When They Beg, I Rise!

Chapter 315

Orion glanced at Thaddeus' phone and sure enough, the message was from Lemira. A wave of irritation brushed over him. Despite trying to keep his cool, he couldn't help but check his own phone, where his last conversation with Lemira was when he had been discharged from the hospital. He sensed Lemira wanted to keep her distance, and seeing her become so much stronger, he decided to respect her wishes and hadn't contacted her since. It felt like the right thing to do, yet something inside him had shifted. Running a hand through his hair, Orion asked tiredly, "What do you think?"

"Of course I'm going, Lemon is my friend. What's the big deal about grabbing dinner?"

Orion tapped on the table, "Let's go to Bistrova, put it on my tab."

Thaddeus drew out his words, "Lemon's treating me to dinner, and you want to put it on your tab? Can't I pay for my own meal?"

"Just do as you're told!"

"So, you're not coming?"

Orion felt somewhat gloomy, "No, she invited you."

Standing up, Thaddeus put on his jacket and checked himself out in the mirror.

Orion, barely containing his impatience, exclaimed, "Are you going or what? Stop admiring yourself!"

Orion tried to focus on the documents in front of him, but couldn't absorb a single word.
