Through her tears, Evelina responded, "Alaric, I'm on the rooftop. Lemmy wanted to meet here. She wanted to end me. I was terrified!" "I'll be right there."

Without giving Alaric a second glance, Lemira continued on her way. As they passed each other, it was as if they were complete strangers.
Feeling a heavy weight in his heart, Alaric couldn't help but turn around, "Lemira!" Lemira didn't look back, acting as if she hadn't heard him.
Alaric, unable to let it go, followed her, "Lemira, wait! Eve just called me, saying you wanted to meet her on the rooftop and push her off?" Lemira barely lifted her eyelids, "Are you accusing me?"

She was determined to shift the blonto the Sinclairs! That way, no one would suspect her, nor discover the truth about her father, who was supposedly dead.
Alaric, recalling Lemira's words, was momentarily distracted.
"Alaric, you have to stand up for me. I almost died, really."
Alaric returned to the moment, "It'snot like you were harmed, right? Lemira was just blowing off steam. She never intended to actually kill you. Let's just drop it, she's a victim too." Hearing that, Evelina was so frustrated she nearly choked on blood!
