Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) Chapter 2690

Andrew smiled. “Now that’s the honest truth. Looks like Jovan is someone who knows how to hold back and isn’t just some clueless hothead who doesn’t understand anything.” Eric grinned with malicious amusement. “Let me dig a little deeper into his innermost secrets. Jovan, tell me the thing you’ve buried deepest in your heart.” This time, Jovan fell silent, or rather, he paused for a long while. Andrew looked puzzled. “Eric, don’t tell me your Phantom: Mirage is just this weak?” Eric cursed furiously. “Screw off!

With my current level, this technique can even trap high-level martial saints.” He focused back on Jovan and ordered, “Jovan, tell me your biggest secret right now.” This time, Jovan spoke. “I-I like Ms. Owens. From the day she and her father came to the Advanced Medical Institute, I fell for her. I’ve never seen such a beautiful woman in my life. She was like an angel, handing out cool stuff from the city to each and every apprentice. When she gave me something, my heart felt like it was going to burst out of my chest.” Andrew and Eric exchanged glances and fell into silence —- together.noveldrama

Eric asked, “You think he’s legal yet?” Andrew nodded. “Pretty much. He’s got to be at least 15.” Eric curled his lip. “No wonder. That age when you first fall in love. And wouldn’t you know it, he runs into Mikayla, that master manipulator. A passionate kid like Jovan doesn’t stand a chance against her tricks. If Mikayla told him to jump off a cliff, he’d probably do it without blinking.” At that moment, Jovan, still trapped in the illusion, suddenly sounded dejected. “But I know Ms. Owens would never like me. I even know that back then, she didn’t even notice me at all. I’m just a joke.

An insignificant, low-level apprentice at the Advanced Medical Institute who can’t measure up to any of my senior apprentices. How could someone like her, a high-class lady from Chetvine, ever look at me?” Andrew patted his shoulder. “Get some sleep, Jovan.” He stood up, ready to head back and rest. However, Eric still wanted to mess with Jovan and continued. * Keep talking. Let me ask you: do you want to sleep with Mikayla? Don’t you know that Mikayla’s been hooking up with Lennox right now?” Jovan’s face suddenly twisted with fury as he cursed.

“Lennox is —- a dead piece of trash, a worthless scumbag who deserves to rot! He killed several of our senior female apprentices at the Institute, He tricked them into sleeping with him, then killed them to silence them and cover it all up.” He continued, “I just can’t understand why someone like Ms. Owens, who’s practically an angel, would fall for Lennox. The two of them meet up all the time at the edge of Bluewater Cliff. I’ve caught them several times already. “Every time I see Lennox with his arm around Ms. Owens’ waist, my heart really hurts. However, the strange thing is that Ms.

Owens seems to need Lennox to agree to do something for her. “At their meeting spot, they’ve discussed a lot of shady stuff. Every time, I feel like Ms. Owens is someone I can’t figure out. She seems so sweet and innocent, but the things she asks for are so confusing.” Andrew, who had started to walk away, suddenly turned back around and asked, “What kind of demands is Mikayla making of Lennox?” Jovan shook his head. “! don’t know the specifics, but every time they meet, Ms. Owens manipulates Lennox, and he follows through every single time. He was completely obedient.

I’ve eavesdropped several times. What she wants seems to have something to do with Mr. Easton.” —- Andrew’s expression grew serious as he murmured, “Corbin? Corbin… I think I know what’s going on now.” Eric ended his control over Jovan and knocked Jovan out with a quick strike. Then, he asked Andrew, “Did you figure something out?”
