Chapter 908

Jameson explained, "The reason I support Lauren being with

Andrew, even though I've never met him, is because I believe he

has potential."

'Tiana let out a sharp, mocking laugh. "Potential? Are you serious?

Do you know how many powerful, well-bred men from Blumedale

have lined up to court our daughter? Every single one of them

comes from a prestigious family with an outstanding background

"T'll admit, Andrew has repeatedly surprised me, forcing me to

reevaluate him. But no matter how capable he is, a wise one should

always achieve more. The truth is, Andrew's ceiling is still just this,

tiny town of Jayrodale.

"The Rhodes family has already secured its foothold in Blumedale.

At the very least, Lauren's future should be there too. So tell me,

how can Andrew possibly compare to the heirs of Blumedale's elite

families? How could he ever compete with someone like Joe, a true

once-in-a-generation prodigy?"

Jameson's face darkened slightly. "What's wrong with coming,

from a small place? Have you forgotten-I came from a small town

too."

Tiana's smile turned ice-cold. "And look where that got you.

You're surrounded by enemies, struggling to hold onto your

position while your own brother tries to steal the family headship.

"You're barely keeping the family together in Blumedale, forced to.

exhaust yourself just to maintain some level of influence."

----

Jameson's expression grew colder. "Tiana, you were born into the

Lambert family. You're nearly at the level of a martial king and

were once hailed as an elite of the upper class.

"| know you've always looked down on me. And frankly, I won't

beg for your approval anymore. If the Rhodes family truly falls,

then we'll get a divorce. You can chase the happiness you regretted

Jetting go of all those years ago.""

Tiana's face twisted in fury. "Jameson, you and that brat Lauren

are just trying to make my life miserable, aren't you? I won't raise

ahand against our daughter, but don't think for a second that I

won't slap the hell out of you!"

Jameson let out a sharp laugh. "Go ahead and try! I've put up with

your bullying for years-I've had more than enough!"

'Tiana's anger exploded as she lunged at him, unable to hold back

any longer. Jameson might have been the head of the Rhodes

family, but he was no match for Tiana when it came to martial

prowess.

Within moments, she had him pinned down on the bed, smacking

him around while he let out muffled groans. However, just as

quickly, the situation flipped.

Somehow, the ever-dashing Jameson pulled a fast move and

turned the tables, pinning Tiana beneath him instead.

With a soft click, the lights in the room dimmed.

All that remained was the sound of Tiana's breathy protests. "

Damn it-take it easy! Why are you being so rough..."

----

Jameson let out a dark chuckle. "You've been staying in Jayrodale

while I've been suffering alone in Blumedale, starved and

desperate. Now that I've made the trip here myself, don't think for

a second you're getting out of this without punishment."

Tiana had a naturally fiery temper and never backed down from a

challenge. She bit back, "Oh yeah? Let's see who comes out on top

-your so-called 'punishment' or my boundless endurance!"

Jameson panted heavily, his voice rough. "Once we're done, I need

adamn good night's sleep. Tomorrow, I'm going to take a look at

this Andrew kid myself.

"Let's hope he's at least half as handsome as I am. As for his

abilities, if he's even two-thirds of what I am, I might consider

him worthy."

Tiana let out a bitter scoff. "Even if I let you have your way

tonight, I will never approve of Lauren and Andrew being together.

If you let this happen, how will you deal with the Driscoll family's

wrath? You are my husband-I refuse to let you throw your life

away."

Jameson smirked. "You should worry about surviving my wrath

first..."
