When They Beg, I Rise!

Chapter 353

Lemira couldn't help but scoff when she heard the silence on the other end of the phone.

"Here I was, thinking if you'd take responsibility, I'd have to apologize. But you didn't give me the chance! Tsk."

The sarcasm was off the charts.

Asher, red with anger, retorted, "Lemira, why are you stirring up trouble between my siblings and me? What do you gain from this?"

"I'm doing you a favor, honestly. Or else, why don't you all just go to jail together? A real picture-perfect family moment."

"Oh, keep dreaming."

Lemira put on another show: "So, Mr. Asher, that's why I gave you three siblings a choice to decide who among you would take the fall. Isn't that looking out for you?"

"If Alaric goes to jail, his career is over. Have you no heart?"

"That's so selfish of you. Why don't you take the fall for your brother? Always talking about family being thicker than water. But when push comes to shove, it's your brother who has to bear the responsibility. How selfish." Lemira covered her mouth, trying to hide her laughter.

Orion, watching her, thought she resembled a cunning little fox.

Asher's temper flared. "Lemira, don't get too cocky. Even if Alaric takes the blame, without a lawyer, you'll lose the case. Just wait and see!"

"So, you called just to tell me that?"
