Chapter 171ย Lemira looked up to see the man standing in front to protect her, and her heart skipped a beat. Her emotions were like a roller coaster, full of ups and downs.ย She noticed Orion seemed calm, as if the commotion in the dance hall had never happened. But Lemira couldnโt find that calm.ย Evelina recognized Orionโs voice and said, surprised, โLemira, I canโt believe youโre actually with the school doctor.โย There was a hint of joy in Evelinaโs heart.ย After all, her boyfriend was a Draven. And Lemiraโs boyfriend? Just a humble school doctor, never to match her boyfriendโs status.ย Lemira, blushing, hurriedly said, โEvelina, stop talking nonsense. Weโre just friends.โย She had just faced rejection. Why did Evelina have to bring it up now?ย emira, no need to hide it. There have been rumors about you two, and then you ran away from home to live with him. Who would believe thereโs nothing between you?โย Dorian raised his voice, โLemira was living with another man?โย A hint of smile sparkled in Evelinaโs eyes, โYes, and you didnโt believe me when I told you earlier.โย Lemira narrowed her eyes, โDo you know why Jasonโs grandfather lived so long?โย Dorian asked, โWhy? What does that have to do with what we are talking about?โย โBecause he never meddled in othersโ affairs or gossiped like a busybody.โย With that, Lemira then turned to Orion, โLetโs go.โ She didnโt want to stay any longer with Evelina around.ย Orionโs sternly cold glance swept towards Dorian, a clear warning. Dorian felt insulted by that look and pointing at Orion, he snapped, โWhatโs with that look? Try it again, I dare you.โย Dorian, thriving since leaving Orvin, had never been disrespected like this. Orion ignored Dorianโs outburst, exuding an arrogant air. Dorian grabbed a bottle from the bartender and charged at Orion, โIโm going to teach you a lesson today!โย Lemira turned and saw Dorian coming. She pushed Orion aside, โWatch out.โย At the moment, time seemed to slow down as she closed her eyes tight and braced herself for the impact from the bottle.ย But the next second, she was pulled tightly against Orion, her head hitting his chest, feeling a bit pain.ย Orion kicked Dorian away fiercely. His face was grim, his eyes icy cold. If not for his quick reaction, Lemira would have been hurt. Dorian lay on the ground, grimacing in pain. Evelina, startled, rushed to him, โMr. Draven, are you alright? Youโre bleeding.โย Dorian was in too much pain to speak.ย Evelina looked up at Lemira, โDo you know who Mr. Draven is? When the Dravens seek accountability, you wonโt be able to clear your name.โย Lemira, holding her sore forehead, coldly retorted, โIt was Dorian who started it. We were just defending ourselves.โย โBut in the end, arenโt you unharmed? Now, Dorian is the one seriously injured. Weโll call the police and press charges.โย Evelina was nervous. If Dorian was seriously hurt, it could tarnish the Langstonsโ standing with the Dravens, jeopardizing her chances of marrying into the Draven family.ย Thaddeus, unable to bear it any longer, stepped forward and said, โDorian, are you looking for trouble?โย Chapter 172ย Chapter 172ย
