Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You

Chapter 838

Since resistance was futile, there was no choice but to submit. Zephyr said, "Aspen, I swear I'll find a way to get you out of this hellhole!"

Leaving behind that one sentence, he led the Bridgefields Stevens family out of Jayrodale in a state of utter defeat.

Aspen watched their retreating figures, silent tears slipping down her face. As long as her sacrifice could ensure her family's survival, then it was worth it.

Andrew glanced around. "That's enough. Let's head back."

Without another word, he stepped out of the Stevens mansion doors.

Christina clenched her teeth. "Andrew, what exactly do you plan to do with Aspen?"

Andrew did not even turn his head. "I haven't decided yet, but it depends on how she behaves. If she's useless, I'll sell her off abroad and let fate decide the rest."

Aspen, trailing behind him, turned even paler. Right now, she was nothing more than Andrew's property. If he decided to ship her off, she would have no choice but to accept it.
