Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2467

Titus slammed his hand on the table with a loud crack. "What did you just say?"

Mikayla instantly feigned panic. "Please calm down, Mr. Sterling. I must have spoken out of turn. This might all be a misunderstanding. I probably heard it wrong."

However, Titus' face only darkened further. He said nothing more, though his hand on the table trembled with rage.

Theon chuckled under his breath, glancing at Mikayla with quiet admiration. He thought, 'Impressive. When it comes to playing dirty, women truly have a gift for it. Mikayla is clearly among the best!'

After that, Titus, still simmering, made a few more administrative arrangements before abruptly ending the meeting.

As Theon left with his students, he shot Mikayla a smirk. "You're good. Mixing truth and lies like that, you made Madam Baxter and Andrew sound completely tangled up in scandal."

Mikayla replied calmly, "Mr. Orben, what I said wasn't entirely false. Madam Baxter does treat Andrew differently from others. Sometimes, there's an odd tension between them, something you can't quite put into words. I think their connection might run deeper than anyone realizes."
