Chapter 270
โYes! Both my legs are broken! I want Andrew dead!โ Harvey screamed into the phone.
A long silence followed before Ian, the Weller family elder, spoke hoarsely. โMr. Weller, you fool. Andrew is at least a junior grandmaster! I warned you not to provoke him recklessly. Why didn't you listen?โ
โI never provoked him! He showed up, ruined my plans, and broke my legs!โ Harvey snarled.
Ian sighed. โItโs too late. Return to the Weller residence and get your legs treated. As for Andrew, with a senior grandmaster in seclusion, Iโm the only one left, and Iโm not confident facing him.โ
Harvey was stunned by Ianโs reluctance. His face twisted with rage. โAs family head, I order you to kill him! Do you hear me?โ
Ian replied coldly, โTed and I exist to ensure the Weller familyโs survival. Weโre not here to help you bully people and pursue women. We warned you about Andrew, but you wouldnโt listen. You brought this upon yourself!โ
He hung up, dismissing Harveyโs authority. Harvey stared at the phone in disbelief before smashing it. After cursing Ian, he ordered his men to take him home for treatment.
Back at the Stevens family residence, Douglas hosted a formal dinner to thank Andrew. Raising his glass, he said, โAndy, youโve helped us tremendously. This is the least I can do to show our gratitude!โ
Andrew asked the elderly man to sit down and replied earnestly, โMr. Stevens Senior, please donโt be so formal. Youโve been kind to me, and itโs only right that I repay it.โ
โAndy, compared to what youโve done for us, my past kindness was insignificant,โ Douglas said, waving his hand. He sighed heavily. โYou and Christie were perfect for each other, yet things ended up like thisโฆโ
Douglas loved his granddaughter Christina and was proud of her, but her excessive pride had ruined everything. While he didnโt know exactly who Andrew was, he knew he was extraordinary. He had arranged Christinaโs engagement to Andrew, hoping to secure a powerful ally for Stevens Corporation and his granddaughterโs future. To his regret, Christina had squandered this opportunity.
โGrandpa, donโt blame yourself. This was all my doingโIโll take responsibility,โ Christina said, her emotions in turmoil.
