Chapter 566  Andrew responded calmly , Mrs.


    Rhodes , youre quite funny , Guests like these donte just because of money ! Tiana nced around the scene , taking in the notable faces Hmm , Impressive .


    Dn and Natasha , the two ruling powers of Jayrodale , are here .


    Cedric and Francesca showed up too .


    Even Mr.


    Thatcher made an appearance.


    Mr.


    Lloyd , you certainly have influence .


    Lauren beamed with pride and interjected , Dr.


    Lloyd has a widework .


    He once saved Mr.


    Thatchers life .


    Tianas smile quickly faded , and she sneered .


    Its all because of Marvins connections .


    Theyre just here to keep up appearances .


    You might not see it , Lauren , but that doesnt mean Im blind to whats really going on .


    Just then , a sleek Rolls Royce quietly pulled up by the curb , An elderly man dressed in a distinguished robe stepped out , immediately drawing a stir from the crowd .


    Is that Mr.


    Yates ? Wow ! Even the wealthiest man in Jayrodale showed up to support Moonlit Apothecary .


    Yeah , and Mrs.


    Rhodes from Rhodes Corporation is here top .


    This ce has some serious backing ! Feels like a battle of titans … Too bad for the guy running this ce .


    Hes just a doctor from Jayrodale General Hospital .


    The big shots might be here , but none truly care about him , The atmosphere shifted entirely as Marvins presence overshadowed Tianas earlier arrival .


    Marvin strode toward Tiana , his voice warm and inviting .


    Mrs.


    Rhodes ! Its been a while .


    Youre as stunning as ever .


    Tiana returned a cool smile .


    And you , Mr.


    Yates , are clearly thriving .


    Congrattions on grooming such a remarkable … chess piece .


    Hed make a fine sessor for Wealthroller Investments .


    Marvin blinked , caught off guard .


    Chess piece ? Im not sure I follow , Mrs.


    Rhodes .


    What are you suggesting ? Tianas gaze flicked toward Andrew with a knowing smirk Oh ,e now , Mr.


    Yates .


    You can y dumb with Lauren , but not with me .


    Marvin nced between her and Andrew , his face remaining neutral .


    Mrs.


    Rhodes , youre mistaken .


    Im here today for the same reason as you just to celebrate the opening of Moonlit Apothecary.


    Andrew sighed , visibly annoyed .


    Marvin , please make sure Mrs.


    Rhodes is taken care of .


    Lets keep things moving , yeah ? His tone made it clear he was fed up .


    Tianas penchant for making baseless assumptions and attachingbels to him was starting to wear thin .


    If she were not Laurens mother , he might have already asked her to leave .


    Marvin chuckled obediently .


    Of course .


    Mrs.


    Rhodes , this way , please .


    Tianas eyes narrowed slightly in suspicion as she felt something did not add up .


    She wondered if she was wrong about their rtionship .


    After all , why was Andrew giving Marvin orders like that and why was Marvinplying so easily ? Hmph .


    Marvin and Andrew .


    You think your little act can fool me ? Tiana thought coldly as she followed Marvin to the VIP area .


    Theyre ying some twisted game , but I wont let Lauren be a pawn in their schemes .


    She bit her lip in frustration , her thoughts racing .


    The high society families in Jayrodale had always been locked in -subtle battles with Marvin , the outsider turned mogul .


    For her , this event was not just a ceremony but another move in that ongoing game of power and influence .


    Nheless , Tiana was confident that the Rhodes family would not fall into Marvins hand , especially with her Chapter 566
