Author: Only For You
Sofia came over with a second cup of tea, carefully saying, "Andy, try this one, I switched it to Earl Grey."

Andrew waved his hand. "Mrs. Garcia, I still think plain warm water is fine. Black tea's so strong on the stomach, and my system's always been a little sensitive."

Sofia gave an awkward laugh and nodded quickly. "Oh dear, how inconsiderate of me. Wait here, I'll bring you hot water instead."

By this point, Andrew had completely tamed her. She did not dare show even a hint of attitude.

Meanwhile, Cassandra watched as Carlos had been reduced to a complete joke, sitting there like a sidelined player. She felt it was unfair for her husband and could not help feeling frustrated.

Why should Chantelle get all the attention just because she brought a boyfriend home?

Even though they were sisters who should support each other, she still wanted to compete with Chantelle and prove that she, as the older sister, was the superior one.

Most importantly, she could not stand how

    The moment Andrew stepped out of Freddie's place, he disappeared into the night. He did not head back to the Garcia residence but instead wandered aimlessly, slipping into the darkest corners he could find. Soon enough, he heard rushing footsteps coming from behind, and from the sound of them, he knew it was not a small group. A cold smile curved on his lips as he kept walking, until finally, he darted into a narrow alley. The weather was against Andrew. Rain began to fall under a sky smothered by heavy black clouds, casting all of Terror Town in gloom. The streetlights in the alley flickered weakly, barely illuminating anything at all. After moving deeper in, Andrew finally stopped. Both ends of the alley were blocked. On his left stood a row of men in black trench coats, all wearing sunglasses despite the night, each holding a weapon case. Their presence was suffocating. On his right were only two figures. One was dressed in tight black combat gear, a pair of short blades str

    Freddie said, "Mr. Lloyd, I asked you to come over tonight because I wanted to tell you something! The assassins from Chetvine have joined forces with the Knowles family! "The Knowles family is responsible for providing information about your whereabouts! Meanwhile, the assassins from Chetvine are tasked with taking your life!" Andrew looked genuinely surprised. "Assassins from Chetvine? Well, it seems the news about my return to Chetvine has already reached those families! Good to know. Very timely indeed." Seeing that Andrew did not seem worried at all, Freddie's face showed a hint of admiration. "From the way you showed no respect to the Knowles family at the dinner party earlier, I could tell you're a man with backbone and pride. That's exactly why I wanted to meet with you privately tonight and share this information! "However, Mr. Lloyd, you can't afford to be careless! The Knowles family has even more influence in Terror Town than I do! While the Knowles family itself

    Andrew did not move at all. In his eyes, Freddie's movements could be described in one word: slow. Only at the last moment did Andrew finally act. He shifted his body sideways, dodging the kick. Then, he smashed forward like a charging bull. Freddie shot back like he weighed nothing, crashing hard into a steel equipment case. He hit the ground in a heap, coughing violently, his head spinning as he lay flat on his back. "Mr. Hawkins!" A dozen subordinates rushed in anxiously. The leader was a woman with hair pulled back in a high ponytail, her face cold as ice. She first helped Freddie to his feet, then turned to Andrew and said coldly, "Let me experience Mr. Lloyd's skills firsthand!" Andrew looked at her with surprise. "You're actually a high-level martial saint, just one step away from reaching martial emperor level! In terms of talent, you're even more gifted than Joe Driscoll and Eric Humphrey, whom I've encountered before. However, fighting me won't end well for you."

    Elijah had already taken the initiative to make peace and even came to toast Andrew. Yet, Andrew would not give him any face at all. After all, it was Elijah who had been slapped before, so if anyone should have been raising a glass, it should have been Andrew. However, this bastard was acting high and mighty, and Elijah could no longer hold back his fury. His outburst immediately drew the attention of the dozen or so other people at the table. All eyes turned to them with great interest. Freddie continued sipping his drink with a sly smile, looking like a cunning old fox. Andrew did not even glance at Elijah and said coldly, "Get lost. What makes you think you're worthy of drinking with me?" Elijah became even more furious. "Andrew, are you looking for death?" he snarled through gritted teeth, his rage causing wine to spill from his glass. Harold barked coldly, "Elijah, you're being disrespectful! How dare you speak like that in front of Mr. Lloyd?" He immediately st

    Night fell once again over the glittering Terror Town with its bright lights and vibrant nightlife. Andrew brought Chantelle to attend Freddie's dinner party. When they heard the couple was going to dine with the richest man in town, Patrick and Sofia were tempted to tag along. Chantelle simply said, "Dad, Mom, are you sure you want to come? Something might happen later, and if it's like last night, won't you be scared?" With that, Patrick and his wife immediately decided they would rather stay home and wait for Andrew and Chantelle to return. Chantelle covered her mouth and giggled. Then, she happily headed out with Andrew. When they arrived at the restaurant and Andrew identified himself, someone immediately escorted them inside with great respect. "Honey, this place is incredible! I heard Freddie spent a fortune building this place in Terror Town specifically for entertaining VIP guests," Chantelle said, leaning against Andrew while looking around in amazement. Andre

    If Andrew were still just the chairman of the Gabo Creek Chamber of Commerce, that title alone might not have been enough to make Freddie so proactive and enthusiastic. Nonetheless, Andrew was now the king of both the underworld and legitimate business in Gabo Creek. Perhaps that was the real reason behind Freddie's eager hospitality. … Terror Town had a famous landmark called the Knowles estate. In this prime real estate area where every inch was worth a fortune, an entire manor sprawled across the land. This was a direct display of the wealth and power of Elijah's family. "King of Gabo Creek… Yes, it's definitely him, no doubt about it," Harold Knowles, the head of the Knowles family, nodded as he looked at the documents in his hand. Beside him stood Elijah, his face full of indignation, along with several family enforcers who radiated powerful auras. One of the bearded enforcers growled, "Mr. Knowles Senior, so what if he's the King of Gabo Creek? It doesn't matter how s
