When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 727

Here is the revised and polished translation, carefully aligned with your original Chinese text and adapted for American readers:

Lemira never expected that someone could be so shameless.

Completely off guard, she was pushed straight into Orion’s arms.

He instinctively reached out, wrapping his arm around her waist to shield her, making sure she didn’t get hurt.

But Lemira was furious. This kind of behavior treated women like playthings for men’s amusement!

“College girls really are something else, huh? Look how young she is—her cheeks could just about drip with youth,” the man sneered.

“Mr. Smith, you really shouldn’t joke like that. This is a university, not some nightclub,” Lemira retorted.

“Nightclubs aren’t exactly short on college girls, are they? But it’s rare to find one as outstanding as this young lady,” Mr. Waverly shot back.

Blushing, Lemira quickly stepped out of Orion’s arms and faced the middle-aged man who had pushed her and made the crude joke.

He grinned. “Oh, what’s this? Are you angry? There are plenty of girls who’d kill for a chance with Mr. Everhart—he’s so successful and handsome. Don’t be so ungrateful.”

Lemira gave a cold laugh, her expression growing frosty.

Orion watched quietly from the side, saying nothing. He knew Lemira could handle herself.

She fixed her gaze on the middle-aged man. “Mr. Waverly, you say there are plenty of college girls in nightclubs—would that include your own daughter?”

His face immediately darkened. “What did you just say? Do you have any idea how to behave?”

“I think I’m right, aren’t I? I heard your daughter loves going out to clubs, sometimes with several male escorts in one night. Not too long ago, she went a little too wild—one of the men ended up dead. And to keep her out of trouble, you shipped her overseas in the middle of the night.”

“You’re talking nonsense!” he snapped, his expression twisting. That scandal had been buried—how could she possibly know?

Lemira smiled faintly. “You know better than anyone whether I’m lying, Mr. Waverly.”
