Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You

Chapter 10 On the other side of the hall , Lauren waved Eunice over .

Go and donate 3 million dollars in Dr.

Lloyds name , she instructed .

Eunice was stunned .

While the Rhodes family was indeed wealthy , she thought Lauren should not be so reckless with her expenses .

Miss , isnt that a bit excessive ? Lauren smiled haughtily .

Whats wrong with donating 3 million for the man Ive got my eye on ? Christina may not appreciate him , but Im not foolish enough to let such a treasure slip through my fingers .

She held a file containing information about Stevens Corporation .

In just a few short years , the company had transformed from a failing factory into Jayrodales publicly traded powerhouse .

With that , Christinas net worth had skyrocketed to an astounding 150 million dollars .

Interestingly , many aspects of Stevens Corporations rise seemed suspicious , as if someone had been pulling strings behind the scenes .

The companys sudden success coincided perfectly with Andrew and Christinas three year relationship .

Lauren was not foolish enough to believe this was a mere coincidence .

Meanwhile , Andrew had fourtd a seat for himself .

As soon as he sat down , Shawn approached him with a sneer.1 Andrew , youre really shameless , arent you ? Wherever Christie goes , you follow like a lost puppy .

By the way , everyone here is a big shot ready to make donations .

Whats a penniless gold digger like you doing here ? Shawn taunted .

1 Andrew glanced in Christinas direction before calmly replying , Have you always been so quick to look down on others ? Just because you have money to donate , does that mean I cant show my support for the orphans ? Shawn scoffed .

You think showing up here with your measly few bucks isnt embarrassing ? Know your place .

Irene chimed in mockingly , Shawn , dont waste your time on him .

Once Christie buys this property , well kick him out immediately ! Christina frowned as she looked at Andrew , shaking her head .

She had thought that even if Andrew lacked ambition , he at least had some self respect .
