Chapter 861

Andrew was not in a hurry. Before heading to Rhodes Corporation, he made a quick stop at Natasha's place. Just in time, he caught sight of Aspen changing into a training outfit. Her toned figure and long, straight legs were stretched taut as she trained. The moment Aspen saw Andrew, her attacks on the training dummy became even fiercer. First came the elbow strike and sweeping kick, then a relentless barrage of punches straight to the dummy's face! "Take this! And this!" Aspen shouted, her fists slamming into the dummy over and over again. It was obvious that she was imagining the dummy as Andrew. Natasha strolled over with a smirk and said, "She's certainly training hard, darling, but let me remind you—women can be the definition of ruthless." She continued, "Take Aspen, for example, or the heiress of the Bridgefields' Stevens family. The more you crush her, the more she'll hate you. Hatred fuels ambition. If she ever grows strong enough, she might just turn against you." A

Andrew chuckled, finding her words utterly lame. "You always say that, but you don't even know when 'someday' will be, do you?" Aspen froze, her face flushing red. Of course, she refused to admit defeat out loud, but deep down, she was suffocating with the realization that there might never be a 'someday'. Even if there was, she could not see a single shred of hope that she would ever turn the tables on Andrew. Right now, his power was so overwhelming that it seemed impossible for her to reach the same level. Moreover, it was not just his insane combat skills—it was the way he toyed with people, the way he always had control, that truly made her shudder. Andrew's smile faded, and his tone turned serious. "You're familiar with Blumedale, right?" Aspen was caught off guard but reluctantly answered, "Bridgefields is right next to Blumedale. I basically grew up there, so yeah, I know it well." Andrew nodded. "Good. Pack up—you're heading there soon." Aspen's eyes widened. "You'

Aspen clenched her teeth, fury blazing in her eyes as her chest rose and fell with anger. She thought, 'This bastard is despicable, ruthless, and downright vile. I can't believe he actually has the audacity to talk about digging up my family's graves!' She silently cursed at Andrew for being inhuman, scolding him a thousand times in her head. Nonetheless, all that came out of her mouth was a deflated sigh. "Relax. With my skills and connections in Blumedale, I'll have your company up and running in no time." She added, "But here's a piece of advice—money doesn't mean you can do whatever you want. The Driscoll family and the Golding family aren't just some random nobodies. You're just a big shot in Jayrodale, but in Blumedale, you're nothing more than a small-time boss. "If the Driscoll family or any of those powerful clans take an interest in you... Not only will you lose your people, but your money might vanish into thin air too." Aspen smirked as she said it. It was as if she

Andrew left West End and drove straight to Rhodes Corporation. By the time he arrived, Tiana had already gathered all the company's top executives in the main conference room. As soon as Andrew stepped in, Tiana took the lead in applauding with a bright smile. "There's our hero, the savior of Rhodes Corporation—Mr. Andrew Lloyd!" Applause rang out in the room. Marcus, his people, Lauren, and Tiana's assistant, Eunice, clapped the loudest. Michael and his faction, however, only gave a few half-hearted claps, their expressions far from pleasant. Andrew took a seat and spoke casually. "Hero? Hardly, Mrs. Rhodes. After everything I've done for Rhodes Corporation, I think you already know my intentions." Tiana smiled. "Mr. Lloyd, don't be so formal. You're part of this company, and helping Rhodes Corporation is really just helping yourself, isn't it?" Andrew cut straight to the point. "Not at all. If it weren't for Lauren, I wouldn't have batted an eye even if Rhodes Corporation

Eunice smiled reassuringly and said, "Ms. Rhodes, don't worry—the CEO position is yours for sure!" Marcus nodded in agreement. "That's right, Ms. Rhodes. We all saw the effort you put in. As per our original agreement, you and Mr. Lloyd were the ones who saved the Pharmaceutical Division. So, if anyone deserves to be CEO, it's you." Despite their confidence, Lauren still felt a knot of anxiety in her chest. She did not care about the title of CEO; what mattered was that if she became the CEO, she could stay in Jayrodale and take control of Rhodes Corporation. In other words, she could escape being used as a pawn in her family's arranged marriage plans; she would not have to be shipped off to marry into the Driscoll family in Blumedale. Lauren made up her mind, thinking, 'As long as I can avoid marrying into the Driscoll family, I'll give myself to Dr. Lloyd. From now on, I'll belong to him alone.' Tiana's gaze slowly swept across the entire conference room. Finally, her eyes

