Lemira stared at Caspian, her eyes full of scorn.
Her voice was icy, "You don't need to explain so much to me. After all, I regret saving you now. Almost got myself in deep trouble for it."
She regretted giving her all to the Langston brothers.
They weren't worth her efforts.
Caspian's face looked like he had been slapped, utterly disheveled.
It took him a moment to find his voice: "I was under the wrong impression that you left me behind on purpose, so I bullied you all these years, treated you poorly, all because of that dreadful woman Evelina..."
"Really? Just because of her? Did you ever trust me even a bit?"
Lemira's gaze was steady on Caspian. If there was any trust in her, they wouldn't have believed the words of an outsider like Evelina, right?
In the end, they all believed the divisive lies of a seemingly innocent troublemaker.
Such siblings were better off lost.
Caspian became anxious, "It's not like that. I know you're angry, but I'll make Evelina pay for what she did."
At that moment, Caspian was torn.
He had never been in such an awkward and humiliating situation in his life, his voice trembling.
Caspian lifted his hand and slapped Evelina, his tone ice-cold: "I warned you before about lying. You really thought you could fool me for so long!"
He wished he could kill Evelina.
Evelina's face swelled from the slap, and she quickly looked at Asher for help: "Asher, please, save me. I was just scared and got it wrong. But I did go back to save Caspian."
Evelina was terrified.
She didn't want to be beaten to death by Caspian, a man she considered a lunatic.
Asher quickly pulled Evelina to his side, scolding Caspian: "What are you doing? Eve was young then, it's normal for her to misspeak."
"Asher, you're defending her?"
