Chapter 186 Jerry immediately refused , Im sorry , but I wont do something that risky .


    Andrew is obviously very close to Ms.


    Rhodes .


    If I harm him shell never forgive me .


    I work for the Rhodes family to secure my future , not to be your hitman .


    Then , Jerry disappeared into the woods , ignoring Michaels furious expression .


    Bane , since Jerry is too scared , why dont you take care of that guy yourself ? Eliminate him before he causes more problems ! Michael suggested .


    Banes face darkened with uncertainty as he replied , We cant rush this … One wrong move , and we lose everything .


    We now know Tracia was killed by at least a junior grandmaster level fighter , and that person might be backing Andrew .


    If thats the case , moving against him carelessly would only bring us trouble .


    Michael was frustrated by how his sure victory had turned into aplete defeat , and he shouted , Bane , are you afraid of that worthless pretty boy too ? Bane scoffed .


    Dont be ridiculous ! Ive dominated Gabo Creeks martial arts world for decades I fear no one , especially not in a small town like Jayrodale .


    Lets wait until we get back to town before making our next move .


    Michael desperately wanted to confront Andrew immediately , but hecked the necessary strength himself .

    Lauren ignored his protests , keeping her arm linked with his while pressing close , seemingly unconcerned about their physical contact .


    Dr.

    I have to thank you properly youve helped me so much .


    e , why Seeing there was no escape , Andrew gave up and asked , Even if you want to thank me , bring me here ? This ce is Weller family territory , isnt it ? Lauren smiled , her ponytail swaying , Dr.


    Lloyd , Im about to buy over Oakridge Club .


    As my thank you gift , youll be its new owner .


    For me ? Would the Weller family be alright with it ? Andrew asked , surprised .


    He knew the Oakridge Club was a famous and profitable high end establishment in Jayrodale , owned by Harvey .


    The Weller family is drowning in debt , Lauren exined .


    Theyre having to sell assets just to stay afloat .


    With the Rhodes family doing so well , its the perfect time to make a move and get a good deal .


    .


    1/2 Andrew understood immediately Harveys falle investments had be the final straw for the Weller familys financial struggles .


    The once nighty family had been reduced to selling off their properties .


    Inside the Oakridge Club , the former grandeur had faded to dim lighting .


    Francesca and Laurens assistant , Eunice , were waiting for them Are the Weller family representatives here ? Lauren asked Eunice , Eunice looked ufortable and replied , Yes , but Miss , its not just their representative who came … Lauren was unbothered .


    Who else? That good for nothing Harvey ? Francesca cut in , Lauren , you should be careful .


    Not only is Harvey here , but Mr.


    Weller Senior , the head of the Weller family , has alsoe .
