Chapter 1492

    Andrew felt nothing but indifference in his heart. While Kevin wanted to take him out, he had long been nning to destroy the head of the Wrights himself.


    Since Kevin chose to toss away what little was left of their so-called brotherhood, Andrew saw no need to hold back either. If the treasure hunt gave him the right opportunity, he would dly erase Kevin from existence.


    Once he returned to Blumedale, it would be time for Yara to rise to power. From that point on, the Wrights would essentially be working for him.


    Of course, Andrew knew he could not let his guard down around Yara either. It was not about being overly paranoid-it was simply the reality. After all, Yara was not truly one of his people.


    A woman''s heart was a fickle thing, especially when she got a taste of power. Who could say for sure that if Yara managed to rise to the top, she would not turn around and stab him in the back?


    The next day, Kevin called again, urging Andrew to bring thepleted map fragment and head over to the Wright estate. Rafael and Mosby were already getting impatient.


    Andrew agreed readily, saying he would be right there. In reality, he did not take it seriously at all and stayed at Serenity Vi to arrange necessary matters with Dn and Natasha before departure.


    "Dn, take the team. Your job is simple-secure Serenity Vi and keep Lauren and the others safe. As for Natasha, you''reing with me."


    Dn responded, "Mr. Lloyd, don''t worry. If anything happens to the threedies, I''ll offer up my own head!"


    Andrew rolled his eyes. "Don''t make such bold promises. Right now, you can''t even beat Aspen."


    Dn flushed red with embarrassment and scratched his head awkwardly.


    Natasha clicked her tongue and grumbled, "You spend all day messing around with those threedies and forget all about me. But when there''s a dangerous mission, I''m suddenly useful again. Darling, you''ve changed. You''ve be cold and practical."


    Seeing she was not just joking but actually looked a little hurt, Andrew felt a pang of guilt. "That''s why I''m only taking you with me."


    To be fair, Natasha was a remarkably understanding woman. These past few weeks, Andrew had been doting on Lauren, Francesca, and Aspen nonstop,pletely neglecting her.


    Yet, Natasha had never onceined. She kept to herself, training with Dn in the basement, and even stayed out of the main house so she would not disturb him and thedies.


    "I''m just a servant, after all. You can use me however you want, Mr. Lloyd."


    Seeing that Andrew''s tone had softened, the pretty widow felt a little better. Still, her words dripped with jealousy-she clearly wanted to be part of the fun too.


    She would not mind turning their trio into a foursome and testing if Andrew could level up from a ''three-time champ'' to a ''four-time legend'' in one night.


    With everything at home handled, Andrew picked up the phone and called Tiana. "Mrs. Rhodes, it''s time. The final stage is here. You and Mr. Rhodes might want to discuss whether your family''s joining in."


    Tiana replied coldly, "It''s already discussed. I''ve just been waiting for you to say the word. I''ll bring someone over and meet you at Serenity Vi in ten minutes."


    After hanging up, Andrew gave a wry smile.


    Tiana''s determination to join the treasure hunt was unwavering. Then again, it made sense as she had always been the more aggressive force in the Rhodes family.


    While she might agree to the Rhodes family sitting out this opportunity; she would absolutely never agree to not participating


    herself Plus, she had now

    mastered martirts, reaching martial king realm.


    Her participation seemed natural enough. After all, she did have the strength topete for the treasure.


    Ten minutester, Tiana showed up at Serenity Vi with only Jerry by her side.


    Andrew was surprised. "Mrs. Rhodes, just the two of you? What about Mr. Rhodes and the rest of your family''s fighters?"


    Tiana''s expression was t.


    "Jameson''s not cut out forbat, so I''m not letting hime. And as for the others we don''t need them. We''re going after treasure, not taking a vacation. There will be danger, maybe even life or death. Having a crowd doesn''t help."


    Andrew nodded. "You''re right. Alright then, let''s get in the car."


    Jerry drove an SUV over and opened the door for Tiana.


    However, Tiana waved him off. "I''m riding with Andrew. You''re taking Madam Vostokoff''s vehicle."


    Natasha was just about to hop into the passenger seat with Andrew. She had already daydreamed about getting frisky on the road, maybe even some adventurous fun However, Tiana''s interruptionmade her face fallpletely, and she looked unwilling.


    Tiana scoffed and pulled open the front door, sliding into the seat beside Andrew.


    "A servant should know her ce."
