“Shouldn’t you discuss this with Lemira first?”
“Why would I need to discuss it?”
Alaric felt it wasn’t quite right but still didn’t voice his opinion; he sighed and said, “With Eve’s grades, it looks like she’ll only be able to attend a local college.”
“It’s actually perfect, they can look out for each other. Marrying into a local wealthy family wouldn’t be too bad.”
Asher thought that it wasn’t necessary for girls to be too ambitious; getting married early was also good.

When Lemira got back to her apartment, she said with some unease, “I think I should look for a new place to live.”
“You’re worried Asher will come looking for trouble?”
Orion now understood why she had previously mentioned moving out.
Lemira nodded, “Yeah, Asher is really stubborn and doesn’t listen to others’ opinion.”
At that moment, Thaddeus came over, “Lemon, you might as well just head to Orvin. Given your grades, getting into Orvin University shouldn’t be a problem. It might be better to get used to life there sooner rather than later.” In a place like Orvin, Asher wouldn’t be able to touch her!
Lemira thought this suggestion was great; she instinctively looked towards Orion, waiting for his advice.
Orion’s expression was calm, “That sounds like a solid plan.” Once she was at Orvin, she would be out of the Langstons’ reach.
Lemira smiled, pressing her lip, “Then it’s settled. I’m moving to Orvin!”
She suddenly thought of something and instinctively looked at Orion, “But then, we don’t know when we’ll see each other again.”
Orion avoided her gaze, “Kid, focusing on your studies is what you should be doing.”
Lemira felt a bit disheartened as she withdrew her gaze.
Thaddeus tried to lighten the mood, “All good things come to an end. hope, Lemon, that you can lead a wonderful life at Orvin, free from the shadow of the Langstons.
Lemira managed a smile, “You’re right.”
After all, Orion didn’t like her. She shouldn’t harbor any other feelings.
Lemira felt a bit down, “I’ll go plan for it now.” She almost ran away!
After Lemira left, the room went silent.
Thaddeus looked at Orion meaningfully, “Having second thoughts?”
“Her going to Orvin means she’s finally free from the Langston family. There’s no second thoughts, just happy for her!”
“That’s the way. Take this chance to say a proper goodbye to Lemon. The closer you two get now, the deeper the hurt will be for her later.” Orion suddenly felt irritable, “I don’t need you to remind me of this.”
Thaddeus watched his back, recalling how Orion had gathered people to rush to the hospital when he heard Lemira was there.
When had they ever seen Orion lose control like that before?

Lemira hardly slept that night.
Even though she was thrilled about going to Orvin and finally getting away from the Langston family, the thought of not being able to see Orion often after she left made her feet somewhat lost. FindNovel
The next morning, she was woken up by a call from her teacher.
“Lemira, why did you turn down the invitation from Orvin University’s admissions office? Your grades could easily get you into theintop programs!”
“What? I didn’t turn it down. I never even received a call from the admissions office.”
Startled, Lemira was instantly wide awake!
Orvin University was her dream! How could she possibly reject it!
