Chapter 811

They chatted idly on the way back. Before long, they arrived in downtown Jayrodale, and Andrew drove straight to the Rhodes Corporation building, pulling up in front.

A security guard jogged over with a big smile. “Mr. Lloyd, you’re back!”

As Andrew and Shiloh stepped out of the car, he handed over the keys to the guard and said, “Park it for me.”

The company’s security guards practically worshiped Andrew now. Their respect for him was just as strong compared to Tiana’s.

“Of course, Mr. Lloyd, don’t worry! I’ll take good care of your car!”

Just then, a weak knocking sound came from the trunk, along with what sounded like muffled cursing. However, with the noise of traffic all around, it was hard to make out.

The security guard frowned and asked, “Uh… Mr. Lloyd, I think something’s moving in the trunk.”

Andrew waved it off. “We picked up a wild boar on the way back. The kind that roams the mountains–mean as hell.”

The security guard’s eyes widened. “A wild boar? Oh man, those things can fight tigers! You’re incredible, Mr. Lloyd!”

Andrew nodded seriously. “You should probably call a few guys over before opening the trunk. Don’t want it going berserk on you. By the way, wild boar meat is amazing–great for BBQ. You guys should clean it up for me, and I’ll treat everyone to a feast later.”

The security guard grinned so wide his cheeks practically split. “Haha! Mr. Lloyd, you’re the best! Leave it to us!”

Andrew gave him an approving nod, then headed inside the building with Shiloh.

Shiloh glanced back at the car, her brows slightly furrowed. “‘Mr. Lloyd, do you have a grudge against that guy named Michael?”

Andrew chuckled. “Of course. A deep one.”

Shiloh thought for a moment before casually saying, “Do you want me to kill him? It’ll only cost you ten grand.”

Andrew twitched. “Shiloh, are you really that desperate for money?”

Shiloh answered seriously, “Obviously. Why else would I jump at the 20 million dollars you offered? Honestly, I still don’t completely trust you. But with that kind of money, I had no choice but to take the risk.”

Andrew was at a loss for words. She was a full-fledged martial king—an unstoppable force who could dominate anywhere. If she wanted, the elite families of Jayrodale would worship her. Even at the state level, hell, across the entire southern martial arts world, she could live like royalty.

Instead, Shiloh was a blank slate with no memories, no concept of the modern world, and no idea how to navigate it. That made her an easy target for con artists and dangerous people.

It was almost tragic for a martial king to be struggling to make ends meet.

Andrew said, “Shiloh, you don’t have to worry about money anymore. If you need it, I’ll give it to you.”

As they stepped into the elevator, Shiloh glanced at him and shook her head. “No need. I don’t like owing people. Besides, we just met. If you’re being this generous for no reason, I have to wonder what you want from me.” Andrew felt a headache coming on. He should have known Shiloh was not easy to fool. In truth, he did have an agenda–he wanted to keep this terrifying martial king close.

If things ever went south, he would just send her in like a human nuke, and his problem would be solved. Nonetheless, it was clear that trying to sweet-talk this blank-slate-yet-sharp-as-hell woman was not going to work.

Shiloh might not remember her past or know how to blend into modern society, but she was not a stupid person.
