[Sweetheart Evie, you’re so sensible, unlike that witch. I’ll take care of her for you.]
After reading the message, Lemira responded with a calm voice, “You know Evelina. She’s always been fond of playing these games.”
“It’s so frustrating. I told all my close friends about what happened, and I can’t believe Evelina has the nerve to twist the story. I’ve asked my brother to get the hotel’s surveillance footage. We have to make Evelina eat her words!” Lemira glanced at her computer screen. “Once we get the footage, I’ll post it.”
She didn’t want to involve Jessica.
If Evelina was planning to pull the same stunt again, she had no one but herself to blame for the consequences.
But Lemira had a feeling Evelina wouldn’t be so foolish as to openly challenge her on the internet, knowing there was evidence against her.
Soon after, Jessica told her in panic, “It’s bad news. My brother just texted me saying the surveillance has been deleted.”
“It seems Evelina came prepared.”
Lemira had a hunch something was off, and now it was confirmed.
“What do we do now? We all know what happened at the party, and now Evelina is slandering you online. Maybe you should let Lucian clear things up. His word would carry weight.”
Lemira’s face twisted into a mocking smile. “My Lucian won’t do that.”
After all, that would put Evelina at a disadvantage.
Her biased Lucian wouldn’t take that step.
“So we just sit and let Evelina throw mud at you?”
Lemira’s eyes flashed coldly. “No.”
She logged off the game, pulled out a USB drive, and her fingers danced over the keyboard.
She hacked into the hotel’s surveillance system to retrieve the deleted footage.
Hotels typically kept hidden backups of deleted surveillance, but uncovering them took some time.
While restoring the footage, she sent the video to Lucian: [Is Evelina out of her mind?]
Lucian called immediately: “I just found out about this. Eve meant no harm; she just wanted to reconcile with you.”
“Reconcile? Misleading everyone?
Lucian, are you stupid? You always talk about family, but if this is how family stabs each other in the back, I want no part of it!”
Lemira hung up the phone.
She thought she could leave the Langston family behind and live her own life.
But since they kept haunting her, she wouldn’t hold back anymore.
Lucian sighed, holding his aching stomach as he went downstairs.
He had drunk quite a bit the previous night, and now his stomach was acting up.
“Get Eve to come see me,” Lucian told Zack.
Soon, Evelina rushed down, “Lucian, what did you need?”
“The things you said in your livestream could mislead others. Don’t say them anymore.”
Evelina was reluctant. “Lucian, I was just anxious for Lemmy to come back. I meant no harm.”
Lucian, impatient from his stomach pain, said, “Just do as I said.”
Evelina nodded, “I understand, Lucian. I haven’t finished my livestream; I’ll go back to my room.” Lucian, pale and clutching his stomach, nodded.
Evelina noticed Lucian’s discomfort but
To didn’t dwell on it, returning to her

Watching Evelina leave, Lucian felt a chill.

Without Lemira’s cooking, he found himself missing it terribly.
Since Lemira left, the house felt colder, food didn’t taste the same, and his stomach pains worsened.
Lucian covered his face with his hand, overwhelmed with regret.
It wasn’t Lemira who couldn’t leave the Langston family.
It was the Langston family who couldn’t live without Lemira!
