Chapter 3244

    ---- Chapter 3244 Andrew left the Cunningham residence and walked alone down the long street. As he passed through the familiar alleyways, childhood memories surfaced of ying here when he was young Back then, the Lloyd family and the Cunningham families were still very close. Conrad had been everyone''s big brother. He often led a group of kids from Chetvine around town, sneaking around, causing trouble, and doing nothing good. Every time, they got caught and beaten badly. Only Andrew, the clever little kid, always managed to slip away.


    Over time, in that small age group and tiny circle, Conrad became the leader because he was the oldest and the boldest. Andrew, though younger and smaller, naturally became the second-inmand. Every time they were about to do something stupid, the others would look at him, waiting for Andrew to decide whether they should go through with it or not. Eventually, even Conrad got into the habit of consulting Andrew first when problems arose. Those were carefree days.


    ---- Butter, somehow, as they grew up and joined the organization, Conrad began to feel jealous and started ndering Andrew out of spite. Andrew was always first at everything, and wherever he went, he quickly bonded with others and became the center of attention. Seeing this, thepetitive desire Conrad had buried deep inside as a child finally surfaced. It led to their eventual fallout to the point where they could no longer even be friends. Later, when Conrad was defeated, Andrew did not kill him. Conrad went overseas and received training from Reginald.


    In the end, both returned home. By then, Conrad was past 30. His life had moved beyond those spirited, ambitious teenage years. He no longer envied or tried to chase after Andrew. Instead, he epted reality, followed his heart, and chose to follow Andrew. However, Andrew''s hatred toward the Cunningham family was undeniable. For many years, Otto had dreamed of killing Andrew. So, the conflict between both sides was unavoidable. That conflict finally reached aplete resolution today. ---- Andrew crushed the Cunningham family with absolute dominance.


    Conrad felt gratitude toward Andrew and Reginald for their help, yet at the same time, the Cunningham family was still his own blood. He was torn between both sides. In the end, he chose to offer his own life in ce of Otto and Wyatt, asking Andrew to kill him instead. Andrew did not do so, even though there had been a moment when he truly wanted to. In the end, he let it go. Or rather, Andrew had grown. His true enemies and rivals now stood much farther away, stronger and more terrifying.


    The Cunningham family and Conrad had unknowingly been left far behind during Andrew''s tise It was like when you were a kid, fighting nonstop with some buzz -cut neighborhood brat, secretly swearing that one day you would crush him under your feet. However, once you grew up and saw the vast world beyond, realizing how endless and immense it truly was, you became a major power in your own right. ---- Then, when you looked back at that childhood rival, it all seemed trivial. At that point, would you still want revenge or to make things difficult for him? No.


    You would only feel boredom or even pity. You were no longer on the same level, nor in the same realm. So, Andrew chose to let everything from the past drift away with the wind. Wyatt and Otto had already paid their price. Without question, Wyatt''s 30 years of patience had beenpletely wasted. Andrew''s strike shattered his martial foundation. From that point on, his strength would only keep declining until death inevitably followed. It was as if Andrew had spared Wyatt''s life. Yet in truth, it was no different from killing him.
