When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 611

Lemira never in her wildest dreams imagined that the next time she saw Mrs. Amanda, it would be under these circumstances.

She'd expected a scene out of a movie, with a wealthy socialite slapping a check on the table, warning her not to get any ideas about marrying into wealth.

She never, ever expected this.

But in the end, Lemira didn't sign the papers. She left the box on the table.

She said earnestly, "You don't have to worry about me and Orion..."

"My dear, I want you to be my daughter, and it has nothing to do with Orion. I'm his stepmother, and there are many things I can't control. But I genuinely like you."

Mrs. Amanda naturally saw the guarded look in Lemira's eyes. She knew her actions could easily be misinterpreted as having an ulterior motive.

But she truly wanted to make it up to Lemira, and she'd grown quite fond of her.

Mrs. Amanda knew Lemira had a difficult time with the Langston family and wanted to offer her the protection of a real family.

"But Mrs. Amanda, didn't you prefer Ms. Sinclair as your daughter-in-law?"

Mrs. Amanda paused, then explained awkwardly, "That was my wishful thinking. It was always one-sided; Orion never agreed to it. Please don't misunderstand him on this point. You're the only girl he's ever cared for all these years."

On this, Mrs. Amanda couldn't lie to Lemira.

But that girl had to be Lemira.

Mrs. Amanda couldn't imagine what would happen when Lemira found out the truth about the car accident, but she knew the pain would be far greater than what she was feeling now.

Hearing Mrs. Amanda's explanation firsthand, Lemira's feelings became incredibly complicated.

Could everything Sophia had told her that day have been a lie?

Just then, the door to the private room was suddenly pushed open.

Orion walked in, his face grim, flanked by members of TG Group's PR team.

Lemira froze for a moment when she saw him. Since their breakup at the gym, they hadn't spoken or seen each other once.
