Chapter 1165
Author: Only For You
Aspen's face burned crimson as she instinctively crossed her arms over her chest. Damn it—her habit of going braless after showers had become second nature, and Andrew had seen her in this state.

Humiliated, she spat, "Fine! Since my kindness is wasted on you, I'm going to bed!"

She turned to stomp upstairs in a huff. However, Andrew suddenly sprang from his chair and tackled her to the ground. His arm locked around her slender waist as they rolled across the floor.

Aspen's shock quickly turned to fury, wondering what the hell this bastard was doing.

Was he actually trying to take advantage of her in the dark?

She silently cursed herself for being dumb and wandered around practically naked in front of this pervert. She was basically giving him a chance to pounce at her.

Just as she began struggling in earnest, Andrew's growl cut through the night. "Stop moving unless you want to die!"

The next moment, a hail of gunfire erupted, muzzle flashes lighting up the darkness as b

    Walter narrowed his eyes and hissed in that sharp, nasal voice of his, "Whoever it was… they're dead." Suddenly, Andrew's image popped into his mind. However, he gave a dismissive shake of his head and scoffed. "That little bastard? Nah. No way he could've taken out Goldfangs. If someone really did it, then it had to be someone else. Maybe someone from the Keller family, or one of Derek's elite guards." Nonetheless, guessing did not matter anymore. Walter ordered his men to bury the body right there on the spot. Then, without saying another word, he climbed back into the SUV and returned to the Driscoll residence with his crew. After a moment of hesitation, he gritted his teeth and decided to face the music. He was going to see Maurice, even this late at night. "Sir," Walter reported, head bowed, "the two assassins I sent after that brat are dead." Maurice sat under the harsh overhead lights, the black mark covering half his face exposed in full view, making him look eve

    As expected, the fighting and gunshots drew a crowd. The Charm Restaurant manager rushed over with Christina and several other staff members. Lauren, Francesca, and Aspen also accompanied them. In front of the three women was Shiloh, who said casually, "I told you all Andrew would be fine. Guess I was right!" The three women were still shaken. "Honey, where's the assassin?" Andrew glanced casually over his shoulder. "He's lying in there. Probably halfway to his next life by now." The restaurant manager was a short, chubby man. Drenched in cold sweat, he said nervously, "Mr. Lloyd, if something had happened to you, we'd all be finished!" Andrew rolled his eyes. "Don't jinx me like that. Anyway, don't make too big a scene and have Rachel send someone over to clean up the body." The manager nodded nonstop. "Yes, yes, I've already contacted her!" Andrew casually tossed the gold-plated Desert Eagle toward him. "The restroom's kind of a mess now. This should cover the damag

    The triple-edged dagger gleamed with wicked barbs and backward hooks, and grabbing it barehanded was practically asking to be shredded. Yet, no matter how hard Goldfangs pulled or twisted, Andrew's grip did not budge. His hands were like iron clamps, completely unshakable. "You've tempered your body to this level? Invincible skin? That's impossible!" Goldfangs shouted in disbelief, his face twisted with shock. Andrew gave his wrists a sharp twist, and Goldfangs was yanked into a spin like a ragdoll caught in a tornado. Then, came a brutal kick straight to the chest. The impact sent Goldfangs flying, blood spurting from his mouth, and something in his spine cracked with a sickening pop. Panic set in instantly as he realized this was not about Eagle Eye being weak. In truth, their target was just terrifying. In that instant, Goldfangs understood that this Andrew was completely untouchable. Probably only Walter, that ruthless bastard, would be capable of taking down someo

    This shot came lightning-fast and vicious. If it had been an ordinary expert, they would have been finished on the spot. However, Andrew was not just any ordinary expert; he was extraordinary. In a split second, he tilted his head to the side and dodged the deadly bullet. With a loud crash, a urinal's water pipe exploded from the impact. Amid the spray of water, Andrew suddenly vanished. When he reappeared, he was right in front of Goldfangs' face. He raised his hand and reached for the assassin's throat. Goldfangs quickly stepped back and retreated, laughing, "Well, well, pretty quick reflexes. No wonder Eagle Eye fell for your tricks." A rapid burst of gunfire erupted, decisive and ruthless. Unfortunately, all the shots hit the ceiling instead of their target. Goldfangs had gotten too close to Andrew when he drew his weapon. Since he did not have enough distance to shoot properly, Andrew grabbed his gun hand and shoved it upward. This caused the barrel to point strai

    Shiloh gave Andrew a discreet thumbs up. "Andrew, you're really something now!" Andrew smiled faintly but didn't say anything in response. Aspen turned to glance at Christina hurrying away, biting her lip as a complex expression flickered through her eyes. Lauren chuckled softly, "What's wrong, Aspen? Feeling sorry for her?" Aspen shook her head with a forced smile. "I'm pretty ruthless. I don't have room for sympathy. I just never expected she'd actually start from the bottom as a server and work her way up step by step." Francesca suggested gently, "Aspen, maybe you should go talk to Ms. Christina privately? After all, you two were once like sisters!" Aspen hesitated for a moment before declining, "No, I'd better not go over there. If I do, I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself and might remember what happened back then and say something cruel to her."' The food arrived, and everyone began eating. Shiloh ate incredibly fast but maintained perfect table manner

    Andrew arrived with Shiloh, Francesca, and Lauren at the Charm Restaurant at 8:00 p.m. sharp. There, they selected the best window seats and settled in comfortably. This restaurant was Rachel's enterprise, and the billionaire mogul had practically monopolized all the upscale dining establishments throughout Blumedale. After they sat down, Lauren smiled and said, "Shiloh, we'll wait just a bit. Aspen should be here any minute!" Shiloh grinned back. "No problem, I don't mind waiting at all!" She looked around with wide-eyed curiosity, taking in every detail. "I have to say, Blumedale is really something else. It's so much more bustling than Jayrodale!" Lauren shook her head in amazement, "I still can't believe Shiloh is actually hundreds of years old." The moment the words left her mouth, she clapped her hand over it and looked apologetically at Shiloh. Shiloh waved dismissively, "It's fine, really. I am hundreds of years old!" She sighed dramatically, "But what good
