---- Chapter 2754 Andrew nodded and said, "Anytime works for me." Mylo had always been a pure martial artist, through and through. He had spent his entire life honing his skills out in the world. The future of the Robertson family was meant to fall into Emir''s hands. He was born to be a family head because he was smooth- talking, calcting, loved to argue, looked great, had a high EQ, and was unbeatable at charming women. With someone like that running things, the Robertson family would neverck a sessor. Mylo was the perfect candidate to be the Robertson family''s hidden de".


    He did not need to do anything else but just be the family''s sword. This is the mostmon structural setup among Chetvinde''s great houses. In these families, brothers typically divide roles, with some handling the public face and others maintaining the power behind the scenes. However, not every household could bnce it well because once emotions got tangled, it turned into internal strife and a fight to the death. By now, the arrangement Andrew had in mind was almostplete.


    ---- Following Andrew''s instructions, Sheena took the lead and guided everyone toward the luxury hotel owned by the Lloyd family. No one dared question it, and even strong-willed people like Mylo, mischievous Isabelle, or prodigies like Luna silently followed along. The reason was simple: Sheena earned that position through sheer strength. Andrew recalled that he still had a few old acquaintances in Chetvine. Some had even been childhood partners in crime during their mischievous days, yet time had already changed everyone, so he did not reach out.


    Since he was about to hit the road and head for Mount Lourneau, he used this gathering as a farewell to everyone he still cared about in Chetvine. After hesitating several times, Andrew finally called Valerie. Unfortunately, she did not pick up the first or second time. He knew she was still mad at him, but he honestly had no idea what she was mad about. He told himself the third call would be thest, because if Valerie did not pick up, he would simply stop trying. He had his own pride too. Luckily, she picked up on the third try. ---- "Valerie, I''ll send you the location.


    Come hang out with everyone, because Luna and a bunch of the younger crowd from Chetvine are here, and you know most of them," Andrew said with a smile. Valerie answered tly, "I don''t want to go. I hope you all have fun. Andrew still kept his smile. "Don''t be such a downer. Juste over, alright? I''ll apologize to you, my little princess. Whatever I did to upset you, I''m sorry. Everything was my fault." Valerie''s voice turned cold. "I don''t need your apology. And do you really think you took such good care of me? Do you think you were the one feeling wronged?" Andrew lost patience.


    "Fine then. Juste when you cool off. I''m done talking." Valerie suddenly said, "Andrew, let me ask you something. Why won''t youe to the Reyes residence? My dad kept inviting you, but is your ego really that big? Is his invitation not good enough for you?" Andrew replied helplessly, ''First of all, I''m actually very busy. Second, to bepletely honest, Mr. Reyes Senior and I never really have anything to talk about. And besides, it''s not even a big deal, so what would I be going there for?" Valerie gritted her teeth. "ine told you, right? My dad wants ---- you to marry me.


    You didn''t even think about it and refused immediately, didn''t you?" Andrew sighed. "Why are we circling back to this again? You know I can''t..." Valerie cut him off. "You can''t marry me, right? Great. I don''t want you either. Anyway, Andrew, enjoy your night. Have your happily-ever-after with Luna. I could tell that day that you two had already slept together. "Someone like her giving herself to you means you''re the only ''one she''ll ever choose in this life. As long as you two are happy, you don''t need to care if I live or die.


    Lastly, Andrew, I want to tell you three words." Before Andrew could ask what, Valerie coldly growled, "I hate you. Then the line went dead. Listening to the beeping tone, Andrew could not help but smile bitterly. Dealing with Valerie was honestly harder than dealing with a martial god. Andrew had no idea a massive assassination plot had already been set up against him. Valerie was the key that could have helped him break it ahead of time, but fate had no intention of letting him. ---- Andrew never believed he had feelings for Valerie, yet she was trapped in her ownplicated emotions.


    She loved him, hated him, and could not escape either feeling. Still, this gathering Andrew organized in Chetvine would one day make history. Everyone who attended would eventually be giants who dominated their territories across Holtrien, and the one sitting at the head of the table was their leader, the Lloyd family''s Dragon Prince!<style>
