When They Beg, I Rise!

Lemira knew Caspian was desperate to partner up with her because he couldn't bear to lose everything he had built.

Caspian finally spoke, "What are your terms?"

"My terms are simple. Transfer all your company shares to me."

"Lemira, have you lost your mind?"

Caspian couldn't believe what he was hearing. "If I give you all my shares, then what's the point of all my efforts? It would all be for nothing."

"Didn't you say you'd do anything to make it up to me, as long as I don't sue?"

Lemira's gaze was full of mockery.

Caspian was momentarily speechless. "But I've worked so hard to get the company to where it is today."

"I know, but you can use Asher's shares. And you'll still be the star of the show. No matter how you look at it, you're in a win-win situation."
