Chapter 21

Author: Only For You
Andrew was nowhere to be seen as Christina looked around.

"Since you're not involved in this, get lost, you coward," Baldy snarled, kicking Shawn aside before turning his attention to Christina. "Ms. Stevens, Mr. Garner has his eye on that property. You're coming with us to sign it over."

Shawn crawled away, groveling, "Thank you for your mercy. Thank you, Mr. Garner, for sparing me."

Internally, he cursed his terrible luck. Jayrodale's four districts were each controlled by a ruthless crime lord. Dylan was the crime lord of the southern area, with hundreds of loyal thugs at his command. The Fields family was insignificant in comparison.

"Shawn, they're taking Christie! Do something!" Irene pleaded desperately.

Leroy joined in, begging, "Shawn, I know you can figure this out. You're the Fields family heir. Don't you have connections?"

Shawn's face darkened as he replied, "I can't do anything. When Mr. Garner wants something, you'd better hand it over."

  • Rising from the Ashes   Chapter 2736

    The next day, the construction project kicked off in full force, and everything moved fast. Aspen, Rowan, and Natasha had changed into lightweight gear for the site, and all three wore hard hats and fitted utility pants as they directed the workers.The crew in charge belonged to the largest construction company in Chetvine, known for its top-tier workmanship and pricing. However, the moment they arrived at the Lloyd family estate, they practically tucked their tails between their legs and smiled nonstop. They even said the price was negotiable and that if needed, they could throw in an extra unit for free.Andrew waved a hand and asked, "Do I look like the kind of guy who extorts people?"The foreman immediately laughed awkwardly and shook his head, apologizing over and over. It was obvious that Aspen and the other ladies were taking the house-building project extremely seriously. At some point, Donovan strolled over to Andrew.Andrew stood straight. "Patriarch Donovan."Donova

    Aspen said thoughtfully, "Honey, you're the head of our family now. Patriarch Donovan came by today and had a talk with us. He said that in the future, the Lloyd family will be handed over to you. Of course, that'll still be at least 10 years from now. He's not dying anytime soon and can still hold the fort for you."She continued, "But before that day comes, you need to learn how to run a family. First, you need to learn how to run a family. Second, you need to manage the household affairs. "We're all your wives, so we're supposed to listen to you and take care of you because a big family needs rules and structure. If we let you do all the hard labor yourself, then where would your authority as the head of the household even be?"Natasha picked up the conversation. "Honey, just rest and leave it to us. Oh, and you don't need to pay a single cent for building the house. Earlier today, we already had a video call with Fran, Lauren, and Chantelle, and we all agreed everyone would spl

    When Andrew got home, he saw Aspen rushing around the living room, busy with something. He walked over and asked, "What are you doing? Are we having guests?"Aspen was dragging a chair across the floor. Without even looking up, she replied, "Honey, you smell familiar. It's really faint, not perfume, but it's definitely a woman's scent. Uh, I remember now… It's Ms. Phelan's scent. What did you two do?"A chill ran down Andrew's spine because Aspen had picked it up immediately. Then again, this was not the first time. She always had a freakishly sharp nose, and he was convinced her sense of smell was basically supernatural."Don't worry about what I did," he said, changing the subject. "Why are you moving all this stuff?" Aspen wiped her sweat and said cheerfully, "Building a house! You weren't here today, but Patriarch Donovan came by. Sheena was here too. They said they want to build you a big house. Of course, they need your approval first. They said this place is the ancestral h

    Luna stayed asleep all the way until evening. Even in her sleep, there was a small, satisfied smile tugging at the corner of her lips.When Andrew looked at her, he thought that she did not look like a major in the military at all. Instead, she looked more like a sweet, innocent high school girl.He adjusted her arm, pulled the blanket over her, and quietly got up to get dressed before slipping out of the office. When he opened the door, he stepped onto the balcony outside her office and happened to catch the sunset burning red across the sky.As Andrew stared at the gorgeous evening glow stretching across the horizon, he suddenly felt a wave of peace and contentment wash through him. It felt like, for the first time in a long while, his life was complete.He had not really rested in weeks. First, he founded Medicine God's Covenant, then he rushed straight to the Advanced Medical Institute, and everything in between had been hectic.Smiling, Andrew headed downstairs, ready to go h

    Their first time together lasted a full hour. Even though they were both top-tier martial artists in peak physical condition, Luna still felt her legs go weak, and her whole body grew drowsy and slick with sweat."I never imagined that…" she murmured, curled up on the couch with her head resting on Andrew's chest, her voice tired but filled with deep satisfaction.Andrew, feeling a bit weary himself, kissed her earlobe and asked, "Didn't expect what?"Luna shyly replied, "That I would initiate something like this. And that it would happen in my office. Andrew, does this mean we belong to each other now?"Andrew thought, 'Here it comes.'A woman like Luna could not have a casual fling. Fortunately, his intentions were not just for fun either."Luna, from now on, be my woman," he said, lifting her chin and speaking seriously.A look of slight confusion and daze lingered in Luna's eyes for a long moment before she finally let out a soft "Mmm," sounding both excited and shy.Andrew

    Andrew said, "I'm going to take you!"Luna's beautiful eyes flew wide open, filled with utter disbelief. She then felt Andrew biting her neck, and his arms wrapped tightly around her entire body."Andrew, don't… Please don't…" she pleaded, her panic slowly giving way to soft, suppressed moans.His large hand had already moved to cup her chest, beginning its bold exploration. Then, his mouth captured her soft lips in a forceful, sucking kiss.Luna's eyes remained wide, her mind a complete blank. At first, she was just clumsy and passive, simply enduring his attack. Gradually, her body temperature rose, her neck growing hot. She began to hesitantly return his kisses, soft, bone-melting sighs escaping her nose.Andrew's greedy kissing made Luna feel like she was suffocating. When he finally pulled away, she gasped for air, feeling both ashamed and a strange, indescribable sensation.It was then that she felt something hard pressing against a certain part of her body.Luna was naive
