Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren)

Chapter 482 Cooperate, and things will go smoothly.

If not, there will be consequences, Donald warned.

One of the fugitives, with a dark mole at the corner of his mouth, sneered.

Are you trying to scare us, Mr.

Warren? The police department has no right to interrogate us.

The bald fugitive with the scorpion tattoo laughed coldly.

If it werent for Dylan and Natasha searching everywhere, you useless cops wouldnt have caught us!

Donald shouted, Watch your mouth, you little punk! Want me to crack that skull of yours? The bald man smirked

Empty threats wont work on us, Mr.

Warren.

If youve got the guts, do it dont just sit there talking Donald turned to Andrew furiously and asked, Mr.

Lloyd, do you mind if I teach them a lesson ? I could use a little warm up

Are you sure thats wise in the interrogation rooin? Andrew raised an eyebrow.

Donald grinned menacingly.

Mr.

Lloyd, youre the only person Id ever tiptoe around.

But anyone else who sets foot in my territory learns real quick why they call me the Butcher.

After wrapping a belt around his hand, Donald walked behind the four suspects.

The law will judge your crimes, but first, Ill get some justice for your victims, he declared before unleashing a series of brutal punches.

His strikes were precisely targeted, causing pain and fear without inflicting permanent damage. Andrew watched briefly before commenting, You must have trained with the military, Mr. Warren.

How did you know that, Mr.

Lloyd ? Have you been investigating me? Donald asked, removing his bloodied belt. Andrew scoffed

Why would I waste my time investigating you? Donald smirked sheepishly.

Youre sharp, though.

I did have some specialized military training.

But how could you tell? Andrews tone was casual

Because Ive been in the military myself.

Donalds heart skipped a beat, though he tried to laugh it off

From what I know, anyone whos served in the military is tough as nails

So, Mr.

Lloyd, which unit were you with? He did not expect an answer.

After all, Andrew seemed more like a member of the privileged elite than someone who had endured grueling military life.

However, Andrews next words left him stunned

I spent time with the Eangs, did a stint with the Predators, and had some fun with units like Thunderbolt and the Serpents

Chapter 482 Donalds jaw nearly hit the floor.

He knew enough about these units to understand their elite reputations.

Each name Andrew casually dropped represented near mythical status, places revered by those in the know

What Donald was unaware of was that Andrew had not just trained with these units he was actually there to train them

Moreover, he was paid millions for a single day of training

Meanwhile, the fugitives, now cowed and battered, were finally ready to talk.

Andrew leaned forward.

The Weller family hired you to kidnap Lucy, didnt they? The bald man nodded quickly.

Yes, it was the Weller family.

Was it Harvey who contacted you directly? Andrew asked.

The bald man shook his head.

No, it was their butler.

Andrew smirked and turned to Lauren and Marcus.

You heard that, right? Harveys getting smarter.

Laurens eyes narrowed, her voice cold

Hes learning, alright.

If things go south, hell throw the butler under the bus to take the fall.

Andrew stood and dusted off his hands.

Alright, thats all I needed to know.

Now its time to set the trap and give the Weller family a real taste of justice.

He paused, his eyes gleaming with a dangerous light.

Its been too long since we reminded Harvey whos in charge.

Lets make sure he wont forget it this time.
