Chaptér 403 Andrew was taken aback and said , I have no intention of interfering with the Rhodes familys marriage arrangements .


    I just think its unfair to force her into something she doesnt want .


    Marcus smiled knowingly .


    No need to exin so quickly .


    I understand your feelings you want to be the hero who saves the damsel , right ? But think about it : even though youre aplished and young as the deputy chief of Jayrodale General Hospital , the Rhodes family is in apletely different league .


    Marcus continued earnestly , Your concern for Ms.


    Rhodes isnt wrong , but you need to recognize the vast gap between your worlds .


    Lauren is like a rare diamond , and having had her attention should be enough for a lifetime .


    If you push your luck , you might end up getting seriously hurt .


    Andrew could only smile wryly at Marcuss well meaning advice .


    Clearly , Marcus saw him as someone trying to climb the socialdder .


    While the Rhodes family had expanded to Blumedale and their prestige grew daily , Andrew was not impressed .


    He had seen and dealt with far more powerful dynasties , and the Rhodes were hardly intimidating His only concern was Laurens happiness and wishes .


    Well , thats all I wanted to say .


    Remember , if you need my help with anything else , just ask , Marcus said as he stood to leave .


    He added , But regarding Ms.


    Rhodes , try to be realistic .


    Only someone from another prestigious family could be her match .


    People like us will only get hurt if we reach too high .


    Andrew smiled faintly and replied , I believe nothing is impossible for those who are determined .


    Marcus paused , then shook his head with a knowing smile .


    It was clear this young man was not ready to give up , but while dreams were beautiful , reality was often cruel .


    Lauren was from the Rhodes family wealthy , prestigious , and refined .


    Although Andrew was aplished , he could never meet the Rhodes familys standards .


    His pursuit would only lead .


    to humiliation and oppression from the family , After Marcus left , Andrew contemted for a moment before deciding to call Lauren .


    Dr.


    Lloyd , are you missing me ? Its rare for you to call first ! Lauren answered with her usual fiery enthusiasm .


    Andrew chose his words carefully and asked , Ms Rhodes , are you facing any difficultiestely ? Laurenughed and said , Difficulties ? Please , Im the Rhodes heiress what difficulties could I have ? My only problem is waiting for you to be with me .


    1/2  Chapter 40 Andrew persisted , Ms.


    Rhodes , Im serious .


    If youre in trouble , I might be able to help .


    The line went quiet for a moment .


    Finally , Lauren forced augh and said , Okay , I admit Im dealing with some minor issues .


    But dont worry , Dr.


    Lloyd , Ill handle everything soon and see you .


    Just promise youll wait for me and wont fall for anyone else , okay ? Andrew was puzzled .


    Are you sure you dont need my help ? Lauren giggled .


    Of course ! If I cant handle this petty matter , then I dont deserve to be your precious girl , Dr.


    Lloyd ! Andrew conceded .


    Alright then .


    Bye , Ms.


    Rhodes Lauren responded with a few kisses .


    When Andrew hung up after their goodbye , his frown had not eased .


    Just then , Francesca entered his office with an odd expression and said , Andrew , your old me is here at the hospital .
