---- Chapter 2513 "Andrew''s out! Look, it''s him!" From the side of the road, Theon and Mika, who had been waiting in the car, leaned toward the window and waved for the others to look. They watched as Andrew walked out of the Iron Sword Sect''s main gate with Augustin beside him, bothughing and chatting like old friends. At one point, Andrew even patted Augustin''s shoulder. Instead of getting annoyed, Augustin smiled back and nodded along, lookingpletely agreeable. "Mr.
Orben, does this mean the Iron Sword Sect isn''t going to hold Andrew ountable for his trick?" Mika was confused and turned to ask Theon, who was sitting in the back seat. Theon did not respond, his expression frighteningly grim. "Mr. Orben!" Mika tured around and called out again. Theon suddenly exploded. "Stop staring and drive! We''re going to meet with the Robertson family. Damn it, what the hell was the Iron Sword Sect thinking? Looks like they bought into that punk''s lies." Mika was dumbfounded. She asked in disbelief, "Wait, Mr.
Orben, are you saying the Iron Sword Sect, our major client, was ---- stolen by Andrew?" Theon''s face twitched, but he said nothing. The facts were right in front of him, and saying anything more would just be pping himself in the face. Mika was pretty good at reading the room. Seeing Theon''s expression, she immediately understood that even he was out of options. The Iron Sword Sect had actually been convinced by Andrew. This was a contract worth over a billion dors a year. Watching it slip away feltpletely surreal to Mika. What did Andrew have that she did not?
What made him so special? "Mr. Orben, don''t worry. The Owens family and the Robertson family go way back. The Iron Sword Sect might not know what''s good for them, but we''ll definitely be able to close the deal with the Robertson family," Mika said, trying tofort Theon. Theon''s face darkened as he said coldly, "Cut the crap and just get us to the Robertson residence. That little bastard is actually bing a real threat to Sovereign''s Apothecary now.
Looks like we''ll have to get rid of him." ---- Securing the Iron Sword Sect had been somewhat nerve- wracking, but it was still within Andrew''s expectations Originally, his chances were not that slim. All he needed to do was reveal his identity as a ninth-grade supreme alchemist. With that, someone like Devin from the Iron Sword Sect could not help but be tempted. Medicine God''s Covenant might not be worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as Sovereign''s Apothecary right now, but Andrew was different because he was a ninth-grade supreme alchemist who could crush Sovereign''s Apothecary.<fn8bab> Checktest chapters at ?ovelFind</fn8bab>
In this era, a ninth-grade supreme alchemist was the absolute peak. In the path of alchemy, he had already reached the throne. Forget Sovereign''s Apothecary, evenpared to the Divine Alchemists, Andrew had nothing to fear when it came to alchemy. "It''s time to head over to the Robertson residence..." Andrew muttered, feeling somewhat annoyed. The Robertson family was one of Chetvine''s five great ns, and Andrew really did not want to deal with them. If it came to a fight, he would prefer to settle things directly and cleanly. That would be the most satisfying.
---- Now he had to interact with the Robertson family, and even humble himself to do business with them For someone with Andrew''s personality, this felt somewhat masochistic. Yet, there was no helping it. Sometimes you just had to y the game. When the day finally came that he could do whatever he wanted, life might actually lose some of its fun. Pulling out his phone, Andrew called Isabelle. "Belle, are you home?"<style>
