Chapter 719
Lemira nodded. “I’m all set p>
A girl stared at the student council president in disbelief. “You mean Lemira is giving a speech on stage p>
“That’s right p>
“How is that possible? Why would Lemira be chosen to represent the students? Her reputation at school is terrible, and hardly anyone even likes her. I think this decision is totally unfair p>
The girl was clearly upset.
The student council president couldn’t help but sigh. “Who said Lemira is giving the speech as a student representative p>
“But the school arranged for a student representative to speak, didn’t they? And you just told Lemira to get ready to go on stage p>
Doesn’t that mean Lemira was chosen as the student representative?
“She’s not representing the students—she’s giving a speech as a representative of a tech company p>
The president had only found out about this himself today. The school really was full of surprises: a freshman already working as an executive at a tech company.
The girl was stunned. “That’s even less believable! Lemira is just a freshman—how could that be possible p>
The students nearby all looked equally shocked, finding it hard to believe.
After all, they were all still students. No matter how talented Lemira was, could she really be that accomplished already?
Lemira glanced at the time, then turned to the student council president. “I’ll go get ready, then p>
“Go ahead. If you need anything, just let me know p>
After Lemira left, the complaining girl looked like she was about to lose it. “There’s just no way. Are you sure you didn’t make a mistake p>
“No mistake. Lemira is a key technical member at Maple Group. I heard she even participated in developing their Al project p>
The president had just learned this himself, and he was still in shock.
The girl gasped. “You mean that Maple Group the one that’s been all over the news lately p>
She’d even dreamed of working there after graduation.
Oanice, standing nearby, added, “That’s not all. Lemira is also a shareholder at Maple Group. The dividends she gets each year are more a than most people see in lifetime. Once Maple Group goes public, Lemira will be financially independent p>
Stella chimed in, “Exactly! Lemira already comes from a great family-Ms. Langston’s daughter, valedictorian of her class-and now she’s a successful entrepreneur. Inca little while her net worth will easily be in the hundreds of millions p>
The students around them all gasped, their faces full of envy.
A net worth in the hundreds of millions-could she really be that incredible?
All of them were still relying on their parents for support, but Lemira was already set for life.
Oanice shot the complaining girl a look and said sarcastically, “And to think, people still say Lemira has some sugar daddy and just wants to marry rich. With her net worth, she is the rich family p>
The girl was completely thrown off and burning with jealousy, but she didn’t dare say another word.
Oanice and Stella exchanged a look, satisfied to see the gossipers put in their place.
Lemira walked to the front row and saw her assigned seat was in the center. She didn’t bother going there-instead, she picked an empty seat off to the side and sat down, glancing over her speech. She was already fully prepared.
“Lemira, move. That’s not your seat p>
Susanna strutted over, looking down her nose at her.
Lemira looked up. “It’s not your seat, either p>
“Maybe not, but it’s my sister’s. She’s an invited guest today, representing her company. Not like some people who just latch onto men to climb the social ladder. My sister is a real powerhouse p>
Susanna’s tone was a mix of bragging and disdain.
Lemira looked up at her. “Listening to you, I almost thought you were the one sitting here. But you’re not are you? How odd. Your sister might be the top socialite, but you’re just a criminal with an ankle monitor HoW. is it you haven’t learned anything from her p>
Susanna hated anyone mentioning her ankle monitor. She immediately exploded, “You have no right to lecture me! Get out of here—this is my sister’s seat. You don’t deserve to sit there p>
