Chapter 527

Lemira's eyes turned icy the moment she heard those words. She couldn't stand anyone talking about Orion like that.

She glared at Lucian. "Let me make this clear one last time: Orion is the man I love."

"You're too young to even know what love is," Asher retorted, clearly frustrated that Lemira hadn't called it quits yet. "Now that you're in Orvin with the Langston family backing you, the man you marry will be someone from high society, not some broke school doctor!"

Lemira let out a derisive laugh. "Who I marry is none of your business."

"Of course it is! You're my sister, Lemira. If you tie the knot with a poor school doctor, what do you think that'll make me look like?"

Asher had already mapped out the futures of both his sisters. Since they were staying in Orvin, marrying into wealth was the plan. It would mean a good life for them and benefits for the Langston family.

Evelina chimed in timidly, "Lemmy, Asher's just thinking about your future. What's the point of marrying a pauper?"

Though truth be told, Evelina would love for Lemira to end up with someone penniless, she knew the more she pushed, the more defiant Lemira would become.

Lemira shot back, her words venomous, "What, like you with Dorian? Throwing yourself at him, only to be insulted and rejected by Mrs. Grace Draven?"

Evelina's face flushed with anger. "You're making that up! Dorian and I are just friends."
