Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 1692

No matter the weather, training on the back lawn of Serenity Villa began like clockwork every morning before dawn. Even if it rained or the wind howled, Andrew never allowed a break.

The only exception was Lauren, who had been sidelined due to an injury. However, seeing her lounging around, grinning from ear to ear, Andrew casually remarked, "One more week tops, then you're joining in for beginner drills. Don't even think about making excuses. No one's getting special treatment."

Instantly, the beauty's smile froze. She huffed, "Honey, do you even realize how heartless you are? At this rate, the three of us are going to drain you dry!"

Andrew just chuckled at that comment. Through their recent intimate encounters, he had confirmed that merging spiritually and physically with the three women was beneficial for breaking through his sealed power.

However, he still had not figured out the exact reason behind this phenomenon.

Across the artificial lake, Joe stood there like a pole, showing up faithfully every single day.

At first, Andrew used to walk over every morning just to throw some verbal jabs his way. Joe would sneer and brush past him with a dramatic flick of his sleeve.

But over time, Joe stopped reacting.

No matter how Andrew mocked or provoked him, the guy just stood there and ignored him completely, like Andrew was invisible.

It ticked Andrew off. He did not want Joe leeching off his techniques. However, if the guy refused to leave, there was not much he could do about it since the space across the lake was technically Joe's turf.

Andrew approached The Sovereign Residences' management staff to negotiate, asking if they could buy out Joe's area.

The management staff immediately threw up their hands and said, "Mr. Lloyd, you're really putting us in a tough spot here! To be honest, every single person at The Sovereign Residences would rather jump off a building than deal with Mr. Driscoll!"

Andrew could only rub his forehead in frustration, knowing there was nothing else he could do.
