When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 840

Lemira knew she wouldn't get anything more out of him, so she left the basement with Orion.

After thinking it over, Lemira spoke up: “I think the evidence must have something to do with that car. The Sinclair family tampered with it.”

Plus, now that Hale works at an auto repair shop, he must be very familiar with cars.

Orion nodded, recalling the scene of the crash. He said, “Of course, the driver wasn’t found dead inside the car, but at the door—as if he’d gone back to retrieve something, but didn’t make it out before the explosion.”

“Is it possible that what the driver went back for was the evidence? Or maybe he planned to destroy it, but didn’t expect the car to explode so quickly?”

Lemira was sure that Evelina’s father wanted to get some dirt on the Sinclair family to use as leverage against them.

“That makes sense. Evelina’s father must have been at the scene at the time, and after the driver was dead, he would have had the chance to take the evidence.”

Lemira nodded. “You’re right. Things are starting to look much clearer now.”

Orion glanced at her. “But do you actually believe what they said?”

“I don’t. I think they’re just shifting blame to avoid responsibility. I’m not going to let a single one of them get away with this.”

Lemira glanced back at the basement, her voice cold: “An eye for an eye. Justice demands a price, and I’ll make every one of them pay.”

Orion’s gaze darkened, and his hand, hanging at his side, slowly curled into a fist.

“But I think the evidence Hale has isn’t just about someone tampering with our parents’ car. It probably also involves the person who was sitting in the back seat of the Sinclairs’ car.”

Orion still couldn’t be sure if Hale recognized him.

But judging by Hale’s expression a moment ago, Orion guessed that Hale was most likely using this matter to blackmail the Sinclair family.

“If that’s the case, there isn’t other evidence. If it’s only someone’s testimony without any physical proof, the Sinclair family might be able to evade legal punishment.”
