Lemira couldn't help but feel a surge of satisfaction seeing Evelina's dismayed expression.

It was clear as day that Evelina was anything but thrilled about her coming back to the Langston family, especially with Lucian, Caspian, and Alaric rallying by her side.

This was precisely the reaction Lemira had hoped for.

When Evelina posed her question, Asher's discomfort was unmistakable.

Lucian jumped in before Asher could respond, "Asher, haven't you always wanted us to be a close-knit family? Sure, we've had our disagreements, but now Lemmy's willing to bury the hatchet. Alaric and Caspian are cool with it, so let's all just move past this."

Evelina, feeling cornered, argued, "Lucian, but Lemmy's sudden willingness to make amends, who knows what she's up to."

No way was Evelina going to let Lemira waltz back into the Langston family and usurp her spot.

Lucian scoffed, "Lemira is our sister, Ms. Langston. It's only natural for her to want to reconcile. After all, the Langston family is her true home."

Caspian, unable to contain his anger, pointed directly at Evelina and lashed out, "What right do you, a mere chauffeur's daughter, have to question her? You think you can just replace Lemmy and become Ms. Langston? Dream on."

He could clearly see through Evelina's ulterior motives.
