Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

Chapter 544 Im an outsider , so its fine if Mrs.

Rhodes doesnt reward me, Ms.

Rhodes hasnt even been promoted in the slightest .

It seems the corruption within Rhodes Corporation is quite thorough , Andrew said .

Tiana was truly enraged this time .

Andrew , watch your tongue ! Do you even realize that not even Marvin , the man behind you , would dare speak to me like this ? Andrew replied indifferently , If Mrs.

Rhodes can do as she pleases , why cant others speak their minds ? If you want to shut me up , then just go ahead and distribute the rewards fairly .

Give Ms.

Rhodes what she deserves without delay .

Tiana , clearly exasperated , gritted her teeth .

Lauren is my biological daughter .

What shes due , Ill never withhold from her .

Fine .

Ill satisfy your little scheme .

Lauren will be the first priority candidate for the CEO position .

Is that enough for you now ? Andrew smiled .

Mrs.

Rhodes is fair and just , as expected from the matriarch of Rhodes Corporation .

Im impressed .

Tiana snorted coldly .

This little troublemaker actually claimed to admire her ? What nonsense .

It was nothing but an act of smooth talking ! Michaels face turned pale .

Aunt Tiana , what about me ? You cant be biased ! At the very least , it should be fair competition between Lauren and me .

How can you give her priority ? Tiana snapped in frustration .

Enough ! Dont you think youve embarrassed yourself enough already ? Not demoting you to a department manager is already my greatest mercy .

Michael dared not push further .

His face was ashen , his fists clenched tightly , and he looked as though he was about to collapse .

The executives who had sided with Michael were also devastated , sighing heavily .

If they had known this would happen , they wouldnt have thrown their support behind Michael so quickly .

Now it was clear .

With Lauren having Andrew as her formidable ally , even if Michael had the numbers and controlled more than half of the corporations departments it wasnt enough to win .

Andrew Lloyd … What a troublesome figure to deal with ! At this moment , Tiana let out a cold laugh .

Marvin taught you how to be sharp tongued and relentless when youre on top .

But it seems he never taught you the importance of knowing your limits , understanding reason , and knowing when to advance or retreat .

Thats how you survive longer .

Her face was full of contempt as she looked at Andrew , her expression mocking .

It was the look of someone in a position of power , gazing down at someone she considered a mere nuisance .

She stepped closer to Andrew , sneering .

Do you think that as a nobody , stirring up trouble and giving orders within Rhodes Corporation , youve achieved something great ? Andrew shrugged .

Honestly ? Its not bad at all .

Tianas face turned icy as her tone grew colder .

Your smooth talk proves nothing .

All it shows is that youre a petty man with a little wit , trying to act clever .

Once a small man gains power , he seizes on others mistakes relentlessly .

Meanwhile , his own abilities are hardly worth mentioning .

People like that ? Thats you .

1/2 Chapter 544 +25 BONUS Andrew replied calmly , If you dont like me , thats fine , because , honestly , I dont care for your lofty attitude either .

Everyone , including Michael and his supporters , drew in sharp breaths .

Andrew was truly bold or insane to confront Tiana so openly .

Even Jerry , who had remained silent all this time , subtly signaled to Andrew , trying to warn him not to clash head- on with Tiana .

Clearly , Jerry thought that while Andrew might be exceptional , he wasnt yet on Tianas level .

Lauren , on the other hand , was growing increasingly anxious .

She worried that Tiana might hold a grudge against Andrew and retaliate recklessly .

If that happened , it would be real trouble !
