When They Beg, I Rise!

The entire room turned their attention to the two under the spotlight.

Dorian, microphone in hand, made a heartfelt confession. Evelina, feigning shyness yet clearly basking in the attention and cheers from the crowd.

Lemira watched the scene unfold with a hint of mockery in her eyes. So, even without the scene of they humiliating her in the past life, Dorian still ended up confessing his feelings for Evelina. Now, Evelina had gained some fame as an influencer, with her girl-next-door looks making her quite popular.

When Orion caught sight of Dorian, his gaze sent a warning signal to Thaddeus, who gulped, "I had no idea he would show up here."

After Dorian's public confession to Lemira last time, Thaddeus had to call his uncle in the middle of the night, urging him to keep his son on a tighter leash to avoid any more scandalous confessions. Dorian had since vanished from Lemira's life, jetting off to Orvin, only to unexpectedly return and walk straight into their sight.

Lemira turned her head away, "It doesn't matter. With masks on, no one knows who's who. Let's just enjoy ourselves."

"Sweet Lemon, I just love your carefree spirit. Let's head to the lounge area; it might not be as lively as there when in a private room."
