Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren)

Chapter 118 Christina hesitated, torn between the desire to make money and her business instincts that warned of potential risks.

Unlike Irene and Leroy, who blindly invested without considering the risks, she knew better than to jump in without thinking

If I were you, I wouldnt play the role of a gullible investor, Andrew interjected.noveldrama

Andrew, do you know something? Christina asked, surprised by his tone.

Andrew frowned and said, I already told you the East Side isnt getting developed.

Youve been in business long enough to be wary of such promises, Christina.

Since when does investing a few million guarantee returns in the hundreds of millions? It sounds too good to be true because it is.

Christinas resolve began to waver at his words.

Stop fear mongering, Andrew.

This isnt your business, Irene snapped

Leroy added, Christie, why are you even listening to him? Harvey wouldnt trick you.

Well, Christie, it seems you trust Andrew more than me, Harvey said with feigned disappointment. Forget I mentioned anything

Christie, dont let Harveys goodwill go to waste Irene urged anxiously.

Hes offering us part of the Weller familys profits! Christina reconsidered

After all, when it came to insider connections, the Weller familys credibility surely outweighed Andrews. Hence, Harveys information had to be reliable.

Im sorry for doubting you, Harvey, she said decisively.

Stevens Corporation will invest 12 million dollars.

Andrew gave her a pointed look.

12 million ? Christina, can Stevens Corporation really afford such a reckless move? Back out now before you end up crying about it later.

Mr.

Lloyd, please stay out of my business, Christina replied coldly.

She felt Andrew had gone too far.

It was one thing to throw his weight around using Marvins influence, but interfering in Stevens

Corporations affairs was crossing the line.

Besides, she was engaged to Harvey.

There was no way he would harm the Stevens family.

Such an opportunity was rare, and Christina was not about to let it go.

Andrew let out a sigh, his eyes filled with amusement.

Mark had personally told him the development was planned for the West Side, not the East Side, where Harvey claimed

Nonetheless, whether it was the East or West Side did not matter anymore.

Andrew knew one thing for sure: nobody from the Stevens family would ever believe him.

Even Christina was being so biased, looking at him through tinted glasses like he was some +25 BONL Chapter 118 kind of villain

Since they were so eager to jump into the fire pit, he figured he might as well let them do it.

There was no point in saving people who did not want to be saved.

Andrew, in Christies honor, why dont I let you in on this opportunity too? Harvey smirked with a winners confidence

Ill pass om losing money, Andrew replied.

Go find some other fool to scam.

Dont let your pride get in the way of making money, Harvey said with mock disappointment.

I know youre worried that Christie will look down on you for accepting my help, but theres no shame in making money as a man.

Andrew chuckled.

You should worry about yourself first.

I hear you still owe Jayrodale Bank millions.

A cold glint flashed in Harveys eyes, though his smile never wavered

Nelson must be spreading lies about me, knowing hes about to get whats coming to him.
