Chapter 59 Francesca fumed in embarrassment .

Andrew , youre such a jerk ! Andrew gave her a knowing smirk .

Am I wrong ? Are you saying you dont want a man ? Francescas face turned crimson as she snapped , All men are disgusting ! I hate them ! How could you even suggest that ? Andrew just chuckled and gave her a sly look , making her face burn hotter .

mand Francesca sneered .

Even if I want to find a man , Id never go for a gold digger like you ! Andrew replied casually , Good to know youre not interested because I wouldnt want you either .

Francesca hissed , Dont be so cocky ! Ill make sure Lauren sees your true colors and kicks you to the curb ! Suddenly , an unmarked van came roaring toward them .

Francesca barely avoided being hit , shouting , Watch where youre driving , you idiots ! The van screeched to a halt , and several masked thugs jumped out , wielding baseball bats and knives .

Francescas voice trembled as she stammered , W What do you think youre doing ? This is the Moonlit Sanctuary ! I can call security right now ! The thugs shoved her aside .

Get lost ! Were not here for you ! They surrounded Andrew quickly and said , Kid , Mr.

Rhodes sent us to teach you a lesson .

Sorry , but business is business ! Francesca immediately understood what was going on Michael was getting his revenge on Andrew .

She thought this guys luck was terrible , having just dealt with Dylan from South City and now this .

After a moments hesitation , she stepped in front of Andrew and shouted , Im from the Aicker family ! You cant touch him ! 1 The masked men laughed mockingly .

Who cares about the Aicker family ? Were here for someone else , and the Aickers can do nothing about it ! Francesca paled , realizing that even the Aicker name would not stop these men .

To make things worse , their masks meant they could do serious harm without fear of identification .

Andrew stated calmly .
