When They Beg, I Rise!

Chapter 348

Lemira raised an eyebrow, "Fair enough, how about I give you all one more night to decide who's going to take the fall?" Asher's face turned pale in an instant.

Lemira's smile broadened, "That includes you, Asher. If you're willing to take all the blame, I'm all ears."

Asher was speechless now.

Lemira pushed his hand away with force, "Clearly, you don't want to face the music either, so why play the saint?"

"Lemira, in your eyes, am I just playing the saint? I've been doing all this for our family!"

"Oh, so if you take the fall and end up behind bars, I'll just apologize, right? Wanna bet?" Lemira chuckled, giving Asher a deep, meaningful look.

She saw right through Asher's arrogance, his well-masked hypocrisy and selfishness.

She had laid it all out, yet he tried to guilt-trip her!

Well, she wasn't going to play nice anymore.

This time, Asher remained silent, his expression so sour it could curdle milk.

As Lemira turned and walked away with a swagger, Asher didn't follow.
