Chapter 130  Alaric couldn’t stand it anymore and spoke up: [Eve came to you to apologize, and this is how you react?]  “Is her apology supposed to be some kind of noble act? Do I have to forgive her?”  Lemira’s tone was sharp as a knife.  The fans in the livestream chat were quick to agree: [That’s right, that drama queen was stirring up trouble this afternoon, trying to smear Ms. Lemon, and then the truth came to light.]  [Drama queen, just leave. You’re not welcome here.]  [Jealous of Lemon’s fans and talent, so she keeps causing drama. Despicable!]  Evelina was so overwhelmed by the backlash that she fled.  eeing her follower count drop, she panicked. Who could have guessed Lemira had that video?  Tears streaming down her face, she ran to find Alaric: “Alaric, I really did my best.”  Alaric’s phone was still tuned into Lemira’s livestream, and he had seen everything that just happened.  He looked upset: “I know, it’s not your fault. Lucian, you saw it too. Lemira just doesn’t care about us, no point in trying to win her over. She’s got a big head now, even signing with PixelStage, totally ignoring us!”  Lucian, clutching his aching stomach, said, “Lemira has the talent, she has the right to choose who she signs with.”  “But she’s also a Langston. It’s like she’s turning her back on her own family. I can’t believe she’s oblivious to the rivalry between me and PixelStage.”  Alaric had been fuming on the inside. Yesterday was a total embarrassment.  Everyone knew he had pushed away his sister, who could deliver a knockout performance, in favor of a rival.  Everyone was laughing at him!  Evelina, trying to sound understanding, said, “Alaric, Lemira is just throwing a tantrum. She won’t really join another team.”  Lucian turned to her, “Eve, why did you say those things on the livestream, misleading everyone? Don’t you realize the consequences?”  Evelina’s eyes welled up with tears.  Alaric immediately defended her, “Lucian, Eve has apologized sincerely. What more do you want? You can’t start mistreating Eve just because of Lemira.”  Lucian was so upset he had a headache, “Why can’t you see the point?”  “I see clearly. Lemira is spoiled. I want to see how long she can keep this up. Eve, let’s go.”  Lucian was so frustrated he finally understood the injustice Lemira had faced before.  He donated a thousand dollars to Lemira’s livestream with a message: [The misunderstanding at yesterday’s party had nothing to do with her. As her brother, I will always support her choices.]  Lemira saw the screen filled with donation effects but felt nothing.  She lost the mood and ended the livestream early.  She didn’t want to see Lucian show off in her chat.  Leaving the study, she noticed Orion was nowhere to be seen; he seemed to be very busy these days.  Something felt off, but she couldn’t pinpoint what it was.  However, with exam results due soon, Lemira was a bit anxious.  She messaged Orion: [Have you been really busy lately? Can you come back when the exam results are out?]  Orion stared at her message for a long time without replying.  Thaddeus glanced at it and said, “Lemon, right? Have you been avoiding her these days? What happened, did she confess to you?”  Orion’s expression was unreadable as he looked away, gripping his phone tightly.  He swallowed hard, “She’s too young to understand what liking someone means.” The gap between them wasn’t just about age, but also an insurmountable barrier.  Lemira still hated the person responsible for her parents‘ death.  That drunken kiss had forced him into hiding until now.  Chapter 130  “Manquessed it. But it’s not without a solution. Next time you see her, just tell her you have a girlfriend, that should make back  off  Onion’s gaze was deep, “Maybe you’re right. It’s time for me to leave.”
