Chapter 183 Andrew shrugged casually .


    Those are your words , not mine .


    This finally pushed Jerry over the edge as he angrily shouted , You fool ! Stop trying to sow discord ! Ive served the Rhodes family faithfully for over 20 years .


    Do you think your petty .


    words can discredit my loyalty ? In his fury , Jerry turned to Lauren and said respectfully , Ms Rhodes , this pretty boy is insulting me .


    I demand justice .


    Jerry , he just tends to be very direct with his words , Lauren stated diplomatically .


    I know your loyalty to the Rhodes family , so on his behalf , I apologize .


    Jerry let out a cold snort and stormed off with his men , but not before shooting Andrew a murderous re : Andrew , however , maintained his smile ,pletely unfazed .


    Once Jerry was gone , Laurens expression turned ice cold .


    Do you think Jerry was telling the truth ? Id rather believe pigs could fly than trust him , Andrew replied without hesitation .


    Lauren burst intoughter , You can be quite funny sometimes .


    Andrew smiled and continued , At this point , we can almost be certain that Jerry is working with the thieves .


    At the very least , hes notpletely loyal to the Rhodes family or you , Ms.


    Rhodes .


    First Tracia , and now Jerry , Lauren said coldly .


    I dont understand why theyre doing this .


    The Rhodes family has treated them well all these years .


    Modern martial artists often prioritize profit over loyalty , Andrew exined calmly .


    Both Jerry and Tracia are clearly ambitious .


    If Michael has been courting their loyalty behind the scenes , it wouldnt be surprising if theyve switched sides .


    Lauren gave a self deprecating smile .


    No matter how strong I am or what my title is , Im still just a woman .


    The Rhodes family is like any other traditional family it will eventually be handed over to a man .


    Thats why many in the family favor Michael , despite his mediocre abilities and arrogance .


    Even people like Jerry , who act respectful to my face , probably dont take me seriously .


    Dont be discouraged , Ms.


    Rhodes , Andrew said earnestly .


    Just say the word if you need anything .


    Michael and his fellows may be cunning , but Ive never considered them a real threat .


    Laurens face lit up with a radiant smile , So , are you offering to be my knight in shining armor ? Andrew froze , caught off guard by her dazzling smile and alluring red lips .


    He was fully aware she was trying to charm him , so he mentally scolded her for being a tease .


    1/2 Meanwhile , deep in the forest , Andrews Porsche Panamera was almostpletely burned , with only the chassis remaining .


    Beside ity Tracias stiff corpse .


    Two figures emerged from the shadows Michael and the sinister looking Bane .


    Tracias dead ? Who could have done this in this ce full of nothing but farmers ? Michael eximed in disbelief .
