Chapter 368
Was he spying on Lemira again? Thatโs off-limits. Dorian clicked his tongue in annoyance, โCut it out.โ But when he looked up again, Lemira and her crew had vanished. Mustโve been his imagination.
Only then did Dorian coax Evelina: โWhat else would I be looking at? Who could be prettier than my treasure? Just curious what Lemiraโs boyfriend looks like, thatโs all.โ
โHeโs pretty handsome, but broke as a joke, taking her to some dive for their dates.โ
Evelina was in a good mood. โThen you better take me to Bistrova, I want to snap a few pics for Facebook.โ
Upon arriving at Bistrova, Dorian was surprised to find out there were no tables available. โI had a reservation, used my cousinโs card,โ Dorian argued.
โMr. Draven instructed not to let you use his card anymore.โ
Dorianโs pride took a hit, and he called Thaddeus, โCuz, why canโt I use your card anymore?โ
โI told you to stay out of the whole Lemira thing, did you listen? And then spreading rumors in the lawyer circles, who do you think you are?โ
Thaddeus gave Dorian a piece of his mind and hung up. Dorianโs expression turned sour.
Evelina approached, โDorian, whatโs wrong? Canโt we get in?โ She had been looking forward to this, especially after boasting in front of Lemira.
โItโs because of you; spreading rumors got back to my cousin. He warned me to stay out of it, or my momโs gonna have my head.โ
Evelina became cautious, โBut it was Susanna who started the rumors.โ
โMy cousin isnโt dumb, he mustโve heard something.โ
Evelina was curious, โWhy is your cousin so protective of Lemira?โ
โIโve been wondering too, if thereโs something going on between them. Remember when I got hurt in Lyria? My cousin came personally. Otherwise, I wouldโve made a big deal out of it!โ
Evelina paused, recalling the man who had visited Dorian in the hospital. โThat man in the hospital, your cousin?โ
โExactly, why else would I drop the case against Lemira!โ
Evelina went pale, โBut that man seemed close to the school doctor.โ
Who wouldโve thought a simple school doctor could be tight with an heir of the Draven family?
Dorian was puzzled, โProbably friends, Iโll ask my cousin. But for now, I canโt afford to mess with Lemira; my cousin wonโt let it slide.โ Evelina could only manage a forced smile; tears were out of the question.
If that man was Dorianโs cousin, had she already made a bad impression? Would he complain to Dorianโs mother? Evelinaโs heart sank, all thanks to Lemira! She couldโve made a good impression in front of the Dravens. What now?
Back in her dorm, Lemira saw a message from Orion: [Ran out of the plaster?] She checked; indeed she had. [Whereโd you buy it?] she responded. She couldnโt find the brand online. [e not available in stores.] [How much? 4โll send you the money.]

Orion squinted at her message, [Talking money? That how weโre doing this?] Leira teased, [What else is there to talk about?] His fingers swiftly typing, [Letโs talk about feelings.]
