Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren)

Chapter 140 Irene, embarrassed and angry, snapped, Who asked you to defend us? Stop acting so high an mighty.

If Harvey were here, he could have handled it just as easily.

Leroy added smugly, Exactly! If Harvey were here, that idiot Conan wouldnt have dared to act so shamelessly.

Deep down, both mother and son felt bitter.

The fact that Andrew handled someone who had trampled over them only made them look weak and useless in comparison.

Christina could not take it anymore and scolded them.

Mom, Leroy, can you two just stop? She sighed in exasperation.

Andrew helped us out, and thats the fact.

Thanks to him, the issue with Thrive Enterprises materials has been resolved perfectly.

Christina turned to Andrew with a complicated expression.

Whether you accept it or not, I need to thank you.

If it werent for you, my mom and Leroy would have been beaten for nothing.

Christie, why are you thanking him? We didnt ask for his help, Irene muttered resentfully.

Andrew, please excuse their behavior, Christina said apologetically.

Andrews tone remained indifferent.noveldrama

Why would I mind? Besides, I dont need your gratitude.

What I did earlier was purely because Mr.

Huxley caused trouble on my turf it has nothing to do with your family.

Christina let out a bitter laugh.

I guess I was wrong to think you helped because of me.

Still, Im grateful

See? I knew he wasnt being kind, Irene remarked sarcastically.

Thats fine we dont need his help anyway.

Christina looked at Andrew with concern.

Mr.

Huxley is quite influential in Jayrodale.

I doubt hell let this go easily.

What would you suggest then, Ms.

Stévens? Andrew asked indifferently.

Use your connections.

You work for Mr.

Yates now, even if youre just a department head.

If you could get Mr.

Yates to put in a word; Conan wouldnt dare cause trouble, Christina suggested promptly. Andrew shook his head.

Thats unnecessary.

If Mr.

Huxley wants to cause more trouble, he wont be lucky enough to walk away next time. Christina thought Andrew was being overconfident.

You have powerful backing now, so dont try to handle everything alone.

Youve done good work for Mr.

Yates; he should help you.

This small matter doesnt require Marvins involvement, Andrew replied.

Besides, Id hate Chapter 140 to startle him with my problems.

The Stevens family took his words as bragging

Irene sneered, Youre surely something else, acting like youre above Mr. Yates

Who are you trying to impress? Leroy scoffed.

I bet he cant even get a meeting with Mr.

Yates.

But thats understandable

After all, Andrews just a small time employee working for him! Christina sighed and shook her head.

Ive never understood why you always act so superior as if everyone else is beneath you.