"I don't think you all understand the situation yet," Michael said smugly. "Right now, our Pharmaceutical Division's products are blowing up again—this time, even bigger than before!" Tiana nodded in agreement. "That's right. The latest sales reports for Michael's three products just came in. In just one week, revenue exceeded 100 million dollars. That's why, as per our agreement, I awarded him the CEO position." She glanced at Lauren and added, "So, this isn't unfair to you. He truly outperformed your products." Several department heads gasped when they heard the amount, their faces filled with disbelief as they turned to Michael. "Mr. Rhodes, you actually pulled off a record-breaking achievement in the Pharmaceutical Division?" "With 100 million in a week… that's at least 400 million a month! Goodness, the division's success is reaching levels comparable to the most profitable companies in the world!" "Looking at these numbers, it's hard to argue. Ms. Rhodes really did lo

Michael's expression darkened as he snapped, "What's this, Andrew? Can't handle losing?" Andrew glanced at him like he was looking at a corpse. "The one who can't handle it is you, idiot." With a slight motion of his hand, Marcus immediately stepped forward and handed him a stack of documents. "This is the real financial report for the Pharmaceutical Division," Andrew declared. "Mrs. Rhodes, gentlemen—open your eyes and take a good look!" He tossed the files onto the conference table with a loud slap. Tiana let out a cold chuckle. "More theatrics?" She grabbed a report and flipped it open. The moment she read it, her expression completely changed. Michael scoffed and took a copy for himself. A second later, his smug face twisted in shock. "H-How is this possible? No! Andrew, this has to be fake! There's no way this is real!" The other executives immediately sensed that something was off. One after another, they snatched up the reports and started reading. Within sec

Andrew explained, "Michael's so-called 'miracle products' are like a homeless man under a bridge in Jayrodale—his pockets hold barely a few bucks, yet he thinks he's a billionaire. "But my two products? The revenue they generated is like Marvin's wealth—dominating, undeniable, and known across the financial world. And when you put these two together—one beggar, one tycoon—you get Michael's financial report. "It looks impressive, but in reality, his part in it is just a couple of crumpled bills. Yet here he is, strutting around like his products are a massive hit, completely unaware that he's just riding on the success of my products to put on this ridiculous show." The room erupted into laughter. Even Lauren, whose mood had been at rock bottom, could not help but giggle at Andrew's sharp wit. Michael's face darkened with rage, his eyes burning with fury. "Andrew, you always have some smartass comeback! Then tell me—how do you know that your so-called miracle drugs aren't the

Tiana's expression remained cold as she gritted her teeth, saying nothing. She was completely cornered. Michael roared, "Andrew, are you deaf? Didn't you hear Aunt Tiana already announce me as the new CEO?" Andrew let out a mocking laugh. "Michael, it's broad daylight, and you're already dreaming. Do your parents know about this delusion? Besides, what makes you think you deserve to be CEO? You lost the bet. "You pranced around in lingerie, pretending to be some kind of drag queen, and that humiliating video is still making rounds on the internet. Doesn't anyone think it would be a huge embarrassment for Rhodes Corporation to have someone like that as its CEO?" Marcus was the first to step up. "That's right. From every perspective, Ms. Rhodes is the rightful CEO." Another executive spoke up. "Mrs. Rhodes, Mr. Lloyd and Ms. Rhodes have done too much for this company. You must handle this fairly." "Mrs. Rhodes, we fully support Ms. Rhodes and Mr. Lloyd—please do the right thi

Seeing Lauren in Andrew's arms, crying tears of joy—watching as everyone rushed forward to congratulate them—Michael knew it was over, and the tide had turned against him. However, he had not lost yet because he had prepared a backup plan long ago. If he could not win fair and square, he would take power by force. "Mr. Rhodes, what the hell are you doing?" "Did you just say you'll kill anyone who moves? What a joke." "You can't win, so now you're throwing a tantrum? Mr. Rhodes, I never thought you'd stoop this low." Disgusted by Michael's behavior, several senior executives finally spoke up, openly reprimanding him. Lauren stepped out of Andrew's embrace, her voice sharp. "Michael, I strongly suggest you don't do something stupid." Michael's face twisted with pure hatred. He pointed a shaking finger first at Lauren, then at Andrew. "You two… you two bastards," he snarled. "I swear, I've wanted to get rid of you for so long. Everything… everything is because of you! Andr
