Chapter 536 Troy , who had been on the verge of losing consciousness , seemed to regain his spirit upon hearing Andrews words .
Trembling all over , he looked up with tears of gratitude .
Thank you , Mr.
Lloyd ! I cant thank you enough ! Michaels face darkened , and he shot Andrew a questioning re .
Whats going on with Troy ? And whats with the prescription you gave him ? Andrew smirked .
Oh , you didnt know ? Mr.
MacAfee here caught himself a pretty nasty case of an STD -so bad hisher regions have started to rot .
He came groveling to me , begging for treatment .
Michaels face went pale .
What ? That idiot actually managed to catch … that ? As someone who was no stranger to questionable flings himself , Michael suddenly felt an ufortable chill .
This news hit a little too close to home .
Lauren sneered .
He got what he deserved .
Messing around with Rubynded him in this mess .
And when it got too bad , he had no choice but to beg Mr.
Lloyd for help .
Under Mr.
Lloyds pressure , he confessed everything about his dealings with Ruby , including how he leaked the forms .
Otherwise , do you think he wouldve admitted to stealing thepanys secrets so easily ? Michael shuddered at the thought .
A wave of relief washed over him as he realized how close he hade to making a fatal mistake .
He had considered making a move on Ruby himself , tempted by her allure .
Now , he silently thanked his lucky stars he had not followed through .
That womans a walking biohazard , he thought grimly .
Then , his eyes flicked to Troy , his expression a mixture of disdain and pity .
What a tragic idiot .
Just as he was processing this disaster , amotion erupted outside the office .
The gathered employees quickly parted , lining up along the corridor with looks of respect and fear etched across their faces .
Eunice came rushing into the room , her face pale as a sheet .
Her voice trembled as she announced , Ms.
Rhodes … Mrs.
Rhodes is here ! She just arrived at the building ! Laurens expression tightened as she immediately nced toward the door .
Michaels face also changed , and he quicklyposed himself , rushing toward the hallway to greet her .
Aunt Tiana , you shouldve let us know you wereing .
I wouldve personallye to wee you ! Michael said with an ingratiating smile .
Through the crowd stepped a stunning woman with a frosty demeanor .
She bore a striking resemnce to Lauren , though her aura was far more imposing.
Following her were a dozen bodyguards , including Jerry , who had been knocked unconscious by Andrew not long ago .
Mrs.
Rhodes , wee ! the gathered employees greeted in unison , bowing slightly .
However , Andrew remained seated , his gaze fixed on the woman with quiet curiosity .
He could Immediately tell from her cold andmanding presence that Tiana was no ordinary person .
One of the senior executives , who had previously been knocked out by Andrew during a confrontation , 7/2 Chapter 536 red at him and barked , Andrew , how dare you remain seated ? Show your respect to Mrs.
Rhodes and greet her properly ! Andrew replied with an even tone , Im a board member of Rhodes Corporation , not a servant of the Rhodes family .
Why should I bow ? The executives face flushed with anger .
Michael snapped , Andrew , watch your tone ! Rhodes Corporation is part of the Rhodes familys holdings , and Mrs.
Rhodes is no ordinary person .
She oversees all Rhodes Corporation operations in Jayrodale , holding ultimate authority .
More importantly , she is the rightful wife of the Rhodes family head our matriarch ! You are obligated to show respect ! Andrew shrugged nonchntly .
Apologies , but I dont bow to anyone .
My backs never been particrly flexible for that kind of thing .
Besides , he added with a faint smile , I dont bow to anyone whether its the matriarch of the Rhodes family , a general from Holtrien , or the head of some grand aristocratic family .
Its just not my style .
