When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 809

When Lemira heard these words, she could only feel an overwhelming sense of irony.

In her previous life, right up to the day she died, she had longed to hear Asher admit regret and offer an apology. Now, having finally gotten her wish and hearing him say those words, she found herself far less joyful than she’d imagined she would be.

Lemira's face remained expressionless, her eyes brimming with sarcasm.

Asher caught the look in her eyes and was left speechless, the words dying on his lips.

At that moment, Evander came downstairs, leading Evelina with him.

Evelina looked utterly miserable—dressed in mourning clothes felt almost unbearable, as if it was costing her half her life.

When Lemira saw how uncomfortable Evelina was, her mood immediately improved.

She walked over and stood beside them. “I suggest you adjust your attitude. Otherwise, I can have you both thrown out at any time.”

Evander was clearly frustrated. “Lemira, don’t get ahead of yourself! Since when do you get to dictate what happens in the Langston family? Asher, aren’t you going to say anything? Are you just going to stand there and let Lemira boss us around?”

Asher replied coolly, “This really is Lemira’s house now. If you want to stay here, you have to follow her rules. If not, you’re free to leave.”

“Asher, our parents left this house to us! How could you just hand it over to Lemira?” Evander protested.

Now it was Asher's turn to get angry. “You have some nerve bringing that up. How much money did you burn through on those reckless investments? How many messes have I had to clean up for you over the years?”

Evander was immediately silenced.

Lucian looked at Evander and said, “Sure, Mom and Dad divided the inheritance, but if Asher hadn’t kept this family afloat, your shares wouldn’t be worth the paper they’re printed on. And if Evelina’s father hadn’t killed our parents, your leg wouldn’t be like this.”
