Chapter 389
Blood gushed out instantly, staining the floor beneath. Lemira’s breath hitched at the sight of the vivid red liquid. She couldn’t believe Lucian had actually hurt himself!
“You’ve lost your mind?” she exclaimed.
Hogan was equally shocked, hastily snatching the shattered porcelain shard from Lucian’s grasp and pressing down on his wrist. “Boss, how could you treat yourself so carelessly!” Lucian, however, seemed oblivious to the pain.
He fixed his gaze on Lemira. “After I’m gone, the company’s all yours. Just remember to visit my grave on Memorial Day, that’s all I ask p>
Lemira’s hands slowly clenched into fists.
Orion stepped in front of Lemira, blocking her view.
He looked down at her. “Closing your eyes p>
Lemira stood still, her eyelids drooping, only to see more blood pooling on the floor.
“Boss, we need to get you to the hospital p>
Lucian remained motionless, stubbornly staring at Lemira.
Hogan cried out in despair, “Ms. Lemira, please, let’s get the boss to the hospital. He could die, for real p>
Lemira reluctantly closed her eyes. Why was everyone pressuring her?
She stepped out from Orion’s embrace and looked towards Lucian.
She walked over to him.
A glimmer of hope flickered in Lucian’s eyes. He wanted Lemira to see the sincerity in his apology!
He was willing to die for her!
Lemira approached Lucian and struck him on the neck, causing him to faint.
Coldly, she said, “Take him to the hospital p>
Hogan, no longer concerned with formalities, called in the bodyguards to carry Lucian away.
Asher, who had been waiting in the elevator, was shocked to see Lucian covered in blood. “What happened p>
Hogan’s voice broke. “The boss wanted Ms. Lemira’s forgiveness and took drastic measures p>
He had tried to advise Lucian, but to no avail.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have come to this!
Asher, too, was panicked, clumsily helping Hogan take Lucian to the hospital.
Blood trailed from the office to the elevator.
Lemira, seeing the blood on the floor, turned away, unwilling to look.
She hadn’t expected Lucian to go to such extremes!
Orion handed her a tissue and bent down
hands. “This was his choice.
Ps to wipe the blood from here

let it affect you p>
“Yeah, Lemon, this is like emotional blackmail p>
Orion added, “Guilt tripping p>
Thaddeus nodded. “Exactly. He hoped that by doing something so extreme, you’d relent. We won’t fall for it!” Lemira took a deep breath, seeing him methodically cleaning her hands. Her eyelashes fluttered.
She had always guarded against letting her feelings show.
Yet, at this moment, they seemed to grow uncontrollably.
Her heart tightened, and she quickly averted her gaze, fearing someone might notice.
After checking her hands were clean, Orion straightened up and casual disposed of the tissue. “So,
done with work today?” Conwe
“Not yet. Was planning to meet with. everyone to discuss some bug fixes. Didn’t expect the Langston family to

trouble p>
Lemira looked somewhat uneasy.
Orion suggested, “How about we meet in half an hour p>
Thaddeus hastily interjected, “Actually, there’s no rush. We could meet tomorrow p>
Can’t you see Lemon’s not in the best mood?
Isn’t it a bit cruel to work now?
Thaddeus desperately tried to signal Orion, but the man pretended not to notice.
Lemira, however, shook her head. “I’m fine. Let’s meet in half an hour p>
