Lemira glanced up, catching Asher's eye. "You used to say that the ties I picked out for you were the best. Every time you had a big contract meeting, you'd ask me to pick a new one for you to wear."

Asher shifted uncomfortably. "And what about it?"

Was Lemira playing the sentiment card? If she could just play nice, perhaps he could overlook her mistake this time.

But in a swift move, Lemira yanked the tie from his neck. "This one's from me, right?"

She tossed it into the trash can without looking back.

"What are you doing?" Asher's voice rose in anger.

Lemira slapped him, leaving Asher stunned.

"There, we're even now. I'm not going to fuss over you handing my belongings and my room over to Evelina."

Her voice was melancholy. "As for the tie, I'll buy you a new one. That one's old anyway."

Asher was speechless. Lemira continued, "Now that we've cleared the air about the past, let's head out. We wouldn't want people to think the Langstons are having a family feud."

Lemira took Asher's arm. "Let's go."
