Chapter 1641
Still, Andrew had no reason to question Chantelle over something like that, so he could only keep it to himself. On the other hand, Chantelle had never looked him in the eye. Her posture remained straight and composed. Andrew could not stand the weird tension in the room anymore, so he stood up and said, "Well then, Ms. Garcia, once you're done cleaning up, you should get some rest. I'm going to bed now." Chantelle stood up with him and laughed lightly. "Alright, Mr. Lloyd, good night!" Andrew headed upstairs, turned off the lights, and lay down. Since Chantelle was staying overnight at Serenity Villa, he could not have the three girls join him tonight. Otherwise, if things got noisy, Chantelle would inevitably hear everything, which would be rather awkward. Lauren, Francesca, and Aspen were thinking the same thing. Soon after everything was cleaned up, they each returned to their respective rooms and obediently went to sleep. Andrew had already fallen asleep, but his ph

Late at night, the study in Driscoll residence was dimly lit. Maurice, who seemed to always hide in the shadows, asked in a low voice, "Joe hasn't stepped out since he came back this afternoon?" Walter, the head of the Driscoll family's Shadow Division, whispered back, "That's correct, sir. He has remained in his room since returning during the day!" Maurice frowned. "Did you send anyone to check on what's going on?" Walter shook his head with a bitter smile. "I sent three different groups, sir. None of them got in. He even turned away his sisters." Maurice let out a cold snort. "Something's off with him since he returned this afternoon, and I can feel it. Walter, tell him I want to see him." Walter hesitated. "Sir, it's already pretty late. Maybe we should wait till morning?" Maurice's voice turned sharp. "I know what time it is. But I can't sit back and watch Joe lose his focus just because of a girl. Go now. I need to hear from him what exactly is going on in his head!"

Maurice said, "Let's not even talk about the Driscoll family's reputation, just your name alone isn't something that Andrew has the right to challenge!" Joe shook his head. "For Lauren, I'm willing to swallow my pride, no matter how far I have to lower myself. Besides, I really think you're all underestimating Andrew. I don't know much about his martial skills just yet. "But earlier today, I saw him strike with a needle. His speed was insane, almost too fast to see, and the impact was undeniable. Plus, his medical expertise is unmatched. Even specialists from the Advanced Medical Institute, like Dr. Lake and his peers, have admitted defeat to him." He continued, "Furthermore, his reputation in Blumedale keeps growing, and I hear he's highly regarded by the Keller family and even Governor McCormick! While I haven't overestimated him or particularly regard him highly, facts are facts. I think the family should acknowledge that." Maurice replied flatly, "We've already looked into

Andrew woke up early in the morning feeling fantastic. It was no exaggeration to say that he felt like it had undergone intense nourishment from within. Without even engaging his core, his body shot upright from the bed. This was something only someone with extremely powerful core strength could accomplish. Yet for Andrew, it happened with nothing more than a thought. Even so, something felt off. He frowned and glanced down, checking his body. There was not a scratch on him. His muscles were not overly bulky but had the kind of sleek, sculpted beauty that hinted at explosive power hiding beneath the surface. Suddenly, a subtle tremor pulsed through his frame, and he knew that the second seal within his body had started to loosen again. If that night with Lauren, Francesca, and Aspen had triggered the first break in his martial seal, what happened last night had pushed it even further. Thinking back, it did not take much for Andrew to realize the likely cause was Chantelle.

Tiana made a sound of agreement, a flush rising to her face as she seemed to hesitate about saying something. Andrew raised his hand to stop her. "Mrs. Rhodes, you're now a married woman with a pair of lovely daughters. You'd better stop thinking about my father!" Embarrassed, Tiana replied, "Who said I was thinking about Reginald? I was just… wondering how he's been doing after all these years!" Andrew said expressionlessly, "I don't know how he's doing, but I can guarantee he's living more freely than anyone else. The last time I broke out of Chetvine, he video-called me from a luxury yacht hotel in Drubae, throwing a no-clothes party with some princess from Middle Veruin." Tiana snorted. "Typical. Some things never change. Even in exile, he still can't quit that disgusting habit." Andrew rolled his eyes. "Honestly? I've seen it so many times it barely fazes me. Last I heard, he's even trying to marry into Vestra's richest family. They offered him a huge sum… basically try

