When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 573

Lemira glanced at Evander, effortlessly prying his fingers apart.

Evander's hand trembled in pain, and he looked at it in surprise, clearly not expecting Lemira to have such strength.

Noticing Evelina nearby, Evander felt a wave of embarrassment wash over him.

Pointing at Lemira, he shouted, "Lemira, who do you think you are? If it weren't for you, my leg wouldn't be like this! How dare you disrespect me!"

Lemira chuckled, "I've always wondered, when you had your leg amputated, did they take your brain too?"

She remembered when Evander used to be quite normal before the accident.

Evander's face turned crimson with anger. "Lemira, my leg is like this because of you, and you still dare to mock me? I'll make sure Asher deals with you."

Orion, standing beside Lemira, chimed in, "Back then, your precious Asher wouldn't even answer his phone or take responsibility. Lemira was the one who stepped up and saved your life. And this is how you repay her?"

Evander wasn't listening; his life had spiraled downward since the amputation.

Otherwise, he would have already pursued Evelina.

Lemira took Orion's arm. "Let's go. No point wasting time on him."

"Lemira, stop right there! Who said you could leave?"

Evander was losing it, not expecting Lemira to show him so little respect.

In the past, Lemira had felt guilty and would comply with his every demand.

But now, she seemed like a completely different person.

As Lemira got into the car and drove away, she saw Evander tumble from his wheelchair, looking utterly pathetic.

Her gaze flickered for a moment, but she didn't get out.

In the past, she would have been concerned, but she remembered how Evander had pushed her into surgery to donate a kidney to Evelina in her previous life.

Orion noticed her silence and hit the gas, driving away.

Evelina, nearby, felt embarrassed by Evander's undignified sprawl on the ground. She wanted to leave but knew that with Asher's growing indifference, Evander was her only hope.

Reluctantly, Evelina helped Evander back into his chair.

Evander clung to her hand. "Eve, I promise you'll be okay. I'll protect my girlfriend."

"The guy who tried to stop us at Bistrova? He's throwing a tantrum in the group chat."

Lemira felt nothing as she read Evander's messages.

Orion frowned. "Are you heading back to school or home to your apartment?"

"The apartment, I think."

Lemira didn't feel like dealing with the Langston family tonight.

No need to let a mad dog chase her around.

With the supplier issue resolved and evidence of Evelina's kickbacks clear, Asher would have to agree to her terms if he wanted to protect Evelina.

By staying away from the Langston family tonight, she was giving Asher time to think.

Evander and Evelina would probably keep pestering him.

Soon, they arrived at the apartment parking garage.

Lemira turned to Orion, cleared her throat, and asked, "Do you want to come up for a bit?"
