Lucian felt like he was about to lose his footing. He clutched his chest, "Lemmy, what did you just say?"

"I said I'm severing ties with you. I hate how you always act like you know what's best for me, making decisions about my life without even asking." Lemira was truly furious. She had never spoken of cutting ties before, only of distancing herself.

"I should've said this sooner, to clear your confused heads. Always acting like a big brother, pretending to care for me. It's disgusting!"

Her gaze was icy. She hadn't wanted to leave the Langston family with such harsh words. But they had continuously crossed her boundaries.

Lucian was almost breathless, his voice trembling, "Lemmy, I never thought you'd hate me so much, hate the Langstons!"

"Well, now you know, right?"

Lucian looked up at her, "I'll just assume you're speaking in anger. That school doctor, if he were responsible, should own up to his actions and apologize at the hospital personally!" "You've gone too far!"

"So, you'll come with me to the hospital now?"
