When They Beg, I Rise!

Chapter 317

Lemira couldn't believe she was gaining traction in the spotlight.

Orion's eyelid twitched as he grabbed Matthew by the arm, "Hey man, didn't you have a digital face-off with Alaric not too long ago? Tried to poach him for your team." "Oh yeah, I remember now. They had a spat online."

Lemira turned to Orion, "He called you 'bro' earlier, right? Are you guys related?"

"Yeah, we're...ow!"

Before Matthew could finish, he felt a sharp pinch on his back, making him wince in pain and glare at Orion, "What was that for?"

He had hoped to leave a good impression on his future sister-in-law.

"Why the pinch, man? What happened to manners?"

Lemira pointed at them, "Definitely relatives. You share a last name."

Then it hit Lemira. Matthew and Orion were related?

But Matthew was from the prestigious Everhart family!

Lemira looked at Orion seriously, "How come you never mentioned your connection to the Everharts?"

Orion explained nervously, "Well, we just share the last name."

"Exactly, distant relatives. This dude is my little bro; met through gaming, and got close to Orion too."

At that moment, Thaddeus ran over, throwing an arm around Matthew's shoulder, giving frantic hints.
