Chapter 408 Though Tiana imed she wanted to see if Andrew was as exceptional as Lauren described , she inwardly dismissed the possibility.


    In her mind , Jayrodale was just a backwater pond full of small fish no hidden talent could emerge from such a ce .


    Meanwhile , today was Andrews appointment with Ernest .


    He had to get his hands on the Aurora Lotus , and since Ernest had been unreasonable and thrown his weight around , Andrew decided he would not be polite either .


    Andrew , the prince of the Lloyd dynasty who survived until today , was never a pushover .


    Sometimes , it took a viin to deal with another viin .


    Driving his G Wagon to Natashas ce in West End , Andrew was surprised to find Ernest already there .


    He had brought two bodyguards a man , and a woman .


    Hey kid , didnt you say Id be fatally ill and dying today ? Ernest taunted with disdain , puffing on his cigar with his feet propped up on the table in a show of dominance .


    But look at me now arent I alive and kicking ? Ernest sneered and continued , Ill tell you what I spentst night with some hot foreign girls , and Im still in perfect shape ! His female bodyguard yfully chided him at thisment .


    Andrew understood immediately this seductive woman was not really a bodyguard but Ernests mistress .


    Not that he cared .


    After all , these wealthy heirs were known for their scandalous private lives .


    Dont be hasty , Ernest , Andrew replied calmly .


    When I said three days , I meant t e full days .


    The day has just begun .


    Anything could happen at any moment .


    Ernest scoffed .


    Tough talk , kid .


    If cheap tricks could scare me , I wouldnt have made my reputation all these years .


    Ernest , did you bring the Aurora Lotus today ? Natasha asked with a forced smile .


    Of course I did , Ernest replied , his eyes gleaming .


    But Natasha , have you considered my offer ? Spend one night with me , and this rare medicinal herb is yours at a fair price .


    Though disgusted , Natasha kept smiling and said , Ernest , Im a widow you shouldnt pursue me .


    It would tarnish your reputation .


    Ernest brazenly replied , Thats nothing ! History is full of scandalous affairs , and nowadays , people do far worse .


    Wanting a widow is perfectly normalpared to others depravity , Im practically a saint ! Natasha had enough of this repulsive old pervert and gave Andrew a pleading look .


    Before , when Natasha was not under Andrews protection , he could not interfere too much .


    But now that she was his person , he could not let Ernests shameless behavior slide .


    Chapter 408 Andrew cleared his throat and smiled .


    Ernest , you seem to have quite a thing for widows .
