Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 275

Chapter 275 Dylan forced an awkward laugh and ducked his head sheepishly .

I was just kidding , Mr.

Lloyd .

Please dont be angry .

He had no doubt about Andrews influence .

With one word , this man could actually have him performing stand up comedy for the rest of his life .

The SUV pulled up in front of a towering building in Jayrodales West End district .

Mr.

Lloyd , this is Madam Vostokoffs headquarters the main base of West Ends underground operations , Dylan explained while opening the door for Andrew .

Impressive … Andrew nodded after taking in the sight .

At that moment , an alluring woman wearing a veil and dark smoky eye makeup approached them , surrounded by several imposing bodyguards.

Mr.

Garner , youve finally arrived .

Please come in .

Mr.

Giordano and Mr.

Moore are getting impatient , she said with a smile , her eyes deliberately lingering on Andrew , Mr.

Lloyd , this is Natasha Vostokoff , the leader of Jayrodales West End , Dylan introduced .

Before he could introduce Andrew , Natasha cut in with a flirtatious laugh .

She purred , Theres no need for introductions , Mr.

Garner .

Ive heard all about this handsome young man .

She continued , Word is that on the day the new Weller family head took power , he held his own against their veteran enforcer in a fight .

Impressive indeed , given his young age ! She batted her eyes at Andrew seductively as she spoke .

While Natasha was indeed an attractive older woman who had maintained her allure , Andrew merely smiled politely at her advances .

He noted how well informed she was about his encounter with the Weller familys enforcer despite never meeting him clearly , there was a sharp mind behind that sensual exterior .

Knowing Andrews usual indifference to women , Dylan cleared his throat and said , Madam Vostokoff , since Mr.

Giordano is already here , lets get down to business .

Natasha giggled charmingly .

Of course ! Though I hear theres some bad blood between Mr.

Lloyd and Mr.

Moore .

Mr.

Garner , are you sure its wise to bring him ? Dylan snapped , Where Mr.

Lloyd goes , I go .

If he leaves , I leave .

If Mr.

Giordano isnt serious about negotiating , we can end this now .

Now , now , Mr.

Garner , we all agreed that each party could bring their own backup , Natasha quickly assured him .

He added , Though bringing Mr.

Lloyd seems a bit … inadequate ? You know Mr.

Moores got 1/2 +25 BONUS Chapter 275 Hidden Dragons behind him .

Hidden Dragons means nothing Mr .

Moore is worthless compared to Mr.

Lloyd , Dylan scoffed .

Natasha shook her head slightly , reflecting on Dylans typical brashness and lack of political finesse .
