Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 1091

Irene shouted, "You actually brought her to a hotel room? Ugh, have you no shame?"

Andrew replied coolly, "It's none of your damn business."

Then, he casually walked over to the front desk and booked a deluxe suite.

Leroy called out, "Hold up, Andrew!"

Andrew stopped and turned, shooting him a glance.

Leroy looked at the unconscious Aspen and asked, "So, are you two officially sleeping together now?"

Andrew snapped impatiently, "If you've got something to say, say it. If not, get lost."

Leroy snorted. "Relax, man. I'm just saying that you're impressive. You're actually sleeping with Aspen? Honestly, if it weren't for us being related, I'd be tempted too. She's seriously top-tier—any man would want a shot."

Andrew sneered. "Is that so? Well, you're even more of a shameless animal than I thought."

Leroy's temper flared. "And who are you to insult me, Andrew? Don't forget, the woman you're sleeping with is still a Stevens. She's still one of ours. So, you better be ready to pay the price for that.

"That G-Wagon of yours—still driving it? If not, hand it over. Consider it payment for sleeping with Aspen."

Andrew was honestly impressed. Leroy had been eyeing his ride since their time back in Jayrodale. That idiot had the thickest skin he had ever seen—persistent to a ridiculous degree.

Just then, Christina spoke coldly. "Andrew, I never thought you'd end up accepting a woman you once hated, someone who hurt you. Shows what kind of man you really are—you'd throw away your principles just to get laid."

Andrew said with complete indifference, "You can say and think whatever you want. That's your business. But yes, you're right. I've accepted Aspen because she's miles better than you in every way."

Christina's frosty expression darkened. "Do you really think Aspen is better than me? Andrew, you think I'd believe you're not just saying that to piss me off? Tell me—what exactly makes Aspen better than me?"
