Chapter 571
Lemira couldn't believe the coincidence. Right there at the elevator, they bumped into each other.
It was true; dining at the sspot often led to unexpected encounters.
The atmosphere bectense, with everyone's expressions turning complex.
Sophia's face showed surprise; she hadn't expected to be caught so quickly.
If it were just her and Mrs. Amanda, it might have been okay since Mrs. Amanda knew who Lemira was. But Mrs.
Waverly was a different story.
This was bad.
Mrs. Waverly was particularly stunned.
After all, she immediately noticed Lemira and Orion holding hands, suggesting their relationship was more than
ordinary.
Adding to that, the Everhart and Sinclair families’ proposed union had recently fallen through. Rumor had it that
Orion had a girlfriend he was quite protective of, but no one knew who she was.
Mrs. Waverly had been curious, but she hadn't pried, not wanting to upset Orion.
Who would have guessed it was Ms. Langston!
Mrs. Waverly directly looked at Orion. No wonder Thaddeus had called her about foundation matters; it must
have been Orion's idea.
Unable to hold back, Mrs. Waverly started to say, "You..."
Mrs. Amanda quickly interrupted, "Weren't we just talking about heading to the spa? Are we running late? Let's
hurry."
Mrs. Amanda seemed flustered as she quickly moved towards the elevator.
Seeing Mrs. Amanda approach, Lemira pulled Orion out of the elevator to make
room.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOrion's expression was unreadable; he just looked at his stepmother, unsure of her intentions.
He had initially thought his stepmother would make things difficult for Lemira. But to his surprise, she was kind
to Lemira.
Orion had been planning to reveal his identity to Lemira, but his stepmother's silence was unexpected.
Mrs. Amanda, her mind a whirlwind of thoughts, avoided looking at Orion and Lemira.
Mrs. Waverly, puzzled, also kept silent.
Sophia felt chaotic inside and didn't want Lemira discovering Orion's identity now.
So, despite their complicated feelings, none of the three women spoke.
Once the elevator doors closed, sealing them off, Mrs. Amanda finally exhaled.
As they exited the elevator, she turned to Mrs. Waverly and said, "About what just happened, | hope you can
keep it confidential."
Mrs. Waverly glanced at Sophia before muttering, "That girl is no match for the grace of the Everhart family."
"I'm aware, but sthings aren't so simple to explain."
Mrs. Amanda then looked at Sophia,
her eyes apologetic. "I truly wished
for you to be my in W daughter-in-law, but as you know, no ne can sway! decisions. You're not getting any
younger, maybe it's tto meet other eligible bachelors."
Mrs. Amanda understood that Orion didn't have feelings for Sophia, and there was
no point in keeping her hopes up.
"Mrs. Amanda, did | do something wrong?"
Sophia was on edge; without Mrs. Amanda's support, her chances with Orion seemed even slimmer.

Being kind to Lemira yet opposing their relationship was contradictory.
There had to be something more, and Sophia was determined to find out what.
Upstairs, as Lemira stepped out of the elevator, she suddenly turned to Orion and asked, "Do you know Sophia?"
Orion felt a pang of anxiety. "Yes."
