Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 2141

Andrew paused for a moment before speaking honestly. "Madam Delaney, I'm not single."

Agatha's eyes widened. "What? Don't tell me you're already married? Which heiress did you marry?"

Andrew chuckled. "Married? Not yet. But I do have girlfriends."

Agatha patted her chest in relief and let out a long breath. "As long as you're not married, everything else doesn't matter."

Then, realizing she had revealed too much, she forced a laugh and quickly added, "Mr. Lloyd, what do you think of Rowan?"

Andrew was caught off guard. "You mean Ms. Maddock?"

Agatha nodded with a broad smile, throwing glances at Rowan over and over.

Meanwhile, Rowan pretended not to notice, her face growing redder by the second.

Andrew could not help but glance sideways at Rowan. When she noticed his gaze, she quickly looked away, avoiding eye contact with Andrew.

He said carefully, "Uh… well, Ms. Maddock is excellent. She's so young, yet already accomplished. I'm sure under her leadership, the Onyx Serpents will grow stronger."

Agatha shook her head. "That's not what I'm asking. I mean, Mr. Lloyd, do you like Rowan as a woman?"

Agatha was certainly direct. He and Rowan had not reached that stage at all.
