Chapter 504 If I wasnt here, were you nning to spend your nights out with Andrew instead ofing home ? Tianas voice grew sharper with every word, each sentence harsher than thest.


    Lauren looked at her calmly and asked, What are you trying to say? I want you to show some restraint, Tiana snapped.


    Remember, youre the heiress of Rhodes Corporation, not some wild party girl with no self respect. Lauren let out a coldugh and said dismissively, Everything I do appears wrong in your eyes


    You even want to control who I date, but what I cant tolerate is what makes you think being with Andrew means I have no self respect? Tiana sneered, her voice dripping with sarcasm.


    Do you think Im blind? Youre out there shopping, holding hands, whispering sweet nothings to each other in public I know about your every move


    Laurens voice dropped,ced with usation


    So, you let me go out, but then you spy on me? Im not spying Im preventing you from doing something youll regret, Tiana retorted.


    Lauren scoffed.


    Lets be honest youre just worried III sleep with Andrew, arent you? Well, rest assured, Im nning to jump into his bed and give myself to himpletely at the first opportunity.


    This time, Tiana did not get angry but responded with a smirk.


    If you do that, no one can stop Joe.


    Once he learns how you treated him and his family, I imagine their fury will destroy Andrew before he even knows what hit him.


    Laurens face paled slightly as she gritted her teeth.


    You promised not to use the Driscoll family to threaten Andrew again.


    Tianas expression was stone cold


    And you promised not to cross the line.


    Lauren sighed wearily and said, You must have heard about Andrews outstanding performance.


    How can such a capable man with unlimited potential not satisfy you as a son inw? Tiana gave a nonchnt shrug.


    His actions have surprised me, Ill admit.


    But theyre far from impressive.


    1/2 Chapter 504  Lauren scoffed.


    Since when did you be incapable of acknowledging someones excellence, Mom? Tiana stood and replied with a detached tone


    If someone is truly remarkable, they dont need anyones acknowledgment.


    But if its all just a facade, no amount of praise will make it real


    Lauren took a deep breath, meeting her mothers gaze head on.


    Fine.


    Then let me ask you this hasnt Andrews performance at thepany over the past two days been worthy of recognition ? Hes quite wealthy, managing to invest five billion to be a shareholder, Tiana said calmly


    And hes quite capable, making Madde Martial Academy bow down.


    But arent these just illusions you two young people created to fool me ? Lauren frowned, How are they illusions? Andrews achievements are there for everyone to see how could they be fake? Tiana let out a disdainfulugh


    Let me ask you something.


    How old is Andrew ? Lauren replied, Hes 26! Then tell me, where is he from? Tianas voice rose. Lauren hesitated before saying, He should be from Jayrodale.


    Tianas anger red.


    Exactly! A 26 year old from a small, backwater town like Jayrodale where does someone like that get five billion dors? Where does he find the power to make Madde Martial Academy bow down? Tell me, Lauren ! Exin it ! 2/2
