Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You

Chapter 1726

Andrew replied dismissively, "Oh really? And what if I don't tone it down?"

Liliana sneered. "If you don't behave yourself, you'll be the only one who suffers in the end!"

Miles frowned. "Liliana, don't exaggerate. You make it sound like Mom's a monster."

Then, he turned to Andrew and said, "Mr. Lloyd, I'm just giving you a heads-up. That's all. Nothing more."

Without another word, Andrew followed Otis deeper into the estate to meet Victoria.

Liliana watched his back disappear and stomped her foot. "Miles, why would you warn that bastard? Let him mouth off in front of Mom and get wrecked. He deserves it!"

Miles replied, "How many times do I have to tell you not to provoke him? Did you already forget what happened last time?"

Liliana sneered. "Of course I didn't forget! But to say the Peck family can't handle someone like Andrew? That's laughable. Last time, Mom didn't get involved. If she had, Andrew would probably be dead already."

Miles shook his head. Clearly, Liliana still had not learned her lesson.

Andrew had grown into a serious force who could stand toe-to-toe with the Five Apex Families. Even with Victoria around, the Peck family could not actually do much to him.

If they did, the people backing Andrew would probably come knocking, and they would not be polite.

Still, a part of Miles was frustrated. The Peck family was a well-established household with real influence. Yet, even their patriarch had been forced into retreat after crossing paths with Andrew.
