NovelBook---- Chapter 1385 Just as Andrew got into the car, his phone rang-it was Francesca. He chuckled and said, "Fran,
I'm on my way back now!" To his surprise, Francesca sounded frantic. "Andrew, no! Don't cback-whatever
you do, don't cback right now!" Andrew was confused. "Don't cback? Then where am | supposed to
go?" Francesca said urgently, "Aspen left. She's following her parents back to Bridgefields!" Andrew's face
darkened instantly.
"When did she leave?" Francesca shouted, "Just now! You can still catch her if you hurry to the airport! Mr.
Stevens was the one who dragged her out-he forced her to go!" Andrew let out a low, sharp breath. "Got it. I'm
going to the airport right now!" He hung up and immediately told the driver to turn ---- around and head straight
to Blumedale Airport. The driver groaned. "Sir, are you trying to make my life hell?
The airport's a nightmare this tof day-traffic's brutal!" Without a word, Andrew opened his phone and
transferred a solid 10,000 dollars into the driver's payment app. "How about now?" he asked, calm and cold. The
driver's eyes nearly popped out of his head. Then, he grinned. "Say no more, sir. If | don't get you to the airport
in 20 minutes, I'll let you use my head as a soccer ball!" "You've got ten minutes," Andrew replied flatly. "Done!
No problem at all!" Inwardly, the driver was still stunned-he had clearly just picked up a high roller. With that, he
slammed his foot on the gas, and they roared off like a rocket. ---- Meanwhile, Zephyr and Esther were already
leading Aspen through the terminal as the boarding call rang out through the PA system. "Con, let's head
back to Bridgefields," Zephyr said firmly.
"Aspen, it's tfor your life to start fresh." Esther gave her beloved daughter a gentle smile of encouragement,
trying to make it easier. Aspen hesitated, glancing back the way they came. Her steps slowed, her voice soft.

released you. What reason do you have to stay?" Aspen opened her mouth, searching for an excuse. "N- Nothing,
really.
I-| just have a few work-related matters to finish up." Esther chuckled, shaking her head. "Silly girl. With all the
brilliant people around Mr. Lloyd, do you really think he needs you to get things done? Con now, let's go
home. You've been through enough-it's tto rest." ---- Aspen stopped walking. She drew a deep breath and
clenched her fists, then turned to face them. "Dad, Mom .. I'l just say it outright.
| don't want to go back to Bridgefields." Neither Zephyr nor Esther looked surprised. Instead, their expressions
turned heavy, their eyes deep with emotion. Esther said softly, "Aspen, you don't want to leave Andrew, do
you?" Aspen's face flushed instantly. She stumbled over her words. "Mom, i-it's not that | don't want to go...
Maybe if | stay close to him, | could learn a few more things.
Then, maybe | can build something solid for myself here in Blumedale." However, Zephyr cut her off with a sharp
glare. "Lies! You love Andrew, don't you? All this talk about work and building something here is just an excuse!
What you really want is to be by his side!" Aspen shrank under his gaze, panicked. Eventually, she found her
courage and lifted her chin. "Yes, | do love ---- him. Dad, Mom! love Andrew. | don't want to leave him, and | can't
live without him. | want...
| want to be his woman. | want to
stay with him forever and never leave
his side." There was a long, painful
silence. At last, Esther oem
