Chapter 37

Lemira stood there, her face expressionless as she watched them.

Huh, did they really think she was still the same old Lemira? They never asked for her opinion, just brushed it off as if that was some grand favor to her.

She didn't care anymore.

Alaric, on the other hand, seemed guilty, unable to meet Lemira's eyes, waiting for Lucian to intervene.

Lucian, acting as the head of the family, continued, "Lemmy, after this competition, you've proven your strength. Your place in the team is irreplaceable." With that, Lemira should feel reassured. Evelina's face darkened. She was incredibly resentful.

Despite all her efforts, why was it so easy for Lemira to snatch her place? She might lack natural talent, but her efforts were no less than Lemira's.

Alaric looked at Lemira hopefully; though he didn't speak, he too wished for Lemira to join the team. They had extended an olive branch; surely, Lemira wouldn't stay mad.
