Chapter 261ย Lucian fixed his gaze on the supervisor, โIโm Lemiraโs brother, Lucian, her family!โย โWhat, youโre her brother? But Lemira claimed she was an orphan with no living parents,โ the supervisor was clearly taken aback by this sudden revelation.ย Lucian turned towards Lemira, a hint of helplessness in his tone, โLemmy, do you really despise being linked to the Langstons thatย much?โย Lemira spoke directly to the supervisor, โItโs true, my parents are no longer alive, and I have no other farmilyโย She was adamant about not acknowledging her connection to the Langston family!ย โI understand youโre upset with us, but this isnโt the time to throw a tantrum.โย ucian felt a bit headache, not expecting Lemiraโs firm stance.ย He faced the supervisor, โThis is my business card, and ID card. Lemira is indeed my sister. Sheโs been at odds with the family, which is why sheโs denying our relationship. But she does have family!โย As the supervisor inspected Lucianโs credentials, which confirmed their shared last name and address, his expression shifted uncomfortably, realizing Lemira indeed came from a wellโoff family background.ย Lemiraโs brother was a CEO. The rumors about her being kept must be false, then.ย The teacher chimed in, โSeems like Ms. Langston is just rebelling by running away from home,โย The supervisorโs expression was an interesting sight to see. He realized his earlier comments had backfired.ย He quickly stated, โWe were unaware of Lemiraโs family situation and may have misunderstood her actions. Still, locking her classmatesโ phones with that mini program added was her fault.โย โBut those students were spreading false rumors about my sister. If they have a problem with that, theyโre welcome to discuss it with my lawyer. I wonโt hesitate to take legal action against each of them!โย Lucianโs stance was unwavering. No one messed with his sister!ย The supervisor, now at a loss, turned to the principal, โHow should we proceed with this?โย Now that it was clear Lemira wasnโt a struggling orphan but a wealthy heiress, the situation was tricky.ย The principal then addressed Lucian, โBut Lemira has also clashed with students from the Business School. As a businessman yourself, Mr. Langston, you must understand the implications if their parents learn of this.โย No one wanted to cross the Business School studentsโ influential families.ย Lucian snorted, โThey started the rumors first. The Langstons wonโt back down.โย โWho told you to meddle in this? This is my business!โ Lemira gazed at Lucian, โJust go. I donโt need you to handle my business!โย โLemmy, you can be mad at me all you want after this is settled.โย โIโve cut ties with you Langstons. You have no right to intervene!โย Lemira resented any charity from the Langstons, refusing to be associated with them in any way.ย Lucian offered a weary smile before turning back to the principal, his demeanor dominant, โWe will pursue this matter to the end.โ Lemira only felt irritated. Looking at the supervisor, she said, โWerenโt you asking for an explanation about my relationship with that man and my financial situation? I have proof.โย She was a popular streamer and a key member of the Maple Group research team, financially independent.ย The supervisor coughed, โSince your brotherโs here, we donโt need any more proof.โย โHeโs not my brother! I can prove my situation myself!โย Despite her protests, the supervisor dismissed her claims as mere tantrums from a wealthy Ms. Langston. How utterly frustrating!ย At that moment, the principal received a phone call, answering with utmost respect, โYes, understood. I know how to handle thisย situation now.โย This was her wesen for being in the office Pure unstย by hair comย fre walked over to the compute, her fingers diaย code and then began to dissect her mini programย the keyboard as the operate foranyย After her explanation, the teacher let out a wry trule, โSo that was t Your clever trick in something most wouldnf fine of Le your family ever get you extra tutoring?โย The principal turned to Lucian, โMr. Langston, how did you raise this child? Our school has many top students, but weโve only co across someone as gifted as Lemira until now.โย Lucianโs face was a mix of emotions. He smiled bitterly, I believe she taught herself alt of thisโย The family had never provided any special training for Lemira. If anything, they held her back!ย Lemira stood up from the laptop. To her, this was all not difficult, for she had learned much of it in her past life.ย The teacher was pleased, โLemira, for someone as gifted as you, the school offers specialized training programs. Would you be interested?โย โSheโs not going!โ Lucian quickly refused on her behalf, and then told Lemira, gazing at her, โThis special course should be at the Business School, meant for the elite.โย But Lemira had conflicts with the Sinclair family. If she attended classes at the Business School, she might be bullied! โOf course, itโs up to Lemira herself.โย Lemira caimly declined, โindeed, I donโt feeling like going.โย The principal tried to persuade her, โIf youโre worried about your previous issues with the Business School, I can help sort them out.โ โReally, itโs fine. I appreciate your kindness. Even without soโcalled elite education, I can still outshine them!โ Lemiraโs tone was serene yet boid.ย She had hoped to enjoy a lowโkey college life. But circumstances demanded otherwise!ย After finishing her piece, she left the principalโs office, certain that the issue was solved.ย Lucian followed her, โSis, can we talk?โย โDonโt call me that. Iโm not your sister!โย Lemiraโs eyes dripped with impatience. She hurried down the stairs, only to run into Evelina at the landing.ย Evelina wore a smug look, โLemira, did the principal discipline you? Told you to apologize early, but you wouldnโt listen!โย โLemmy didnโt do anything wrong. Why should she apologize?โ Lucian defended, coming down after her.ย Evelinaโs face turned pale with shock. What was Lucian doing here?ย
