When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 120

She just doesn’t want to stay at VibeCast and keep being under the Langstons' control.

"Alright, alright, let's cool it down a bit," Lucian immediately tried to smooth things over as he turned to Alaric. "But man, what you did and said before really cut deep. You owe Lemmy an apology."

Alaric awkwardly started, "I can apologize, but she can’t join Reapers or sign with PixelStage!"

He knew Lemira was doing this just to get under his skin.

He was willing to apologize, but Lemira couldn't keep this up.

Lucian breathed a sigh of relief and approached Lemira, "Lemmy, I also think signing with another group isn't the right move. It's a messy industry, and I worry about you. Signing with Alaric's company is your best bet. Don’t you think?"

Lemira's gaze was clear and firm, "Who I sign with is my choice."

"But I'm worried, Lemmy. Alaric truly realizes his mistake, and he'll make sure the same thing doesn’t happen again. Let's not hold a grudge anymore, okay?"

"I've never been holding a grudge."

They were the ones who kept bothering her.

She turned and walked away, not wanting to waste any more words on them.

Alaric watched Lemira's retreating back, feeling a mix of frustration and reluctance, "Lucian, did you see her attitude? I'm even willing to apologize, what more does she want?"

"Alaric, you brought it upon yourself. You have to figure out how to apologize and get her forgiveness."

Alaric fell silent, unsure of what more he could do. It was Lemira who had played him first!

He wasn't holding onto those actions, so why couldn't Lemira forgive him?

When Alaric looked up, he saw Lemira mingling in the crowd, receiving warm greetings and even taking selfies with some.

Lemira, handling herself with such composure among the crowd, felt almost like a stranger.
