When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 751

The moment Lemira Langston uttered those words, Evelina Sterling’s eyes flew open in shock, her face drained of color.

Evelina stared at Lemira as if she’d seen a ghost. How could this woman possibly know her father wasn’t dead?

When did Lemira find out?

What else had she uncovered?

A wave of panic surged through Evelina. Just moments earlier, she had finally managed to relax; now, she was back on edge, even worse than before.

Her nerves were in complete disarray.

Asher Langston’s mind went blank with disbelief.

He looked at Lemira incredulously. “How could Evelina’s father not be dead?”

“Because I saw Evelina meet with her father myself—her father, who everyone thought had died years ago. They’ve continued their contact in secret.”

Lemira turned to glance at Evelina. “Remember that time Caspian kicked you out of the car after beating you up? You went straight to a café and met with someone. Have you really forgotten who that was?”

Evelina was so terrified she started to shake. Lemira really did know.

Had she known all along?

Evelina felt her legs give way and collapsed onto the lawn, unable to say a single word.

What was she supposed to do now?

Lucian Langston pressed urgently, “Are you saying Evelina’s father is really alive? Then where is he?”

“He's in hiding, and he's done a very good job. I’ve been searching for quite some time and still haven’t been able to locate him,” Lemira replied.

But before Lemira had even finished speaking, Evelina burst out, “Lemira, you’re lying! My father’s been dead for years. You must have been mistaken—I never met with him.”

Since Lemira hadn’t actually found her father, there was no way Evelina could admit anything now.

No, as long as she was still stuck in this mess, if the Langston family learned her father was alive, she’d be ruined!

Asher pressed Lemira, “What else did you find?”
