Chapter 536 Troy, who had been on the verge of losing consciousness, seemed to regain his spirit upon hearing Andrews words.
Trembling
all over, he looked up with tears of gratitude.
Thank you, Mr.
Lloyd ! I cant thank you enough! Michaels face darkened, and he shot Andrew a questioning re.
Whats going on with Troy? And whats with the prescription you gave him? Andrew smirked.
Oh, you didnt know ? Mr.
MacAfee here caught himself a pretty nasty case of an STD-so bad hisher regions have started to rot
He came groveling to me, begging for treatment.
Michaels face went pale.
What? That idiot actually managed to catch... that? As someone who was no stranger to questionable flings himself, Michael suddenly felt an ufortable chill.
This news hit a little too close to home.
Lauren sneered
He got what he deserved
Messing around with Rubynded him in this mess
And when it got too bad, he had no choice but to beg Mr.
Lloyd for help.
Under Mr.
Lloyds pressure, he confessed everything about his dealings with Ruby, including how he leaked the forms.
Otherwise, do you think he wouldve admitted to stealing thepanys secrets so easily ? Michael shuddered at the thought.
A wave of relief washed over him as he realized how close he hade to making a fatal mistake.
He had considered making a move on Ruby himself, tempted by her allure.
Now, he silently thanked his lucky stars he had not followed through.
That womans a walking biohazard, he thought grimly.
Then, his eyes flicked to Troy, his expression a mixture of disdain and pity.
What a tragic idiot.
Just as he was processing this disaster, amotion erupted outside the office.
The gathered employees quickly parted, lining up along the corridor with looks of respect and fear etched across their faces.
Eunice came rushing into the room, her face pale as a sheet.
Her voice trembled as she announced, Ms.
Rhodes ... Mrs.
Rhodes is here! She just arrived at the building! Laurens expression tightened as she immediately nced toward the door.
Michaels face also changed, and he quicklyposed himself, rushing toward the hallway to greet her.
Aunt Tiana, you shouldve let us know you wereing.
I wouldve personallye to wee you! Michael said with an ingratiating smile.
Through the crowd stepped a stunning woman with a frosty demeanor
She bore a striking resemnce to Lauren, though her aura was far more imposing.
Following her were a dozen bodyguards, including Jerry, who had been knocked unconscious by Andrew not long ago.
Mrs.
Rhodes, wee! the gathered employees greeted in unison, bowing slightly.
However, Andrew remained seated, his gaze fixed on the woman with quiet curiosity.
He could Immediately tell from her cold andmanding presence that Tiana was no ordinary person.
One of the senior executives, who had previously been knocked out by Andrew during a confrontation, 7/2 Chapter 536 red at him and barked, Andrew, how dare you remain seated? Show your respect to Mrs.
Rhodes and greet her properly! Andrew replied with an even tone, Im a board member of Rhodes Corporation, not a servant of the Rhodes family.
Why should I bow? The executives face flushed with anger.
Michael snapped, Andrew, watch your tone! Rhodes Corporation is part of the Rhodes familys holdings, and Mrs.
Rhodes is no ordinary person.
She oversees all Rhodes Corporation operations in Jayrodale, holding ultimate authority.
More importantly, she is the rightful wife of the Rhodes family head our matriarch! You are obligated to show respect! Andrew shrugged nonchntly.
Apologies, but I dont bow to anyone.
My backs never been particrly flexible for that kind of thing
Besides, he added with a faint smile, I dont bow to anyone whether its the matriarch of the Rhodes
family, a general from Holtrien, or the head of some grand aristocratic family.
Its just not my style
