Lemira caught sight of Matthew's statement online, and it seemed clear that Ms. Sinclair was out of the picture. Susanna had been boasting non-stop about her sister's impending engagement to the power heir.
Now, it looked like Susanna was running out of bragging rights.
After hanging back for a while until the crowd thinned, Lemira and Janice finally stepped out of the classroom. They bumped into Susanna, who was furiously on the phone, "Tell those media vultures to zip it. My sister and the Everhart family are already discussing engagement plans. Matthew is just spouting nonsense." Susanna was on the verge of a meltdown.

As Lemira passed by, Susanna awkwardly ended her call, "Lemira, you must be secretly laughing attoo. But lettell you, Matthew is full of it. Soon, the Everharts will announce their engagement to my sister." Lemira replied nonchalantly, "Then, congratulations in advance." "Hmph, at least you know your place. After all, my sister is the most sought-after belle in Orvin, childhood sweethearts with the Everhart heir." Susanna couldn't hide her pride.

Could Evelina's father have ties to the Sinclair family? "Lemira, your phone's been buzzing non-stop." Snapped back to reality by Janice, Lemira saw Orion's call.
A smile crept across her face as she answered cheerfully, "Hey." "Finished with classes? I'll cpick you up." Lemira recalled Orion's promise to take her somewhere special after her discharge.
She couldn't help feeling excited.
"Sure, but I need to swing by the team's base first, to sort sthings out." "Alright, I'll cby later." After setting a twith Orion, Lemira noticed Janice's curious gaze, "Why look atlike that?" "Was that your boyfriend? You seem really happy." Lemira coughed slightly, "Something like that." Upon arriving at the base, Lemira announced, "Everyone's going to et spar withone-on-one. I want to see how much you've aved." swm But the atmosphere at the base felt unusually tense.
