When They Beg, I Rise!

Chapter 440

The woman leading the pack handed over her business card to Lemira once again, "Name's Debby, save my number. Should you need anything, feel free to ring me up."

Lemira took the card, somewhat surprised by Orion's swift actions.

He actually managed to snag Caspian's PR crew for her.

She ventured, "But weren't you guys with Caspian before? How's he going to manage without you?"

"Ms. Langston, between you and me, I got assigned to Caspian's case because I was being sidelined at the firm. They thought they were dumping me with a tough case. But, truth be told, I'd rather be here."

Debby didn't hold back, "For now, you don't need to entertain any press. Best we wait for the police investigation to wrap up. Maybe take a few days off from school, rest up. By the time you're discharged, we should have a clearer picture." "That was my thinking exactly."

Lemira saved Debby's contact, "Don't you worry about compensation, I won't shortchange you."

Debby paused for a moment but didn't argue.

Clearly, Mr. Everhart was keen on keeping things under wraps, and they weren't about to blow his cover.

After Lemira had gotten her leave sorted with school, she messaged Janice not to worry. She'd check in on the team's progress once she was out.
