But when Lemira looked at Mrs. Amanda's expression, it didn't seem like an act.
Mrs. Amelia, on the other hand, was clearly displeased. She looked at Mrs. Amanda and said, "If something had happened to Orion, I don't know where you'd find a shoulder to cry on. Weren't you the one who came running over in a panic when you heard the news? And you say you're not worried about your son?"
"Oh, please. My son knows what he's doing."
Although Mrs. Amanda had been worried about Orion, he was fine now. The injured one was Lemira.
Mrs. Amelia's mood soured. "I heard the matriarch is awake. Ms. Langston, why don't you come with us to see her?"
Mrs. Eileen would surely not approve of Lemira.
Mrs. Amanda stood up. "Lemira, you're injured. You should get some rest. We won't disturb you."
Lemira could only nod in agreement.
Mrs. Amelia shot a meaningful glance back at Lemira. "Since you're here and you know Mrs. Eileen is in the hospital, it's only proper for you, as a junior, to pay her a visit."
A cold glint flashed in Lemira's eyes, but she said nothing.
Mrs. Amelia huffed and turned away. She had to find a way to stop Orion and Lemira from being together.
Because of that car accident, there was no future for them.
Mrs. Eileen would never approve.
Lemira had better know her place and leave Orion on her own, before she was forced to take action.
After the two women left, Lemira lay in bed, lost in thought.
The thought of Mrs. Eileen being in the same hospital made her inexplicably anxious.
She closed her eyes and saw the man rushing through the smoke, his voice desperate and worried as he called her name over and over.
Lemira clutched her chest, feeling her heart pound so hard it felt like it would burst.
"Are you feeling unwell?"
A deep, pleasant voice sounded beside her.
Lemira's eyes flew open. Orion was standing by her bed, reaching out to touch her forehead with a very serious expression.
