Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2499

Valerie said coldly, "What I'm doing here is none of your business. The real question is, do you even have any shame left? The lady clearly didn't want it, and you still tried to force yourself on her? I didn't think your private life could get any filthier, Andrew."

Andrew looked irritated. "If you're done talking nonsense, you can leave. This is my business, not yours. And who told you she wasn't willing?"

Valerie snapped, her voice rising. "Are you seriously saying she wanted that? I saw it with my own eyes! You were trying to kiss her against her will! Don't tell me you're going to deny it now!"

Rowan frowned and finally spoke up. "Miss, you've got it all wrong. I was just shy, that's all. I actually did want it."

Valerie froze, her eyes widening in disbelief. "You… wanted it? Wait, weren't you being forced?"

Rowan looked at her like she was an idiot. "Of course not. Andrew's my husband. Why would he need to force me? If anything, you just barged in and ruined our moment, which is incredibly rude, by the way."

Valerie's jaw dropped, feeling embarrassed. Rowan's words hit her like a slap across the face. She had honestly stepped in thinking she was saving someone, and now it just made her look like a fool.

"Fine! I shouldn't have meddled," she snapped.

Then, she shot Andrew a scathing look. "But I have to hand it to you… Your luck with women is truly remarkable. This one's gorgeous. Seems like you're never short on beauties, no matter where you go."

Andrew simply smiled. "What can I say? Some people are just naturally irresistible. Anyway, since you're here uninvited, you might as well say what you came for. If there's nothing, please leave. I don't exactly welcome you."

Valerie gritted her teeth. "You think I wanted to come to this dump of a place? Don't flatter yourself. I came to ask about your fight with Mr. Murphy Senior. How bad are your injuries?"
