Chapter 904

Natasha, the sultry, shameless widow, was practically on fire, clinging to Andrew like an octopus. She leaned in close, blowing warm breaths against his ear in a voice so sweet and seductive it could take a man’s life.

Andrew spun around and caught her wandering hand, smirking. “I can’t let you take control of a man’s most vulnerable spot!”

Natasha’s cheeks flushed as she tilted her chin up, teasing, ‘I won’t use my hands. How about my mouth?”

Andrew nearly choked on his own breath–he had not expected her to be this bold. He quickly surrendered. ” Alright, tonight’s not a good time. I gave you my word, and won’t go back on it, but another day, okay?”

Natasha’s eyes sparkled mischievously, a hint of playful desperation in them. “Sure! Another day! I pick today!”

Andrew stared at her, speechless. Clearly, her reading comprehension skills were top–tier. “When I say another day, I mean another time.”

Natasha insisted, “That won’t do! There’s no time like the present–let’s make it today!”

“Natasha, are you in heat or something?”

“Nope, I just miss you. I don’t care what you say–you must make me your woman. Darling, do you have any idea how lonely a widow is when she sleeps alone every night?”

After an exhausting round of coaxing, Andrew finally managed to pacify the lust–driven widow. Without wasting another second, he hit the gas and sped away from the West End headquarters.

Instead of returning to Moonlit Sanctuary, he drove straight to the Rhodes residence.

The moment Tiana saw him at the door, her face turned ice cold. “It’s late. What the hell are you doing here?”

Andrew grinned. “Mrs. Rhodes, good evening. I came to see Lauren.”

Tiana scoffed. “Oh, so now you know how to be polite when it comes to my daughter? Kenny’s made his move against you, hasn’t he?”

Andrew did not hide the truth. “That old dog hired a guy called Phantom Eye to take me out.”

Tiana let out a dry laugh, her anger mixing with amusement. “Smartass. Fine, I’ll just wait and watch how you and Marvin dig your own graves. Anyway, Lauren’s already asleep. If you want to see her, come back tomorrow.”

With that, she moved to shut the door.

Andrew frowned. “Mrs. Rhodes, Lauren and I are both young adults. You come from a prestigious family— shouldn’t you know better than to meddle in young people’s relationships?”

Tiana let out a disdainful chuckle. “Love doesn’t put food on the table. Can it guarantee my daughter a happy future? Can it ensure she never suffers a single hardship and that she lives a carefree life as someone above all others?

“Andrew, you’re bright and full of potential. If Lauren hadn’t met someone like Joe, a true once–in–a–generation talent, maybe I would have considered letting you two be together. But sorry, compared to you, my daughter has a better option.

“And like any mother, I will stand firm and do whatever it takes to secure my daughter’s future!”
