Chapter 238

Lucas Lynch's sinister gaze locked onto Andrew Lucas.

The most prestigious young master of Greenhill becoming a eunuch...

Just imagining that scene made him tremble with excitement.

He looked up at the dark night sky. "Big brother, watch me make those who killed you pay!"

Seeing Andrew hesitate, Lucas pressed the knife harder against Daniel's neck. Blood immediately seeped out.

"Can't do it, Mr. Lucas? Then I'll send this brat to hell first!"

"Willing to throw away your life over this?" Andrew twirled the knife casually, as if discussing the weather.

Susan Thompson bit her lip hard, her nails digging into her palms.

Tears blurred her vision as she watched Andrew slowly raise the knife.

"Big brother, do you see? Mr. Lucas won't be a man much longer!" Lucas laughed maniacally. "Soon he'll join you!"

Suddenly, muffled thuds sounded. Lucas whirled around.

His men lay in pools of blood, crimson dots marking their foreheads.

"Andrew, you—"

A flash of steel.

Lucas's eyes widened as blood gushed from his throat. He collapsed stiffly.

"Daniel!"

Susan rushed forward and clutched her son tightly, terrified he'd disappear if she let go.

"Mommy, it doesn't hurt." Daniel hid his injured hand behind his back, offering a sweet smile.

Leo Miller and his team emerged from the woods, supporting Andrew. "Sir!"

"I'm fine."

Though pale, Andrew's eyes burned with intensity.

He'd arranged snipers in advance, waiting for Lucas to step away from the cliff's edge.

"Susan." Pushing Leo aside, he walked toward her.

His smile in the sunlight was dazzling enough to make hearts tremble.

"You cried for me. You still love me, don't you?"

"Andrew..."

Susan threw herself into his arms.

At life's brink, past grudges seemed trivial.

"Susan!" Ignoring his wound's pain, Andrew kissed her deeply.

"Uncle Leo can't peek!" Daniel covered his eyes. "Teacher Jing says it's rude!"

Blushing, Susan pushed Andrew away.

Leo stifled a laugh and quickly arranged their transport home.

The doctor confirmed the wounds weren't deep, but Andrew insisted on recuperating at Susan's place.

"I'm staying here," he declared shamelessly.

That night, Andrew held Susan gently.

Though his body ached for more, today's blood loss...

He gritted his teeth. Tomorrow, he'd pull out all the stops.

Susan signed with her senior Cecilia Grant's studio.

"Third female lead!" She rushed home excitedly with the contract to share the news.

As she entered the neighborhood, rose petals suddenly rained from the sky.

Then, fireworks exploded across the night:

"Susan, marry me."
