Author: Only For You
Derek said coldly, "These elite families and old-money clans have been feasting off Blumedale like it's their private banquet. They think they can gorge themselves for life, rule without question, and remain unchallenged.

"But as long as I'm the one calling the shots in this province, they don't get to do as they please!"

Chantelle was startled. She had not expected Andrew to actually ignite Derek's fury. She silently cursed, 'This idiot is already useless on his own, and now even worse, he's using Mr. McCormick as his shield? It's despicable!'

Derek turned to Andrew. "Mr. Lloyd, don't worry. Those arrogant bastards—I'll handle them and make sure you get justice. But the reason I brought you here today is something more urgent. There's a matter I need your help with."

Andrew lifted a hand and said, "Mr. McCormick, say the word. If I can help, I will."

Derek nodded. "Here's the situation—an old friend of mine suddenly found himself fighting for his life. We've brought in nearly

    Their reunion after the long separation from Jayrodale reignited sparks neither had forgotten. Distance makes the heart grow fonder, and the body more desperate. As a result, Andrew held nothing back. Soon, the buxom beauty was gasping in familiar ecstasy. Whether for Andrew's convenience or her own whimsy, she had even tied her hair into two thick ponytails that now bounced tantalizingly with every movement. Andrew grabbed them and thought they made perfect handles. The whole experience felt even better. "Andrew… faster…" Francesca whimpered, eyes fluttering shut as waves of pleasure overtook her. Unlike Lauren's restrained passion or Aspen's bashful surrender, Francesca was fearless in bed, granting Andrew complete dominion over her curves. The quiet, bookish girl the world saw hid an unexpected vixen between the sheets. About 40 minutes later, the battle concluded with Francesca collapsing against him, her doll-like face flushed and smiling in exhausted satisfaction. "Do

    As Andrew entered the warm-lit room, a fragrant, towel-clad figure crashed into his arms. "Andrew, tonight… I'm taking what's mine," came the breathy whisper against his ear. Andrew turned around and grabbed Lauren by her slender waist. The usually composed seductress now trembled against him, her gaze shyly averted, cheeks burning crimson. This was it—the night she would surrender her virginity to him. "L-Let's… move to the bed first?" she stammered, fearing he might claim her right there against the door. Andrew chuckled. "Patience! Though I have to ask… How did you escape Mrs. Rhodes' watch tonight?" Lauren huffed. "Why? Don't you want me here?" Andrew's gaze softened as he took in her radiant, blushing face. "Of course, I do! I love having you here. But Mrs. Rhodes always feared leaving us alone together. Did you sneak over here tonight?" Lauren giggled mischievously, slipping free from Andrew's arms as she bounced onto the bed. She glared at him, pouting. "Mom's

    Aspen reminded softly, "Fran and Lauren are still waiting for us. They see me as one of their own now, and I can't just be selfish and keep you all to myself." Andrew raised a brow. "So, what you're saying is the three of you… against one of me?" Aspen's cheeks turned pink, but she smiled proudly. "That's right. What, Master—are you scared?" Andrew gave a slow, dangerous smile and leaned in close, his breath warm against her ear. "Tonight... I'm going to make you beg for mercy." The words struck like a jolt of electricity, making Aspen's whole body tingle. She trembled slightly, torn between embarrassment and the heat spreading through her. She had a masochistic tendency, and Andrew's darker, commanding tone was her weakness—it would only make her heart race faster. If he pressed just a little harder, she knew she would completely melt. Just as Andrew reached for his phone to call a ride, it buzzed—Lauren was already one step ahead. After a quick exchange of details, she a

    Andrew and Aspen walked out of the airport and made their way to the curb. Andrew glanced at the sky, realizing it was already 10.00 p.m. He suggested with a smile, "How about we take a walk?" Aspen bit her lip, cheeks slightly pink. "I don't mind." Their hands remained clasped the entire time, like a couple lost in the glow of new love. After a few minutes of strolling in silence, Andrew glanced at her and asked, "Your parents left. Are you going to miss them?" Aspen responded softly, her voice like a breeze. "Of course I will… How could I not? But I want to be with you even more." Warmth surged through Andrew's chest, and he tightened his grip on her hand, pulling her a little closer. He said, "Aspen, I heard most of what you said earlier. I never realized my little servant girl was bold enough to secretly fall in love with me." Aspen flushed scarlet and quickly shook her head. "Ugh, can we not bring that up again? I didn't mean to… It just happened, okay? And now tha

    Zephyr's face turned red with fury. "Aspen—" Esther stepped in quickly. "Zephyr, that's enough. Let it go. Aspen's our daughter. I understand her, and I understand her feelings. Think about it—men like Andrew? How many girls in this world could actually resist someone like that?" Zephyr sighed and nodded. "You're right. No ordinary woman can walk away from a man like him. Aspen, we won't force you anymore. If you truly want to stay with him, then stay. All we ask is that you take care of yourself." Aspen broke into a tearful smile, the joy on her face was obvious even as tears spilled down her cheeks. "Thank you, Dad. Thank you, Mom, for understanding me. I know I'm being an ungrateful daughter for not going back to Bridgefields with you… "But I really, really like Andrew and I've never felt this way about anyone in my life. If I leave him… I don't know if he'd be sad, but I know I'd be devastated. I'm sorry—I have to go back to him." Zephyr and Esther stood there, faces full

    Just as Andrew got into the car, his phone rang—it was Francesca. He chuckled and said, "Fran, I'm on my way back now!" To his surprise, Francesca sounded frantic. "Andrew, no! Don't come back—whatever you do, don't come back right now!" Andrew was confused. "Don't come back? Then where am I supposed to go?" Francesca said urgently, "Aspen left. She's following her parents back to Bridgefields!" Andrew's face darkened instantly. "When did she leave?" Francesca shouted, "Just now! You can still catch her if you hurry to the airport! Mr. Stevens was the one who dragged her out—he forced her to go!" Andrew let out a low, sharp breath. "Got it. I'm going to the airport right now!" He hung up and immediately told the driver to turn around and head straight to Blumedale Airport. The driver groaned. "Sir, are you trying to make my life hell? The airport's a nightmare this time of day—traffic's brutal!" Without a word, Andrew opened his phone and transferred a solid 10,000 do
