Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 1682

Calvin coughed violently a few times before finally stopping the blood from pouring out. He shouted, "Call it off! Everyone, back off! Get me home! Call the top docs from the Advanced Medical Institute! Now!"

His voice trembled with fear and frustration, and it was obvious that Andrew had scared the fight right out of him.

The Peck family quickly cleared the scene, retreating in a complete mess. Only Miles remained, staring at Andrew with a complicated expression.

He asked, "Mr. Lloyd, you've made your point loud and clear. May I at least take Liliana with me?"

Andrew's face was ice cold. "Take her. But next time, keep this dumb woman in check. If she dares mess with me again, I won't be this polite."

Miles bowed slightly, his tone respectful. "Mr. Lloyd, you have my word. There won't be a next time."

Liliana, still in Miles's arms, looked as pale as a ghost. She never imagined that her family, one of the Five Apex Families, would be completely crushed by Andrew.

Because of her, Caroline was crippled, and Calvin had practically coughed out his lungs.

"Times have changed."

She could not help but remember Andrew's earlier warning to Calvin. Miles also recalled those three words.

The era of dominance no longer belonged to the Five Apex Families. Instead, it belonged to Andrew now.

Caroline's spine was shattered, leaving her completely paralyzed. In the end, members of the Peck family dragged her away, but before she left, her vengeful glare was locked on Tiana the whole time.

Tiana scoffed without a shred of pity. "You old hag, what can you do about it?"

Caroline croaked hoarsely, "Tiana, don't get too cocky! You know she won't let you off the hook!"

Tiana's face darkened, and she stormed over to slap Caroline across the face several more times.

Right in front of the entire Peck family, she hit Caroline again and again. It was downright savage.

Andrew and the others just stood there, stunned by the scene.

Miles clenched his jaw and barked, "Let's go!"

As the tension faded, Gary and a few of the other privileged brats shuffled over to Andrew with trembling legs.

"Mr. Lloyd, we'll get out of your way too, alright?"
