Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2167

Maxwell said, "This time, we have a distinguished guest visiting, and we need to take care of our VIP first."

Ophelia snapped, "Are you saying Mr. Knowles isn't as important as that guy from earlier?"

Maxwell looked a little impatient. "Ms. Barclay, if you insist on asking, then I'll be blunt. Mr. Knowles is nothing compared to him, so stop making a scene!"

With that, he hurried off to select bottles of vintage wine and personally went to host Andrew.

Ophelia ground her teeth in fury. "We'll see when Mr. Knowles shows up. Sure, there are people in Terror Town bold enough to ignore him, but never some nobody like that!"

From the Sky Garden, the entire skyline of Terror Town stretched out before them. Under the night sky, the city lights glittered like a sea of stars, and the view was stunning.

Sofia's vanity was completely satisfied as she sighed. "Andy, you're really incredible. Thanks to you, we finally get to have dinner here."

Andrew smiled. "Mrs. Garcia, don't say that. Honestly, the reason I went through all this trouble to come here wasn't because of you."

Sofia froze, unable to respond to his bluntness.

Andrew continued, "I only wanted to dine here to make my dear lady happy. Chantelle, are you happy?"

Chantelle looked at him with a bright smile. "I'm happy. Thank you, honey."

Sofia let out a long sigh in her heart. This rebellious future son-in-law made her love and hate him at the same time. She adored his power and ability, yet she hated how cold and sharp-tongued he was, not even sparing her, his future mother-in-law, a little face.

It was infuriating!

Soon, the food arrived. However, before anyone touched a bite, they posed for pictures and uploaded them to social media.

Sofia often mingled in Terror Town's cultural circles, so she specifically tagged several friends who, like her, enjoyed being picky and critical. When they saw that she was actually dining at Sky Garden, they immediately started asking questions.

One commented, [Sofia, is this for real?]

Right now, he was as humble as he could be, flattering Andrew at every turn.

Since Andrew had already put Carlos in his place earlier, he did not press further. He smiled and said, "Alright then, cheers!"

Carlos immediately drank it down, feeling oddly honored that Andrew had actually clinked glasses with him.

Cassandra smiled and whispered to Chantelle, "Elle, you and Andrew are absolutely perfect together. Terror Town has plenty of outstanding young men, but the one you found is definitely the best."

Chantelle pretended to be surprised. "Oh? Cassie, how come now you all think Andrew is so great? Weren't you the one who said before that he wasn't good enough for our family?"

Cassandra, thick-skinned as ever, laughed it off. "That was then, this is now! Back then, I didn't know who Andrew really was, so I underestimated him."

Chantelle sighed quietly to herself. Even her own family could escape that habit of fawning over the powerful. Nonetheless, she could not do anything about it, knowing full well that it was just human nature.
