NovelEnglishShe approached slowly, her presence making the sidekick step back in apprehension.
Her voice was cool and detached, "Knowing full well that I am a Langston, you better watch your step. Otherwise, I'll hand over all the evidence of you helping Evelina cheat to the school. Evelina might get off scot- free, but you? I wouldn't be so sure." Ever since the cheating scandal, Wendy had taken leave and hadn't returned to school.

Only then did Lemira exit the restroom, to be met by Jessica, "Lemira, if Evelina decides to snitch to the teachers, I can vouch for you. It was them who started badmouthing you." At the sight of Jessica, Lemira's expression softened slightly, "Thanks." She hadn't wanted to deal with Evelina and her clique. But speople just need to be set straight! Jessica adjusted her black-framed glasses, a hint of guilt in her expression, "I'm so sorry, we all misunderstood you because of Evelina's act, and you've been ostracized for so long." Everyone had thought poorly of Lemira, blaming her for bullying Evelina.
"It's all in the past," Lemira spoke with indifference.
Indeed, because of Evelina, she had been friendless in class. She had too much on her plate now to dwell on these matters.
When Lemira returned to the classroom, she didn't even glance at Evelina. Her words to the sidekick served as a warning to Evelina as well.
The rain had poured all day long.
At the end of the school day, Orion texted her to wait up. Lemira, umbrella in hand, headed straight for the infirmary.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhat she hadn't expected was to find Evelina there, lying on a bed receiving IV fluids. But wasn't Evelina supposed to have been picked up by her family? Why was she here? Orion, busy with the IV bag, uttered as he noticed Lemira, "Just a minute." Lemira nodded.
Looking weak, Evelina spoke, "Lemmy, you're here. Lucian was supposed to pickup, but he hasn't shown up. Could you call him for me?" Lemira's lips were pressed, "Don't you have hands?" "Eve, are you okay?" Braving the rain, Alaric walked in. Seeing Evelina on the bed, he frowned at Lemira, "Eve's sick and just needs a phone call. Is that so hard? You can have your grievances against us, but Eve owes you nothing." He had overheard Lemira's refusal, so cold and distant.
Lemira was no stranger to such accusations, while Orion's response was icy, "Isn't it the responsibility of you, the family, rather than Lemira?" "It's all because Lemira refused to
share her umbrella with Evelina this morning, making her catch a cold!" Alaric was indignant, "Lemirad know your grades have improved, but that doesn't give you the right to let Eve get sick. You knew her poor health conditions, how could you just turn her away?" Lemira remained impassive, "Because I dislike her."
"Lemira! That's too much, Eve's father once saved your life! Is this how you treat the daughter of your savior?" Alaric couldn't 't contain his anger. Seeing Lemira's aloofness, he was disappointed, "Lemira, ever since you started hanging out with this school doctor, you've becless like you." Orion scoffed, "It's not that Lemira
has changed, but rather, she's no longer part of your squad, no longer the pushover you could bully and boss around like a dog. That's why you're getting furious. You're just upset because you can't benefit from Lemira anymore." Alaric was livid immediately, "Lemira, is that what you think, too?"
