Chapter 2155

Sofia muttered reluctantly, “Why shouldn’t I bring it up? She’s my daughter. If her mother doesn’t question the man she chose, then who will?”

The Garcia family had several luxury cars lined up, but on the way home, Andrew and Chantelle rode in one by themselves.

“People always say folks in Terror Town are picky, pretentious, and high-brow. Seeing it today, I’d say that’s pretty accurate,” Andrew said with a smile.

Chantelle gripped his hand, her face full of apology. “Honey, once we’re home, I’ll explain your identity to them clearly. I’m sorry for the way my mom treated you. Honestly, she’s just vain and materialistic. She wanted me to find someone more impressive than Carlos.”

Andrew raised a brow and asked, “Is he really that impressive?”

Chantelle shook her head. “Not really. He’s from a local family here in Terror Town, worth a few billion, and he’s an only child, so he’ll inherit it all. He also runs his own company here, which is why he acts like he’s untouchable.”

Andrew shrugged. “So he’s just a small-time player. Don’t worry, I won’t stoop to his level. But that only applies up until now. If he dares challenge me in your house, I’ll make sure he regrets it.”

Chantelle gave a bitter smile. “I knew bringing you back would cause waves. Your temper is something my family definitely won’t be able to handle.”

Andrew snorted. “Your family was acting all high and mighty first, looking down on me like they’re better than everyone.”

Chantelle suddenly grinned. “Then, honey, can you do me a favor?”

Andrew looked confused. “What favor?”

Chantelle clenched her fist and swung it lightly. “Help me slap some sense into my family, especially my mom. To be honest, after working with Governor McCormick, I’ve seen a lot, and I can’t stand the fake attitudes of people here in Terror Town. My mom and Carlos are prime examples. Even if they’re family, I just can’t stand it. So this time, I want you to crush their arrogance for me.”

Andrew stared at her. “You’re serious?”

Chantelle blinked. “Of course I am!”

Andrew pinched her cheek with a grin. “That’s my darling! Always on my side. It makes me want to spoil you even more.”

Chantelle looked blissful. “You know, it’s strange. With you, I feel myself becoming softer and gentler. Maybe that’s the change love brings to me.”

Before long, they arrived at the Garcia residence.

Though the Garcia family was only considered a third-tier family in Terror Town, even third-tier here meant serious money and influence. They were far above third-tier families elsewhere, but Andrew disliked their pretentiousness and false pride.

As soon as they entered, Sofia cornered him again. “Andrew, you said earlier you’re not from Blumedale in Gabo Creek. Let me warn you first… If you’re from some small town, you’re not worthy of Chantelle!”

Andrew chuckled and replied calmly. “Don’t worry, I’m not from a small place. My family is from Chetvine, right next to the grand palace there.”

Sofia froze, shocked. “Are you serious?”

Andrew’s face stayed steady. “As real as it gets. If you don’t believe me, you can ask your daughter. Or better yet, just call Governor McCormick yourself. You’d believe his word, wouldn’t you?”

Sofia was left speechless. Andrew’s move was too sharp and unexpected. Everyone knew that families near the palace in Chetvine carried weight far beyond what a Terror Town clan could compare to. After all, no matter how powerful the local elites were, they still had to bow to the capital.
