When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 83

Lemira led the way, but Lucian was quick to catch up.

“Lemmy, I looked into it. It was Zack’s mistake. So, he’s here to apologize to you.”

After Lucian spoke, the butler approached, “Ms. Langston, it was a senior moment for me, missed the issue with one of the stationery items, all my fault. Please don’t blame Mr. Lucian Langston.”

Evelina also stepped forward at the moment, “Lemmy, Zack’s getting on in years, these mistakes happen. Let’s not hold grudges, yeah?”

Lemira stood her ground, her gaze distant and cold. Did they really think after they harmed others, a simple apology could make everything alright?

“It’s funny, getting old and all that, but how come he messed up Lemon’s stationery and not yours, huh?”

A car pulled up to the curb, and out stepped Thaddeus, fuming. Orion rolled down the window, his gaze deep as he looked at Lemira, “Get in!”

Without hesitation, Lemira turned and walked towards the car.

Lucian hurried forward, “Wait, Lemmy, everything’s been sorted. Can’t you come back home?”

Lemira shook off Lucian’s hand, “No!”

“Lemmy, what do I have to do to take the edge off your anger?”

With a callous expression, Orion got out of the car, pushing Lucian aside, “Maybe you need a mirror to see how selfish you look!”

“Me, selfish? I’m worried about her!”

“If you were really worried, you wouldn’t have forced her to accept your so-called apology before her exams were even over. The moment she doesn’t accept, you think she’s throwing a tantrum, being ungrateful.

Her feelings matter the most right now. But all you care about is clearing your name regarding the stationery, forcing her to accept the apology, never considering if it affects her. If that’s not selfish, then what is?”
