Lemira lifted her eyelids, her cool gaze barely hiding her disdain. She glanced at the items scattered on the floor,
her hand already moving to shut the door. The butler, however, blocked her path, "Ms. Langston, if you've got
beef with me, just say it, but Ms. Sterling hasn't done anything to you!"
Lemira snorted, turning to grab a lighter from the table and tossed it onto the floor. The flcaught on a pile of
books, quickly engulfing them in fire. The butler's face went drastically pale, "Crazy, she's gone crazy!
Somebody, help! Fire!"
Only then did Lemira slam the door shut with a loud bang!
From inside, she could smell the burning, but calmly booted up her PC to game. Then, a lot of private messages
caught her eye.
Alaric had sent: [If you join our gaming squad, the deal we've got for you is solid. Got any other demands, just
throw them my way, I'll make sure you're satisfied.]
[Our SkyBlaze's got the backing of the Langston family, so finances aren't a worry. And my brother's got a media
company, we could make splans and easily spin this into a showbiz gig for you.]
[Not sure if you're studying or working, but joining SkyBlaze is a win-win. You don't even have to be full-twith
us, won't mess with your personal life. Think about it!]
Reading Alaric's messages, Lemira couldn't help but feel speechless. He still hadn't given up on her.
She typed back: [I'll think about it.]
Imagining Alaric's face if he ever found out who she really was behind the screen nbrought some
anticipation to her.
After finishing a glevel, a series of knocks cat the door.

"Lemira, cout!"
Hearing Alaric's voice, she leisurely sorted through her items, ignoring the noise outside.
Then, with a loud crash, the door flew open!
Alaric stormed in, his fury deepening at the sight of Lemira still gaming, "Lemira, look at what you've done! You
threw out Eve's stuff and set it on fire. This is beyond
unacceptable!"
Though initially skeptical, the sight of the charred remains in the hallway made him believe the worst.
Lemira quit her game, and swiveled her chair around, her gaze bland, "So, what about it?" Her tone was utterly
rebellious.
Alaric's head throbbed with anger, "I
know you've got issues with us,
thinking we've always favored
Evelina over you. But you couet
taken it out on us, not Eve, she
doesn't owe you anything. Don't forget, her dad once saved your life!"
"Don't say that, Alaric, I'll just move out. After all, I'm an adult now, no reason to keep leeching off the
Langstons," Evelina, holding her burned textbooks, looked on with tearful eyes, the very picture of injustice
suffered.
"Eve, don't talk like that. We'll let
Lucian see how Lemira really is when
he gets back. Now Ya pamode
EIBED is to hold back."
"Afaric, if my leaving makes things
right, if it helps Lemmy agree to join
the squad and compete in the finals,
then I'm willing to go!" The content is

Alaric scoffed, "Lemira, you think you're irreplaceable? Lettell you, the team doesn't need you."
Lemira raised an eyebrow; just moments ago, Alaric had been messaging her gaming account. People really did
wear many masks.
With a smug look, Alaric boasted,
"I've found a new gunner with real

"Absolutely. That person replied to my message just over an hour ago."
Lemira understood who was the person Alaric was talking. But she had only said she'd think about it, not that
she'd agreed.
She looked up, a playful smirk on her lips, "Alaric, are you that sure the person will join?"
"Of course. With the Langston team's
