Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 706

Michael was furious. After being repeatedly belittled by Andrew today, he was already boiling with rage. He growled, "Alright, we'll see soon enough. I want to see how long you can keep up that arrogance!"

He stood up, threw down those harsh words, and stormed out with Bane trailing behind him.

"Meeting adjourned!" Tiana announced.

The other senior executives followed suit, leaving one after the other. As they walked out, most instinctively kept their distance from Andrew.

They had finally realized that Andrew was an unrelenting, shameless troublemaker. He showed no respect for Michael, even though Michael came from a powerful family, and he even dared to openly mock Tiana.

That kind of audacity was not something ordinary people could stomach.

Tiana was the last to leave. She turned to Andrew with a taunting smile. "Mr. Lloyd, I heard the Jayrodale Grand Hotel has arranged a 'Reckoning Toast' just for you. You act all high and mighty in front of me—I just hope you won't be too scared to even show up. Or worse, wet your pants when you get there!"

Andrew's expression remained calm. "Just a small fry—not worth my time."

Tiana let out a cold laugh. "Raymond may be a small fry, but Winston from the Wright family? Now, that's a shark that kills."

Andrew chuckled. "And what difference does that make in the eyes of a soaring predator? Whether it's a shark or a small fry, they're both nothing more than insects to me."

Tiana scoffed. "Arrogance leads to disaster, Mr. Lloyd. You'd better hurry and beg Marvin to spend some money and clean up your mess!"

With that, she turned and walked away.

The Reckoning Toast that Raymond had set up at Jayrodale Grand Hotel was already the talk of high society. Tiana had known about it for a while now, and she was also well aware that Raymond had Winston from the Wright family backing him up.

"Mr. Lloyd, tomorrow's the last day of the Reckoning Toast," Marcus reminded him. "Traditionally, you're supposed to show up and apologize on the first day to prove your sincerity."

He added, "If you wait until the third day, it'll be seen as disrespectful—people will think you don't take the apology seriously, and it'll stir up even more trouble!"

Andrew smiled. "So what if it does? I'm not going there to apologize anyway."

Marcus was stunned. "You're not going to apologize? Then… what exactly are you going for?"

Andrew's eyes turned ice-cold. "Isn't it obvious? I'm going to make Raymond apologize to me!"

Marcus was utterly speechless, thinking, 'Mr. Lloyd, are you sure you want to play this game?'
