Leroy sneered. “Andrew, you and Christie had a history. Back when you were struggling, she was the one who helped you! Now that you’re successful, it’s only right that you repay her. If you refuse, then you’re just an ungrateful traitor–and trust me, if you don’t cooperate, I make sure you’re ruined!”

Andrew’s eyes turned ice–cold as he let out a sharp, mocking laugh. “Christina helped me when I was at my lowest? Leroy, the Stevens family really has no shame, hul When I was living under your roof, did I ever take a dime from you? Did I ever owe you anything?

“If anything, it was you–and your greedy, money–grubbing mother–who kept taking from me, milking me for every cent you could get.”

Ignoring how Irene and Leroy’s faces darkened, Andrew turned to Christina and scoffed. “And you, Christina- what is it? Now that I have everything, you think you can just swoop in and claim a piece of it?”

Christina opened her mouth, struggling to explain. “I–I’m not the kind of person you think I am, Andrew. I just feel guilty about the past, and I want to make it up to you. I want you to come back to the Stevens family so I can fix what I did wrong!”

Andrew waved her off dismissively. “Save it. I don’t want anything from you, Christina–not now, not ever.”

Christina’s voice rose in frustration. “So that’s it, huh? Now that you have Lauren and Francesca, you just think they’re better than me?”

Andrew’s expression remained calm. “You finally got something right. In my eyes, you’re nothing now. Lauren and Fran? They’re a thousand times better than you.”

Christina clenched her fists, her pretty face twisting in anger. She had spent all this time dressing up, picking the perfect moment to “win his heart“-only to be slapped in the face with rejection. 3

What did Lauren and Francesca have that she did not?

Irene suddenly screeched and lunged forward, her hands clawing toward Francesca’s face. “You little homewrecker! You shameless tramp! Andrew belongs to Christie, not you–get your filthy hands off him!”
