When They Beg, I Rise!

Chapter 417

Lemira was seething with anger.

Her expression icy, she challenged, "You really want me to take on this role? Aren't you scared I'll mess up your precious play?"

"It's fine. After all, you're my sister, and I can put up with a less-than-stellar performance. But what I can't stand is your defiance, always at odds with me." Caspian dropped the script in front of Lemira: "Take a good look at your part. This time, Eve's the star, and you're playing the innocent victim."

"The innocent victim? That should be Evelina's role, not mine. She's the professional."

"Jealous, are we? Fine, call me bro, and I'll swap you into the lead role, making Eve your supporting act. That way, you can't accuse me of playing favorites."

Seeing Caspian's smug expression, Lemira retorted coldly, "If Asher finds out what you're doing, he'll accuse you of being ungrateful, especially after everything Evelina has done for the Langston family." "Asher's just obsessed with appearances. She's just a driver's daughter. How can she compare to you?"

"Don't you see the contradiction in your words?"

Lemira remembered how Caspian used to be quite fond of Evelina.

"Lemira, you've always thought I favored Evelina over you, right? But there's a reason for that. She saved my life."

Evelina saved Caspian's life?

She had no idea. Caspian was always getting into trouble, picking fights, and being cornered by thugs.
