Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 78

Chapter 78 Chapter 78 Francesca finally snapped out of her shock from witnessing Juans brutal defeat , her face filled with fear .

She stuttered , Y You actually beat up Juan so mercilessly ? Do you have any idea what- Andrew cut her off with a bored expression .

Youre going to say Im in big trouble , right ? Isnt that obvious ? Francesca exploded .

Dont you know who Juans father is- Andrew interrupted again , Of course I know .

He just told us his dad is some East Side Tony , supposedly a big deal or whatever .

Then why would you attack him ? Francesca demanded .

Andrews face darkened .

He was spouting filthy insults and harassing Ms.

Rhodes .

Should 1 have applauded him instead ? Besides , Ive dealt with Dylans people before , so whats one more from East Side ? Francesca turned to Lauren in desperation .

Lauren , this is serious trouble .

This could bring Tony himself into it! This is just a little scuffle between us young folks .

If Tony gets involved , I wont let Dr.

Lloyd face this alone .

The Rhodes , family isnt afraid of Tony .

Francesca was fuming .

Lauren , what are you thinking ? Is this loser really worth all this trouble ? Of course ! Lauren replied matter of factly .

Dr.

Lloyd stood up for me .

Good men like him are rare these days .

Francescas heart sank , realizing her friend was in too deep .

She could not understand why Lauren would risk pitting the Rhodes family against Tony for some nobody .

Suddenly , thunderous footsteps echoed as hundreds of thugs stormed in .

Francescas face went pale as she mumbled , Thats Rocco Larsen , Tonys second in command .

This is bad .

Lauren seemed equally troubled .

She had not expected Juans men to show up so fast .

Madden .

Did you think this would end well ? Chapter 78 Juan started this with his vulgar comments , Francesca argued .

Andrew wouldnt have hit him otherwise .

Mr.

Madden couldve killed this nobody , and it wouldnt have mattered , Rocco mocked .

Francesca was furious .

Youre ridiculous ! Say what you like , but all I know is Mr.

Madden Senior is furious after knowing Mr.

Madden got beaten up .

When hes angry , people suffer and boy , did you pick the wrong person to mess with .
