Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 1479

"If you trust him, you're just being used by him!" Quinton warned desperately.

Before Kevin could respond, Andrew shrugged casually. "If the Wrights still have doubts about me, then at worst, I'll just leave! But you can bet that Rafael and Mosby absolutely won't let this go. Kevin, it won't be easy for the Wrights to swallow this treasure whole!"

The sly grin on Andrew's face made Kevin's gut clench. That smile was not innocent—it was loaded with intent.

Laughing awkwardly, he quickly reassured Andrew, "Andy, don't overthink it. I definitely won't doubt you! Here's what we'll do—let's form an alliance. We explore the treasure together. When the time comes, we'll split it 80-20 between us!"

Andrew smiled. "Good, I'll take 80 and you take 20, Kevin— that sounds very reasonable!"

Kevin nearly choked, thinking, 'This guy has no shame! Who the hell said he was getting the 80?'

Kevin cleared his throat and corrected, "Andy, I think you misunderstood. I meant the Wrights get 80. You get 20."

Andrew silently scoffed. 'Typical Kevin—greedy to the core.'

Without hesitation, he shook his head in refusal. "No way, that distribution is far too unfair to me! If we split it like that, it would only prove that you don't consider me, Andrew, a real brother!"

Kevin instinctively wanted to scoff with contempt. Of course, he did not consider Andrew a real brother—this was just mutual exploitation, nothing more. Nonetheless, he certainly could not say that right now.

He frowned and said thoughtfully, "Come on, I'd never shortchange you. How about this—I'll go a bit lower. You get 30, the Wrights get 70. Fair?"

Andrew shook his head again. "Still unfair. Totally one-sided. You keep saying I'm your brother, but you clearly don't mean it. And if that's the case, I'll walk away from this whole thing. The Wrights can deal with Rafael on their own.

"Who knows, maybe that two-faced snake has already gotten the main Driscoll family involved! I don't think the Wrights can stand up against one of the Three Titans."
