Chapter 236ย  Treated her like a sister?ย  Lemiraโ€™s heart turned bitter in an instant, and she spoke up, โ€œWell, Iโ€™m not exactly in need of a brother.โ€ย  Just then, Orionโ€™s phone rang. He glanced at the phone and answered, โ€œHello?โ€ย  โ€œMr. Everhart, thereโ€™s a bit of a situation at the corporation. When can you come down?โ€ย  โ€œRight away.โ€ย  Orion hung up the phone, โ€œAbout the house goods, Iโ€™ll have someone deliver them later. No need for you to go out and pick them.โ€ย  โ€œYouโ€™re not going now? Who was that on the phone? Something urgent?โ€ย  temira guessed blindly if it might be that girl.ย  Non hesitated for a moment, โ€œSomething came up. I gotta go.โ€ย  โ€œOkay.โ€ย  Watching Orion leave, Lemira felt like she was on an emotional roller coaster.ย  He rushed off after a call; it must have been that girlโ€™s call. Left alone, Lemira prepared some materials on artificial intelligence that might come in handy in the future.ย  Soon after, there was a knock on the door, โ€œMs. Langston, weโ€™re from the home goods company, ready to deliver your order. Is that convenient?โ€ย  Lemira was puzzled, โ€œI didnโ€™t order these.โ€ย  โ€œIt was Mr. Everhart who placed the order.โ€ย  Lemira hadnโ€™t expected Orion to actually arrange for the delivery of home goods; she thought he was just speaking off the cuff.ย  She tried to call Orion, but no one answered. She looked at the delivery personnel standing outside, โ€œBring them in then.โ€ย  She decided she would pay Orion back later.ย  Soon, the delivery personnel quickly arranged all the furniture and home goods. Lemira found the lightโ€“colored theme quite soothingย  After the workers left, Lemira sent Orion a photo of the living room, โ€œNice taste. How much did it cost? Iโ€™ll pay you back.โ€ย  She didnโ€™t want to accept these things from him. It felt oddly uncomfortable.ย  But Orion didnโ€™t reply to her message.ย  Feeling both conflicted and annoyed, Lemira eventually decided not to ask further. If he wasnโ€™t in a hurry, why should she be?ย  On the first day of school, Lemira dragged her suitcase, hailing a cab to Orvin University. As she got into the taxi, a black luxury car followed quietly behind.ย  Inside the luxury car, Thaddeus spoke lazily, โ€œIf youโ€™re so worried, why not just drop her off yourself? Why follow her secretly like this?โ€ย  โ€œNo need.โ€ย  Orion watched the taxi ahead. The last time at the restaurant, he was almost recognized.ย  Now that Lemira was starting a new life, he shouldnโ€™t reappear. The manโ€™s gaze carried a hint of reluctance, something even he hadnโ€™t noticed.ย  Lemira got out of the cab and walked into the campus, ready to start her new chapter.ย  She went to the registration desk, pulling out her offer of admission along with the necessary documents.ย  โ€œLemira, seems like you really treasure this school offer, getting so upset when it was previously opened. Itโ€™s just a school offer, whatโ€™s the big deal?โ€ย  Evelina, dressed in branded attire and carrying a designer bag, approached.ย  Seeing Evelina, Lemira scoffed, โ€œWhat are you doing here at Orvin University? With your canceled scores due to cheating, you couldnโ€™t reach the entry requirements even if you put efforts for it!โ€ย  Lemira brought up Evelinaโ€™s cheating scandal, making Evelina clench her teeth in anger, blaming the witch always brought up the most inconvenient topics.ย  Luckily, they were at Orvin, where no one knew them.ย  Evelina put on a smug look deliberately, โ€œThereโ€™s some good news for you: Iโ€™m now a student at Orvin University as well.โ€ย  1/1ย
