When They Beg, I Rise!

Chapter 446

In front of outsiders, Caspian's act was convincingly real.

Lemira's expression was cool as she said, "Quit the act, Caspian. This isn't a movie set. No one here is buying your performance." Orion's voice dripped with sarcasm. "Caspian, is this what you call 'rehearsing a scene'? Beating Lemira up like this?"

Caspian felt a twinge of guilt, "It was an accident. Lemira said she could take it."

Evelina stepped forward, "But it's Caspian who ended up getting hurt the worst. How can you go live and twist the story, Lemira?"

Orion looked at Evelina, his tone harsh, "Caspian got injured while running away at the sound of the police sirens. If he wasn't guilty, why run?"

Evelina struggled for words, "Because Caspian is a public figure. Scandals like this could ruin his reputation."

Lemira spoke coldly, "Was it you who stirred things up, Evelina? Telling Caspian I was gathering dirt on him, is that why he lashed out?"

Evelina immediately looked down, a picture of innocence, "I would never do such a thing."

Caspian gave Evelina a meaningful look. Lemira was right; it was Evelina who had deliberately played him the recording, making him aware of Lemira's supposed betrayal. That had provoked him into acting rashly.
