• Rising from the Ashes   Chapter 1618

  In the living room in the Ulrich residence, Andrew sat casually in the central position at the head of the room. This seat belonged to Cillian, the head of the Ulrich family, and honestly, Andrew found it rather unremarkable.More than a dozen direct descendants of the Ulrich family, along with key family managers, all stood respectfully below him. Also present were Logan, Rachel, Duncan, and other big shots from within the Gabo Creek Chamber of Commerce.Mason stepped forward and, being all respectful, smiled as he fawned, "Mr. Lloyd, I've already reserved a private room at The Palace! It would be an honor if you and the elders from the Chamber joined us for dinner." Andrew waved him off. "No need for all that. We'll be on our way now. By the way, congratulations on being the new head of the family." Mason's smile grew even brighter. His posture dipped lower, more respectful than ever. "Mr. Lloyd, rest assured. From now on, the Ulrich family will fully cooperate with your leadersh

  Tyler growled, "Damn it, Cillian! Mr. Lloyd is a wealthy powerhouse in the state today, but tomorrow he could climb even higher and become a government official! He's a renowned entrepreneur, one of the top three philanthropists in charitable donations, a major supporter of government projects, and a miracle doctor beloved by the people!" He added, "Cillian, are you out of your damn mind? You seriously thought you could take this guy down?" He got more fired up with every word, practically jabbing his finger into Cillian's forehead by the end. Cold sweat soaked the back of his shirt. Thankfully, he had come to his senses quickly enough. If he had accepted that damn pipe and moved against Andrew, Derek would have had him packed up and fired by sundown. Cillian was completely stunned at that moment. He was utterly dumbfounded, frozen like a deer in headlights as he stared at the official red-sealed document Tyler had thrown on the desk, not daring to open it and read the conten

  At that moment, Cillian arrived at Jayrodale Bank. He was nothing but polite when facing Tyler Jones, the bank's president. "Hello, Mr. Jones. Pardon the intrusion, but I hope you don't mind my unexpected visit!" Tyler responded flatly, "Mr. Ulrich, you're one of the senior members of the Gabo Creek Chamber of Commerce, so just get straight to the point about why you're here today!" Cillian did not beat around the bush either. "Mr. Jones, isn't it true that Supreme Capital Group keeps most of its money deposited with Gabo Bank?" Tyler made no attempt to hide the facts. "That's correct, but I'm curious why you're asking about this matter." Cillian smiled mysteriously without saying a word. Instead, he reached into his coat and pulled out a long, elegant box. Then, he pushed it across the desk toward Tyler. Tyler opened it, and his previously indifferent attitude immediately became enthusiastic. "An onyx smoking pipe from Auqania! It looks like you've done your homework on

  Oswald tried to break free with all his might, but he could not summon any strength as Andrew completely suppressed him. With a fierce shout, he erupted with another flood of power, yet his hand gripping the cane remained completely motionless. Andrew's grip on the cane did not budge an inch. It was as if the weight of a mountain pinned it down. Oswald's eyes widened in disbelief. "Y-Your martial strength is stronger than mine?" Andrew's palm slammed into his chest with devastating force. The impact sent Oswald screaming as he flew backward through the air, throwing up a mouthful of blood. His voice dripped with contempt as he said, "You're nothing but an ant. Did you really think I was afraid of the Ackermann family? Afraid of you? This could've been a minor issue. None of this would've happened if your family had just paid back what you owed. "But instead, you pulled dirty tricks, with father and sons taking turns putting on this pathetic show! Now, I'll show you just how e

  Oswald's subordinate continued with the grim news. "The doctor said he'll likely spend the rest of his life bedridden!" Oswald said nothing, slowly closing his eyes as the weight of the situation sank in. "So you're telling me that my two sons, the Ackermann family's carefully groomed powerhouses, are now completely ruined? "And the one who's destroyed is the heir who was supposed to inherit the Ackermann family legacy! The one who should have died didn't; the one who shouldn't have died got hurt instead!" When he opened his eyes again, they were filled with blood-red fury, radiating pure malice and rage. The successor he had painstakingly groomed was gone, ruined in a single night; this hatred could only be washed away with Andrew's blood. Before Andrew could even respond, a loud, cocky laugh echoed through the entrance. "Well, well, Mr. Ackermann Senior. You really think you're a big shot, surrounding Andy like this? Since when does the Ackermann family run Gabo Creek like

  "The Ackermann family really thinks they can gang up on me? A father and his sons, all teaming up to take me on?" Andrew laughed as he looked at the ridiculous lineup in front of him. Oswald let out a furious snort. "Andrew, the Ackermann family only owes your Supreme Capital Group a few million. That's pocket change! But now you've nearly destroyed our entire family!" He growled and said, "You've seen my two sons. Horatio has mental problems, so my only hope was my eldest, Abel. But thanks to you, my sons turned on each other, and now Abel's life hangs in the balance! Tell me, how can I possibly let you go?" His expression looked ready to devour Andrew alive. Andrew sneered coldly in response. "Mr. Ackermann Senior, I really don't understand what you're saying. What do you mean by 'pocket change'? How is it that the Ackermann family is in the right when you're the one owing money now? "It's funny how when you came to Supreme Capital Group begging for investment, you had a
