When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 648

Oanice's eyes sparkled with amusement. "Serves the Sinclairs right for being so arrogant. Always going on about how her sister is the top socialite, when the Everhart family hasn't even acknowledged it. And they had the nerve to call you the other woman. So shameless!"

Seeing Oanice's righteous indignation, Lemira said, "Alright, we have more important things to do."

"I know. I've been keeping an eye on Evelina. She headed towards the exit, so the Draven family must have arrived."

A cold light flashed in Lemira's eyes. If a perfect opportunity was presenting itself, it would be a waste not to take it.

Soon after, the party officially began.

Lemira and Oanice stood in the crowd, watching Stella walk out in a beautiful gown, looking like a princess.

She watched Stella's steady gait, which showed no sign of any abnormality.

It seemed the device she had designed was a good fit for Stella. However, it had been a rush job, so the comfort level was probably not ideal. It would need further adjustments.

"Lemira, you're here too."

Mrs. Amanda suddenly appeared beside Lemira. She noticed the dress Lemira was wearing; it looked vaguely familiar.

Seeing Mrs. Amanda this time, Lemira felt a little awkward.

The dress was a gift from Orion.

Mrs. Amanda just glanced at it and then smiled. "Did you come alone? I heard the Langstons are all here. They're supposed to announce the engagement between the Langston and Waverly families tonight."

Lemira pressed her lips together. "That's not exactly good news."

"Ms. Langston, do you have some objection to the Waverlys? This marriage would be very beneficial for your family."

Just then, Sophia walked over gracefully, as if nothing had happened earlier.

Lemira glanced at Sophia, who was acting completely unfazed. "Just a little while ago, your sister framed me for theft, only to be exposed for her deliberate slander. And now you can stand here and talk to me as if nothing happened. I have to admire the thick skin of you Sinclairs."

Mrs. Amanda looked surprised, then turned to Sophia. "Your sister really is out of line."
