When They Beg, I Rise!

Lemira flashed a deceptive smile and reached out her hand to Evelina, as if extending an olive branch. Evelina felt her blood boiling. She had spent nights memorizing her speech for tonight's dinner party, only to have it all come crashing down.

And now, Lemira had the audacity to invite her on stage? This was nothing short of a slap in the face. Asher, sensing the tension, quickly interjected, "Eve, why don't you both go up? After all, you're sisters, and you both contributed equally to the screenplay."

Reluctantly, Evelina reached out her hand, but Lemira withdrew hers, a smirk playing on her lips.

"Just kidding. You actually thought I was serious? Now that the star of the show is here, we don't need a stand-in for the speech."

Lemira's sneer was as cold as ice. "After all, a fake can never replace the real thing."

Turning on her heel, Lemira strutted past Evelina, deliberately bumping into her, nearly causing her to stumble. Evelina's cheeks flushed with anger - Lemira was insufferable!

Calmly taking her place on stage, Lemira looked up at Asher, whose expression was anything but pleased.

"My dear brother prepared such a big surprise for me. I'm truly touched!" she said, her voice dripping with sarcasm.
