When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 339

When Lemira heard Hogan's words, a flicker of doubt crossed her eyes.

Seriously ill?

But all she remembered was Lucian suffering from nothing more than a stomach ailment.

In her previous life, she'd never heard of Lucian battling any severe illness!

Yet, Lucian did look significantly thinner.

Lucian straightened up, pushing Hogan aside: "I'm fine, just the same old issue."

"But boss, you..."

"Hogan, you're talking too much."

Lucian cut off Hogan from saying more, turning to Lemira: "I'm not here to plead for leniency. They made mistakes, they should be punished."

Not here to plead?

Lucian took a document from Hogan: "This artificial intelligence project has a lot of potentials. I know you've been a key tech figure at Maple Group, but why not strike out on your own?"

"What do you mean?"

"This is my company, and now I'm giving you all my shares. Then you can develop the AI project independently, and when it goes public, all the success will be solely yours."

Lemira looked at the share transfer agreement.

She hadn't expected him to hand over the company to her!

Was Lucian regretting his actions after seeing Evelina's true colors in the surveillance video incident, seeking to make amends?

Lemira glanced at the document but didn't take it.

"No need, keep it for yourself."

"No, I'm doing this willingly. I was wrong not to see how much you've suffered over the years, being deceived and mistreated by Evelina, misunderstood and unfairly punished, favoring an outsider over you."

Lucian stuffed the document into her hands: "I've already signed it."

Lemira threw the document away: "But I don't want it!"

The papers scattered all over the floor.

Lucian, looking gaunt, said: "Lemmy, I haven't been a good brother, but I'll learn how to be one."

"Whoever you want to be a good brother to, it has nothing to do with me!"

"How can I make it up to you then? I want to treat you better!"
