NovelEnglishChapter 399 Lemira gave Caspian a fleeting glance, her eyes brimming with sarcasm.
Seeing that look, a surge of anger sparked within Caspian.
He raised his hand, intent on striking her, but Lemira stood her ground, her gaze dark and unyielding. Caspian held back, but eventually reached out to grab Lemira's arm, hoping to pull her in front of Susanna to apologize.
Lemira caught Caspian's approaching hand, twisted his arm with a swift motion.
Caspian's face turned pale with pain. He tried to resist, but the pain in his arm only intensified.

Evelina's voice was filled with urgency, yet a hint of triumph flickered in her eyes. After all, Caspian was a celebrity, and being treated like this by Lemira in public wouldn't bode well for her. Now, both Lucian and Alaric seemed to side with Lemira.
She needed to prevent the other siblings from aligning with Lemira as well.
After releasing her grip, Lemira spoke calmly, "Mr. Caspian, you were the one who initiated this. I was merely defending myself." Caspian felt humiliated, not expecting Lemira to have becso skilled.
Was this the stimid sister he remembered? Evelina immediately stepped in front of Caspian, "Lemmy, that was too much. Caspian was only trying to help you." "That kind of help I can do without," Lemira retorted.
Caspian, red with rage, declared, "Fine, Lemira, now I see your true colors. I cback intending to offer you opportunities. Since you so clearly disdain everything the Langston family stands for, don't blme for redirecting everything to Eve." In the past, this would have terrified Lemira.
But now, Caspian couldn't find a trace of fear on her face, which unsettled him.
Was Lemira truly indifferent to him diverting resources to Evelina? Lemira's expression remained cool, "Do as you wish. I've never cared for the resources you dangle." She had always been by Caspian's side, writing scripts for him, brainstorming new project ideas for him. That was her trying to forge a good relationship with Caspian, trying to support him in her own way.
She had never anticipated receiving anything in return from Caspian.
Caspian still disbelieved, "We'll see how long you can keep up this facade." Evelina, though elated, had to suppress her excitement, "Lemmy, Caspian's just joking. How could I possibly take your opportunities?" "Ha, Eve, don't be modest. Caspian means what he says. Since speople are ungrateful, I see no reason to be kind to them anymore." Caspian, feeling deeply embarrassed, turned and left.
Lemira found the entire situation laughable. In her past life, the so-called opportunities given to her by Caspian had all ended up with Evelina anyway.
And yet, they dared to use these as a threat against her now. But this taround, she didn't care in the slightest.
Evelina, believing her schhad succeeded, was in high spirits, confident that Caspian would never forgive Lemira.

Evelina chimed in, "Ms. Sinclair, Lemira has made a nfor herself, I hear her signing bonus was a million dollars. Perhaps she feels she no longer needs Caspian's help." "Ha, a few million? That's less than my annual allowance," Michel scoffed.
"But Lemira earned that herself, Ms.
Sinclair. You just hold out your hand to your family for money. How are those two things even comparable?" Susanna, irked, fixed her gaze on Michel, "How dare you insult mezet Just ait, I'll have my dad deal with you all. You think your team can stand up to me?" She had cspecifically to deal with Lemira, the wretch.
Michel's tone carried disdain, "Ms.
Sinclair, weren't you aware our team is backed by the Everhart family?"
"And my sister's about to be engaged to the Everharts, soon to becthe young Mrs. Everhart. You'll be the first we let go!" That reminder hit Susanna - the Reapers were indeed financed by the Everharts.
