Chapter 397 Lemira caught the familiar tone in Caspians voice and almost found it laughable .
How could they still be so confident in controlling her life now ? Lemira lifted an eyebrow , And you are ? Its me , Caspian .
Have you forgotten how I used to teach you already ? Seeing Lemiras defiant demeanor , Caspian couldnt suppress the anger boiling inside him .
No wonder everythings been a mess at home lately , Lemira , look at the trouble youve caused .
The firewall at Asher Technologies had issues , Lucians company lost a bidding war and half of its worth , and Alaric was even detained for investigation .
All these troubles were linked to Lemira .
Lemira chuckled lightly , None of this is my concern .
You dare say its not your concern .
Did you or did you not mess with Asher Technologies firewall ? Ashers system crashed because of a hacker attack , and he begged me to fix it for him .
Caspians face stiffened .
Was that the case ? Evelina had told him something different .
Right after he landed and came to the party , he was looking to settle the score with Lemira .
Evelina quickly explained , Caspian , what I meant was Lemira initially hacked Ashers system to pressure him .
Now , shes so skilled that Asher himself asked for her help .
After hearing the explanation , Caspian looked at Lemira again , realizing he had never seen how capable she was before .
But the sight of Lemiras indifferent face irritated him all over again .
Asher worked his fingers to the bone to build his company .
As a member of the Langston family , you shouldve offered your help willingly , not have him begging you .
Evelina quickly added , I heard she even charged Asher $ 200,000 for her services .
Caspian grew even angrier , Lemira , youre so heartless , charging Asher such an exorbitant fee ? Lemira casually cleaned her ears , What else ? Im not a charity worker here to offer free services .
Lemira , its only been a few months since we last met , how could you change so drastically ? Fuming , Caspian grabbed Lemiras wrist , Come with me to the hospital to see Lucian and apologize .
Lemira effortlessly pushed Caspian away .
Caspian nearly stumbled , incredulous at Lemiras newfound strength .
Lemira wiped her hand in disgust , Dont touch me .
Caspian , Lucian is so ill in the hospital , nearly dying because of you , and you wont even visit ? Its not my fault he chose to harm himself , dont try to guilt trip me .
Deep down , Lemira knew Lucians self harm was a desperate attempt to make her yield .
For a moment , she almost believed it was her fault , almost softened .
Thankfully , Orion was by her side , helping her to see clearly .

Lucian always knew how to manipulate her .
Whenever she had issues with Evelina , Lucian would try to smooth things over , thinking he could downplay everything .
09:41 But it was always her who ended up hurt .
Inéluding the grievances she bore right before her exams , which , in Lucians eyes , could be easily brushed off with an apology .
Caspians eyes reddened with anger , Lemira , youre truly ungrateful .
Im asking you one last time , are you coming to the hospital or not ? No.
If you dont come , Ill never forgive you for as long as I live .
Ill cut you off .
Caspian glared at Lemira , remembering how she used to fear his anger , afraid of him ignoring her .
Lemira laughed , Well , thats a promise then .
Make sure you keep your word .
With that , she turned and walked away .
Caspian , seething , adjusted his tie , Lemira , youll regret this .
velina , seeing how mad Caspian was , tried to console him , Caspian , dont be mad .
Lemmys just being stubborn .
Shes been stubborn for too long now .
How much longer does everyone have to cater to her whims ? Caspian couldnt believe how much had changed during his absence .
