Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

---- Chapter 2468 On the other side of the compound, Titus stormed out of his office and kicked open the door to Violet Gardens. Violet Gardens was the most elegant courtyard in Sovereign's Apothecary, and it was also Brielle's private residence. Dressed in a soft lavender gown, Brielle leaned lazily by the window, gently teasing a bird perched on her hand. The moment she saw Titus barge in, her brows knitted in displeasure. She said coldly, "Titus, not only did you come here uninvited, but you also broke in.

Do you think your so-called seniority gives you that right now?" Titus' expression was thunderous as he strode closer, stopping only a few feet away from her. Brielle's tone turned icy. "Titus, have | been giving you too much leeway? What now? Are you planning to attack me?" Titus roared, "Don't play dumb! Tell me, what's going on between you and Andrew?" Brielle blinked, then laughed bitterly. "What's going on between us? What could there possibly be? You already drove him away. There's nothing left to talk about." ---- "Stop lying!" Titus shouted again, his voice trembling with fury.

" You and Andrew are having an affair, aren't you? Have you no shame left, Brielle? Do you have any idea what Julius would do if he found out?" Brielle's patience snapped. Her lavender gown swayed though there was no breeze, and her eyes narrowed dangerously." Where did you hear such vile gossip? And what does my life have to do with Julius? Unless you explain yourself right now, Titus, you won't be walking out of Violet Gardens alive." Titus sneered, eyes blazing. "Fine. I'll make sure you can't deny it any longer. You and Andrew are lovers, aren't you? I'm disappointed in you, Brielle.

You're playing with fire, and this... whatever it is between you two, it's unnatural. It'll destroy you both in the end." With a deafening crack, Brielle's patience shattered. She raised her hand and struck out through the air, a surge of power exploding from her palm straight toward Titus' face. He gasped and flipped backward just in time to dodge it. The air shrieked as the energy tore past him. When he landed, a small violet dagger was already pressed against his throat. One step closer, and she could have gutted him. You..." Titus stammered, his lips trembling.

---- Brielle's expression was hidden behind her veil, but her violet eyes gleamed cold. She hissed, "You've crossed the line, Titus. I'm letting you go this once for the sake of our shared past, but if you ever insult me again, | won't show mercy next time. You know who | am. "My fate was sealed long ago... | was never meant to belong to anyone. Andrew is indeed an exceptional man, but what | feel for him is respect, nothing more. He's a junior | admire, not a lover." She continued, "After what happened all those years ago, you should know | could never be with another man, you fool.

Next time you come accusing me, make sure you're absolutely certain, or I'll make sure you never leave this place alive." Sweat rolled down Titus' temple as he swallowed hard. "B- Brielle, | overstepped... Please, just put the dagger down. That little blade of yours could slit my throat with the slightest slip." Brielle gave a sharp huff and pulled back the small dagger, spinning it in her fingers before slipping it neatly back into her sleeve. It was her personal weapon; swift, precise, and deadly. Titus knew that with her skills, even a martial emperor would fall if they crossed her.
