Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 1941

Victoria waved her hand dismissively. "Listen to me, let's put that matter aside for now. Andrew, do you know what special day today is?"

Andrew paused, looking puzzled. "Today? It's still about ten days until Renewal Day, so I can't think of what special day it would be!"

Victoria smiled. "Today is Kindling Night for us in the South. When I was little, my mentor would always celebrate it with me and my fellow apprentices at the training grounds. Come on, I want to take you to experience it too."

Andrew grinned. "Sounds great!"

In the Peck residence, several cars were already running. Flower arrangements, along with various offerings, were neatly arranged in colorful displays that looked absolutely beautiful.

Wealthy families always paid attention to details and honored traditional holidays.

Calvin approached them with a flattering smile. "Victoria, let's go. It's almost time!"

Victoria walked with Andrew, followed by Miles and Liliana.

Miles was reasonably polite to Andrew and took the initiative to greet him. However, Liliana snorted coldly with obvious disdain.

Andrew was not impressed by her either, so he simply ignored her. As for Calvin, he acted like he did not even see him. After all, the two had an unpleasant encounter back in Goldridge.

Calvin's illegitimate son, Terry, had failed to become Jerome's inner disciple. Blaming Zachary for it, Calvin also held a grudge against Andrew.

"Andrew, why don't you ride with me?" Victoria suggested as she climbed into the lead car first.

Andrew did not think much of it and got into the passenger seat. Originally, he could have sat in the back with Victoria. After all, he still knew the proper boundaries to maintain.

Liliana pouted. "Mom, I want to sit with you."

Victoria replied calmly, "That's fine, just get in. We're getting late."
