Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 156

Chapter 156 With a sudden burst of movement , Herman struck Tonys head with his palm .

Tony was stunned , muttering , Mr.

Blackwood , you … you ..

Blood sputtered from his mouth and nose , and he did not even finish his sentence before collapsing .

With a blank face , Herman said , The moment we provoked Mr.

Lloyd , we were already set to be buried six feet under .

Dont worry .

Ill join your soon .

Dylan watched the scene unfold with chills running down his spine .

Without any physical force or coercion , Andrews mere identity had driven both a martial arts master like Herman and a crime lord like Tony to their deaths .

He could not comprehend just how powerful Andrews true identity was .

Mr.

Yates , after Im gone , please dont bring trouble to Crimson Alliance or my family , Herman begged , still kneeling .

Can you promise me this ? Mr.

Lloyd never harms the innocent , Marvin replied coldly .

Rest assured , the Crimson Alliance and your family will be safe .

Herman sighed in relief before biting down hard on his tongue .

Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth as he died by suicide .

Marvin turned to Dylan .

Dylan ! Dylan jumped nervously , Yes , Mr.

Yates ! Everything that happened here today must remain absolutely secret , Marvin said calmly .

The consequences of any leak would be beyond either of us to bear .

Understand ? Dylan gulped anxiously as he caught Marvins meaningful look .

Y Yes , Mr.

Yates .

I understand .
