When They Beg, I Rise!

Chapter 571

Lemira couldn't believe the coincidence. Right there at the elevator, they bumped into each other.

It was true; dining at the same spot often led to unexpected encounters.

The atmosphere became tense, with everyone's expressions turning complex.

Sophia's face showed surprise; she hadn't expected to be caught so quickly.

If it were just her and Mrs. Amanda, it might have been okay since Mrs. Amanda knew who Lemira was. But Mrs. Waverly was a different story.

This was bad.

Mrs. Waverly was particularly stunned.

After all, she immediately noticed Lemira and Orion holding hands, suggesting their relationship was more than ordinary.

Adding to that, the Everhart and Sinclair families' proposed union had recently fallen through. Rumor had it that Orion had a girlfriend he was quite protective of, but no one knew who she was.

Mrs. Waverly had been curious, but she hadn't pried, not wanting to upset Orion.

Who would have guessed it was Ms. Langston!

Mrs. Waverly directly looked at Orion. No wonder Thaddeus had called her about foundation matters; it must have been Orion's idea.
