When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 323

Lemira locked eyes with Asher, a hint of a smile playing on her lips.

She said, “Let’s wait until the event is over. No rush, especially with all these eyes on us. A copycat can't turn the tables!”

“Watch your words, Lemira!”

He couldn’t believe she just called him a copycat!

Asher was fuming.

This wasn’t even his original plan; he had merely adapted Lemira’s idea on the fly.

Lemira just scoffed mockingly and returned to her seat among her colleagues.

The presentation continued, leaving the folks from Maple Group utterly astounded by Lemira’s performance.

The man who had doubted Lemira was now sheepishly hanging his head low.

The manager hesitantly spoke up, “Lemira, that Mr. Langston is your brother after all. Are you really planning to pursue this to the end?”

It turned out Lemira was the affluent Ms. Lemira, yet so hardworking and intelligent. She left no room for the average Joe!

Lemira replied coldly, “I’ve already cut ties. He and I have nothing to do with each other.”

The manager, trying to appeal to her familial ties, added, “But he’s still your brother.”

“Yeah, and he’s loaded. It’s a shame to cut ties, isn’t it?”

Everyone dreams of having a wealthy brother!

Lemira grew impatient, “I don’t need your advice. As the project’s lead engineer, it’s my duty to see this through. Our company’s work was plagiarized, and I will get to the bottom of it!”

Lemira’s tone was assertive, leaving the manager no choice but to drop the subject.

Then, Lemira’s phone buzzed.

She glanced at the message: [Lemira, this issue with Asher isn’t his fault. Could you please let it go? Consider it a favor to me.]

Tch!

A trace of scorn flashed in Lemira’s eyes. So, he was begging her?

He made it sound so pitiful, so reluctant.
