When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 794

Evander's attitude was no longer as resolute or as cheerful as before.

Seeing that she had managed to stir up trouble, Lemira finally smiled and said to the newly arrived butler, “Bring out all the dishes I like. As for those who don’t like it, let them leave.”

It was obvious she was referring to Evelina.

Evelina glared angrily at Lemira’s back, then turned to Evander with a pitiful look. “Evander, Lemira is deliberately trying to drive a wedge between us. She’s hoping we'll turn on each other, hoping that you’ll never have an heir.”

Evander let out a cold snort. “She wouldn’t dare! As long as I’m here, nothing will happen to my child.”

He glanced at Evelina’s stomach and said, “You’d better make sure the child you’re carrying is really mine. Otherwise, I promise you’ll regret ever being born.”

Evelina shivered despite herself and said softly, “Evander, can’t you trust me, after everything we’ve been through?”

Evander grabbed her chin, his expression full of mockery. “I used to trust you. I put you on a pedestal. And you? You acted like a whore behind my back, sleeping with any man you pleased. If you weren’t carrying my son, do you think I would have saved you?”

Evander was never a magnanimous man.

After his leg injury over the years, he had become suspicious, sensitive, and insecure.

That time when Evelina had publicly called him a “cripple,” it had truly wounded him. Whatever little affection he still held for her had all but disappeared.

Evelina forced herself to swallow her anger. If it weren’t for that bitch Lemira ruining her plan this time, she would have already taken the money and disappeared.

Instead, she was now imprisoned by the Langston family, completely powerless.

Inside, Evelina couldn’t help but uneasily wonder: had Lemira really caught her father? Would her father’s accomplices be able to rescue him?

Right now, Evelina hated everyone in the Langston family. Once she escaped, she swore she’d make them all pay.

Meanwhile, the entire Langston family had gathered in the dining room.
