Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 1675

Liliana panicked, her voice sharp and frantic. "Somebody! Somebody get in here! Kick these bastards out right now!"

This was the Peck family's turf, and Caroline was known for housing some seriously ruthless muscle.

Yet, despite all her screaming, no one showed up.

Andrew's eyes glinted with icy contempt as he stared her down. "Stop yelling. Every one of your precious Peck family guards is either dead or knocked out."

Liliana's face drained of color. "No… That's impossible. There's no way you could've gotten in here!"

Aspen and Francesca, burning with fury, stormed forward and started beating her without hesitation. Seeing their best friend lying bloodied and broken on the ground, the two women lost all sense of restraint.

Andrew, barely holding back the urge to slaughter the entire Peck household, ran over and scooped Lauren into his arms. He checked her injuries and quickly slipped a healing capsule between her lips.

However, his heart sank when he noticed that her lower spine had been shattered by that vicious kick.

Sure, Andrew could heal her completely, but the sheer pain she had endured had already ignited a wildfire in his chest.

"Honey… you came," Lauren whispered through shallow breaths. "I knew you'd come for me. That's why I wasn't afraid."

She smiled faintly, her whole body finally relaxing as she rested in his arms.

"Yes, I'm here. Lauren, just sleep for now."

Watching her fight to stay awake broke his heart all over again. He gently pressed a point on the back of her neck, putting her into a peaceful sleep.

"Fran, Aspen, take her home now," he said in a voice devoid of warmth.

Francesca trembled as she accepted Lauren from his arms. "Don't worry… We'll take care of her. But what about you? Aren't you coming with us?"

Andrew grimaced. "Not yet."

He turned to the side and said, "Natasha, please bring Ms. Peck over."

He dragged out the word 'please' with venom.

Natasha smiled wickedly and walked over, grabbing Liliana by the hair and dragging her across the floor mercilessly.

Liliana let out a bloodcurdling scream. "What are you doing? Let me go! Unhand me right now! Andrew, you piece of shit! If you lay a hand on me, my dad, my aunt, and the entire Peck family will destroy you!"

Andrew casually leaned back as Dylan brought him a chair. "Start."
