"I've recorded your entire act of sexual harassment on my phone. So, what do you think I'm doing? How about I send you to jail, huh?"
Lemira pulled Oanice to her feet. "Since we can't share a meal with you people, we'll just get another room."
"Lemira, where do you think you are? Do you think you can just book a private room here whenever you want?"
Just then, Sophia and Susanna walked in.
With their arrival, the middle-aged men in the room became much more restrained.
Sophia picked up a wine glass. "Ms. Langston, why so angry? A little drinking is expected when you're networking."
Lemira immediately filled Sophia's glass to the brim. "In that case, Ms. Sinclair, why don't you finish this before you speak?"
Susanna retorted angrily, "Lemira, who do you think you are to tell my sister to drink? If it weren't for her generosity, none of you would even be allowed to dine at Bistrova."
Lemira ignored Susanna and looked straight at Sophia. "Those men are employees of your Sinclair Group, aren't they? One of them sexually harassed my classmate. If this gets out, the Sinclair family's reputation will take another nosedive."
At her words, the middle-aged man who had been harassing Oanice became flustered. "Don't you dare make false accusations! I didn't lay a hand on her."
"But I have proof on video."
Lemira waved her phone and looked at Sophia. "Do you like my gift?"
Sophia's smile was strained. She turned to the man and slapped him across the face. "Apologize."
Susanna was confused. "Sis, why should he apologize? These people are broke. They were probably looking for a rich man and throwing themselves at him."
"Shut up!"
Sophia stopped Susanna from saying more. She watched Lemira warily. If it had been anyone else, she might have dismissed the threat. But Lemira had dared to blackmail Susanna with those videos before. Now that she knew Orion's identity, she would only be more brazen.
Lemira smiled. "Ms. Sinclair is a smart woman. As long as he apologizes sincerely, we can let this matter go."
The man had no choice but to apologize to Oanice.
