Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2036

Watching Andrew walk away like that, Miles and Liliana were left feeling completely helpless. They wanted to step forward and say more, but they were afraid of making Andrew angry.

"Miles, he doesn't want to," Liliana said uneasily. "Do you think it's because I offended him before? Maybe that's why he dislikes me and refused our suggestion."

Miles gave a wry smile. "Liliana, it probably has nothing to do with you. Mr. Lloyd may be our age, but the things he's accomplished and the way he carries himself are far beyond us. Don't worry, he won't hold petty grudges against you."

Liliana frowned. "Then why won't he at least think about it? Mom's charm is undeniable, and half the men in Blumedale would line up to marry her if they could."

Miles shook his head. "Mr. Lloyd is probably too principled for that. It makes sense because he's just not the type of man to do something like this. It's only a shame for Mom, since she lost her martial strength and was betrayed by Dad."

He sighed and added, "Liliana, we must take good care of her."

Liliana snorted. "Calvin isn't my father! It was bad enough when he was useless and cowardly in the past. But this time, he actually colluded with outsiders to scheme against Mom. That heartless bastard doesn't deserve to be my father."

Miles let out a sigh. His sister's blunt nature and hatred for injustice reminded him of Victoria herself. Nonetheless, he was much more cautious than Liliana.

Calvin's betrayal of the Peck family and his scheme against Victoria were indeed unforgivable, yet in the end, Calvin was still his biological father.

Miles could only hope Calvin escaped Blumedale and never returned. If he ever showed his face again, too many people would want him dead. And first on that list would be Andrew, whose influence in Blumedale was now untouchable.
