When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 565

Lemira knew that with more clues, they'd eventually uncover the truth.

Debby continued, "This guy, in terms of family ties, is Evelina's second cousin once removed, and also Evelina's father's own cousin."

Second cousins?

"Did you find any clues about Evelina's father?"

"That's the strange part. We've been keeping an eye on this guy. He works as a mechanic at a car dealership, lives in the dorms, and rarely goes out. A lifelong bachelor like him has a pretty simple social life."

Lemira felt a twinge of disappointment. So, no trace of Evelina's father then.

Orion squeezed Lemira's hand. "Don't stress too much. Now that we've found someone, finding Evelina's father is just a matter of time."

"I know, I just feel a bit anxious and nervous."

Lemira started with a hunch, but unraveling the mystery led her closer to Evelina's father.

Calming herself, Lemira said, "If Evelina's father is just an ordinary guy, why would he dare to kill someone and install anti-hacking software on Evelina’s phone? That's not something a normal person would do."

It was peculiar, indeed.

Orion pondered, "If he's bold enough to kill, and he's done it more than once, then he’s definitely way more cautious than the average person."

"Yeah, how did someone like that end up as my parents' driver?"

The car accident seemed suspicious to Lemira.

The driver was definitely a problem.

Orion felt a surge of determination. "We'll get to the bottom of this, hang tight."

He was willing to go to any lengths to uncover the truth.

Lemira nodded. "It’s just a shame that Evander got involved with the foundation business this time. Otherwise, Evelina's backers might have shown themselves, giving us more clues."

But she wasn't going to give up.

Orion looked at her. "But about the driver, it’s been years. You’ll have to ask someone from the Langston family."

Lemira knew that the only person she could ask now was Lucian.

Asher’s fondness for Evelina might lead him to do something rash.

"Lemira, did you find out Asher's meeting with the Waverlies today, so you came here to cause trouble?"

Evander couldn't help but look disapprovingly at Lemira, bothered by her treatment of the girl he liked.

Lemira chuckled, realizing Asher indeed sought out the Waverlies for Evander's sake.

Clearly, Asher felt guilty about what happened with the amputation back then.

Evelina quickly interjected, "Lemmy, I know you're still upset with me, but you can't just ignore Asher and Evander's efforts. If you cause trouble and offend the Waverlies, it could affect the Langston family."

Evelina didn't want Lemira to stir up trouble.

This was Evander’s doing, and her father, aside from silencing people, wasn't much help with anything else.

Lemira sneered, "I'm not interested in your Langston family affairs."

She turned, taking Orion’s hand, and together they headed toward Bistrova’s entrance.

Seeing this, Evelina called out in frustration, "Lemmy, without Asher’s permission, you can't get in."
