When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 322

Asher instinctively glanced at Evelina and Alaric. Did they really not see this coming?

Lemira smirked, "Stop looking their way. If those two clowns had any clue, we wouldn't have had the spectacle just now."

Did she really think she'd carelessly leave her laptop behind, open to the very document?

She wasn't born yesterday!

But it seems two fools fell for it!

It was only then that Evelina realized she had been duped.

Lemira had intentionally left her laptop there for her to find!

By the time Evelina grasped the full extent of the deception, she slumped into her chair, panic-stricken. What now?

The tables turned swiftly.

With a mockingly sweet smile, Lemira said, "I believe our competition rules are clear. Any act of dishonest promotion, underhanded tactics, or unfair business practices would result in disqualification."

That's when Asher realized he'd been played by Lemira too.

Her act had been so convincing, all to trap him. Now, he was at a loss for words.

Asher came today, full of confidence, determined to outshine Lemira.

Evelina had stolen Lemira's concept, which indeed was brilliant, and he used it just to be safe.

He wanted to teach Lemira a lesson!

But being caught breaking the rules meant their company would lose its chance.

Asher refused to lose!

He could afford to drop this project, but he couldn't stand losing to Lemira.

Asher turned to the director, "There's more to this story, I can explain."

"Mr. Langston, please take your seat. We have more presentations to get through. We'll discuss this matter after the event."

Reluctantly, Asher stepped down.

Lemira, laptop in hand, brushed past him.

"Winners take all, thanks for the demo!" she whispered breezily.

Asher paused, his expression darkening.
