When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 399

Lemira gave Caspian a fleeting glance, her eyes brimming with sarcasm.

Seeing that look, a surge of anger sparked within Caspian.

He raised his hand, intent on striking her, but Lemira stood her ground, her gaze dark and unyielding.

Caspian held back, but eventually reached out to grab Lemira's arm, hoping to pull her in front of Susanna to apologize.

Lemira caught Caspian's approaching hand, twisted his arm with a swift motion.

Caspian's face turned pale with pain. He tried to resist, but the pain in his arm only intensified.

Susanna's face turned ashen, she quickly stepped in to intervene, "Lemira, what are you doing? Let go!"

"Lemmy, please, you're going to break Caspian's arm, aren't you?"

Evelina's voice was filled with urgency, yet a hint of triumph flickered in her eyes. After all, Caspian was a celebrity, and being treated like this by Lemira in public wouldn't bode well for her.

Now, both Lucian and Alaric seemed to side with Lemira.

She needed to prevent the other siblings from aligning with Lemira as well.

After releasing her grip, Lemira spoke calmly, "Mr. Caspian, you were the one who initiated this. I was merely defending myself."

Caspian felt humiliated, not expecting Lemira to have become so skilled.

Was this the same timid sister he remembered?

Evelina immediately stepped in front of Caspian, "Lemmy, that was too much. Caspian was only trying to help you."

"That kind of help I can do without," Lemira retorted.

Caspian, red with rage, declared, "Fine, Lemira, now I see your true colors. I came back intending to offer you opportunities. Since you so clearly disdain everything the Langston family stands for, don't blame me for redirecting everything to Eve."

In the past, this would have terrified Lemira.

But now, Caspian couldn't find a trace of fear on her face, which unsettled him.

Was Lemira truly indifferent to him diverting resources to Evelina?
