When They Beg, I Rise!

Back then, she'd spend hours every day training in the game, studying the tactics of the Everhart family team members, aiming to outplay them in the upcoming match.

Evelina wasn't naturally gifted at gaming, so she could only serve as a substitute, never making it to the main roster for matches.

Lemira cherished the feeling of battling alongside her brothers in the game, with no outsiders to disrupt their family bond.

She had become so absorbed in preparing for the match that she even neglected her exam prep. But just when they had won a crucial match, making victory within reach, her brothers paused the game. She was benched to let Evelina play.

And in the end, they won the tournament, crowned as the national champions. Her brothers, along with Evelina, stood on the winner's podium, stepping on her efforts to claim the glory. Evelina, holding her trophy, was in the middle of her brothers, smiling blissfully. Lemira watched the game on TV, feeling as if her heart had been pierced, impossible to mend.

"Why are you crying? It's not like this is a soap opera. What's got you so moved?"

Snapping back to reality, Lemira wiped away her tears, memories of her past life overwhelming her emotions.

She was handed a piece of paper by a man with slender, attractive fingers. Taking the paper, she looked up at him, slightly embarrassed, "Do you play this game?"

"Your main focus right now should be on preparing for your exams, not gaming!" Orion sat back in his chair, lazily leaning back, not looking at her but focused on the game.

Lemira turned her attention back to the game, stating confidently, "SkyBlaze is going to lose."

SkyBlaze was the team Alaric was on.

Orion's lips curled into a slight smile, his tone casual, "Seems like you've got a good eye."

As expected, SkyBlaze lost without much suspense.

Seeing Alaric's furious reaction on the live stream, including smashing his keyboard - Alaric was known for his temper, brought an unexpected sense of satisfaction to Lemira.

Happy to see Alaric lose, she resolved that she wouldn't play for the Langstons anymore. She was determined to fight for herself, become a professional player, earn money for college, and support herself.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Tired of having her allowance cut off as a threat to keep her in line, even being forced to give up on a top university for Evelina, she craved financial independence to break free from the Langstons' control.

E-sports wasn't seen as a lucrative career now, but with the rise of live streaming, professional gamers could also make money through streaming.

With her past life's gaming experience, this was the easiest and most effortless way to earn money for her. Lemira made up her mind secretly.

After the live stream ended, Orion turned to cast her a glance, walked over to her, and removed the IV needle.

He pressed a cotton swab on Lemira's hand, "The medicine's on the table. You can go after you take it."

"Thanks!" Lemira took the medicine and left the infirmary.

Just as she left, a young man walked in, nonchalantly saying, "Orion, it's rare to see you playing the hero. But this girl's got a bit of a reputation at school. She's quite the topic on the forum. Just don't get fooled." Orion, appearing less distant and more relaxed, nonchalantly responded, "Why haven't you left yet?"

"I'm just curious. Why did you choose to become a school doctor here, even missing Matt's game? He was so distracted looking for you during the match, nearly got blindsided by that Langston boy. Tell me why, and I'll leave." Orion removed his mask, and rolled up his sleeves, revealing the ugly scar.

Upon seeing it, Thaddeus Draven's expression darkened, "After all these years, you still can't let go? That accident wasn't your fault! Wait, don't tell me this girl is..."

"Shut up!" Orion closed his eyes to rest, ignoring the person beside him.
