Andrew barked , How dare you use that tone with me ! Do you have a death wish ? Covering his face in luumiliation , Orlon , supported by his followers , scrambled toward the exit of the antiques fair .

He did not want to stay even a second longer , fleeing down the bustling street with his pride in shambles .

Christina hesitated and turned to Aspen .

Aspen , no matter what , Mr.

Kelce is still one of the most prominent figures from Bridgefields .

Are you really not going to check on him after such a humiliating defeat ? Aspens tone was icy .

Check on him ? Not a chance .

It doesnt matter .

Mr.

Kelces fury will be something Andrew absolutely cant handle .

Just wait Mr .

Kelce will definitely come back to settle the score , and Andrews the one whos in real trouble now .

Christina frowned .

She could not help but feel that Andrew had gone too far .

Actions like that did not resolve anything .

They only bred resentment and invited retaliation .

Aspen sneered .

Christina , dont be fooled by Andrews arrogance .

Soon enough , hell learn what it means to pay the price for his recklessness .

Christinas eyes widened in surprise .

Aspen , dont tell me youre planning to challenge Andrew in antique appraisal again ? Aspen smirked confidently .

Whats the fun in that ? The real excitement is about to begin anyway .

The upcoming portion of this event is where the true masters shine , where only those with vision and courage can play .

Meanwhile , on Andrews side , the Jayrodale experts escorted him to a seat of honor with the utmost respect .

Cedric jumped at the chance to claim connections .

Mr.

Lloyd and I go way back .

If any of you want to work with him , you can count on me to make the introductions .

Dont keep this connection to yourself ! Dr.

Aicker , were practically family .

Next time I want to visit Master Lloyd , Ill be counting on .

you to set it up ! Cedrics face lit up with pride as he happily accepted their praises .

Riding the wave of Andrews triumph , Cedric found himself basking in newfound admiration from the antiques community .

E +25 BONUS Francesca crossed her arms , pouting .

Grandpa , stop dragging Andrew into your messes ! Cedric chuckled and said , How is it a mess ? With my relationship with Dr.

Lloyd , this is all perfectly natural .

Francesca stomped her foot in frustration , though her annoyance was tinged with amusement .

Elsie chimed in with a smile .

Ms.

Aicker , try to understand .

Dr.

Aicker has always been passionate about antiques but never really fit into the community .

Thanks to Mr.

Lloyd , hes finally earned his place and a bit of respect .

Francesca paused , her frustration softening .

She had to admit it made sense .

Orion had deceived her grandfather before , and as a renowned doctor In Jayrodale , the humiliation had stung deeply .

With Andrew backing him up and restoring his dignity , Cedrics elation was understandable .

She turned to Andrew with a warm smile .

Andrew , youre truly a jack of all trades , arent you ? On behalf of my grandpa , thank you for stepping in and helping him .

Francesca felt a genuine sense of respect and admiration toward Andrew .

His brilliance in medicine was unmatched , and his skill in martial arts seemed bottomless .

Even in the rarefied world of antiques and collectibles , he had demonstrated expertise far beyond anyones expectations .

She could not help but wonder in awe how on earth he managed to master it all .
