Chapter 1784
Andrew asked, โDid you forget that we almost got blown up?โ
Aspen looked angry, but still shook her head. โThe Driscoll family is incredibly powerful. I think weโre not strong enough to go up against them right now! Of course, I wonโt forget what happened before, but I think we should lay low for a while!โ
Andrew smiled and reached out to caress half of her face. โWhat? Are you scared?โ
With a proud little huff, she replied, โMe, alone? Of course Iโd be scared of going up against the Driscoll family. But with you, why would I ever be afraid?โ
Andrew pulled his hand back and chuckled. โDonโt worry. None of you needs to worry about this. New Yearโs is coming up. Iโll be heading to the Southern Martial Union headquarters. When the time comes, see if the three of you want to tag along and take a little vacation.โ
Aspenโs eyes lit up. โThe headquarters? Thatโs right next door in Goldridge! That cityโs incredible. Of course, weโll go! Iโll go tell Lauren and Fran right now!โ
After she left, Andrew stood alone, looking out at the winter scenery outside. The leaves had all fallen, and the lawn was withered and yellow. The frost had killed nearly everything.
His eyes grew colder, matching the harshness of the season outside.
That night, Loganโs people delivered the gear Andrew had requested. He hefted the massive black rifle in his hands, weighing at least 70 pounds. Andrew was more than satisfied. He wondered if Scarlett would be able to handle a shot from this beast.
In the Driscoll residence, the lights were still blazing. Even though Blumedaleโs city center had long gone to sleep, this place never rested, pulsing with excitement until dawn. The status of the Three Titans was undeniable.
Scarlett returned to her suite after a long night of social engagements. She had feigned drunkenness for a clean exit, but her expression was now icy cold.
Behind her, one of her subordinates asked respectfully, โMs. Driscoll, would you like to rest here or head back to the office?โ
The small beauty mark near her lip twitched slightly as she replied flatly, โIโll stay home tonight. There are people holding things down at the company, and there are no issues for now. By the way, have we sent any more people to take out Andrew?โ
The subordinate nodded.
โOur team is on standby at all times. But after the last attempt, Andrew has become incredibly cautious. He rarely leaves Serenity Villa. Even when he does, he moves fast and disappears before our people can get close.โ
Scarlett sneered. โUseless trash.โ
Still, she was not angry. โKeep watching him. Stay ready. I want him to understand that defying the Driscoll family only leads to one endโdeath.โ
โUnderstood, Ms. Driscoll. Any other orders? If not, Iโll take my leave.โ
Scarlett paused. โWait. Whatโs Joe been up to lately?โ
The subordinate hesitated, clearly reluctant to speak.
Scarlett gave him a sideways glance. โSpit it out. Donโt make me ask twice.โ
The man broke into a cold sweat, panicked. โMs. Driscoll, Iโd never dare let you lower yourself to ask me anything. Iโd rather jump off a building! Please, donโt say that!โ
He continued, โMr. Driscoll has been seeing a woman lately. Heโs been leaving the house every day to spend time with her. Our investigation shows her name is Shiloh Greene, and sheโs associated with Andrew.โ
Scarlettโs brows tightened. โSeriously? Joe is getting more and more outrageous! Heโs given up on that bitch Lauren! Once I finish dealing with whatโs on my plate, Iโll definitely have to talk to him! Getting lost in women and neglecting martial arts training is not the path heโs supposed to be on.โ
