Chapter 458 as Dean exined , In all my years in Gabo Creek , Ive never seen anyone as extraordinary as Andrew .


    Whats even more terrifying is that he clearly wasnt using his full strength against Mr.


    Lincoln .


    Watching his spine chilling moves , I cant help but wonder if he might have had something to do with As death .


    Before Dean could continue , Rodney cut him off with an angry roar , Shut up ! No wonder youre a lost dog yourepletely useless , building up others while tearing down our own reputation ! Depending on Rodneys hospitality , Dean could not protest the insults , but a venomous glint shed in his eyes .


    Rodney seethed .


    Ive never been humiliated like this in my life .


    And its obvious Lauren has a thing for Andrew .


    Ive pursued her for years without getting so much as a nce , while she probably cant wait to jump into his bed .


    While Rodney stewed in anger , a student hurried in and said , Mr.


    Sanford , the debt collectors .


    have arrived .


    Rodneys face twisted with rage .


    Throw them out ! Beat them to a pulp if you have to ! Theyre just a bunch of nobodies ! The student hesitated before adding , Mr.


    Sanford , there are two women leading the group , and they seem pretty formidable .


    Rodney frowned .


    Two women ? Who are they ? One says shes Aspen Stevens from Bridgefields , and the other is Christina Stevens , the renowned CEO from Jayrodale .


    Hearing their names , Rodneys eyes lit up as he licked his lips .


    Well , well , it seems fortune is on my side today .


    Lets go meet these lovelydies .


    If theyre not here for anything important , maybe Ill suggest they y a little two women , one man game with me ! The crowd of his cronies erupted into lecherousughter as they followed him out .


    In the academys main hall , Aspen and Christina stood casually , ignoring the offered seats and taking in the decor .


    Christina frowned and said , Aspen , Madde Martial Academy has always operated in the gray area between legal and illegal .


    Mr.


    Sanford has a pretty bad reputation .


    The fact that he hasnt shown up yet feels suspicious .


    Do you think theyre plotting something ? Aspen continued studying the painting on the wall and smiled .


    Christie , you worry too much .


    Its broad daylight , and given our status , handling a brute like Rodney would be childs y , despite his reckless nature .


    Chapter 438  Rodney entered with his group , wearing a broad smile .


    Ladies , what brings you to our humble academy ? His eyes lingered inappropriately on their striking features .


    Aspen did not even nce at Rodney .


    She continued admiring the painting , her tone calm butmanding .


    Mr.


    Sanford , Ill cut to the chase .


    Im here for one reasorr only either hand over Dean or return the money you owe me .


    She turned slightly , her gaze sharp as steel .


    Ill say it once .


    Think carefully before you answer .


    Her confidence and no nonsense attitude were palpable , leaving no room for argument or negotiation .
