Chapter 79

When Lemira saw the message, she couldn't hide her surprise.

[Wait, you're his younger brother?]

Matthew struggled to his feet, his fingers trembling as he typed: [Yeah, I'm the adorable, obedient, and extremely talented little brother. Since when did he take on a protege? How come I didn't know about it?] Could it be that the Langston girl was really Orion's protege? Testing the waters, Matthew asked: [Are you Lemira?]

[It's me. He mentioned me?] Lemira was taken aback that Orion's brother knew of her!

Matthew was shocked to his core, dropping a string of "Holy cows!"

Shaking, he called Orion, who picked up immediately, his tone cool, "What's up?"

Orion was sitting in front of his computer in the study, pinching the bridge of his nose as he exited a program.
