When They Beg, I Rise!
Chapter 314

Lucian felt a knot in his stomach listening to Lemira's sharp retort, lost for words.

Evelina seized the moment, "Lemira, Lucian meant well, why embarrass him in front of everyone? You have no idea how lucky I think you are."

A senior student by Lemira's side sneered, "Evelina, you're just a driver's daughter and yet here you are, attending a prestigious business school. Whose spot did you take, huh?" "Yeah, for a driver's daughter to get here, shows how biased things are."

"No wonder Goddess Lemon cut ties with her family. If I were in her shoes, I'd do the same!"

Evelina was left speechless and looked towards Lucian for support, "Lucian, I didn't mean to. I was just trying to calm Lemira down!"

"I don't need your so-called help, zip it!"

This time, Lucian didn't fall for Evelina's trick, "If Lemira doesn't respect me, that's on me, no one else's fault."

Evelina was dumbfounded by Lucian's reaction.

Weird, her words used to work on him before.

Did Lucian genuinely not hold any grudges against Lemira for her blatant disrespect?

As Lucian walked away, Evelina followed, her heart racing.

Leaving Susanna standing alone on stage.

Lemira gave Susanna a look that had her running for the hills, afraid of becoming Lemira's next target.

The senior by Lemira said, "Despite the drama, let's proceed with the voting."

Lemira won the captaincy by a landslide, surrounded by celebrations, her popularity undeniable.

But soon, the Sinclair family's representatives came looking for her.

In the captain's office, Lemira saw a bespectacled lawyer and Susanna waiting.

Susanna smugly said, "Lemira, meet my lawyer. You're done for now, it's your turn to go to jail."

The lawyer adjusted his glasses, "Ms. Langston, we finally meet. We've spoken on the phone before." "Oh, you."

Lemira pulled out her phone, "These are the

the restroom. Susanna didn't tell

as winestro cos from the last e

you, did she?"

Susanna looked guilty; she had indeed kept it a secret, fearing reproach.

Her mother had instructed her to keep a low profile and avoid further scandals.

After viewing the videos, the lawyer's expression changed. He stepped outside to call Mrs. Amelia.

Susanna received a scolding from her mother like never before.

The lawyer faced Lemira, "How do you propose we resolve it?"

"Simple. Susanna apologizes, and I delete the videos."

"Never! I'd rather die than apologize to you!"

Susanna stormed out, leaving Lemira and the lawyer alone.

Lemira, with a half-smile, told the

lawyer, You have a day to thinknet

over I'm pretty reasonable."

"Ms. Langston, I'll have to report back, but if you insist on opposing the Sinclair family, we'll withdraw our team's funding. Consider your options carefully."

After the lawyer left, Lemira knew this was a problem she needed to solve.

The only company she knew that could sponsor them was Maple Group.

After some thought, Lemira texted Thaddeus: [Mr. Draven, fancy grabbing dinner sometime?]

Thaddeus was taken aback by the message..

He looked up at Orion, "Have you been in touch with Lemon lately?"

Orion, previously engrossed in his documents, looked solemn, "No." "But she just asked me to dinner!"
