Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2742

Andrew realized he had overreacted a moment ago, so he laughed and said, "Madam Baxter, you're not old at all. If you don't believe me, take off your veil and let me appreciate the view a bit. My eye for beauty is top-tier, so if I say you're gorgeous, then you're absolutely stunning."

Under the veil, Brielle's expression turned slightly embarrassed and annoyed. She huffed, "Smooth talker. Mr. Lloyd, I'll take my leave now. The world is wide, so if fate allows, we'll meet again."

Andrew sighed. "Madam Baxter, you've long stopped enjoying the wandering life. Why not find a quiet place to settle down? For example, the Medicine God's Covenant is perfect for you. If you come, I'll hand over the director position to you on the spot."

Brielle smirked. "You'd give me the director's seat just like that? Are you really willing? Are you sure?"

Andrew patted his chest. "Absolutely sure. Madam Baxter. Join us and build something great with us. With you on board, the Medicine God's Covenant could surpass Sovereign's Apothecary and dominate the alchemy world in Holtrien."

Brielle shook her head. "I admire you, and I know you mean every word. But if you think from my perspective, you should know it's impossible. Even if I stayed here and went nowhere else, I still couldn't work under you. Julius and the Divine Alchemists would crush both of us without hesitation."

Andrew let out a cold snort. "Julius and the Divine Alchemists are strong, yes. But I'm not exactly weak either, and the connections I've built in Chetvine aren't for show."

Brielle sighed. "Andrew, you're still young, and you have a long future ahead of you. Listen to me: you must keep growing stronger, again and again, because only then can you fully control your destiny.

"Your network is impressive, and you're the Lloyd family's Dragon Prince, with the Lloyd royal family behind you, which is a massive powerhouse. But I'm sure you've already realized that even a giant like the Lloyd royal family still has moments where its hands are tied."
