Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

---- Chapter 2160 Cassandra was the first to notice something wrong. "Carlos, what's going on with you? Why does your face look so pale all of a sudden?" Sofia, still confused, asked with concern. "Carlos, are you feeling unwell? If you're not feeling good, get some rest. Don't get yourself worked up just because of good news, my boy." She still thought he was just too excited about the supposed five -billion-dollar acquisition. However, Carlos ignored everyone. He walked straight up to Andrew and suddenly dropped to his knees with a loud thud." Mr. Lloyd, I-I'm sorry!

| was blind and failed to recognize who you really are. I'm sorry, so sorry!" He slapped his own face hard, again and again, while begging forgiveness. The entire Garcia family froze in shock. Sofia frowned in disbelief. "Carlos, get up right now! What are you doing? You shouldn't be kneeling like this!" Cassandra cried out, "Honey, what's wrong with you? Why are you kneeling to him?" Carlos snapped. "Stay out of this! Don't try to stop me! Mr. Lloyd ---- is the one who wanted to acquire my company.

| offended him earlier, and for that | deserve to die!" The whole room erupted in gasps, and every pair of eyes turned to Andrew. Patrick's hand shook so badly that his newspaper slipped to the floor. "Mr. Lloyd? Carlos, are you sure?" Carlos sobbed miserably. "I'm sure... 100% sure. It was my fault! | was blind! Mr. Carney just told me everything! He really is the King of Gabo Creek, the ruler of both the underworld and the upper circles there!" Patrick and Sofia both swallowed hard, staring at Andrew in disbelief and fear.

Cassandra went pale, her lips moving as if to argue, but no words came out. Then, the house phone rang sharply. Patrick picked it up. "Steve, what is it? If it's nothing urgent, | really can't talk right now. Steve Austin, his longtime friend and a well-known businessman in Terror Town, spoke quickly. "Patrick, did Chantelle bring home a Mr. Andrew Lloyd?" Patrick froze. "Uh... yes, but how do you know that?" ---- Steve scolded him. "Why didn't you tell me sooner?! Just now, people from the Somaeth Chamber of Commerce called me asking for your address. At first, | was terrified.

Why would such a huge organization want to contact me? "Then | realized it was to find your place. They're on their way to your house right now to pick up Mr. Lloyd!" Patrick hung up, his shock only deepening. Chantelle's boyfriend was not some small-timer. He was a juggernaut! He knew very well that the Chamber dominated the whole eastern region with Terror Town at its core. Their chairman, Freddie Hawkins, was once the richest man in the Somaeth area, a titan who stood at the top of the business world. And now even Freddie was being stirred, all because of Andrew.

Combined with Carlos's earlier confession, Patrick finally understood that Andrew was not bluffing. He really was the King of Gabo Creek. Chantelle's choice of man was extraordinary. 2 Sofia no longer dared to act haughtily. Looking at Andrew nervously, she forced a smile. "Um... Andy... You must be hungry, right?" 2
