Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 514

Chapter 514 Dr.

Lloyd , I really cant anymore .

Please , have mercy and let me go , okay ? Lauren pleaded , her wide , tear filled eyes staring at Andrew with desperation .

This is the office .

People are everywhere , and you cant go on for this long in one go .

Be good .

Lets stop for now , and Ill give you another chance next time , okay ? she begged , trying to escape his grip .

Andrew lifted his head from her neck , chuckling .

Next time ? And when would that be ? Laurens eyes darted nervously .

Uh … tomorrow ! Then forget it .

I cant wait until tomorrow .

Besides , you were the one who came to me .

I didnt force you , Andrew teased with a sly grin .

Ah , no , no , no … Fine , how about this afternoon ? That should be okay , right ? Lauren stammered .

Nope , Ill need more by lunchtime , Andrew replied firmly .

Alright, alright ! Lunchtime it is , you big pervert ! Lauren grumbled , feeling both defeated and flustered .

For the first time , Lauren felt a chill run down her spine as she looked at Andrew .

This guy , who usually appeared so composed and gentlemanly , had turned into a wildfire when things heated up .

She realized she had severely underestimated his intensity it was like trying to contain an unstoppable blaze .

Just then , Eunice opened the door and froze , her face a mix of shock and disbelief .

Ms.

Rhodes , the morning meeting started ten minutes ago .

Are you still not done here ? Lauren shot up like a startled cat , hästily pulling herself out of Andrews arms .

She frantically smoothed her hair and adjusted her clothes .

Why didnt you come in earlier to remind me ? she snapped , her voice tinged with panic .

Eunice pouted , clearly feeling wronged .

Rhodes and Mr.

Lloyd , you really know how to make an entrance .

The rest of us have been waiting over ten minutes .

Quite the power move , dont you think ? Andrew ignored him completely .

Pulling out a chair for Lauren , he gestured for her to sit .

He then sat beside her and said nonchalantly , Feel free to speak your minds , everyone .

Im just here to observe as a major shareholder .

Dont worry about me .

His casual attitude left Michael and the other executives , like Troy fuming .

They had extended basic courtesy by inviting Andrew , but he acted as if he were some high- ranking official inspecting the company .

It was infuriating .
