Andrew spoke calmly. “Mrs. Rhodes, if | resolve the Rhodes family’s crisis, will you stop forcing Lauren into this?”
Tiana let out a mocking laugh. “You? Solving the Rhodes family’s crisis? Andrew, you're too young, too impulsive,
and you think way too highly of yourself. Remember, don’t ever bring up such ridiculous ideas in front of me
again.
“I was just starting to see you differently, but now, I'm reminded why | had no respect for you in the first place!
In short, you and Lauren are impossible! You can’t protect her and you can’t give her what she needs!”
Her tone was dripping with scorn and dismissal, but Andrew's expression remained composed. From the very
beginning, he had never taken the Rhodes family-or even the so-called powerful Driscoll and Golding families in
Blumedale-seriously.
Just then, the door swung open, and Lauren rushed in, her face pale. She said weakly, “Dr. Lloyd, let's go. | have
nothing left to say to this cruel woman. If she insists on being reckless and stubborn, then let her be. From now
on, I'll never care what happens to her again!”
She grabbed Andrew’s arm and pulled him toward the door
Andrew sighed. In truth, Tiana had been secretly protecting Lauren all this time. No matter what she said or did,
he could not bring himself to hate her or even be angry with her.

about Lauren's future instead of selfishly dragging her into danger. Do you really want her to end up destroyed
because of you?”
Andrew did not respond, nor did he look back. He simply walked out with Lauren. Once they returned to the
office, he gently pressed her shoulders down, making her sit.
He said, “You should rest a little longer. You're still too weak.”
Lauren's eyes were red and swollen, and she looked completely lost and broken.
“I always thought she didn’t love me, that she resentedas her daughter,” she murmured. “But | never
imagined she’d be this heartless-choosing Michael overwithout hesitation.”
Her voice cracked, and before she could finish, tears spilled down her face. She buried herself against Andrew's
shoulder and sobbed uncontrollably.
Andrew gently stroked her back, his voice soft with reassurance. “Lauren, have you ever considered that maybe
Mrs. Rhodes does love you? She just has her own way of showing it... a way that’s buried under a lot of pain.”
Lauren sniffled, shaking her head. “It doesn’t matter. | won't forgive her this time, Dr. Lloyd, | have no one now...
only you. Don’t leave me. Takeaway from here, please?”
Andrew let out a quiet sigh and tightened his arms around her. “Silly girl, don’t worry. | won't ever let go of your
hand-I'll always be here for you.”
There was deep love between Tiana and Lauren, but the walls between them were thick, built over years of
misunderstandings and painful choices.
