When They Beg, I Rise!

Chapter 469

Lemira's first clear glimpse of Caspian's face post-injury struck her hard.

The last time they had met outside the police station, his face was wrapped in bandages, concealing the extent of his injuries.

Now, there was no hiding the long, prominent scar stretching across his cheek, its red, raw flesh standing out grotesquely. For someone like Caspian, whose career thrived in the spotlight, this was a devastating blow. And given the depth of the wound, simple remedies were off the table.

The office was eerily silent.

Caspian, looking deflated, pulled out a velvet box and laid it on the desk, revealing a set of pink diamond jewelry - a necklace, a bracelet, and a ring.

With a hoarse voice, he said, "I know you gave the diamond ring I bought you to Evelina as an apology gift, so I bought you a new set to make up for it."

Lemira couldn't help but scoff at the sight.

"I don't need these anymore," she said coldly.

"Lemira, I know I was harsh on you back then, blaming you for leaving me. But now I realize I was duped by Evelina. If I had known the truth sooner, I wouldn't have treated you that way."

Lemira thought back to her tragic end in a past life.
