Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

Chapter 672 Chapter 672 Christina turned to Aspen , her expression uncertain and her voice trembling .

Aspen , did Mr.

Woods … really kill someone ? Aspen clutched her throat , her eyes filled with resentment .

Mr.

Woods actions are beyond my control .

All I can say is that Andrew brought this on himself ! Christinas face twisted with anger .

Andrew , all of this happened because you provoked Aspen in the first place ! I told you long ago if youd just apologized to her and returned the money , this whole mess wouldve been over .

But you just had to be stubborn , didnt you ? Who do you have to blame but yourself ? Andrew sneered .

Christina , I swear , youve gotten even dumber these days .

Can you even tell right from wrong anymore ? How the hell are you running Stevens Corporation when you cant see the truth right in front of you ? He let out a cold laugh , shaking his head .

Then again , I shouldnt be surprised .

I helped you and Stevens Corporation more times than I can count , but you never appreciated it .

Instead , you chose to trust idiots , like Shawn and Harvey .

How did that work out for you ? Christinas face flushed with embarrassment and rage .

She shot back through gritted teeth , What help ? What did you ever do for me ? Dont act like you were some savior .

I know exactly what youre trying to do you just want me to feel guilty , to be grateful to you ! She continued , Well , forget it .

I , Christina Stevens , dont need your help , and you are certainly not worthy of giving it ! Her chest heaved with each angry breath , her emotions spiraling out of control .

Andrew chuckled and shook his head .

Christina , look at yourself .

Youre no longer the poised , elegant CEO you pretend to be .

Right now , you look like a bitter woman too scared to face reality .

He added , Fine .

Since youre so determined to stay blind , let me break it down for you .

The South City Orphanage project ? I handed that to you on a silver platter .

That time you went to Jayrodale Bank for a loan and nearly got assaulted ? I was the one who saved you .noveldrama

Mark stepping in to defuse the situation ? Yeah , that was because of my connections not Harveys pathetic attempts to impress you .

You chose to believe Harveys lies and turned your back on me .

In the end , you paid the price for that decision .

He took a step forward , his voice sharp and cold .

And lets not forget your whole family fawning over Shawn like he was some golden boy while treating me like garbage .

Your mom and your brother both looked down on me like I was nothing .

Well , guess what ? The Stevens family is nothing to me .

Shawn ? Hes been lying low because hes scared that Ill go after him .

Andrew did not stop there , saying , Remember when your family poured all that money into that doomed East Side project ? I warned you about it beforehand , didnt I ? But you all thought you were smarter than me .

Meanwhile , Lauren , Fran , and I made a killing because I knew exactly where the city planned to develop next .

While you were busy kissing up to the Weller family , I was already ahead of the game .

His eyes glinted with satisfaction as Christina stood there , her mouth slightly open , speechless .

One more thing , Andrew added with a smirk .

If it werent for Mr.

Stevens Senior helping me when I first arrived in Jayrodale , I wouldnt have lifted a single finger for the Stevens family .

So let me make it crystal clear for you , Christina .

The success Stevens Corporation is enjoying today ? Its because of me , Youve been living comfortably off the empire I built , and not only did you never thank me , but you also had the audacity to call me unambitious , someone who couldnt keep up with your grand vision .

Chapter 672 Andrews eyes were cold and sharp .

Thats why I say youre an idiot , Christina .

You just dont see it .

Ive said my piece .

You and the Stevens family ? Good luck youre gonna need it .

With that , Andrew turned around and walked away without looking back .

Christina stood frozen , her mind swirling as memories from the past flooded in .

One by one , the moments Andrew mentioned resurfaced , fitting together like puzzle pieces .

Her face grew pale , and a cold wave of dread washed over her .

No … no , it cant be .

Hes lying , she muttered , shaking her head .

Hes just a doctor … a nobody .

How could he have pulled all of that off ? This has to be a lie … it has to be ! Tears streamed down her face as she bolted toward the front door .

She ran outside , her heart racing , only to see the taillights of Andrews car disappearing into the night .

Her voice cracked as she screamed after him , Andrew , stop ! You need to tell me the truth ! You cant just leave it like this ! But the only response was the roar of the engine as his car vanished into the distance .
