Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 1742

Andrew smiled mysteriously, keeping things vague as he said, "I can't reveal too much! I can only say that you're very lucky! You just dodged a bullet! Everyone always thinks my backing comes from the Keller family or Governor McCormick.

"But actually, those are just part of it! The beautiful and gentle Victoria is my biggest support! She's the one who sent me to find you, saying you've got a big temper and love to show off. But as long as I mention her name, you'll obediently listen! And if you don't listen, then I'll go back and tell her, and she'll pay you a personal visit."

Ronald flashed a wry smile. "Why didn't you say earlier that you and Mrs. Peck have that kind of relationship? She's someone I have complete respect for. Since she sent you here, then whatever it is, I'll handle it perfectly for you, how about that?"

His attitude had completely flipped 180 degrees from before.

Andrew found it amusing and somewhat surprising.

Victoria's reputation apparently carried serious weight in the underworld, too. He had just mentioned her name casually to test Ronald's attitude. He never expected the guy to react like a mouse meeting a cat, practically ready to get on his knees.

Meanwhile, Ronald's other men had all tucked their tails between their legs, their faces turning respectful. Without a doubt, they had all suffered at Victoria's hands before.

This made Andrew's task much simpler.

He got straight to the point and said, "I'm planning to destroy Marcelo, the Azure Dragon King. At the very least, I want to seriously hurt him. Are you interested?"

As soon as he said this, Ronald's brow furrowed deeply. "Don't try to trap me! Marcelo is also an underworld Dragon King in Blumedale. You came to me just to get me to help you fight him?"

He huffed and added, "If that's the case, then sorry, I can't help you!"

Andrew asked, "What if I bring in some other people? Would you have the guts and courage to get involved?"
