When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 228

No wonder he was the heir to the Everhart family, the top clan!

Lemira tiptoed, craning her neck to catch a glimpse of what the Everhart heir looked like. But the towering black-suited bodyguard blocked her view, allowing her only a peek at a tall man stepping out of the elevator.

He was dressed in a dark suit, sleeves rolled up to reveal clean, slender fingers. The man walked with a steady pace, his facial features blurred under the light.

Lemira suddenly jumped up, waving her hands and shouting, "Mr. Everhart, I'm with Maple Group, I..."

Before Lemira could finish, a bodyguard clamped a hand over her mouth and pushed her towards the staircase.

"Lady, if you cause any more trouble, don't say we didn't warn you."

After saying that, the bodyguard left.

Lemira sat on the staircase and sighed. Meeting that man wasn't going to be easy.

After much thought, she called Thaddeus, "Hmm, I've got something to tell you. It looks like Maple Group's investment is going to fall through."

"The investment's falling through? Why would you think that?"

Thaddeus was amused. How could that man possibly not invest in Maple Group? He was practically laying the opportunities at Lemira's feet.

Lemira recounted her encounter with Asher, "I even saw the Everhart heir."

"What? You saw him?"

"Yeah, but he’s not easy to meet. I only saw his back for a second before his bodyguard stopped me at the restaurant staircase."

Lemira sighed, "Thaddeus, do you have any way to meet that man and talk about the investment?"

After all, Thaddeus' family was quite wealthy; they should have a way. She didn't want to lose to Asher and the rest.

"That's easy, I'll make some calls."
