Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You

Chapter 739 Tiana let out a cold scoff. "What do you know? Andrew's strength is far beyond what you and the rest of your generation can even comprehend! If I hadn't stepped in today, he wouldn't have beaten you half to death."

Howard clenched his teeth. "Fine, maybe I can't beat him-but our Lambert family isn't afraid of him."

Tiana sneered. "Still clinging to your family name for protection? Pathetic. Let me ask you this-when Andrew made his move, who was backing him? Did he have anyone supporting him? He walked in alone, and yet he crushed you—and that useless fool Michael-without breaking a sweat."

She shook her head with disappointment. "Watching you weaklings struggle is honestly embarrassing for the Lambert family. But Marvin managed to cultivate someone this powerful. That's something I can't afford to ignore."
