Chapter 223

Lemmy felt Orion was genuinely kind to her, different from anyone else.

She once mistook his kindness as a sign he had feelings for her. Why else would he be so nice? But, in the end, it was just wishful thinking on her part. Orion seemed choked up for a moment before he finally said, "It's not out of the question."

Lemira's heart skipped a beat. What did he mean by that?

Orion continued, "Since you've cut ties with your brothers, you can consider me family from now on."

"I'm not in need of a brother."

Lemira stood up, "I'm full. I'm going to pack."

She left, feeling a bit downhearted.

Orion watched her leave, his gaze complex. Thaddeus walked in, "Done talking? Ready to let go this time?"

Orion remained silent, downing his glass of wine in one gulp, his eyes dark and brooding.

Lemira's feelings were easy to read. But he felt he wasn't worthy, nor did he have the right.
