WantNovelChapter 535
Mrs. Amanda's words carried significant weight, and her intent was crystal clear. Asher's face turned ashen. The
Langston family couldn't afford to offend the Draven family, let alone the Everhart family. Everyone present
watched the scene unfold, too afraid to utter a word. After all, no one wanted to cross the Everhart family.
Evelina was on the verge of tears, choking out, "Asher, | had no idea this was Mrs. Amanda. Lemira could have
warned me, but she didn't say a thing." If only Lemira had given her a heads-up, she wouldn't have offended
Mrs. Amanda.
Asher turned to Lemira, demanding, "Why didn't you say anything?" This mess could have been avoided!
Lemira let out a sarcastic laugh, "And you're questioning me?" She had just realized that this sophisticated lady
was Mrs. Amanda, Matthew's mother. The Langston family hadn't changed at all.
Mrs. Amanda stepped in front of Lemira, addressing Asher icily, "Why are you yelling at her? She didn't even
know who | was, and she did nothing wrong!" Lemira looked at Mrs. Amanda standing protectively in front of her,
feeling a wave of gratitude.
Mrs. Amanda then turned to Lemira, her tone softening considerably, "Earlier, when | wasn't feeling well, it was
Lemira who helpedto the lounge. Meanwhile, your so-called adopted sister was busy obstructing her. Such
poor manners!"
Asher's face shifted through shades of embarrassment, unable to muster a response. Evelina dared not speak
either, mumbling, "I just wanted to quickly bring sfood to Mrs. Grace Draven."
"Don't draginto this. | never asked you to do any of that," Mrs. Grace Draven quickly interjected, addressing
Mrs. Amanda politely. "I was merely testing the Langstons' attitude. It seems the rumors are true-they favor the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtadopted sister over the biological one."
Asher hurried to clarify, "Mrs. Grace Draven, we don't—"
"The incident that was all over the internet, wasn't that your doing, Langstons?" Mrs. Grace Draven's voice
dripped with sarcasm. "Everyone saw how you defended a sister with no blood relation, who, I've heard, is just a
driver's daughter. You'd think she was royalty."
Asher's expression hardened, "My parents died in a car accident. Eve's father saved them but died in the
explosion. That's why we took her in."
Mrs. Amanda, hearing this, felt even more sympathy for Lemira. If this was their preferential treatment now, she
couldn't imagine what Lemira endured as a child.
Evelina put on a pitiful face and said
to Mrs. Amanda, "I've been an
orphan since childhood. Lemmy has always disliked me, thinking 16
everything from her, but | never wanted that." s
Mrs. Amanda slapped her without warning. Evelina was stunned, unable to process what just happened.
Mrs. Amanda glared, "Don't play the victim with me. I'm not buying it! If the Langston family wants to repay a
debt, there are plenty of ways ve never seen ‘abuse your own sister’ on that list." Were the Langstons out of
their minds? s
Evelina glanced at Asher, hoping for ssupport, but he stood silent, pretending not to notice her getting
slapped.
Mrs. Amanda turned to Lemira, "You've been through enough today. How do you want to handle this?"
Lemira was a bit surprised by Mrs.
