Chapter 2227
Sheena huffed angrily. โGet lost already. I donโt want to see your face anymore. I was planning to test your strength, but now I see itโs pointless since youโre not even worth my time.โ
Andrew looked unusually embarrassed, scratching his head awkwardly. He gave Natasha a meaningful look and quickly made his escape.
The Lloyd family estate was massive, and the two of them wandered around for a while before reaching a ruined area. All that remained was a single broken-down shack standing alone among the debris.
Natasha stared in disbelief. โDarling, please donโt tell me this dump is where you and your father used to live.โ
Andrew sighed helplessly. โThis is it, unfortunately. What youโre seeing now is whatโs left after someone destroyed it, but this place used to be magnificent. It was practically a palace.โ
Natasha looked skeptical. Ever since Andrew had returned to the Lloyd family estate, she had noticed he seemed pretty pitiful. When facing that fierce woman earlier, his usual confidence had completely deflated.
She could not hold back her frustration. โDarling, why was that lady so nasty to you just now? Youโre the Dragon Prince of the Lloyd family, which technically makes you their leader. And what was all that talk about โtesting your strengthโ?โ
She continued, getting more worked up. โShe even had the nerve to mock you for not reaching martial emperor level. Sheโs unbelievably arrogant! If it came down to a real fight, I bet she wouldnโt stand a chance against you.โ
Andrew shook his head with a serious expression. โRight now, if we actually fought, it would be a close call. You saw Conrad earlier, right? He was just one step away from reaching martial emperor level, a genuine prodigy. But in front of the savage Sheena, Conrad would have to get on his knees and beg for mercy, then grovel like a dog to please her.โ
Natasha gasped in shock. โAre you serious? Sheena comes off as nothing more than a shrew to me. I couldnโt see anything particularly impressive or special about her.โ
Andrew gave a bitter smile. โYouโll witness her power eventually, trust me. Throughout Chetvine, there are countless talented individuals and numerous prodigies, but Sheena has a reputation for crushing geniuses and killing prodigies.โ
He added, โOh, and by the way, the Lloyd family has 12 different departments, and sheโs the head of the assassination division. If Iโm right, that crazy woman might actually have a shot at reaching the martial god level in her lifetime.โ
Natasha was stunned into silence, her mouth hanging open. After a moment, she asked, โIs she really that powerful?โ
Andrew sighed deeply. โPowerful? Absolutely. But unfortunately, she was once defeated by me, and because of that one incident, she held a grudge against me. The main problem was that I was young and stupid back then. I told her she was all chest and no brains, and even cursed her future children.
โIt was pretty hurtful, and I heard she actually cried over it. She swore sheโd never forgive me for as long as she lived.โ
Natasha looked amazed. โWere you really that mischievous as a kid? I wish Iโd met you earlierโฆ I would have taught you better ways to play and kept you from becoming such a bad boy!โ
Andrewโs face darkened with embarrassment. โSorry to disappoint you, but I was too young back then to be interested in big boobs.โ
Natasha giggled. โWhat about now, though? Now that youโre all grown up, do you like them?โ
Andrew replied irritably, โJust hurry up and help me clean this place up. Weโre going to be sleeping here tonight. Iโll get a construction crew in here to fix up the house later, before bringing Lauren and the others over.โ
Natasha looked puzzled. โWith all your money, why are you so attached to this dump? We could just buy a huge mansion somewhere else instead.โ
Andrew shook his head with conviction. โYou donโt get it. In all of Chetvine, when it comes to geomancy, my familyโs land is second to none. Donโt be fooled by the ruin. If I ever put it up for sale, I guarantee the rich and powerful from all over the world would fight over it.โ
Natasha chuckled, unsure whether to believe him or not. However, looking at Andrewโs serious expression, it did not seem like he was joking around.
