When They Beg, I Rise!

Chapter 576

That afternoon, Lemira received a call from Asher. "Evelina's been taken by the police for questioning. Were you really in such a rush to get her in trouble?" he asked.

"Yeah, I was," Lemira replied coolly. She had waited a long time for this day.

She continued, "Have you thought about what I said the other day?"

Asher didn't answer. He simply hung up.

Lemira glanced at her phone and couldn't help but chuckle.

After her classes, Lemira headed to the team's training center. She joined her teammates for practice and even shared their training sessions live online. Ever since that incident with being banned by the Waverlies, she hadn't stuck to a regular weekend streaming schedule. Now, her streams were mostly focused on team training, which was a great way to boost their reputation.

By evening, Lemira made her way back to the Langston family mansion right on time. Evander had been messaging the family group chat all day about sorting out the inheritance issue that night. It was a showdown she couldn't afford to miss.

As soon as she stepped out of her car and into the mansion, she was greeted by Alaric, who seemed to have been waiting for her.

"I figured," Lemira replied. "Asher's against splitting the assets, isn't he?"

"Exactly. Asher's company is about to go public, and he doesn't want any distractions. Plus, he doesn't agree with Evander marrying Evelina."
