When They Beg, I Rise!

Lemira stared into those handsome features before her, disbelief coloring her expression. She knew all too well how much Caspian reveled in playing roles-whether on the job or in real life. Caspian, with a smile playing on his lips, whispered, "Heard your team's looking for sponsors. I'm here to help. Just play along, will you?"

But Lemira was far from willing to comply.

Yet, as Caspian firmly grabbed her shoulder, feigning intimacy as they walked in together, she realized he had orchestrated everything, including the media ready to snap their photos. Under different circumstances, she wouldn't have played along.

But this was the team's home base. Causing a scene here would only bring negative attention to the team.

After all, Caspian was a celebrity, having adopted a stage name early in his career without ever revealing his family's identity.

What was he up to now?

Lemira couldn't quite figure it out.

To the cameras, Caspian said, "Everyone's curious about the bruise on my face, right? My sister gave it to me. We've been sparring recently, and she's improved a lot. I, her big brother, can't even beat her now." Outside, Caspian was the epitome of a caring older brother.

Sure enough, fans started commenting on how lucky she was to have such a wonderful brother.
