When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 710

Evelina nestled herself in Evander’s arms, sobbing softly and putting on a show of delicate vulnerability.

A nearby reporter snapped photos with wild enthusiasm. “These two are just too adorable together!”

Lemira glanced over. “You must really be desperate for a story. You’ll latch onto anything, but it’ll only get you in trouble.”

The reporter was about to fire back, but Evelina stepped in smoothly, soothing her and personally escorting the media out.

Watching this from the side, Lemira thought to herself: Evelina truly knew how to put on an act.

Evander puffed up with self-importance. “Lemira, did you see how much attention we’re getting today? Even Asher’s business partners are showing renewed interest in investing.”

Lemira replied coolly, “And what do you think will happen when those investors find out that your company’s products are all plagiarized and low-quality? Do you think they’ll still want to invest?”

Evander shot back coldly, “It’s just the investors’ money. If we use it, so what?”

As long as he could see Lemira utterly defeated, he figured any amount of money spent would be worth it.

At that moment, Evelina sauntered over. “Lemira, why are you here now? Did the Everhart family finally toss you aside, so now you’re crawling back to the Langstons?”

Evelina had been so frustrated last night, she hadn’t slept a wink.

Why should that woman Lemira have the right to know the heir to the Orvin fortune?

Lemira smirked. “Oh, I almost forgot to mention—it was Asher who begged me to come back and discuss a settlement.”

With that, Lemira turned and walked into the house, too uninterested to argue further outside.

Evelina and Evander’s expressions immediately soured.

Evelina fretted, “Evander, do you think Asher would really want to make peace with Lemira? I thought I had the upper hand—Mrs. Waverly already promised she’d help us deal with the Everharts. If that happens, Lemira will be completely on her own. There’s nothing to be afraid of.”

“You’re right. Most likely, Lemira just came back shamelessly. Asher never said anything of the sort. Once he’s home, we’ll expose her lies.”
