Chapter 434

Lemira's expression froze for a moment as she stared blankly at him.

Her gaze fluttered slightly before she looked down and whispered, "I'm fine, aren't I?"

"What if you weren't? Didn't I tell you to call me for anything? I can take care of anything for you!" Orion's voice grew louder with frustration.

The memory of hearing Lemira's desperate cries for help during a livestream haunted him. In that moment, he had felt a murderous rage.
