Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 3193

Andrew asked, "Where are Eric and Mr. Thornton?"

Brielle smiled and said, "They have been training at Martial Tower long-term. Ever since what happened to you two years ago, Eric has thrown himself completely into martial cultivation."

Andrew smiled and said, "That's rare for that guy. It's a good thing."

Brielle looked a little awkward and said, "Andrew, give me a moment. I'm going to change my veil. This one got wet."

Andrew smiled as he replied without thinking much, "Madam Baxter, there's no need to change it. There's no one else here anyway. Why don't you just take it off and let me see what you really look like? We've known each other for so many years, and I still haven't actually seen your face."

The words were meant as teasing banter, nothing more.

Yet, when Brielle heard them, her face turned burning red, and even her neck flushed.

She mumbled with slight embarrassment, "You little brat, do you really… really want to know what I look like?"

Andrew answered frankly, "Why not? Madam Baxter, you're Eric's mother, and we're close friends. Of course, I want to know what you look like."

Brielle's eyes darted away, her mind in turmoil. Finally, she slowly reached up to untie her veil and said softly, "Alright, there's no one here, so I'll show you. But Andrew, you'd better be careful. Anyone who sees my true face has to take responsibility."

Andrew blinked, confused. "Take responsibility? What kind of responsibility?"

Brielle's eyes gleamed playfully as she smiled. "Back when I first put on this veil, I made a secret vow to myself. From that day forward, if any man ever saw my true face, then I would… Either his eyes would have to be gouged out and blinded completely, or he'd have to be the man I love most in this life."

She added, "So, are you sure you still want to see my real face?"

Meeting her teasing gaze, Andrew honestly felt like backing down for a moment. It was not that he was afraid of going blind. After all, Brielle did not have the strength to do so.

Andrew's eyelids twitched, and his heart sank. 'Damn it… She's serious!'

The look in her eyes and the amorous flush on her face were very much not right. Nonetheless, this was Eric's mother.

What could he possibly do?

What should he do?

The next moment, Andrew's heart jolted with alarm when he saw Brielle lean in closer.

The King of the Wastelands, who could casually defeat martial gods, was internally panicking at this moment.

Truly, among all the poisons in the world, the alluring mature woman ranked first.
