When They Beg, I Rise!

Chapter 349

Lemira caught Orion's deep gaze and suddenly found herself breathless.

Her eyelashes fluttered, "We're just... just friends, you know?"

Wasn't that what he had always said?

They were just friends.

And he had always treated her more like a sister.

Orion, noticing her demeanor, licked his molar and stood up, "Let's go."

He led the way, his handsome features betraying no emotion.

Lemira trailed a step behind, maintaining a deliberate distance.

Thaddeus and Matthew lagged at the back. Matthew looked anxious, itching to step forward and say something, but Thaddeus held him back.

Thaddeus whispered, "Dude, can you not stir things up, please?"

Matthew was like an uncontrollable husky, impossible to hold back.

This was not the time to make things worse.

Matthew, driven by curiosity, couldn't help but ask, "They're really not together?"

After all these months, his brother still hadn't won the girl over? That's pretty lame!

"It's not happening between them."
