Aspen was speechless.
Andrew had shamelessly milked Derek for all he was worth, then turned around and declared himself the man's loyal sidekick like it was nothing. She honestly had to admit even she could not compete with that level of shamelessness.

"If he does, great. That savesthe trouble of handling this myself. If he doesn't, then it's no big deal. I'll just kill every single one of these Haywood thugs myself." Aspen opened her mouth, but no words cout. This was the Andrew she knew -the devil himself. Ruthless, cold, and always ready to shed blood.
Nonetheless, these were not just any thugs. This was the elite private force of the Haywoods, one of the Five Apex Families.
Could Andrew really take them on alone? Just then, Seth sneered and stepped forward. "Andrew, last tyou smashed a bottle over my damn head! You humiliatedin front of Ms. Sinclair and all those heavy hitters!" He added, "Today, you're paying for that in blood! Unless you drop to your knees and bark like a dog, I swear I'll change my last nto yours!" Andrew replied flatly, "Last time, you were asking for it. You picked the wrong guy to mess with, so yeah, you got what you deserved. As for changing your nto mine? Please. I don't need another useless guy sharing my surname." Seth's eyes flared with rage. "Shut your mouth! I'm giving you one chance! First, hand Aspen over and make her my woman! Second, transfer your company, SuprCapital Group, to me! If you play nice and do both, maybe I'll let you crawl back to Jayrodale with your life." Andrew laughed out loud. "So that's what this is really about-my multi-billion dollar company, huh? And you want my woman and my money. Damn, Mr. Haywood, your wish list is something else. Tell me... you think God would sign off on this plan?" Seth folded his arms and snorted. "I don't care what God thinks. I only care about your answer. So, tell me-are you handing over the girl and the company, or do you want to die right here, right now?" His eyes turned murderous. If Andrew said one wrong word, he would give the kill order immediately.
Andrew tilted his head. "Fine. I've made my choice." "What is it?" "I choose... for you to eat shit!" Rage exploded across Seth's face, and he roared, "Take him down! Break this bastard-cripple him on the spot!" He truly could not understand where Andrew's confidence cfrom. The Haywoods' guards were not nobodies- any one of them was at the junior grandmaster level, and there were dozens of them.
With dozens of elite fighters, all going in at once, Seth wondered if Andrew was just in a hurry to die.
Andrew's expression turned ice cold,

Sure, he had already sent the m emergency alert to the governor's NO office. However, his favorite méthod had always been the same-brute force. Swift. Simple. Violent.
He never had any beef with the Haywoods until now. However, Seth had made it personal. He wante Aspen, he wanted the company, and he saw Andrew as just ssmall-town nobody he could stomp on.
Well, if they all thought a guy from Jayrodale was easy prey, then m y prey, andrew was about to teach this capital trash a lesson they would never forget.
