Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 186

Chapter 186 Jerry immediately refused , Im sorry , but I wont do something that risky .

Andrew is obviously very close to Ms.

Rhodes .

If I harm him shell never forgive me .

I work for the Rhodes family to secure my future , not to be your hitman .

Then , Jerry disappeared into the woods , ignoring Michaels furious expression .

Bane , since Jerry is too scared , why dont you take care of that guy yourself ? Eliminate him before he causes more problems ! Michael suggested .

Banes face darkened with uncertainty as he replied , We cant rush this … One wrong move , and we lose everything .

We now know Tracia was killed by at least a junior grandmaster level fighter , and that person might be backing Andrew .

If thats the case , moving against him carelessly would only bring us trouble .

Michael was frustrated by how his sure victory had turned into a complete defeat , and he shouted , Bane , are you afraid of that worthless pretty boy too ? Bane scoffed .

Dont be ridiculous ! Ive dominated Gabo Creeks martial arts world for decades I fear no one , especially not in a small town like Jayrodale .

Lets wait until we get back to town before making our next move .

Michael desperately wanted to confront Andrew immediately , but he lacked the necessary strength himself .

Hence , he had to rely on people like Bane and Jerry , who were too wise to take unnecessary risks without absolute certainty .

Back in Jayrodale , Lauren had dragged Andrew to Oakridge Club .

Andrew protested helplessly , Ms.

Rhodes , you dont really have to do this to thank me .

Lauren ignored his protests , keeping her arm linked with his while pressing close , seemingly unconcerned about their physical contact .

Dr.

1/2 Andrew understood immediately Harveys falle investments had become the final straw for the Weller familys financial struggles .

The once nighty family had been reduced to selling off their properties .

Inside the Oakridge Club , the former grandeur had faded to dim lighting .

Francesca and Laurens assistant , Eunice , were waiting for them Are the Weller family representatives here ? Lauren asked Eunice , Eunice looked uncomfortable and replied , Yes , but Miss , its not just their representative who came … Lauren was unbothered .

Who else? That good for nothing Harvey ? Francesca cut in , Lauren , you should be careful .

Not only is Harvey here , but Mr.

Weller Senior , the head of the Weller family , has also come .
