When They Beg, I Rise!

Chapter 373

Not just Asher was shell-shocked, Lemira was taken aback too.

She had heard of Mr. Alfred before, a big shot, quite the legend.

Even the Langston family's defense attorney got so excited that he stood up: "Mr. Alfred, I had no idea we'd be up against someone of your caliber, my apologies." "No worries, we're all just doing our jobs here. Please, have a seat."

Mr. Alfred was all smiles, making his way over to Lemira: "Ms. Langston, I've looked over the files on my way here. What's your desired outcome for this case?" The outcome of the lawsuit, huh?

Lemira hadn't expected the lawyer she got to be such a big deal.

Well, this lawsuit was in the bag, then.

Asher couldn't help but speak up: "Lemira, think it through before you decide. Remember what I told you. Lucian's willing to hand over the company to you. Isn't that worth more than any salary the Maple Group could offer?" Lemira shot back: "That's not what you said earlier."

Talk about a quick change of heart.

Asher glanced at Mr. Alfred, wishing things were different. But with this guy on the case, they stood no chance of winning.

Mr. Alfred usually only worked for the Everhart family, not bothering with minor cases.

And to think he showed up for a case not even related to the Everharts? Did Lemira pull some strings?

Impossible!

Lemira saw a flash of panic cross Asher's face and told Mr. Alfred, "I want to win, to make those who erred pay the price."
