When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 852

Mrs. Amanda covered her face, overwhelmed by a suffocating despair. "Stop it."

"Mom, I know you don't want to believe it, but I'll prove it to you. That is, if you're willing to face the truth."

The line remained dead silent.

Shortly after Orion hung up, a text from his mother lit up his screen: [Fine.]

He stared at the single word, his gaze turning icy.

He immediately dialed Thaddeus Draven. "It's time to close the net on the Sinclair family."

"Finally making your move?" Thaddeus replied. "If you ask me, the only reason the Sinclairs got away with their arrogance for so long was out of respect for your mother. Now that you're done playing nice, I say good riddance."

As Orion's closest friend, Thaddeus knew exactly how ruthless the Sinclairs were behind closed doors.

It was about time Orion put an end to it.

Orion stood before the expansive glass window, overlooking the city. "I tolerated them because Amelia kept my mother happy. I gave them a pass for her sake.

But the Sinclairs are ungrateful parasites. It's time to take out the trash."

He couldn't risk them manipulating his mother any further.

Thaddeus's voice crackled through the speaker. "Does this mean Lemira is going to find out you were in that car with her?"

"Yes."

"Well, she was bound to find out eventually. But I'd recommend waiting until you have undeniable proof before you drop the bomb on Lemon. I'm sure she'll understand."

Just thinking about the situation made Thaddeus sick to his stomach.

The Sinclair family was despicable. To cover their own tracks, they had dragged Orion into their mess.

And Mrs. Amelia's gamble had paid off—the Everhart family ended up cleaning up the aftermath.

If they hadn't, the Sinclairs would have been wiped out years ago.

Orion gripped his phone tightly. "I know."

"Don't stress over it too much. Even if she gets mad, you'll just have to work harder to win her back. I know Lemon will eventually see how much you care."
