Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2672

As they head back, Milo asked irritably, "Mr. Lloyd, why didn't you ever mention that your family brought a top-tier expert?"

He clearly felt Andrew had deceived him and disrespected him.

Andrew smiled and replied, "Mr. Avila, calm down. It's just that our elder doesn't like me casually revealing his whereabouts. How about this, Mr. Avila, I'll tell you exactly where he is and you can go talk it out with him yourself?"

Milo's mouth went dry as he said, "It's fine, forget it. I wouldn't dare confront someone who can kill a martial emperor. Mr. Lloyd, you're just messing with me now."

Andrew sneered inwardly, already thinking that Milo was a burden he could finally drop. After all, they had successfully connected with Koda.

Suddenly, Milo straightened his back and said righteously, "Mr. Lloyd, I knew from the start you're no ordinary man. Anyone from a major family is different. No offense, but even though your martial strength is a bit lacking, and judging from your condition, you were clearly injured lately and still carrying some damage… even those flaws can't hide how incredibly sharp you are. A Lloyd family heir is still a Lloyd family heir; none of you is ever mediocre."

Andrew sensed something was amiss with this long string of flattery and asked flatly, "And?"

Milo stroked his beard with a sly grin. "And… Well, I think you and Quinn would be a perfect match. Mr. Lloyd, listen to me. She's gorgeous and talented, absolutely a catch. As for those rumors from before, don't take them to heart. Men should be open-minded sometimes. If you didn't see it happen, then it doesn't count, right?"

Andrew nearly gagged; Milo's logic was truly insane.

What did he mean by 'if he did not see it, it did not happen'?

Did Milo really think Andrew was that desperate?

Meanwhile, Milo, oblivious to Andrew's disgust, kept going. "So, Mr. Lloyd, you can try spending some time with her first. I believe the two of you will definitely spark something eventually. You know what they say, as long as there's love, everything else is just noise."

The disciple hesitated and said, "She is not home right now. She's at Mr. Easton's place, and she also sent a handwritten note from Mr. Easton."

He handed Milo a folded letter.

Milo opened it, and his expression instantly turned strange. "It's a letter from Corbin, inviting me over, saying he has good news to discuss. Damn it, now he wants our families to marry each other. He never said that back when he looked down on me. But now he's suddenly all humble and flattering. Looks like he finally realized how fearsome I am and wants to cozy up!"

Judging by how he stroked his beard with hesitation and interest, Andrew felt pure disgust. "Mr. Avila, don't forget you're already allied with Koda. If Ms. Avila marries Lennox, that means you're siding with Mr. Easton."

Milo instinctively laughed. "If Quinn can marry Lennox, then honestly, that's not a bad deal. With Corbin's influence and the Owens family combined, that's definitely enough. Uh… Mr. Lloyd, don't get me wrong, I'm just stating facts. Anyway, you all rest here for now. I'll be right back. Don't worry, no matter what Corbin says, I won't be fooled."
