The moment Andrew stepped out, Dorothy and the others perked up with excitement, believing their plan had worked.
Giovanni, unable to hold back, hurried forward and tried to slip past Andrew to sneak a look inside and see what kind of scene awaited.
Andrew shifted to block him and said calmly, "Ms. Easterling wore herself out, and she needs more rest. Please don't disturb her."
Giovanni was burning with jealousy and remarked sarcastically, "Mr. Lloyd, you're unexpectedly so considerate. What a fine gentleman."
Even though his tone was bitter, he did not dare push his luck and peek inside.
Valerie was furious and glared at Andrew with hurt in her eyes. The latter forced himself to ignore the uncomfortable looks from the three women and turned to Dorothy.
He said, "Madam Fontaine, I have fulfilled your condition. We can leave the sect now, right?"
Dorothy smiled and replied, "There's no need to rush off just yet. Mr. Lloyd, may I go in and check on Charlotte? We wouldn't want her body overworked."
Andrew nodded and said, "Go ahead."
A few moments later, Dorothy came back out wearing a look of pure delight.
Charlotte was still flushed and asleep, her internal energy surging visibly beneath her skin, and the sheets were messy. Although there were no obvious signs left behind, it was not hard to imagine what encounter had taken place.
Still, Dorothy felt puzzled, because Andrew seemed remarkably composed. Harmony Sect's techniques were not a mild thing. Even the strongest, most vigorous man would walk out of a session looking like a hollowed-out shell, with his energy, focus, and vitality all crashed to the floor.
Even high-level martial artists came out glassy-eyed and unsteady, yet Andrew looked exactly the same as when he went in.
Dorothy thought for a moment, then her joy deepened. It seemed Andrew was an exceptionally rare and powerful cultivation partner.
If Charlotte, and even she herself, could make use of him for years or even decades, how much would their power grow?
Her gaze toward Andrew became more suggestive.
Andrew pretended not to notice.
After resting briefly at Harmony Sect, Dorothy acted decisively and immediately ordered all disciples to head down the mountain and make for Azure Gate.
