Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 454

Chapter 454 Lauren bit her lip playfully , her voice turning husky as she said , Really ? Then why dont you prove it to me ? Its simple help me take off these stockings .

Remember , you won , so theyre yours now .

Andrew was left speechless , his eyes widening in surprise .

Meanwhile , in another office on the same floor of Rhodes Corporation , Michael violently slapped Cindys bottom as she rose from his lap .

Cindys face showed a mix of pain and resentment as she complained , Mr.

Rhodes , whats making you so angry ? Youve been different ever since Ms.

Rhodes returned .

Michael snarled , Shut up ! Havent you seen how many people are sucking up to that little bitch since she came back ? Im the CEO and spokesperson of Rhodes Corporation , not Lauren , yet these idiots still flock to her !! Cindy tried to calm him down , saying , Sir , try to look at the bright side .

Ms.

Rhodes did manage to recover that 60 million for the company .

To be honest , that was quite an achievement nobody else could have done it .

Michael let out a cold laugh and sneered .

Oh ? So youre on Laurens side now ? You think shes so impressive ? Cindy whispered , Im not supporting her .

Its just that , as a woman , I admire her capabilities .

And Mr.

Lloyd beside her is quite remarkable too .

I heard he personally forced Madblade Martial Academy to return the money .

Madblade Martial Academy isnt someone to mess with , Michael muttered after pushing Cindy away .

For that good for nothing Andrew to get 60 million from a psycho like Rodney , he must have some real skill .

Andrews support of Lauren had created an invisible threat to Michaels position .

He recalled Andrews earlier warning about putting him in his place something Michael had dismissed at the time , but now he could not help but feel concerned .

Michael pulled out his phone with a dark expression and called Jerry .

He needed to know why Jerry had not used the Madblade Martial Academy situation to eliminate , or at least seriously injure Andrew when he had the charte .
