Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 3221

Andrew nodded and said, "Mr. Reyes Senior, whether or not you side with me, I'll still win. I won't hold it against the Reyes family if you don't. The reason, naturally, is Valerie."

Finnegan snorted coldly. "That's all you have to say? Aren't you being a bit too arrogant? Andrew, you should know that I was once famous for my arrogance. But you're even more arrogant than I ever was. Is that appropriate?"

Andrew laughed heartily. "Mr. Reyes Senior, you've got it wrong. Your past arrogance was indeed arrogance. But my current arrogance isn't arrogance at all. I actually have this capability. I'm just stating facts, so it can't be called arrogance. If I really wanted to be arrogant, I wouldn't have come to the Reyes residence at all. I'd just announce to all of Holtrien that I'll take down Guillermo solo, without bothering with all these complications."

Finnegan fell into silence.

After quite a while, he clapped his hands and said with a bitter smile, "Alright, kid, you've convinced me. You're not arrogant, and you're more formidable than any arrogant person could ever be. If this were you from two years ago, I definitely wouldn't give you a second glance. But now, I can't see through you.

"Though that doesn't matter. Guillermo's reaction will be my gauge. The fact that you've pushed our all-powerful National Advisor to his wits' end proves that your abilities are terrifying."

Andrew said coolly, "So that means Guillermo has already made the first move to win over the Reyes family?"

Finnegan nodded. "That's right. Guillermo offered great benefits, wanting the Reyes family to stand on his side. But I refused, since neutrality has always been my family's stance. This time is different, though. You've shown me hope."

Andrew asked with interest, "Oh? What kind of hope would that be?"
