Chapter 1334 Stay Sober

"Alright, I got it." Andrew looked up at Annika as she approached, his mind suddenly clear. He said softly, "Tell Mr. Clemens I'll be back soon." "Okay," Rodolfo replied before cautiously hanging up. He glanced hesitantly at Micah. "Andrew said he'll be back soon."

"Alright," Micah responded, waving Rodolfo off. Rodolfo nodded and left, carefully closing the door behind him.

Left alone in the dim room, Micah continued to smoke, feeling a mix of emotions. He saw through Sadie's plan to have Annika lure Andrew out to get him to spill the beans. Andrew, being sharp, should have seen it too. Yet, he still went. Maybe he couldn't resist Annika, or perhaps he saw this as a chance to leak a secret without guilt, hoping Sadie would return to the Clemens family. Whatever the case, Andrew was already poised for what Micah perceived as "betrayal." Micah had Rodolfo make the call to let Andrew know his actions were being monitored. That simple message, which Rodolfo hadn't fully grasped, made Andrew think twice. Knowing Micah was aware of his meetup with Annika added significant pressure. Micah was confident that Andrew wouldn't say anything compromising now.

When it came to strategic thinking, Sadie had met her match in Micah. Still, her efforts to uncover the truth about him, however misguided, indicated that she cared. For whatever reason, that thought brought him a measure of satisfaction.
