Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 1411

The next day, Andrew woke up alone in his king-sized bed. He could not believe those three girls had actually let someone into the house without his permission. As punishment, he had given them the cold shoulder all night long.

What surprised him was their reaction when he announced he would not be choosing any of them for the evening. Lauren and Francesca seemed genuinely thrilled and immediately voiced their approval. Even his devoted little servant, Aspen, though a bit shy about it, indirectly expressed that a night off sounded pretty good.

That was when Andrew realized something was definitely up—these three girls seemed like they could not wait for him to give them a break.

After his morning routine, he headed downstairs to find the dining table already set with a delicious spread.

Lauren, Francesca, and Aspen had all gotten up early and were dressed to kill, each one more stunning than the last. The sight of them competing for his attention was absolutely satisfying.

"Where are the Stevens?" Andrew asked casually as he sat down.

Lauren smiled sweetly. "I didn't want them affecting your mood, so I had them stay in the guest house next door. It's got everything they need, including a full kitchen."

Andrew nodded without comment and started eating.

Then, Francesca chimed in with a grin, "Andrew, after breakfast, I need to head to Blumedale Hospital to start my shift."

Lauren batted her eyelashes playfully. "What a coincidence—I have to go to Rhodes Corporation too!"

"Lauren, does your family's company have offices here in Blumedale?" Andrew asked.

Lauren laughed. "Of course they do! Mom's got big ambitions these days. The family's entire business operations have shifted to Blumedale."

Andrew figured that made sense, given Tiana's current strength. The Rhodes family did not need to keep a low profile anymore. Plus, Jameson was genuinely talented at business and had apparently built strong relationships with several wealthy widows around Blumedale who kept referring lucrative deals to the Rhodes family.

Over time, the Rhodes family had really developed the presence of a major dynasty.

Fortunately, Andrew did not need to drive himself today because someone was picking him up. As soon as he stepped out of The Sovereign Residences, a flashy orange Lamborghini roared up to the curb.

Behind the wheel sat a woman with voluminous waves of hair, sunglasses, and a pouty mouth perched above a pert nose.

Beneath those oversized shades, her porcelain skin had an almost ethereal allure—clearly another high-society heiress.

"Get in. My brother sent me to pick you up," she said flatly to Andrew.

"Your brother? Logan?" Andrew asked, surprised.

The woman replied impatiently, "Yes, Logan. Now hurry up—Dad's birthday party is about to start."

Andrew frowned but opened the car door anyway. As he did, another figure caught his eye.
