Chapter 787
At Moonlit Apothecary, Andrew had just returned from the West End headquarters. The moment he stepped
inside, he saw Lauren, now awake, sitting up in bed.
Nyla and Francesca were by her side, chatting with her. Nyl greeted him with a smile, “Dr. Lloyd, you're back! Ms.
Rhodes is awake!”
Andrew nodded and walked over, lightly touching Lauren’s forehead. After checking her temperature, he smiled.
” No fever. You still look a little pale, but you'll be fine.”
Lauren hesitated before asking, “Dr. Lloyd, what's happening with the company right now?”
Francesca huffed in frustration. “Lauren, look at yourself! You're still recovering, and you're already worrying
about Rhodes Corporation? Mrs. Rhodes and Michael can handle it—you don’t have to keep pushing yourself!”
Lauren shook her head. “It’s not about them. I'm worried about my father’s position in Blumedale. Right now, a
huge portion of our family’s operations over there rely on Rhodes Corporation. If the company collapses, Dad will
lose his foothold entirely!”
Cedric nodded. “She's right. Rhodes family was ambitious enough to expand beyond Jayrodale and establish
itself in Blumedale-something neither the Aickers nor the Wellers could pull off.
“But if it starts to crumble, then everything Jameson had built in Blumedale could fall apart before he even has a
chance to establish real power.”
Andrew gave Lauren's hand a reassuring pat. “Don’t worry. Rhodes Corporation isn’t going down. I'll step in and
stabilize everything. And while I'm at it, I'll make sure you becthe CEO.”

Lauren's expression dimmed. “I doubt it... Mom has probably chosen Michael's side completely by now. She
doesn’t wantthere.”
Andrew’s gaze softened-he could tell how deeply hurt she was. Lauren had completely lost faith in her mother,
but Tiana had her own burdens to bear. In the end, both mother and daughter were trapped in painful
circumstances.
“Whether Tiana supports you or not doesn’t matter,” Andrew said casually. “The deal was clear-whoever saves
Rhodes Corporation earns the right to be CEO.”
He smiled. “Silly girl, haven't you realized it yet? | already told Michael to cpick you up.”
Lauren's eyes widened. “Wait... Dr. Lloyd, what did you just say? You told Michael to cpickup?”
Andrew nodded. “That's right. And not just that-he’s going to kneel and bow while begging you to cback.”
Lauren stared at him, completely speechless.
Francesca and Cedric, sitting nearby, were just as stunned.
Francesca let out a sharp laugh. “Andrew, you expect Michael to beg for her forgiveness? You might as well say
you've already killed him!”
Cedric frowned. “That guy is just like his father, Kenny-arrogant, entitled, and full of himself. Asking him to get
down on his knees? Impossible. No, scratch that-it’s beyond impossible.”
Andrew leaned back in his chair, his expression unreadable. “Well... we'll find out soon enough.”
Then, as if he did not have a care in the world, he casually poured himself a cup of tea and sipped it. He even
started chatting with Nyla like nothing was happening.
