Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 246

Chapter 246 Just then , more distinguished guests arrived at the Weller family estate .

Harvey walked with two of the familys elite guards .

away Andrew , Harvey may be a jerk , but the Weller family elders arent pushovers , Francesca warned .

You dont need to be so confrontational with them ! Cant you see what Harveys doing ? Andrew scoffed .

Hes just flexing his new authority by parading around with the familys guards .

If we back down now , hell think he can get away with anything ! Dr.

Lloyd , Fran , lets go inside , Lauren suggested .

Whatever happens , Harvey wont cause trouble at his fathers funeral with so many people watching .

The Weller residences main hall was packed with Jayrodales elite .

Andrew casually glanced around and spotted his old rivals : Atlas , Finley , and Michael , who had also noticed him .

While nobody started anything , the tension was evident in their pressions .

Mr.

Lloyd , hello ! an enthusiastic voice called out .

Andrew turned to see Silas , the CEO of Radiant Group , approaching with a friendly smile , followed by Elsie in an elegant black dress that accentuated her figure .

Hello , Mr.

Vaughn , Ms.

Santana , Andrew replied politely .

Mr.

Lloyd , you did us a huge favor at the last auction , Silas said .

Ive been looking for an opportunity to thank you properly .

A favor ? I didnt do anything special , Andrew responded , puzzled .

Elsie stepped forward , a slight blush on her face .

If it werent for you , our auction house would have suffered heavy losses .

Please accept our gratitude .

If your gratitude involves a private date , I must respectfully decline , Ms.

Andrew is a gentleman , not some playboy .

Elsie will Chapter 246 get the message after being rejected a few more times ! Fran , youre acting like youre Dr.

Lloyds wife , Lauren teased .

With the way you guard him , anyone would think youre Mrs.

Lloyd .

Francescas face turned red as she avoided Andrews gaze .

Im doing nothing wrong ! Andrew is our hospitals deputy chief .

I have a duty to protect his reputation! By then , all the mourners had arrived .

Harvey took the stage , flanked by two Weller family guards .

Thank you all for coming to pay respects to my father , he began .
