When They Beg, I Rise!
Chapter 212

Later, she was the brains behind the firewall source code of the internal system, crafted to prevent a repeat of the same debacle. But this time, she was determined to reclaim her efforts. Orion lingered at the doorway of the study, catching a glimpse of her resolute expression, and chose not to interrupt.

Although he was in the dark about what Lemira was plotting. But judging by her demeanor, it seemed she had things under control. If not, he was ready to step in and clean up the mess for her. Just as Lemira logged off the system, a series of urgent knocks echoed from the other side of the door.

She let out a scoff, "Finally shown up."

Lemira walked out of the study, facing Orion, "Maybe you should hide?"

He raised an eyebrow, "Am I that much of an eyesore?"

"That's not what I meant. I think Asher is here to stir up trouble, and I'm worried he'll start by knocking you out."

Lemira pushed Orion back into his room, "It's my own battles, so let me handle it."

Orion, left with no choice, retreated to his room.

Turning around, Lemira opened the apartment door, only to replace it wasn't Asher waiting outside but Lucian!

Her expression turned icy, "Why are you here instead?"

Lucian seated in a wheelchair, pale-faced, "I managed to stall Asher. You need to come with me now!"

Lemira took a step back, creating distance between them, "I'm not going anywhere."

"Lemmy, don't be stubborn. Asher is furious and capable of anything. Come with me first, and I'll handle the explanation to Asher."

"I don't need your explanations. I've decided to cut ties with you all, and this is the fact, I'm not joking."

Lucian's face turned even paler, "We're family. Are you really going to sever ties over some minor misunderstandings?"

He had always doubted Lemira's intent to cut off relations until she announced it publicly, sending him into a real panic.

Lucian desperately tried, "I truly regret my past mistakes and want to make it up to you. Can't you give me another chance?" Lemira scoff, "Save your fake apologies. I don't need it."

"Lemira, how can you speak to Lucian like that? He skipped surgery just to come here for you. Look at what you've become!"

Asher appeared from the elevator,

his face stern, "I was willing to give you a chance before, but now I see you need a proper lesson to avoid bringing disaster to the Langston family!"

Lemira lifted her eyes, "I've already severed ties with the Langston family, yet you're still so arrogant. Before I go, I have a gift for you."

"Hmph, Lemira, you're scared now?

Too late! Unless you end things with that school doctor and come home to apologize on your knees, making amends with Eve, I might consider not pursuing your actions.

Lemira only found it laughable. She coldly spoke, "Asher, do you recall who wrote the Langston Group's firewall source code?"

Asher hesitated, "Why bring that up? Don't think you're entitled to meddle in these affairs just because you dabbled in game development!"

At that moment, Asher's secretary

rushed over, panic-stricken, "Boss, our internal system has been hacked, the firewall has collapsed, and I fear our confidential information might be leaked

Asher turned to Lemira, "What did you do? How could you possibly manage this?"

Lucian offered a bitter smile, reminding him, "Asher, the Langston Group's firewall source code was Lemmy's work. Have you forgotten?"
