Chapter 99
Lemira locked eyes with Alaric. As a matter of fact, he too was eager to uncover the truth.
Alaric, noticing Lemira’s sarcastic expression, felt a sudden clarity. Deep down, he had his suspicions. After all, Lemira’s knack for gaming was undeniable. The girl who could pull off a twelve-hit combo was no longer the little sister who used to trail behind him. She had grown, even surpassing him in skill.
Evelina watched from the sidelines, her heart filled with resentment. Stepping forward with feigned concern, Evelina said, “Lemmy, if you really are the streamer SweetLemon, that’s just amazing.” Lemira lifted her eyelids, “Oh really p>
“Yes, you’ve become so outstanding. With you on our team, SkyBlaze is sure to win the championship, right Alaric p>
Alaric’s face twisted uncomfortably. Of course, he wanted Lemira back on the team!
He turned his head, coughing slightly, “I suppose it doesn’t matter to me p>
Lemira’s lips curled into a cold smirk, “I never said I’d participate in the finals p>
Alaric’s expression froze, “What do you mean p>
“You’ve forgotten your words? You said I was replaceable, that you already found a great team member, and I was nothing special p>
Lemira reminded him of their conversation back then. She was not the same Lemira anymore.
Hurt and mocked, then expected to come running back at a mere call? Never happening! With that, Lemira briskly left the school grounds. Alaric watched her leave, his mind replaying their conversation.
Back then, he thought he could sign SweetLemon. That was why he spoke so carelessly!
But now, Alaric realized that account might just be Lemira’s. The last thing he wanted to happen, happened.
Evelina chimed in, “Alaric, do you think Lemira could be SweetLemon? Their voices are identical, and she didn’t deny it just now p>
Alaric clenched his teeth, “I’m not sure p>
“But Alaric, even though this is good news, it means Lemira knew all along that you want to scout her and didn’t tell you. She’s been watching you make a fool of yourself!” Evelina emphasized “make a fool of yourself p>
Upon hearing it, Alaric felt his ego bruised, “I don’t think it’s her. Knowing her, she would’ve bragged about it if it were true p>
But Lemira didn’t confess, which to Alaric meant it wasn’t true. He could only persuade himself like that.
Evelina secretly breathed a sigh of relief, “I thought so too p>
Since Lemira hadn’t outright confessed, it indicated guilt. SweetLemon couldn’t be her!
After catching a cab, Lemira decided to visit the hospital. Even though Alaric didn’t tell her which one, she knew where Lucian would be treated. Upon arriving, she easily found Lucian’s room.
Stepping out of the elevator, she
hesitated unsure if she should approach. Suddenly, the room door swung open, and the butler looked surprised, “Ms. Langston, you finally came p>
Glancing into the room and seeing Lucian absent, the butler said coldly,
treatment. The doctor said the. stress affected his heart. He’ll Reed
“Mr. Lucian Langston is the not-
to take it easy from now on. Come with me p>
Lemira hesitated but followed him to a quiet corner. There, she saw Lucian resting, Evelina standing guard by his side, a scene of harmony.
“Ms. Sterling has been here, bringing
meals and keeping company, while you didn’t even bother to check in. Mr. Lueian Langston has been good to Ms. Sterling, shouldn’t he be p>
Lemira lowered her gaze, a self-mocking tone in her voice, “As long as he’s okay p>
Then, she turned and left the hospital.
