---- Chapter 2813 Han lookedpletely trapped, not knowing what to say. Just then, a faint cough came from behind him as Roman finally walked in. He did have an air of mystical wisdom about him, but the ck mole at the corner of his mouth and the single long hair sticking out of it ruined his entire image. Instead, he looked magnanimous at first nce but sleazy and venomous underneath. "Hello, I am Roman Lawrence. Nice to meet you both," he said with a friendly smile Valerie replied tly, "Mr. Lawrence, you finally decided to show yourself.


    We came here asking for Mount Lourneau''s help, so whatever terms you require, just name them." Roman gave a modestugh. "Ms. Reyes, you''re joking. Mount Lourneau is a respected sect in the martial world, and when we help others, we do it out of goodwill, not for profit." Valerie nodded. "That''s good to hear. Then please, save Andrew!" Roman''s gaze immediately fell on Andrew, and Andrew looked back at him. That calm gaze inexplicably made Roman''s heart skip a beat. ---- Andrew clearly understood the severity of his condition, yet he still remained calm.


    Roman silently admitted that Andrew truly was a rare talent, although fate clearly had no intention of letting him live long. With a troubled expression, he said to Andrew, "I''ve already looked into your condition, but unfortunately, Mount Lourneaucks the ability to help you!" Valerie erupted in anger. ''If you can''t help, then why did you drag your feet and wait until now to show up? What''s your game?" Andrew waved his hand.


    "Valerie, let him finish." Roman said regretfully, "Mount Lourneau does have miraculous methods to heal the injured and save lives, but your condition is something you should understand yourself. Your meridians are almostpletely severed, and your energy core ispletely dried up." He continued, "Keeping you alive is easy enough, but restoring you fully? I''m afraid I''m not capable of that, not even a little." Valerie had been seething with rage, but when she turned and saw Andrew''s condition, she suddenly felt like crying. She said, " Andrew, don''t worry.


    No matter what, I''ll find a way to help you." She rushed over and grabbed Andrew''s hand, her touch incredibly gentle. ---- Andrew shook his head and smiled. "Valerie, don''t worry. I''m not discouraged!" Looking at Roman, Andrew asked, "May I meet Mr. Johnston?" Roman shook his head. "That''s not possible! Mr. Johnston is in seclusion." Andrew said, "I can wait." Roman still shook his head. "It''ll be at least half a year, and that''s just my guess. The actual timeline is uncertain." Andrew could not help but frown, Valerie, on the other hand, had reached her limit.


    She snapped, " You old fraud, I think you''re doing this on purpose! You''ve been making excuses since yesterday! You dodged us yesterday, and now you''re making excuses again? Mount Lourneau might be powerful in the martial world, but honestly, I don''t give a damn!" Roman smiled bitterly. "Ms. Reyes, your temper really is something. Everything I''ve said is the truth. Mount Lourneau will always respect the Reyes family. But if we can''t help, we simply can''t." Andrew was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Valerie, let''s go." ---- Valerie looked shocked.


    "We''re leaving?" Andrew said calmly, "That''s right, let''s go. We''ll find another way. Valerie snorted coldly, picked up Andrew, and prepared to leave.
