Chapter 413

“Well, Mr. Ramsey, now do you believe what I told you earlier wasn’t a lie?” Andrew asked with an exaggerated sigh, shaking his head.

Ernest wanted to kill him—here he was at death’s door, and this kid was making small talk. However, his body had no strength left, as the blood loss had nearly drained him completely.

Ernest wheezed, “I was blind before, unable to see your true capabilities. I’m thoroughly convinced now, so please, Andrew, show some compassion and save me!”

Andrew nodded reluctantly. “Fine. Since you’ve recognized your mistakes, I’ll help you.”

Ernest’s eyes lit up with joy as hope returned, but Andrew suddenly slapped his forehead. “No, wait—I still can’t save you.”

The light in Ernest’s eyes immediately died out. His heart was screaming, but all he could manage was a weak cry: “W–Why?”

If he had the strength, he would have strangled this kid who kept toying with him between life and death.

Andrew said with feigned concern, “Well, Mr. Ramsey, you haven’t agreed to give me the Aurora Lotus yet. This is a matter of life and death—especially your life, which is priceless. I can’t just save you without getting anything in return.”

Ernest nodded frantically. “Take it! The Aurora Lotus is yours! Please, stop wasting time! I’m dying! You can have all my assets if you just save me!”

The two bodyguards were stunned. They had never seen their arrogant superior act so pathetically, begging like a madman.

Meanwhile, Natasha was delighted, silently cheering, ‘Well done, my darling! Take that pervert down!’

Andrew held out his hand. “One last condition—my rule is payment first, treatment second. You know what to do, Mr. Ramsey.”

Ernest immediately understood and ordered his female bodyguard to hand over the Aurora Lotus. Though reluctant, she had no choice under Ernest’s murderous glare.

After confirming the Aurora Lotus was properly stored in its silk-lined box, Andrew handed it to Natasha. Then, to everyone’s shock, he began stomping on Ernest’s chest repeatedly, causing him to howl in pain.

“What are you doing? Are you seriously trying to kill him after taking the payment?” the female bodyguard screamed, her eyes wide.

The male bodyguard lunged forward. “You double-crossing snake! I’ll fight you to the death!”

Even Natasha was horrified as Andrew’s brutal kicks landed on Ernest’s face, distorting it.

Suddenly, Ernest coughed up one final mouthful of black blood and slowly got to his feet, groaning. “My chest… my head… the pain is gone. I feel so much better…”
