Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 228

Chapter 228 Christinas tone was cold as she said , Im sorry , but I dont need any of this from you .

I already told you last night were done .

Theres nothing left to talk about .

Harvey silently cursed her , but he kept his face calm and plastered on a smile .

He softened his tone and replied , I know youre still angry .

Im not asking you to forgive me right away , but my feelings for you have never changed .

If you dont forgive me today , Ill stand outside Stevens Corporation every day to apologize until you do .

Christina frowned in disgust .

Harvey , dont you realize how childish and pathetic that sounds ? I dont want your apologies .

I want us to stay out of each others lives from now on .

Its for the best .

Irene snapped , Harvey , stop harassing my daughter ! Youre the heir of the Weller family- stop acting like some shameless , clingy mutt ! Harveys face twitched at the insult , his fists clenching as he fought the urge to lash out at Irene .

He inhaled sharply , forcing himself to stay composed .

Christie , you dont have to forgive me .

But I need to let you know something Andrew has crossed my family too many times .

My father has already marked him for death .

He smirked , his tone turning threatening .

I dont want things to get ugly , but if you dont reconsider and take me back , I wont hold back .

That loser standing beside you ? Hes as good as dead .

Harvey shifted tactics , knowing Christinas biggest weakness was her unwillingness to see others get hurt because of her .

He was sure she would cave under pressure .

As expected , Christinas face paled , and she snapped , Harvey , whatever is between us has nothing to do with Andrew ! Dragging him into this only makes me despise you more .

Harvey sneered .

Youre already trying to cut ties with me .

Do you really think I care about your opinion of me anymore ? Turning to Andrew , he mocked , Andrew , why dont you come over here and beg for my forgiveness ? If I can convince Christie to come back to me , I might consider letting you live .

His arrogant smirk made it clear he thought he had Andrew cornered .

Andrews eyes glinted coldly as he stepped forward .

Ill do whatever you want as long as you dont hurt Andrew .

Harveys laugh echoed through the room , full of satisfaction .

This was exactly the result he had wanted .

Using Andrew as leverage , he knew he could force Christina to submit .

Once he got what he wanted , he would deal with Andrew permanently .

Christina turned to Andrew , then said in a soft and aggrieved voice , Andrew , Im sorry .

Because of me , you almost got dragged into this mess .

Forcing a small , sad smile , she added , After this , well be even .

The hospital saved my family .

Youve already helped meso much in my career .

I wont trouble you anymore .
