Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 3157

Iridessa said bitterly, "You don't need to put on this act! I'm telling you, it's because of you that my mother died heartbroken. She's no longer Eastonia's Imperial Consort. Everything is in the past!"

Andrew fell silent for a moment before asking, "Is it really like Vance said, that your mother was dethroned by the Emperor and executed?"

Iridessa said sadly, "What else do you think happened? A big reason I wanted to kill you was to avenge my mother! Andrew, you're nothing but a scoundrel!"

Andrew snorted coldly. "About what happened back then, all I can say is that I know nothing! Your mother was a good woman. Thanks to her, I was able to escape from the

Eastonia royal family.

"But the Emperor was truly unimpressive, at least in my eyes. Nothing happened between your mother and me. Executing his own wife like that? I really wondered if the Emperor had something wrong with his head."

Iridessa sneered. "At this point, do you think I would believe what you said? My mother was taken away by you, and with her beauty, would you really have let her go?"

Andrew rolled his eyes. "Who are you looking down on? You are so tempting, and I still let you go."

Iridessa's face flushed red as she gritted her teeth. "After what you just did, you call that letting me go?"

Nyx sensed something off and frowned. "What happened between you two just now? Honey, did you…"

Andrew cut her off directly, without changing expression. "What are you thinking? She came to assassinate me, and I subdued her. That was all that happened. As for anything else, you are overthinking it. Nothing happened."

Looking at Iridessa, Andrew said seriously, "You should leave. But I want to make it clear that I am not letting you go out of guilt. It is only because your mother once helped me. Now I have repaid her by sparing you once, but there will not be a next time."

After speaking, Andrew struck Iridessa's back with his palm. At once, her meridians opened and her martial power returned.

She wanted to fight desperately, but his cold gaze made her heart tremble, and she knew that struggling would only mean death. Gritting her teeth, she shot him a hateful look, then flipped over the balcony and escaped.

Nyx kept frowning. "Honey, with your strength, it should have been impossible for her to get close, right? Strangely enough, I shouldn't have slept so deeply just now."

While muttering, Nyx walked into the bedroom to check. Then, she saw a piece of burned-out incense.
