Alle Kapitel von Rising from the Ashes: Kapitel 1271 – Kapitel 1280

Jared dismissed the news casually. "Fran had talent rivaling mine even as a student, so it makes sense for her to go. As for this last person, they're probably just filling a spot." Thomas laughed coldly. "This last person is hardly a space-filler! He's personally appointed by Malcolm, who has placed virtually all his hopes on this individual!" Jared was stunned. "Dr. Goddard values him that highly? Who is he?" Thomas said flatly, "His name is Andrew Lloyd." Jared snickered. "Never heard of him. Must be a nobody." Bernard, unable to resist stirring trouble, smiled meaningfully. "Jared, this Andrew is far from a nobody! The object of your affection, Francesca—her beloved happens to be this very Andrew!" Jared's expression instantly darkened, becoming filled with gloom. "He's Fran's beloved? He's not worthy! At the Grand Medical Summit, I'll show him the gap between a nobody like him and me, Jared!"."Fran is brilliant—I believe she can distinguish between precious gem and c

Carl's head was buzzing. He could not believe that his Seven-Tailed Centipede had failed. Andrew raised his foot and slammed it into Carl's chest. With a splatter, a large gush of blood burst from Carl's mouth as he flew back a few yards, crashing hard into a flower bed. This impact finally knocked some sense into him. As he struggled to get up from the ground, his eyes bulged with rage. "Andrew, this isn't over. Just you wait…" Carl let out a miserable scream through his blood-filled mouth. He never imagined his usually foolproof poison attacks would fail. Even more unbelievable was that he, Mosby's senior apprentice—skilled in both medicine and martial arts—had been reduced to such a severely injured state. The tearing pain on his face and the burning sensation in his chest with every slight breath made Carl realize how badly he was hurt. These injuries might even leave him with permanent damage. With this thought, his murderous intent toward Andrew expanded endlessly. He

"Dr. Lloyd, did you know Fran has come to Blumedale?" Lauren asked with a bright smile as Andrew stepped into the Rhodes residence's grand hall. Andrew smiled. "Yes, I saw her yesterday, actually." Lauren's smile immediately turned suggestive as she lowered her voice. "So, did you two immediately go at it for hours when you met?" Andrew gave a wry smile. "No, nothing like that happened. But Lauren, you seem quite interested in these matters." Lauren's cheeks flushed pink as she boldly admitted, "Of course I'm interested! That busty Francesca got to enjoy what should've been mine first!" Andrew wiped his brow. "Hey, I'm not some 'thing' to be enjoyed!" "Oh, I know," Lauren giggled, "Fran already told me all about your… big equipment." Well, Andrew was thoroughly defeated in this battle of wits. When it came to dirty talk, he realized he was no match for experienced players like Francesca and Lauren. "Hey, Andrew, glad you're here. Did you manage to get those rare medicin

Tiana felt deeply ashamed about this situation, but she consistently refused to admit anything was wrong with her feelings. She was the type of person who, even after making a mistake, stubbornly refused to back down. Wisps of heat began radiating from Tiana's body and head. Andrew's expression turned solemn as he recognized they had reached a critical moment in the energy channeling process. Following Tiana's guidance, his palms began moving across the pressure points on her body. These moments severely tested Andrew's nerves and willpower. After all, he was neither a saint nor immune to temptation. Andrew hated to admit it, but Tiana's figure was indeed perfect. Each time their skin made contact, Tiana would release unnatural murmurs, which only tortured Andrew more. The small chamber quickly filled with mist as time passed. A martial king's power relied on immense internal energy and bodily strength. Combined with Andrew's powerful medicinal pills, Tiana had become a walkin

Yet strangely, this crazy woman's words were always ambiguous and arousing. If someone else had been in Andrew's place, he would have been shocked if Tiana had remained unscathed afterward. Sometimes, Andrew truly could not understand why Tiana, a beautiful woman in her 40s, would behave like those girls in their 20s. She bewitched minds, exuded seduction to the bone, and in front of men, she would tease and flaunt her feminine allure unrestrained. At her age, with a husband and daughter, would it kill her to be more proper and dignified? But on second thought, Andrew realized that Tiana had always been cold and ruthless, strict and meticulous—even Jameson and Lauren feared her. She certainly was not some loose woman, and in front of other men, she appeared unapproachable, icy, and pure. She only went crazy and acted abnormally when dealing with her son-in-law. His father was undoubtedly a factor, as Tiana saw him as his father's reflection, but did she really have no other un
