When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 287

Lemira's voice dripped with amusement, "How so?"

"Oh, come on, you know as well as I do that the Langstons don't hold a candle to the Sinclairs. Ms. Sophia Sinclair, Susanna's sister, is engaged to the Everhart heir!

Do you really think the Langstons can afford to cross the Sinclairs?"

Ah, so there was a powerhouse backing them up!

Lemira laughed scornfully in response, "I've never been one to back down. Bring it on!"

With that, she hung up the phone. As for the fate of the Langstons, it had nothing to do with her!

Glancing at the invitation on her phone, Lemira finally left her dorm.

Arriving at the team's base, she noticed the red carpet and registration table set up outside. It did look quite impressive.

"Lemira, what happened to you?"

Turning around, Lemira spotted an old acquaintance, Michel, the manager of the Reapers!

She flashed a smile, "Just a bit of a mishap."

"I heard you didn't make it through the Orvin Team's evaluation. Doesn't seem like you."

"I had an accident right before the evaluation, missed it, not that I didn't pass."

Michel's eyes lit up, "Well, good timing. You should consider joining us at Reapers. If you want to go national, I won't stand in your way."

"I'll think about it." Lemira was still undecided.

"I've got a friend over there; let me go say hi. I'll be back to convince you."

With a glass of wine in hand, Michel walked away.

Lemira made her way into the hall, only to be greeted by Clara's shrill voice, "Lemira, you've got some thick skin showing up here today!"