The office building Freya rented was located in the prime downtown district, and she had taken down all three floors of the entire building. When Andrew discovered that the rent was over a million, he immediately shook his head. "It's way too expensive!" Freya laughed dryly, "I think it's reasonable. It's 1.2 million a month, and once our company gets going, we'll definitely make more than that per month." Andrew was dumbfounded. "So your 1.2 million isn't for a year, but just for one month?" Freya looked confused. "What else would you think? Of course it's per month!" Andrew decided right then and there that this conversation was over. He deeply regretted coming to check out this so-called office space with her. This spoiled heiress was not starting a company but throwing money into the wind for fun. Sure, the location was nice, but before the company even started, the rent and other expenses could have bankrupted the business. Andrew was not short on cash, but he

Andrew immediately struck out, delivering two sharp slaps. He snapped, "You brain-dead moron, I don't care who you are! Royal Entertainment is just a second-rate entertainment company anyway!" He added, "And you? Even your father wouldn't have the right to run his mouth before me." Andrew was too lazy to waste words. When it was time to take action, he absolutely would not waste time talking. Dealing with the Ackermann brothers to Liliana, and now this clown Trent, he had come to realize that these spoiled heirs of Blumedale's elite had one thing in common—they lived in fantasy, completely detached from reality. If this had happened when Andrew was still keeping a low profile in Blumedale, Trent's behavior might have made sense. However, he was now the chairman of the Gabo Creek Chamber of Commerce and the champion of the Grand Medical Summit. With so many crowns on his head, there were still people who dared to swagger in front of him and act like he did not exist. Andrew

"Alright then, if that's all, you can leave now," Andrew said, casually waving Trent away. Trent bowed quickly and asked cautiously, "Mr. Lloyd, Freya mentioned you were introduced to her as a potential match earlier. I was just wondering if there's anything going on—" Andrew cut him off without hesitation. "Relax. There's nothing between us. If you want to win her over, that's on you. No one's competing." Trent beamed, grinning from ear to ear as he backed away and hurried off like a man who had just won the lottery. However, Freya looked at Andrew with a mocking smile. "Still the same as ever, huh? Afraid to get involved with us three sisters?" Andrew shrugged. "Hey, those were your words, not mine." Freya's tone was flat. "Don't worry, Andrew. I'm only here to talk business, not to cling to you." Andrew narrowed his eyes suddenly and lunged forward without warning. Freya, wearing a flowing chiffon dress, gasped as she was pinned to the floor, her soft body held firm

"Andrew, wait… is someone trying to kill you?" Freya's face turned ghostly pale, and her voice was shaky. She could barely get the words out. Andrew let her go and frowned. "You need to lose weight, Ms. Freya." Freya flared up. "Excuse me? Are you saying there's something wrong with my figure?" Andrew replied flatly, "It's not about looks. It's about the weight. If it had been someone else, they wouldn't have been able to carry you and run. They'd be dead already." Freya was livid. "You—" Andrew ignored her. He quickly headed down the fire escape with Freya in tow, pulling her into the shadows near the stairwell exit. From below, a series of whooshing sounds suddenly echoed upward. It sounded like something was moving at high speed through the air. Freya looked absolutely terrified and deeply unsettled. Meanwhile, Andrew remained expressionless, and when the wind pressure reached his ears at maximum intensity, he simply kicked out into thin air. A dull thud rang out, an

Andrew's punch landed squarely on Eagle Eye's chest. With just that single blow, he spat out a massive mouthful of blood, his face filled with terror. Eagle Eye's instincts told him that all the ribs on his left side had been completely shattered. However, that was not even the worst of it. He could feel that the organs beneath his ribs were hemorrhaging severely. That pain delivered one crystal-clear message—Andrew was way out of his league, and he had screwed up. Eagle Eye let out a fierce roar, spinning his knife in a defensive circle to block any possible attacks. Meanwhile, he shifted his weight, preparing to turn and flee. However, Andrew's figure merely flickered in front of him before vanishing like a phantom. When he reappeared, he was already behind Eagle Eye's back. At that moment, Eagle Eye had just started to turn his body around but had not even begun to build momentum for his escape. "I'm screwed!" he managed to squeeze out those words from his mouth. Th
