Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 453

Chapter 453 Ms.

Rhodes , youre amazing ! I cant believe you actually got the money back , Eunice exclaimed with admiration .

Lauren shook her head and replied , I didnt get the money back Dr .

Lloyd did .

Eunices excitement froze as she looked at Andrew in disbelief , who was casually sipping tea on the couch .

She wondered how this man , whom Tiana had always looked down upon , had not only become Rhodes Corporations fifth director in minutes but had also helped recover 60 million dollars that seemed impossible to retrieve .

Just as doubt began creeping into Eunices mind , she quickly dismissed it .

Tiana was someone she unconditionally admired and respected if Tiana said Andrew was just a gold digger , then it must be true .

Ms.

Rhodes , congratulations ! The company really needs you ! Ms.

Rhodes , we old timers arent worth a fraction of your talent .

Solving this buge problem right after your return we must report this to the board and get you recognized ! Ms.

Rhodes , we all noticed what youve done for the company .

We cant wait for you to be our CEO and lead us again ! Marcus led a group of employees who were not aligned with Michael to offer their congratulations .

Everyone in the company knew this was a power struggle between the CEO and the Vice CEO , or more bluntly , internal friction between Rhodes Corporation family members .

Michael envied Laurens talent and influence , while Lauren had always looked down on her cousin .

Now , employees of Rhodes Corporation were faced with a delicate choice .

For the sake of their future careers and financial prospects , they had to decide whether to side with Michael or show loyalty to Lauren a decision that required careful calculation .

After dealing with a stream of well wishers , Lauren dismissed the last of them and slammed her office door shut .

Locking it firmly , she strolled over to the couch .

Andrew smiled and said , It looks like you have quite a few supporters in your company .

Most are truly on my side , but some are Michaels spies .

I dont have the patience to deal with them , Lauren replied with a hint of annoyance .

Was she really planning on starting an office romance ? Andrew began awkwardly , Ms.

Rhodes , this is your office .

Dont you think this might be … inappropriate ? Lauren leaned in until their faces were nearly touching and whispered , Dont worry , I locked the door .

Dr.

Lloyd , why are you trembling ? Is this your first time ? Andrew coughed , trying to appear composed .

Straightening up , he forced a confident tone .

Im no rookie .

Ms.

Rhodes , on the other hand , youre giving off major beginner vibes .
