Looking at Sophia, Lemira could tell she was clearly probing to see if Lemira knew about the car accident.

It seemed the Sinclair family had started to sense something was off.

Still, Lemira had no plans to reveal her hand—not until Mrs. Amelia had returned.

She snorted coldly, purposefully. “What do you mean, I’ve had issues with your sister ever since the semester started? Deep down, you must know exactly what kind of person your sister is.”

“Ms. Langston, that’s not what I meant—”

“Oh? Then what did you mean? Your sister suspects I kidnapped your mother, and now you come here to ask if I have a problem with the Sinclairs?”

Lemira let out a mocking laugh. “Don’t be ridiculous. I’ve always had issues with your family, haven’t I? Anyone could see that coming—from a mile away.”

“Ms. Langston, my sister sometimes speaks without thinking, I apologize for that.”

“I’m glad you know. But still, you showed up here in such a hurry—that just means you still haven’t found your mother yet, right? Maybe your family’s long history of bad deeds is finally catching up to you. Guess that’s what karma looks like.”

As soon as Lemira finished, she saw Sophia’s face contort ever so slightly.

Sophia quickly composed herself, keeping on her mask of the composed socialite. “Ms. Langston, we’re just desperate right now. I’m sure you can understand how worried children feel at a time like this.”

“Oh, believe me, I understand all too well. These days, there’s nothing I hate more than the people who killed my parents. If I could, I’d tear them apart myself and make sure they never rest in peace!”

Lemira’s voice was icy cold.

Sophia’s smile grew stiff. She ventured, “Ms. Langston, I heard your parents died in a car accident years ago?”

“That’s right, but it wasn’t an accident.”

Lemira stepped forward, staring directly at Sophia, catching the flicker of avoidance in her expression.

So, Sophia knew something—otherwise, she wouldn’t look like that.

Sophia tested the waters, “Not an accident? You mean someone did it on purpose?”

So, Lemira knows after all?

But how much does she really know?

Sophia herself had only recently discovered that her mother had orchestrated Orion’s car crash back then—deliberately, to keep the truth from coming out, and to drag the Everhart family into the mess as cover.

With the Everhart family involved, there was no way the Sinclairs could possibly get in trouble.
