Author: Only For You
Christina gritted her teeth, refusing to say a word. She hated the idea that anyone could think she was beneath Andrew. Deep down, there was a dark, bitter part of her that would never accept that he was doing better than her.

After all, admitting it would mean that leaving him had been a monumental mistake—one of the dumbest decisions she had ever made.

Christina was too proud to ever acknowledge that. Even if she said it out loud, she would never truly believe it in her heart.

Tiana scoffed. "Forget it. I only said all that because I found you incredibly irritating. But I'm actually here for Aspen."

As she spoke, her icy gaze shifted to Aspen.

Aspen, already trembling, started shaking even harder. She stammered, "M-Mrs. Rhodes, what can I do for you?"

Tiana took two slow steps forward, her smile sharp and merciless. "I never expected the Stevens family to produce someone like you, nor did I think Zephyr would raise such a thieving daughter!"

Aspen swallowed her anger an

    Andrew showed no surprise at all. "I could tell that Knox is a top-tier martial god, but he gives me a strange feeling."Knox smirked. "Of course! While I'm at the martial god level, I lack the bite. My actual combat power is ranked dead last in Dragonfang, trash tier."Andrew looked puzzled, so Franz explained, "Knox’s situation is unusual. He truly is a martial god, and his level is even higher than Nyx’s. However, his power could not be used offensively; it could only be used to save people. That's why his nickname is Ambulance. Reginald had been trying to fix that. Come on, it's time to move." He added, "Before we leave, I need to confirm one more time. Andrew, are you really going to participate in this operation?"Andrew smiled. "Mr. Hearst, you made it sound like I have a choice. By the way, where's my father?"Franz replied, "He went to meet with the werewolf clan's lord, Mr. Viktor Kessler. The situation in the Outlands has been very chaotic lately, and the Deadlands is

    Under the bright moonlight, a black figure sat alone on the rooftop of the small building.The black robe she usually wore when going out had been removed. Tonight, she wore a black dress.The pure moonlight illuminated her perfect face, making her look like a descending angel. Her deep blue eyes often revealed anger, sorrow, and confusion. It was Nyx!At this moment, she was listening to the people from the Dragonfang below in the small building as they drank and chatted with Andrew and Reginald. She was the only one who had not joined in. She heard Andrew asking where she was and why she was not joining them. Then, Franz said with a bitter smile that no one could convince Nyx to join. In the end, the thoughtful Reginald had Juno Mooney bring food up to the rooftop for her. Looking at the pastries in front of her, bought especially for her alone, Nyx unconsciously clenched her delicate fingers. In her mind, Reginald was amazing, but Andrew was just terrible.Andrew made Ny

    Andrew laughed heartily. For once, he looked a bit embarrassed. "Actually, he really didn't need to go to all this trouble."Franz waved his hand. "Andrew, Reginald has been drifting overseas all these years. There's much I won't tell you, as I'm afraid he'll blame me. But he has gotten old. You understand what I mean… Not that he's aged in years, but he has been through too much and has weathered too many storms."He added, "Right now, you're the only family he has left in this world. You might laugh at me, but I've never seen Reginald as happy as he is today, not in all these recent years."At these words, Andrew fell silent.The other Dragonfang members all turned to look at him, their eyes showing different expressions. Some were complicated, some cold, and some openly hostile.Franz said with a bitter smile, "They've all been loyal, following Reginald for years, including Nyx. Andrew, I hope you understand that while their attitude toward you isn't great, these people all hav

    Under Nyx's guidance, Andrew had no idea how many detours they took. Finally, after another half day, they entered a special location.It was a small, inconspicuous building hidden within a village.Looking at the building before him, Andrew nodded. Hiding in plain sight was usually the safest option. Reginald and his people chose this as their base in foreign lands, and it proved to be a good choice.It was already dusk, and smoke rose from cooking fires throughout the village. The setting sun in the distance painted the rows of trees at the village's edge red, creating a pleasant scene that calmed one's restless heart.Nyx did not push the door to enter the building. Instead, she turned and walked in another direction, saying flatly without looking back, "Mr. Lloyd Senior is waiting for you inside. Go in on your own."Andrew smiled and suddenly said, "Hey, thanks."Nyx said nothing and had already walked away.Andrew pushed the door open and entered. There, he saw several peop

    Though resentful, Vincenzo was also filled with fear for Andrew. Thus, he scrambled away immediately.A cold glint flashed in Andrew's eyes, but ultimately, he did not kill Vincenzo. However, coming all the way to this place only to still hear the name Ludendorff family really pissed him off.He untied the ropes and said to the slaves, "You're free now. Go, get as far away as you can and don't come back."The women and children cried tears of gratitude, thanking him repeatedly before disappearing into the marketplace. Several pairs of eyes around them were discreetly sizing up Andrew before quickly leaving.Andrew remained unmoved and even sneered dismissively. These vultures would definitely run straight to Abyss City to report this. Being a lackey for the Ludendorff family was something many people dreamed of. Nyx returned and said coldly, "What's the point of doing these useless things?"Andrew said irritably, "Since ancient times, the greatest heroes serve their country and

    Andrew scoffed. "You're overthinking this. I don't need your loyalty."Nyx's chest rose and fell sharply, and she said, "The way you talk is extremely dangerous, believe me. At this distance, killing you would be as easy as swatting a mosquito. But I won't."However, I can beat you up, knock your teeth out, and have you crawling on the ground looking for them. And if that happens, I really wonder what face you would have left to keep acting arrogant in front of me. In the end, all your glory and reckless behavior exist only because of Mr. Lloyd Senior. Without him, you are nothing."Andrew tightened his grip on the greatsword beside him and said flatly, "So what? Do you feel like testing me right now? I'm not trying to prove how badass I am in your eyes. I just want to tell you that as a woman, you should stop being so damn loud. Your loyalty to my father has nothing to do with me. It doesn't mean you can spout nonsense in front of me."A bone-chilling coldness suddenly erupted fro
