When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 108

But she never imagined there would be a spending limit, not even enough to buy these few pieces of clothing.

Lemira looked at her with a smirk, "Can't afford it, huh?"

Jessica snatched back the dress that Lemira had lost earlier, "If you can’t afford it, stop trying to show off."

Evelina's eyes were red with anger, "Lemmy, didn't you say you wouldn't use a dime of your family's money?"

She couldn't believe Lemira could afford such expensive clothes.

Lemira pulled out her card and handed it to the manager, "Charge it, I'll try these on in a bit."

Judy, her sidekick, wasn't having it, yelling at the manager, "We saw it first, how can you sell it to her? We are premium members!"

The manager replied politely, "We usually go by who places the order first. Besides, Ms. Langston may not have a membership card, but she’s still the Langston heiress, a VIP in our store."

"She's been kicked out!"

The manager, unflinching, replied, "It's just a temporary squabble. After all, you can't sever blood ties."

Lemira was, after all, the only biological sister in the Langston family, that was a fact.

Evelina, infuriated to tears, decided to call Alaric.

She couldn't let Lemira see her in this state.

Hearing the manager talk about unbreakable blood ties made Lemira feel uncomfortable.

She didn't want to be bound by so-called blood relations!

She took the dress and headed to the fitting room.

Outside, Evelina was tearfully calling Alaric, but no one answered until his assistant picked up.

"Why isn't Alaric picking up?"

"The boss got smashed last night, not up yet."

Drunk?

Evelina was instantly annoyed. Why did he have to get drunk at a time like this?

What was she supposed to do now?
