Chapter 2081

Penulis: Only For You
Even though Rowan did not actually manage to rescue Andrew in the end, her life-risking determination and loyalty had still moved him.

More importantly, she was someone he had not crossed paths with in years, and she seemed to look at him differently now.

So, if he rashly stepped in to save her now, would he end up getting entangled in a relationship he could not shake off?

Looking up at the pitch-black sky above, Andrew found himself genuinely torn.

He mumbled, "You tried to save me once before, even though I didn't need saving. Since I've stumbled across this situation, I can't just stand by and watch someone suffer. I've never been able to turn a blind eye to people in trouble!"

After finding himself a reason, Andrew took two quick steps to reach the locked courtyard gate. As soon as he got close, he could hear Rowan's heartbroken sobs from inside.

In Andrew's memory, the Onyx Serpents had always been reasonably powerful among the three major gangs in Gabo Creek. Nonet

    The blood droplet was deep crimson, growing larger and more solid as it spun like a red crystal above Shiloh's chest. Andrew's eyes turned ice-cold as he prepared to charge out directly. However, Shiloh, who had been lying motionless, suddenly let out an ear-splitting scream. At that same moment, her tightly closed eyes snapped open. They were all white. No pupils, only a blinding, frigid haze that sent a chill deep into the bones. Beside Andrew, Eric visibly shuddered. He muttered quickly, his voice tight with fear. "If she loses control, everyone here will die!" The blood droplet suspended above Shiloh's chest suddenly retreated back into her body. Everything returned to calm once again. Nicholas gripped his sword and said in a deep voice, "Your Eminence, what's happening here? Why has the Blood of Longevity, after being forced out, returned to this woman's body?" Alistair's voice was no longer steady and casual. Instead, it carried weight and gravity. "Do not worry

    The unique Flamebinding of the Crimson Flame Cult burned across Shiloh's chest. The bloody seal glowed faintly against her pale skin. In just a few days, Shiloh looked younger still. Though Andrew knew it was her, her features had shifted. She appeared a few years younger, looking barely 18 now. "Mr. McDaniel Senior, you've arrived. Now we can begin our ceremony!" the hoarse voice rasped from beneath a rough hood. Next to the stone platform where Shiloh lay, a tall, thin figure stood with his head lowered. His skeletal, claw-like fingers kept drawing bloody marks on the stone platform. These bloody marks intersected with each other, forming strange patterns. Cordelia had revealed that the Crimson Flame Cult was preparing to perform some kind of ritual on Shiloh. Once the ritual succeeded, she would forever belong to the Crimson Flame Cult. Looking at the scene now, Andrew could tell this tall, thin person must be the Crimson Flame Cult's high priest. And what he was doing w

    Henry was cautious to the extreme. He had his entire body covered and stopped often, scanning his surroundings for any sign of danger. Yet, no matter how careful he was, there was no escape once Andrew set his sights on him. What puzzled Andrew was that Henry's route was identical to his own earlier path, straight toward the McDaniel family chapel. Andrew had already searched that place and found nothing. Nonetheless, he pushed the doubt down and continued to shadow Henry. Eric, though equally confused, said nothing once he saw that Andrew was not stopping. After about ten minutes, Henry successfully entered the McDaniel family chapel. However, as soon as he went in, he hurriedly retreated, as if encountering some unexpected situation. The two rows of candles at the chapel entrance flickered in the wind. Andrew and Eric, hidden in the attic across from them, exchanged glances. This was awkward. Henry had retreated so quickly that he was now hiding right below them. If

    "Andrew, wait!" Just as Andrew was about to leave, Rowan rushed forward and threw her arms around him. When he turned, her soft fragrance and warm body pressed into his chest. She held him tightly, tiptoeing as she lifted her face, eyes shimmering. She grumbled, "You rascal, I'm leaving now! I don't know what you're planning to do here, but please take care of yourself. I'll listen to you and wait for you in Blumedale. Just promise me you'll make it there safely." Her heart pounded as she spoke quickly. Then, with a sudden burst of courage, she rose on her toes and pressed her lips to his in a brief, tender kiss. Her cheeks burned crimson as she spun away and darted off. In a flash, Rowan vaulted over the McDaniel family estate wall and disappeared into the night. Andrew touched his lips, still feeling the lingering warmth and softness. He sighed at how fast and boldly she moved. Shaking off the odd feeling building in his chest, he focused and slipped into the McDaniel

    Looking at the tears on Rowan's face and her genuinely radiant smile, Andrew found himself somehow flustered. He quickly turned his head away and asked, "How did you end up getting captured and brought to the McDaniel family?" Rowan shook her head rapidly. "Don't worry about me! Get out of here quickly, then leave the McDaniel family estate immediately! Henry's here too. If he discovers you, you're dead!" Andrew waved his hand dismissively. "I'm fine for now. I heard your argument with Eugene earlier. Rowan, tell me the truth. Do the Onyx Serpents need help?" Rowan froze, then gave a bitter smile. "The Onyx Serpents aren't what they used to be. I'm just leading the survivors around with no place to call home. Honestly, telling you this changes nothing. Andrew, just go. As for what you heard earlier, forget it. I'll be fine." Andrew frowned. "I'm serious. You're in trouble, aren't you? Do you need help?" Rowan's pale face stiffened. "And I'm serious too. I said I'm fine. Ev
