Chapter 297 Lemira turned back to look at Clara, "But I don't accept guilt-tripping!" What did she mean, 'I've apologized, what more do you want?' She'd grown up hearing this kind of talk in the Langston family all her life! "Lemira, how is this guilt-tripping? I've already apologized. I just asked for a tiny favor, and here you are, acting all high and mighty. Who are you trying to impress?" Clara, an only child raised in the city, had always been pampered and rarely had to plead for anything. She had already lowered her pride enough, what more did Lemira want? "For you to see," replied Lemira calmly. What was she going to do? Clara instantly burst into tears, turning to Janice to vent, "This is all your fault, Janice, givingsuch a terrible idea to apologize to Lemira!" Fuming, Clara sat down and started scrolling through her phone, only to cacross a Facebook post showing Jackson confessing his feelings for Lemira with flowers in hand. Upon seeing this, Clara exploded, "So that's why you won't help, Lemira! You've been hooking up with Jackson behind my back, haven't you?" Janice, confused, chimed in, "Clara, what are you talking about?" There was no way Lemira was with Jackson! "I'm not making this up. Look at Facebook. Jackson just confessed to Lemira outside the dorm." Clara, who had lowered herself for unworthy guys without receiving any grand gestures like Jackson's confession, boiled with rage. Why did Lemira deserve this? The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, her tone venomous, "So that's why Lemira deliberately wouldn't help. She's nothing but a tramp, with no parents to teach her manners!" Lemira, in response, slapped Clara.
Clara screamed, "How dare you hit me!" "You can insult me, you can insult those living family of mine, but you will not insult my deceased parents!" "Lemira, you dare say there's nothing between you and Jackson?" Lemira sneered, "Jackson, that trash? I wouldn't even glance his way, only feel disgusted. Only you would stoop so low as to sleep with someone like him. Did you really think everyone is as blind as you?" "Lemira, I'm going to kill you! You small-town hick, who do you think you are, acting so arrogant?" Clara was on the verge of madness. Why wouldn't Lemira help her? How could she so easily get everything she wanted! Lemira pushed Clara away, "If you're asking for a favor, act like it. Enough with the guilt-tripping." "I did ask you!" "Just because you asked, should I oblige? Ridiculous!" Especially when Clara's way of et [are] wels asking was so condescending, as if Lemira was.obligated to help. She had been subjected to this kind of hijacking of morality by the Langstons all her life, and now s despised it more than anything! she Lemira changed into her workout gear and left the dorm to head to the gym for sboxing practice.
As Clara watched Lemira's departing figure, her eyes reddened with hatred, "If you're going to be ruthless, Lemira, don't blme for what comes next." Wiping away her tears, Clara immediately called Jackson.
[Jackson, I can help you win over Lemira, but you'll need to delete all the videos and photos offrom your phone!] Jackson, dejected after being turned
away from the dorm, harbored deep resentment towards Lemira. As the ros pondered his next move, Clara's offer seemed like a golden opportunity. "Deal!"
Seeing Jackson's reply, Clara glared at Lemira's bed with vengeance, "Since you laughed atfor being used by that jerk, I'll let you experience how I felt!" She was determined to destroy Lemira. To ensure Lemira could never hold her head high again. Janice overheard this from aside, "Clara, this isn't right." "Shut up, Janice. Lemira forced my hand. Didn't you see how she lorded over us? I will ruin her!"
A cold smile spread across Clara's face, as if she could already envision Lemira's downfall. But Janice was left deep in thought, worried that Clara's actions would only drag her further down. Meanwhile, Lemira continued her training at the gym, unleashing her frustration on the punching bag.
