"Evander, | get it. Being a part of the Langston family is awkward for me. Honestly, the only reason I'm still
around is because of them. If my death would bring peace to the Langstons, I'd be willing to go."
"I won't let you die!" Evander exclaimed, panic in his eyes. "If you die, then my life loses all meaning."
Without missing a beat, he grabbed the other paring knife from the table, but Asher quickly snatched it away.
"Are you crazy?" Asher barked.
"Asher, you know I've always had feelings for Eve. Ever since my leg was injured, | felt unworthy of her and
couldn't muster the courage to confess. I've only been able to watch over her from afar. But now that she wants
to be with me, I'm ready to protect her with my life."
Asher, holding the knife, seemed more defeated than ever.
Meanwhile, Lemira stood by, watching the unfold with an apple slice in her hand. "Go on, why stop now?"
she teased.
"Lemira, do you have any decency? Can you really stand by and let Eve die?" Evander snapped, knocking the
fruit plate out of Lemira's hand in frustration.
Lemira responded coolly, "Well, if you wantto drop the matter with Evelina, there's a deal | proposed to
Asher, but it seems he hasn't shared it with you."
Both Evander and Evelina turned to Asher, curiosity piqued.
Evander cut to the chase, "Asher, what exactly did Lemira propose?"
Asher's expression faltered, silence taking hold.
Lemira smirked, "Evander, remember how | took the blfor your accident all these years? Asher should clear
my name."
She turned to Asher, "Just speak the truth about what happened back then, and I'll drop everything. Isn't that a

Evander stepped forward, his gaze fixed on Asher. "Asher, what's going on?"
Cornered, Asher's frustration
simmered beneath the surface, no match for Lemira's persistence. He hesitated before speaking, "Evander,
when you had your accident and needed amputation, | was Q

perspective back then!"
Lemira interrupted his rambling, "So, you deliberately ignored the calls, forcingto decide, right?"
Asher's face turned ashen, and after a tense pause, he quietly admitted, "Yes."
The word barely carried any weight, but Lemira turned to Evander triumphantly, "You heard it. Your leg wasn't
lost because of me!"
Evander's face shifted through a palette of emotions, disbelief written all over as he looked at Asher. "Why? My
leg could've been saved!"
If Asher had made the decision, maybe things would've been different. Maybe his leg would've been saved.
Asher's expression was pained,
admitting this hurt more than
anything. He glared at Lemira, "I've
done what you asked. Now you
must keep your end and not hold
Eve accountable."
