When They Beg, I Rise!

Chapter 347

Asher found himself cornered by Lemira with nowhere to retreat.

Guiltily, he pushed Lemira's hand away, "Cut the sarcasm, I had no idea about the plagiarism."

"Mr. Langston, trying to wash your hands of it?"

"I'm not trying to dodge the blame!"

Asher's eyes were bloodshot, a sign of his turmoil, as if stepping on a sore spot.

Evelina stepped forward to support Asher, "Lemira, ever since you threw Asher over your shoulder, he's been nursing a broken rib. Don't you think you're going a bit too far?" Oh, playing the good cop now?

Lemira coldly retorted, "Then why don't you just go to jail? That'll solve everything."

Evelina gasped for air, shocked at the suggestion. How could she possibly face jail time!

She just wanted to show off in front of Asher.

The next moment, Evelina looked up at Alaric, "Alaric, no need to be torn about this. I admit it's all my fault. I'll go to jail, it has nothing to do with you."

If someone had to take the fall, it seemed Alaric was the chosen one.

Asher immediately interjected, "No, you can't go."
