Chapter 96
“What do you want from me p>
“Mira, you should come home. Apologize to Mom and Dad, and I’ll put in a good word for you. I’m sure they won’t hold it against you,” Julian said as soon as they met.
“Why do you want me to come back p>
“We were brother and sister. No matter how bad things got, we were once family. It doesn’t feel right for you to just leave like this p>
“How ironic. When I was at home, you were always the one yelling the loudest whenever I argued with Mara, always afraid my punishment would be too light. Now that I’m gone, you want me back. I’m starting to think you feel the Mercers didn’t abuse me enough and you want to keep bullying me p>
“Mira, how can you say that? We’re your family, don’t you get it? No one ever bullied you!” Julian retorted angrily.
Wesley chimed in, “Julian’s right. We’re all family. There’s no need to hold a grudge. Let’s not let this get out of hand p>
Mira shot a glare at Wesley. “It’s easy for you to say. This has nothing to do with you, so stay out of it p>
Then, she turned back to Julian, whose handsome, chiseled face was still flushed
with anger.
Mira couldn’t deny that there was still a sliver of a sibling bond between them. In her past life, he was the most devastated by her death and constantly caused trouble for Mara afterward.
But so what? His unconditional support for Mara, which made him her accomplice, made him unworthy of forgiveness. The moment Adrian decided to use the entire ransom to save Mara alone and he didn’t object, any shred of sibling affection between them had vanished.
“If that’s what you think, then I have nothing more to say to you. I’m telling you, I’m never going back, so stop wasting your time. The moment I left the Mercer family, all our family ties were severed p>
“Mira, are you really going to throw away all our years together just like that?” Wesley asked.
“What years together? As far as I know, we were never engaged. At most, we were friends, and maybe classmates. As for the engagement arranged by our grandparents, I’m no longer Miss Mercer That agreement became void the
moment I walked out of the Mercer household p>
Just as Mira stood up to leave, she received a call from Ethan.
“My dear Ethan, don’t waste your time on things like this in the future. The moment I
left the Mercer family, I was no longer one of them. Remember, I will never go back p>
Meanwhile, when Shane heard that two songs had overshadowed Mercer Vision Entertainment, he was gloating. He deliberately called Adrian.
“Haha, I heard your new songs got completely buried. I also heard you
had a celebration party yes Did you
Hahaha, how was the wine? Did your moment of glory even last
twenty-four hours? Adrian what
goes around, comes around doesn’t it? Hahaha p>
On the other end of the line, Adrian nearly smashed his phone. “Damn it p>
“Haha, this feels so good. Go, find out which company released those two songs. And help them out. We can’t let that old man Adrian make a comeback p>
Mr. Porter didn’t pay it much mind, giving the order and then forgetting about it.
In fact, his subordinate had mentioned the two songs Mira and Gavin sang together before, but Solfare Entertainment was so smat
at the time that Shane didn’t bother to remember its name.
And so, Mira’s Solflare Entertainment unknowingly gained a powerful ally.
One had to wonder how he would feel when he eventually found out that the owner
of the company, once it grew into a powerhouse, was Mira.
