Chapter 865
“I heard from Sera that you came back from the Javenaire Federation and bought phones for all your classmates. Couldn’t you buy one for your grandmother p>
It was Gwen’s voice.
“Aunt Gwen, your logic is as twisted as ever. You’re just as clueless as your daughter.
For the record, Grandma Eleanor’s phone is perfectly fine.
I spend millions of dollars on her health supplements. Do you really think I can’t afford a phone?
Are you out of your mind? Do you honestly not realize that I’m the one keeping her alive?
I was the one who blocked your numbers on her phone, got it?
I did it because I was worried that thoughtless people like you would harass her p>
With that, Mira hung up.
Owen glanced over. “Sebastian’s family is a disaster. They’re a perfect match for Lawrence. Birds of a feather flock together p>
It wasn’t long before the phone rang again. This time, it was Sebastian Quinn’s voice. “Mira, speak to your aunt with some respect. She’s still your elder p>
Gwen’s dramatic sobs echoed through the receiver.
“Give it to me p>
Owen snatched the phone from Mira’s hand. “Sebastian, Eleanor has a heart condition. Are you unaware of that?
Mira fought tooth and nail to save her life. As her son, did you conveniently forget?” “I know, but “
“There are no ‘buts p>
Since you know, stop bothering her with your chaotic drama. Can’t you let an old woman enjoy a few years of peace?
Sebastian, are you listening p>
“I’m listening p>
“As a son, could you maybe care a little more about her health? I think you know better than anyone exactly how your wife behaves.
Mira already told you last time not to harass her. Did you forget so quickly?
I know exactly why you were trying to call her.
Let me make this clear right now: the matters within the Lance family are settled. No one can change the outcome. You’re on your own p>
Owen ended the call.
“If I had to guess, they were calling her to play the victim, hoping she would
pressure you into giving up your hold on the Lance family.
It’s laughable. They actively force their daughter to marry a scumbag, and then expect everyone else to step aside for them p>
Mira scoffed.
“They only agreed to the
engagement with Lawrence because of the Lance family’s status in- Aethelgard and his power within the company. Now that he’s been ousted, of course they’re panicking.
But they shouldn’t be dragging an old woman into this p>
Owen said, not looking up from the documents he was reviewing.
The next day, when Mira visited the art club after classes, she was surprised to find
that Wesley Lane had saved a paycheck for her.
“Our Micro-Series made a profit. This is your cut p>
“Thanks, Wesley. Did all of this come from Solflare Vibe p>
Even though it was only a few hundred dollars, Mira accepted it with a genuine smile.
She could give this to Grandma Eleanor for her card games. The old woman would be thrilled.
Looking around at her beaming club members, she knew that for these art students, nothing felt better than earning their first real paycheck.
“Yeah, every penny,” Wesley beamed. “And guess what? Our account is officially verified p>
“Really p>
Verification meant the platform had authenticated their account, giving
them a massive
boost in credibility
and reach. Wesley and the team had clearly poured their hearts into this.
It also proved that Solflare Vibe was rapidly gaining mainstream popularity.
“We even bought out the old filming. equipment from Solflare
Entertaiment, Wesley said pne
“Everyone’s paycheck was
calculated after covering that cost p>
He smiled brightly.
“Boss Mercer p>
“Just treat me like a normal classmate p>
“Mira, we’re currently shooting our second Micro-Series. Do you have time to make
an appearance p>
