Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 205

Chapter 205 Harvey felt the sting of humiliation but could only swallow his anger in silence .

He was about to take over the Weller family , and he could not afford to make any mistakes now .

Although Finley was a nuisance , Harvey knew that the Hidden Dragons had too much power for the Weller family to risk angering them .

Michael stepped forward , playing peacemaker with fake sincerity .

Gentlemen , were all respectable people here , and the auction is about to begin .

Why dont we head inside ? Fine , lets attend the auction first , Finley replied haughtily .

But my love for Ms.

Stevens is as clear as day , and I wont rest until shes mine .

Mr.

Weller , youd better do the right thing and step aside ! His arrogant words were another blatant insult .

The onlookers silently noted that since Finley came from the martial arts clans of Gabo Creek , no one in Jayrodale would dare challenge his authority tonight .

Just then , a Mercedes G Wagon pulled up forcefully in front of the Radiant Group building .

A tall man in an impeccable suit stepped out and shoved Finley aside , nearly causing him to fall face first .

Move ! Youre blocking the way ! the man barked .

Finley stumbled , furious , and spun around , ready to lash out .

Who the hell pushed me ? Are you that eager for death ? His two attendants were about to attack but immediately backed off when they recognized the newcomer .

They exclaimed fearfully , Its you ! The crowd was stunned .

Finley had always been the loudest and most arrogant person around , but this newcomer was even more aggressive .

Andrew , a few people muttered , and their reactions were mixed some shocked , somet furious , some cold .

Michael sneered , Andrew , youve got some nerve laying hands on Mr.

Christina turned away coldly , cutting him off , Save it , Harvey .

Your dad is seriously ill and still fighting for the Weller family .

As his successor , I hope you dont completely destroy what little reputation the Weller family has left .

Finley had reached his breaking point and snarled , You pathetic pretty boy , you keep disrespecting me you must have a death wish .

After being slapped by Andrew earlier that day , Finley was already boiling with anger .

The thought that this useless man had the audacity to defy him in front of so many high- society people was something Finley could not let slide .
