When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 377

Evelina was convinced that Lemira must be under the wing of Dorian's wealthy cousin.

Asher's expression was unreadable. "Are you sure?"

"Think about it, Asher. The signs were there ever since we were in Lyria. And now that Lemira has moved to Orvin, landing a job at this company and somehow becoming a shareholder out of the blue? Something's fishy."

Asher knew all too well that these kinds of maneuvers were common in their circles.

Starting a small business to gift to a lover was chump change for them.

But Asher hadn't expected Lemira to get involved with the Draven heir. She was playing in the big leagues now!

Seeing Asher buy into her story, Evelina couldn't hide her smugness. "Asher, we need to come up with a plan. If Lemira has that kind of support, we'll always be looked down upon!"

"She dares, and I'll make sure to have a word with that Draven boy myself, discuss Lemira's situation."

After all, he was Lemira's actual brother. It wouldn't sit right if he didn't at least try to intervene, not with his sister being kept by someone else.

He couldn't let Lemira continue making mistakes.

Stepping outside, Lemira finally allowed herself a moment of relief.

The manager couldn't help but vent, "Lemira, your brother Asher is out of line. How did he mock and suppress you before Mr. Alfred intervened? And now he's flipped the script, morally blackmailing you as if you were the one forcing them to steal our trade secrets!"

It was infuriating.

Lemira looked up at Mr. Alfred, "Thank you for everything, and for your hard work."

"It's no trouble, just part of the job."

Mr. Alfred, seeing Lemira's polite demeanor and recalling the Langstons' attitude, realized just how biased the Langstons were. But with the support of someone from the Everhart family, Lemira was untouchable, even by ten Langston families.

It must have been Lemira involved in that car accident with Orion, the one he had cleaned up and sworn to secrecy about.
