch at Timothy.
Timothy, no match for Orion, hit the ropes and bounced back.
Orion grabbed Timothy’s shirt collar, his eyes icy. “Get out p>
Timothy wiped the blood from his nose. “Who do you think you are to tell me to leave p>
Orion saw the look in this kid’s eyes and knew he had his sights set.
Lemira His anger flared, and he get

But this time, Lemira stepped in and stopped him.
Despite her discomfort, she said, “Orion, stop it. Why are you hitting him p>
Orion’s body stiffened, and he turned to look at Lemira. “This punk was all over you, and you’re defending him p>
“He wasn’t p>
“I saw it with my own eyes p>
Orion’s voice was laced with anger “Lemira, thought you were ignoring me these past few days because t
