What made it even more satisfying was that all three women belonged to Andrew. Andrew said, "That's right. I was just wondering if I should take you guys treasure hunting! But once the treasure is uncovered, there's bound to be conflict and danger. You probably already know why." Lauren, ever understanding, nodded. "Andrew, we get it. Bringing us would only add to your burden, so we'll just wait at home for you to come back." Francesca added, "I know where I stand in terms of my martial arts skills. So this time, I'm sitting out too—I don't want to drag you down." However, Aspen looked conflicted. She stared at Andrew with big, hopeful eyes, clearly wanting to go, though she did not say a word. Andrew took a moment to think before responding, "Lauren, Fran, you two should stay home. I won't let you put yourselves in danger. "As for you, my little servant, I'll respect your choice. Your martial arts have already reached the senior grandmaster level. To regular folks, you're

Chapter 1492
Andrew felt nothing but indifference in his heart. While Kevin wanted to take him out, he had long been planning to destroy the head of the Wrights himself. Since Kevin chose to toss away what little was left of their so-called brotherhood, Andrew saw no need to hold back either. If the treasure hunt gave him the right opportunity, he would gladly erase Kevin from existence. Once he returned to Blumedale, it would be time for Yara to rise to power. From that point on, the Wrights would essentially be working for him. Of course, Andrew knew he could not let his guard down around Yara either. It was not about being overly paranoid—it was simply the reality. After all, Yara was not truly one of his people. A woman's heart was a fickle thing, especially when she got a taste of power. Who could say for sure that if Yara managed to rise to the top, she would not turn around and stab him in the back? … The next day, Kevin called again, urging Andrew to bring the completed map fr

"If you don't want to go, you don't have to," Tiana said coldly. Natasha clenched her jaw but did not dare snap back at Tiana. Instead, she turned to Andrew with pleading eyes. Andrew let out a helpless sigh. "Be good. Sit with Jerry. If anything unexpected happens on the road, it's better to have a backup." Only then did Natasha head to the back, but it was obvious she felt wronged—her eyes were already brimming with tears. Andrew felt a sudden wave of irritation. Tiana's tone could really be too domineering sometimes. Besides, Natasha was a woman who lived a hard life, surviving on the edge. Andrew truly admired her, and yes, he liked her too. This trip had meant a lot to Natasha. She was excited, even happy, because she had finally gotten a chance to be alone with Andrew. However, the moment Tiana gave her that command, all her hopes were crushed. Natasha was not the kind of woman who cried easily. Her spirit had always been tough. Yet, her heart had softened because

Meanwhile, at the Wright Estate in Blumedale. Every major power in the treasure hunt had already arrived. Rafael said, "Where the hell is that Andrew? How much longer are we supposed to wait? I say once the treasure's location is confirmed, we all drop the formalities and take that punk out first." Mosby agreed, "I second that—1000 times over. That bastard deserves to be torn apart piece by piece. Ever since he showed up in Blumedale, he's been throwing wrenches into everything we do. And now? He's playing all sides like a damn pro. We can't let him live—not a chance." Before Andrew had even arrived, the entire meeting hall at the Wright estate was already in an uproar. At the head of the room, Kevin remained calm and all smiles, unaffected by the rising tension. He had already received word from Tora that Andrew was on his way, and from the look of it, he had not brought many people with him. That would make things so much easier to control. Whether Andrew lived or died wou

Rafael scoffed and said nothing more, though a trace of frustration lingered in his heart. It was becoming clear that Tiana and the entire Rhodes family no longer seemed to take Joe seriously. Especially that seductive woman herself. She had been growing closer and closer to Andrew. Was she really banking on Andrew to be her shield? Rafael found it laughable. After all, Joe was the pride of the Driscoll family, a once-in-a-generation prodigy. If he stepped onto the scene, Andrew would not last a second. Granted, Tiana used to be cautious when it came to the Driscolls. But now that her own strength was nearing the level of a martial king, she had enough power to command respect on her own. And Andrew? He was not just some small-time punk from Jayrodale as everyone assumed. He was the Dragon Prince of the Lloyds—the son of the man who once drove Tiana absolutely mad with desire. As they said, like father, like son. With Lauren now linked to such a monstrous talent, Tiana co

