Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 325

Chapter 325 One of Orions followers shouted , Hey , Mr.

Kelce is graciously lowering himself to challenge you in an appraisal contest , and you dont even have the guts to agree ? Another chimed in , Calling us dogs ? Kid , youre biting off more than you can chew .

Words like that will get you into real trouble if you dont crawl out of this appraisal event on all fours today , Ill take your last name ! A third laughed mockingly , Even Jayrodales antique experts wouldnt dare utter a word against Mr.

Kelce , yet here you are , some nobody playing the hero .

Didnt your mom ever teach you that sticking your neck out doesnt make you brave ? It makes you reckless , and reckless fools tend to end up regretting it ! No one could believe that Andrew , who was not even part of the antique world , would dare provoke someone as influential as Orion .

Christina snapped angrily , Andrew , apologize to Mr.

Kelce and Aspen right now ! Andrew replied nonchalantly , Why should I apologize ? Gritting her teeth , Christina hissed , Cant you see how serious this is ? Were just here to watch .

Why are you dragging yourself into their business ? Andrew shrugged and replied , I have no interest in antiques or their petty disputes .

I just cant stand listening to two barking clowns making fools of themselves .

And when those clowns decide to take a bite out of me , thats where I draw the line .

Christina was furious at Andrews carefree attitude .

Fine ! If youre so determined , I wont try to stop Aspen anymore .

But if she teaches you a lesson , dont expect me to step in .

Andrew smirked .

Aspen is just like you an arrogant fool .

Teach me a lesson ? You think too highly of her … or maybe too highly of yourself .

Christinas face turned bright red , and she decided she was done trying to protect him .

If Andrew wanted to walk into trouble , so be it .

He was about to learn a hard lesson .

Meanwhile , Elsie pulled Andrew aside and whispered urgently , Mr.

Lloyd , dont agree to Orions challenge .

Appraisal duels like this involve enormous stakes usually money .

Hes using his status to bully you , and its disgraceful to even suggest such a contest against someone outside the industry .
