Chapter 682
She looked at him. “But hiding it from everyone… I guess that’s a rich person’s worry. I’m glad I’m not that wealthy; I don’t have to be so guarded with everyone p>
Orion’s gaze deepened. He touched her forehead and, finding her temperature back to normal, finally relaxed.
He glanced at the takeout containers on the table. “Did your classmates visit p>
“Yes, my two roommates came by and brought me dinner p>
“It’s cold and a bit greasy. Not suitable for you right now. I’ll get you something else p>
Orion inspected the containers with a hint of disdain and promptly gathered them up.
A short while later, Orion returned with dinner delivered from Bistrova and placed it
in front of Lemira. “See what you’d like to eat p>
Lemira had some soup. The light meal was indeed more suited to her current appetite.
She glanced at the man before her. “Have you eaten p>
At that, Orion took her cutlery and began to eat the rest of her food.
Lemira froze, then said slowly, “I’ve already eaten from that p>
“I know p>
Orion ate quickly, finishing in just a few bites.
He put down his fork. “I’ll have the TG Group’s PR team stay with you tonight. Let them know if you need anything p>
“That’s not necessary. I’ll be fine on my own p>
“They were assigned to serve you. If you don’t need them, they’ll be out of a job p>
Lemira was surprised. “But aren’t they from TG Group’s PR team p>
How could they lose their jobs?
“The first time they came to the hospital to cause trouble for you, they were fired. The only reason they’re still with TG Group is because they need to stay by your side p>
Orion’s tone was calm, as if he were discussing something completely ordinary. Lemira frowned. “I can hire them myself p>
She knew wealthy families often had personal assistant teams to handle daily life, and even dedicated PR teams.
But she and Orion weren’t married. Why should she accept a personal team he arranged?
It felt strange.
Orion packed up the containers. “That’s fine p>
Lemira watched him go. “By the way, how is your grandmother p>
“Are you worried p>
Orion turned back. “I’ll take you to see her tomorrow. Don’t worry, I’ve already told her about you p>
“What? You’ve mentioned me before p>
Lemira’s heart beat faster. “What did you say p>
“Nothing much. Just told her that I’d found a girl I like p>
His casual words instantly shattered the defenses around Lemira’s heart.
“Lemmy, even though I hid my identity, my feelings for you are real p>
A tremor went through Lemira’s
heart Outwardly, she showed nos reaction but inside, a storm
raging.
She had once suspected Orion hid his identity because he was guarded with her.
During her time with the Langston family, she had seen the kind of
attitude wealthy men hat whe
dating girls from ordinary families.
While the Langstons were wealthy, compared to the Everharts, they were practically
an ordinary family.
She was genuinely angry about his deception, feeling disrespected.
But in reality, it was her own insecurity about the relationship.
The gap in status between the Everhart and Langston families was too vast; she had little confidence.
“Good night. Get some rest p>
After Orion left, he closed the door behind him.
Lemira lay alone in her hospital bed, her mind a tangled mess. His words had completely unsettled her.
What on earth would his grandmother want to say to her?
Lemira tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Soon, there was a knock on the door. She sat up. “Who is it p>
Could it be the PR team?

The door opened to reveal a man dressed as a butler. “Ms. Langston, my mistress would like to see you now. Alone p>
