When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 148

Orion's voice was calm, "Didn't see that coming. You've got a knack for computing. Ever thought about majoring in computer science in college?"

"I've considered it, but haven't made up my mind yet."

Truth be told, Lemira was unsure about what major to choose for her future; she had a myriad of interests.

"Let's talk it over when we get back."

"Sure."

Walking beside him, Lemira glanced down at his shadow and felt a sudden uplift in her mood. They returned to the room together.

Seeing the smile on Lemira's face, Lucian felt a stir of irritation within him. She used to smile like that at him too, but now she wouldn't even get mad at him.

Lucian walked over to Orion with a glass of wine in hand, "Here's to you."

Orion took the glass with an indifferent expression, "Let's hope the game she's working on becomes a hit."

"Exactly, I’m thinking that too. After all, Lemmy has shares in the Langston Group. She'll be getting dividends in the future."

Upon hearing it, Lemira found it amusing. Technically, she did own shares.

But in her past life, those shares were used to apologize to Evelina. So, in this life, she'd never given those shares much thought; they were irrelevant to her anyway.

Thaddeus, sensing something off, quickly added, "Orion, too, is a rising star, investing in various companies. He'll be seeing dividends as well."

The Langstons dare to look down on Orion for being poor?

Lucian, sipping his wine, suddenly changed the subject, "Mr. Everhart is such a promising young man. Do you have a girlfriend?"

The topic change caught everyone off guard.
