Even Tiana was surprised by herself. She never expected that her view of Andrew had changed so drastically. She hated to admit it, but she had misjudged him–her perspective had been too narrow.

Andrew was not just some reckless upstart. He was exceptional.

Andrew remained calm. “Mrs. Rhodes, I appreciate your compliments but don’t need them. What I do need is an explanation. Otherwise, know that I wasn’t joking earlier.”

Tiana scoffed, her expression darkening. She looked at him coldly and said, “Just because I appreciate you doesn’t mean I approve of you. You spoke out of turn earlier, disrespecting me. You even had the audacity to threaten Rhodes Corporation itself.”

She asked, “Do you have any idea how close I was to putting you in your place right then and there?”

Andrew smirked. “Well, Mrs. Rhodes, I’d say you were very lucky you didn’t. Because if you had, you wouldn’t be sitting here having this conversation with me.”

Tiana narrowed her eyes. “What are you trying to say?”

Andrew shrugged. “I’m saying you’d be on your kriees instead.”

Tiana’s aura instantly darkened. Suddenly, a wave of cold, murderous intent surged through the room—she was

deadly serious.

Andrew, however, did not flinch. He simply met her gaze, unbothered.

So, the infamous Tiana Lambert, the Iron Lady, had been hiding her true strength all this time. She was not just powerful–she had crossed the senior grandmaster threshold, putting her on the verge of an elite powerhouse.

That kind of strength made her untouchable in a place like Jayrodale.

Andrew could not think of anyone here who could go toe–to–toe with her. But even so–so what?
