Chapter 1412
As Andrew looked over, Christina looked back at him. Their eyes met, and he noticed she was holding what appeared to be a job resume. However, he kept his expression neutral and climbed into the Lamborghini.
Watching the Lamborghini speed away, Christina smiled bitterly. She had been trying her best to avoid going out, yet she still ran into the man she least wanted to face. The way Andrew had looked at her was not filled with contempt or disdainโit was simply indifference.
Yet, even that uninterested glance made Christinaโs face flush red with embarrassment and shame.
The two of them, who had once been together, were now worlds apartโone soaring high while the other had fallen to rock bottom. Unfortunately, she was the latter.
โLamborghini pickup service and gorgeous women around him every day. Andrewโs living a life I canโt even imagine now,โ she muttered, laughing self-deprecatingly as a cab pulled up.
Christina opened the door and got in, telling the driver to hurry since she was running late for her job interview. This was her first time taking a cab since she had been a CEO. Compared to the luxury cars she used to ride in, she felt completely out of place.
Even so, she had to adapt, whether she liked it or not. She was no longer the impressive CEO of yesterdayโjust another jobless worker with nothing to her name.
Andrew arrived at the Keller residence, where Georgeโs birthday celebration was already in full swing. As one of Blumedaleโs Five Apex Families and the most prestigious among them, the Keller family always maintained an air of elegance and class.
Logan rushed over despite being swamped with guests, greeting him with a smile. โAndy, you made it! Iโm absolutely swamped today and canโt spare a moment to keep you company, so Iโll have Emily show you around.โ
He turned to the wavy-haired woman beside Andrew and instructed, โEmily, take good care of our guest here. Dad specifically mentioned that Andrew is our familyโs most important visitor today.โ
Emily responded halfheartedly, โGot it.โ
As soon as Logan left, she immediately changed her attitude. She gave Andrew a cold glance before saying flatly, โCome on. Iโll show you around and introduce you to my two sisters.โ
Andrew did not move and frowned. โMeet your sisters? I donโt think thatโs necessary.โ
Emily sneered. โNot necessary? Youโre quite the actor, arenโt you? I bet youโre thrilled inside, but youโre putting on this aloof, righteous gentleman act. Andrew, drop the pretense because it just makes me think youโre a disgusting hypocrite.โ
Andrew stared at her coldly and replied, โI have no idea what youโre talking about, and frankly, I donโt get where this entitled little attitude of yours is coming from. We just met.โ
Emily gritted her teeth, hissing with disdain, โStill playing dumb at this point, are you? My father arranged for at least one of us three sisters to marry you, and you came here today to pick one of us, didnโt you?
โYes, your reputation as the Grand Physician is certainly impressive these days. But that doesn't hide the ugly nature of men like you.โ
She continued with disgust, โI donโt care what my two sisters think, but I will never submit to my familyโs arrangements and let a man like you touch me in any way.โ
If this had been any other time, Andrew would have immediately confronted this arrogant woman.
What was she thinking? Any woman he had around him was a stunner, and Emily thought way too highly of herself.
Andrew felt genuinely frustrated. George wanted to marry off one of his three daughters to him without even consulting him first. This kind of stunt was not something you could just spring on someone.
Just as Andrew was getting a real headache from the situation, two elegantly dressed women who looked similar to Emily approached.
They were clearly from privileged backgrounds and were surrounded by a crowd of wealthy young men. From the looks of that group, Andrew knew trouble was brewing.
