---- Chapter 2230 Aspen said tly, "It doesn''t mean anything. I just want to wait for death. I don''t need any treatment. You people in the military are so powerful, deciding who lives or dies whenever you feel like it, dragging people off as you please." She lowered her eyes. "Poor Natasha and I... we just got to Chetvine, and we have no one to rely on. The only one we have is Andrew, and right now, he doesn''t even know if we''re dead or alive.
If we really die here, I don''t know how he''s supposed to go on, and even thinking about it makes me feel sad for him." Her eyes reddened as she spoke. Luna knew Aspen was angry and throwing a tantrum, but she had no choice but to endure it. After all, she understood Andrew''s personality. Kyrie had pushed things too far. If Andrew learned his women had been hurt, he would storm the military headquarters without hesitation, and even Philip might not be able to contain the fallout. Kyrie grew impatient. "Luna, why waste time talking to them? They''re just two shameless women.
We''ll use them to pressure Andrew to hand over the ckstar Crystal. If he refuses, we kill them, so he''ll learn our military isn''t to be messed with." ---- Aspen chuckled, blood seeping from the corner of her mouth. " Yes, General Harding is right. So why don''t you just do as he says, General Phn? Kill us now. That way, when Andrew shows up and sees our corpses, I''m sure he''ll do whatever you want." Luna took a deep breath and pressed down her fury. "Ms. Stevens, you should know that I only deal with matters, not personal grudges. I have no feud with you, so why would I want you dead?
Besides, this military isn''t some ce that bullies women for sport. We brought you here only to investigate..." Aspen cut her off with a coldugh. "Investigate? Then what was General Harding''s assault supposed to be? I''ll be honest, I hate you. I hate you more than anyone. Back in Gabo Creek, you looked down on Andrew and acted all high and mighty. "Now that you know he''s the Lloyd family''s Dragon Prince, you fawn and y the part of some generous ally. Sure, you''re a genius, and your family has power and prestige.<fndcb4> Updates are released by Find?Novel</fndcb4>
You''re a female general in Holtrien''s military, which sounds amazing, outshining countless men." Aspen sneered, biting her lip until it bled. "But Luna, stop pretending. When Andrew was at his lowest, you did nothing but look down on him. Now that we''re in Chetvine, you act allpassionate because you see something to gain. Don''t bother sparing us. If you have the guts, kill Natasha and me right ---- now. Let''s see how Andrew reacts when he finds out." Luna froze for a moment, staring at Aspen in disbelief. "As Andrew''s woman, that''s how you see me?" Aspen snorted. "That''s right.
I am a petty woman, a loudmouth. Call me whatever you want, but this is how I see you, and I can''t stand you. I remember everything... Your arrogance, your disdain, the way you treated him. I can be insulted, beaten, or looked down on, but Andrew is my husband, the man I care about most. Whoever wronged him, I''ll never forget it." Aspen''s eyes burned as she continued. "Because in my heart, Andrew is above everything else. He''s easily worth a thousand times over my value. And you, Luna... What are your feelings toward him?
You think of yourself as a good person who wants to be close to him, but have you ever shown sincerity? Did you sacrifice anything? "No, you didn''t. You''re nothing. All you ever thought about was yourself, and that''s why Andrew will never hold a ce for you in his heart. You refuse to face that reality, so today, I''l be the one to show it to you."<style>
