Chapter 17

Lemira straightened her back, knowing deep down that Evelina's father had saved her life. So, when Asher brought Evelina home, she didn't object. In fact, she treated Evelina as if she were her own sister.

However, as time went by, Lemira realized that Evelina was subtly stealing away her brothers' affection. That was why her relationship with Evelina had soured.

Lucian raised his voice in frustration, "Lemira, listen to yourself! Do you think we're doing all this to harm you? We just want you and Eve to get along. You can't even do this simple request? How long are you going to hold this grudge?" "I'm not holding any grudge."

As she heard Lucian's words, all the questions that had been bottled up inside her seemed pointless. She had tried explaining herself hysterically in the past, but it never changed anything. She didn't want to be swayed by her brothers' opinions anymore. Silently, Lemira packed her textbooks into her backpack from the coffee table. Glancing at her packed bag, she uttered in a low voice, "If there's nothing else, I'll head to my room."

Lucian, sitting on the couch, looked visibly distressed, "Lemira, if you agree to join the team now, we can forget what you did in the past."

Hearing this, Lemira couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity. All the things she had done in her past life seemed like a joke now. Without another word, she headed upstairs, her steps more determined than ever. Lucian, feeling agitated, lit up a cigarette.
