hapter 655 With a single strike of his bare hand , Andrew shattered the marble table into pieces .

Both underground leaders , Natasha and Dylan , froze as their eyes widened in shock .

The thought of that level of force hitting a human body was terrifying organs would be crushed on impact .

Even Natasha , who was slightly stronger than Dylan , felt a nervous tension building in her chest .

Andrews display of power far surpassed her capabilities , and the fear coursing through her was palpable .

Dylan , on the other hand , could barely maintain his composure .

He knew that if Andrew truly wanted to discipline him , he would be shaking in his boots .

Whats wrong with you two ? Are you part monkey , needing to fight whenever you meet ? Or maybe youre like dogs biting each other just to feel better ? Andrew sneered coldly , his gaze sharp .

Dylan remained silent , too scared to speak .

Natasha , however , quickly adopted a submissive tone .

Darling , dont be mad .

I know I was wrong .

Andrew gave her a frosty look .

Dont play innocent with me , Natasha .noveldrama

I know youve always been drawn to power .

He warned her , You can take whats rightfully yours .

But if you try to take what isnt , youll have to give it back- and thats not even the worst case scenario .

Youre a woman whos too obsessed with control , and thats a dangerous path .

One day , if you cross a line you shouldnt , you wont just lose West End .

You might lose your life too .

Natasha swallowed hard , regretting her actions .

She hated upsetting Andrew , whose easygoing nature usually made him approachable despite his position of authority .

Nonetheless , his silent intensity became suffocating when he was angry , making it hard for either Natasha or Dylan to breathe .

I dont want to see any more infighting , Andrew said , his voice ice cold as his gaze swept between the two .

If something like this happens again , whoevers responsible will end up like that marble table .

Dylan quickly bowed his head .

Mr.

Lloyd , Im sorry ! It wont happen again .

I promise .

Andrew nodded .

Good .

You have the formula , so get everything ready .

And make sure you follow my instructions exactly .

Understood ! Dylan responded respectfully before hurrying away .

After Dylan left , Andrew turned and saw Natasha standing quietly .

He was startled to see her red rimmed eyes and trembling lips .

Tears welled up , and she looked like she was about to cry .

Are you acting ? Or are those real tears ? Andrew asked , baffled .

Natasha let a tear roll down her cheek and gave a bitter laugh .

Oh , Im acting , alright .

Just trying to look pitiful in front of you .

Happy now ? Andrew sighed .

Alright , I get it .

Youre not acting .

But why are you crying ? I didnt even scold you that harshly .

Natasha wiped her tears, clenching her teeth .

Andrew , do you know how long its been since I last cried ? I became a widow at 16.

For the past 20 years , I havent shed a single tear .

Over those years , I was ambushed countless times , barely escaping death .

I faced betrayals , poisonings , and even assault attempts .

But I always killed those bastards and kept going without breaking down .

Andrew gave her a wry smile .

And now youre saying that because of me , you finally cried? 1/2 Chapter 655 Yes , damn it ! Because of you ! Natasha growled , biting her lip .

I dont even understand it myself .

When you got so angry , felt … scared .

I always thought you were different from other men that you wouldnt be so harsh with me .

But I guess I was wrong .

ing to b Andrew frowned .

Im not trying to be cruel .

I just expect you to follow my rules if youre under my leadership .

Do you really think Id stand by and watch you and Dylan tear each other apart ?
