Chapter 71

As Lemira heard Evelina's voice, her brows furrowed slightly.

Evelina had dashed under her umbrella, holding her backpack over her head to shield herself from the rain, and flashed an innocent smile, "I lent my umbrella to a friend. Can we walk together?" "No," with that curt reply, Lemira turned and walked away, not giving Evelina a chance to respond.

Evelina stood there in disbelief, quickly getting soaked by the pouring rain. She couldn't believe that Lemira would reject her in front of everyone!

Evelina's expression darkened. She had hoped to mend fences with Lemira, especially after noticing the shift in Lucian and Alaric's attitudes.

Feeling threatened, she feared losing her place in the Langston family if Lemira was to be won over again. So, she had thought it best to try and get along with Lemira.

But seeing Lemira's unexpectedly cold rejection, Evelina thought, "Well, then don't blame me for not being nice."