Mosby suddenly shot to his feet, veins bulging in fury. "That's right, Andrew, you little bastard! We've tolerated your crap long enough! If you so much as pull a stunt with that final fragment, you and your entire crew are dead." Around the hall of the Wright estate, several unfamiliar faces remained seated. They had not said a word, but the way they looked at Andrew was loaded with deadly intent. Andrew was not the least bit afraid, locking eyes with each of them. It was clear from their bulging temples and the glint of light in their gazes that these were all elite fighters, at least semi-martial kings. Any one of them could dominate a battlefield. Yet, even so, Andrew looked at them like they were beneath him. "Oh, so you do want to kill me? Fine. Then I'll go ahead and destroy the final map fragment. That way, none of you will ever get to the treasure. We can all go down in flames together!" He shouted angrily and raised the parchment, ready to tear it apart. Then, to d

At that moment, it felt like the air had frozen. Rafael, Mosby, Kevin, and the mysterious man in the cloak beside Rafael all lunged forward in unison, trying to stop Andrew. The sudden surge of chaos sent a storm of killing intent rippling through the Wright estate's grand hall. Tiana shot to her feet, fully alert, her face filled with tension. She silently cursed, 'Damn it, this punk! Is he trying to start a full-blown war right now?' Destroying the final fragment like this would be no different from cutting Kevin and Mosby's lifelines in half. Obviously, no one would agree with his suggestion. "Don't move! If anyone takes a step, I'll burn it right here!" Andrew roared. The lighter in his hand spat out a tall, vicious flame. The torn map hovered dangerously close to its edge. Mosby's face twitched. He stomped the floor in frustration. "You little bastard! You came prepared, huh? Bringing a damn high-powered lighter with you—what is this, treasure hunting or arson?" Arou

Everyone discovered that Andrew's words were irrefutable. Yes, if they got their hands on the treasure left by the Fallen Crimson Dynasty, one billion would be nothing. Rafael was the first to agree. "Fine, I'll give you one billion! But after the treasure hunt ends, whether you'll be alive to spend this billion is another matter!" Stanley, speaking with his foreign accent, also nodded. "Mr. Lloyd, your asking price is quite reasonable." Andrew immediately provided his account information, and two deposits of two billion each showed up as received. On the other hand, Mosby and Kevin had not responded yet. When Andrew's gaze looked over with a smirk, Mosby roared viciously and obediently transferred the money. He was willing to swallow his pride and bleed his wallet for the treasure. However, the moment this hunt ended, Mosby vowed to drag Andrew straight to hell. Kevin gave a forced laugh. "Andy, come on. We're sworn brothers, aren't we? Talking about money is just bad tast

Even Tiana had not expected Andrew to pull off a bluff that bold. She did not know whether to be mad or impressed. In the end, she could not help but laugh. To think he had Rafael, Kevin, and the rest dancing in circles like fools—only her treasured son-in-law could pull that off. Her heart fluttered with a quiet thrill. With this man backing the Rhodes family, they were bound to walk away from this treasure hunt with serious gains. Rafael's eyes burned as he stared at the map in Andrew's hand. "Since the real fragment is out, let's piece them all together—quickly! That way, we can finally locate the actual treasure site!" Stanley stood silent beside him, but Andrew noticed something was off. Out of everyone in the hall, Stanley looked the most shaken, his limbs slightly trembling from excitement. It was normal for people to be hyped over treasure. That was not unique to Holtrien natives or foreigners. However, Stanley was supposed to be Rafael's hired backup. So, he shou

Tiana urgently said to Andrew, "Andrew, we need to depart too. Rafael and Mosby have already taken action first!" Andrew appeared calm and unhurried, shaking his head. "No rush." Tiana was about to urge him again when Kevin burst out laughing. "Andy, at least you know your place! Well, since the treasure location has appeared, your usefulness has ended! If you follow us, I definitely won't be holding back!" Andrew's eyes flashed with cold light, but his voice stayed flat. "Then let me wish you all the best, Kevin. Hope you return with billions in treasure." Kevin opened his mouth to shoot back—but just then, a helicopter appeared, hovering directly over the Wrights' private lawn. One by one, Mosby, Rafael, and Stanley boarded the aircraft. Rafael shouted, "Mr. Wright Senior, first come, first served! We'll be taking the lead! Andrew! Once I bring the treasure back, it'll be your funeral!" "Thanks for your hard work helping us strike gold, kid!" Amid a flurry of smug, gr
