Chapter 1289

Author: Only For You
"Kid, so you're the one who beat up my men, huh?" Tristan slowly removed his sunglasses and squinted at Andrew.

Andrew smiled. "That's right, I'm the one who beat your guys up."

Tristan sneered. "You look unfamiliar. Don't you know who I am?"

Andrew shook his head. "Actually, I don't. Besides, are you really that famous? Why should I know who you are?"

Tristan's already gloomy face turned even uglier, unable to believe he was being looked down upon. The group of underlings behind him revealed fierce looks in their eyes, just waiting for his command.

Yara was so frightened that her legs grew weak, but she forced a smile and said, "Mr. Cummings, it was your men who came to my project office first and disrupted my construction progress. You're a gang leader working under the Azure Dragon King, a big shot with status and position. Surely you wouldn't stoop to such disrespectful behavior, would you?"

Tristan coldly replied, "Ms. Wright, don't blame me for bullying you. It's just

    Sheena looked thoroughly displeased, but with tears brimming in her eyes, she swallowed her pride and whispered, "I'll listen to you this time, Grandpa. Honestly, I've always been grateful to Uncle Reginald and that annoying Andrew for everything they've done for me; I just never had the courage to admit it or say it out loud. When Andrew almost got killed today, I realized I'd rather die myself than see him hurt." Donovan smiled faintly. "That's good to hear. As long as you two stay united, the Lloyd family will stand tall through any storm or disaster. That's enough for now. I heard Conrad's back, and his duel with Andrew is about to begin. I'm planning to send Andrew away from Chetvine after that, to his next destination." Sheena's eyes widened. "You're sending him away? Grandpa, isn't Chetvine the safest place for him right now?" Donovan shook his head. "No. For an eagle like Andrew, the sky is his only true sanctuary. Smothering him with protection would only do him harm. Hi

    "How's Andrew?" At the Lloyd family estate, Donovan stood in the back garden with a pair of shears, trimming the hedges with calm precision. Sheena crossed her arms, scowling. "He's not dying anytime soon. That idiot pissed me off so bad. I still don't get why he wouldn't let me kill Wilder when I had the chance." Donovan replied evenly, "As long as he's alive, that's all that matters. Everything else can be worked out. Good… Very good indeed." The odd note in his voice made Sheena frown. "Good? What's good, Grandpa? What are you even talking about?" Donovan chuckled, setting the shears aside. "Andrew, of course… Don't you think he's remarkable? He fought Wilder, a man at that level, and came out in one piece. That kind of power, that kind of fire… He's truly the Dragon Prince. It seems the Blood-Eyed Black Dragon in his veins has finally awakened." Sheena's expression turned serious. "Grandpa, are you saying Andrew managed to stand toe-to-toe with Wilder because of the fam

    Luna snapped coldly, "Shut up! If you have feelings for him, too, then don't you dare talk about him like that. You're right, Valerie. I do like Andrew. People have always said we're competing, but honestly, I never wanted to compete with you for anything. Whatever you want, you can have it. But when it comes to Andrew, if you try to play games with me, I'll make sure you regret it." Valerie let out a sharp laugh. "Wow, Luna. That's rare coming from you. You've always been the silent type, ruthless but quiet, never wasting words. And yet here you are, yelling because of a man. Seems like you've really fallen deep." She continued, "But I told you already… I'm not letting you win. You like Andrew and want him for yourself? Then I'll take him from you just to watch you squirm." Luna's tone stayed calm, but her words carried weight. "You can try to steal him or use whatever dirty tricks you want, I don't care. But I hope whatever you're doing is genuine, not just out of spite or some

    Valerie had always been dazzling and fierce, but she had never been this cold-blooded and determined. Yet for Andrew, she seemed like a completely different person. Luna felt an ache she could not quite describe. What was this supposed to be? She and Andrew had not even developed anything real yet, and now her colleague, her rival, had suddenly stepped in. From the looks of it, Valerie had gotten much further than she ever had, and that was something Luna just could not accept. It was not that she could not accept losing to Valerie. What she could not accept was that she had known Andrew first. She was the one who had met him early on, so why was Valerie the one who got to start something with him? "Come back. Andrew isn't dead. Why do you care so much about whether he's alive or not? Looks like you've fallen for him, haven't you?" Valerie froze. Then, she quickly spun around, "What did you say? He's not dead? Is he really okay?" Luna's heart sank slowly as she answere

    Valerie arrived at the Martial Tower in a hurry, but the place was already deserted. The duel between Andrew and Wilder had ended half an hour earlier. "General Reyes, what are you doing here?" one of the tower guards snapped to attention. Valerie kept her face expressionless as she strode forward, brisk and commanding, and she said, "Move aside. I have business here." The two guards did not dare argue. Luna and Valerie treated their own troops very differently. While neither was deliberately insulting or arrogant, Valerie was more headstrong and blunt, and people did not fuss because she had earned that right. Luna was colder and more distant, but she was quietly dedicated to her subordinates and would patiently teach anyone who asked about their martial progress, no matter how late it was. Valerie was different. If someone did not pick something up after two tries, she would be ready to rough them up. Valerie rushed straight to the arena and froze when she stepped insid

    Titus looked at Theon deeply, his lips curling into a faint, unreadable smile. "Looks like being the chief alchemist isn't enough to satisfy your appetite, Mr. Orben. "Fine. Ambition isn't a bad thing. If you can close those remaining deals, then I won't even bother reporting to the headquarters. I'll step down myself, and you can take over as head of Sovereign's Apothecary." Theon burst into laughter, brimming with confidence. "Then, I'll make sure you hear good news soon." With that, he stood up and strode out of the room. Titus remained seated, his mysterious smile never fading. A few moments later, Brielle returned quietly, as if she had never left. She said, "I warned you that Theon's ambition runs deep. You've seen it now for yourself. He used to be just an alchemist under us, but now he's bold enough to reach for leadership itself." Titus waved his hand dismissively. "It's fine. This isn't a big deal. Ambition can be useful. A man with fire in his heart can spa
