When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 82

It felt like he was just a stranger!

Lemira turned and walked in the opposite direction, where Orion stood waiting quietly with a black umbrella in hand.

She quickened her pace towards him, looking at him, "Was it you who asked the principal to deliver the stationery to me?"

Orion, seeing the smile on her face, guessed she wasn't too troubled by the whole mess. Hiding his irritation, he replied calmly, "Yeah."

"Thanks a lot, you've been a huge help!"

After saying this, Lemira patted her stomach, "I'm starving. Let's grab some lunch. I've got to prep for the exam this afternoon."

As Lemira got into the car, Lucian's frantic voice came from outside, "Lemmy, where are you going? I need to talk to you!"

He held onto the car door, looking at Lemira inside with a hint of panic.

Lemira, expressionless, replied, "no need."

"Lemmy, I really didn't mean to be late."

Her gaze was clear and direct, "I know. So, can you let go now?"

But Lucian didn't let go. Or rather, he didn't dare to.

He had a bad feeling, fearing that once he let go, Lemira would never come back.

Thaddeus couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward, grabbing Lucian by the collar, "Look, buddy, this isn't cool!"

"I'm her brother. Is this fun for you?" Lucian lost control a bit.

Thaddeus snorted, "Never seen a brother who screws things up like you. The stationery was from you, and it just happened to break. Then you solemnly promised her to wait, only to be late. What kind of malicious thoughts does your family harbor?"

Thaddeus had witnessed Lemira's miserable days firsthand and couldn't bear it any longer. It’s outrageous!

It was clear to anyone with eyes that the stationery couldn't have just broken on its own!

Lucian was stunned, "I didn't know."
