Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2359

Andrew lifted his gaze and looked at Enzo. Anyone carrying that surname could only be from the Reyes family. If he was not part of the main bloodline, then at the very least, he was from one of their branches.

Enzo's face carried an unfriendly sharpness, and there was a predatory air about him.

Narrowing his eyes, he sneered at Andrew. "Well, well, what a rare guest! I never thought the famous Dragon Prince of the Lloyd family would step foot into our family's auction house."

Andrew waved dismissively. "Cut the nonsense. Just tell me if you're taking my business or not."

Enzo let out a cold laugh. "Not a chance. And not only are we not taking it, but I'm asking you to get the hell out of here."

Joaquin gasped in shock. "Sir, you…"

Enzo whipped his head around and snapped, "Shut up, old man. Since when do I need your input in my decisions?"

Joaquin trembled, and he dared not say another word.

Andrew chuckled softly, showing not the slightest anger. "Chetvine Grand Auction House, such a fine place, such a fine establishment. I never thought the Reyes family would actually hand it over to a coward like you to manage. If someone like you existed in the Lloyd family, he'd have been stomped to death and fed to the dogs long ago."

Still smiling, Andrew rose to his feet and leisurely adjusted the buttons on his tailored suit.

Enzo's expression turned dark and sinister. "Andrew, you'd better watch yourself. This isn't the Lloyd family's territory, and it sure as hell isn't Martial Tower, where you can run wild. This is under the Reyes family's control. If you act arrogantly here, I can make sure you never walk out alive."

Andrew strode forward without hesitation, looking him straight in the eye. "Go ahead, take a shot. I want to see exactly how you're going to make sure I don't walk out."

Enzo smirked. "I know I can't beat you. I'm no match. Kyrie's humiliation was proof enough of that. But Andrew, even if I can't fight you, I can still refuse your business. You're short on cash, right? Then scram. I don't care if you brought something valuable; I'm shutting the door on you."
