Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2016

Eric snapped angrily, "Why not just take him down right now? If we capture Joe, the Driscoll family will have no choice but to bow. At the very least, we could trade him for Victoria."

Andrew said evenly, "I'll rescue Victoria myself."

Eric sneered. "So that's it… You're still not ruthless enough. I know what you're thinking, you don't actually hate Joe, do you? You could use him as leverage, but you won't.

Andrew chuckled. "What nonsense are you spouting? Shiloh is my friend, nothing more. If she's truly happy with Joe, then I'll let her be."

Eric scoffed. "How foolish! The Greene family is undoubtedly a disaster, but the Greene family's legacy is equally limitless. If you could really help Shiloh recover her memories from the past, you'd gain not just unrivaled martial skills, but also the Greene family's deepest secrets. With that, you could rule the world."

Andrew shook his head. "Eric, enough with your nonsense. I'm about to storm the Driscoll estate and put an end to this once and for all. Watch over Lauren and the others. Nothing must happen to them."

Eric snorted unhappily, clearly still having strong objections, but he did not refuse.
