Chapter 246 Just then , more distinguished guests arrived at the Weller family estate .
Harvey walked with two of the familys elite guards .
away Andrew , Harvey may be a jerk , but the Weller family elders arent pushovers , Francesca warned .
You dont need to be so confrontational with them ! Cant you see what Harveys doing ? Andrew scoffed .
Hes just flexing his new authority by parading around with the familys guards .
If we back down now , hell think he can get away with anything ! Dr.
Lloyd , Fran , lets go inside , Lauren suggested .
Whatever happens , Harvey wont cause trouble at his fathers funeral with so many people watching .
The Weller residences main hall was packed with Jayrodales elite .
Andrew casually glanced around and spotted his old rivals : Atlas , Finley , and Michael , who had also noticed him .
While nobody started anything , the tension was evident in their pressions .
Mr.
Lloyd , hello ! an enthusiastic voice called out .

Andrew turned to see Silas , the CEO of Radiant Group , approaching with a friendly smile , followed by Elsie in an elegant black dress that accentuated her figure .
Hello , Mr.
Vaughn , Ms.
Santana , Andrew replied politely .
Mr.
Lloyd , you did us a huge favor at the last auction , Silas said .
Ive been looking for an opportunity to thank you properly .
A favor ? I didnt do anything special , Andrew responded , puzzled .
Elsie stepped forward , a slight blush on her face .
If it werent for you , our auction house would have suffered heavy losses .
Please accept our gratitude .
If your gratitude involves a private date , I must respectfully decline , Ms.
Santana , Andrew replied , holding his hand .
Elsie bit her lip , looking somewhat disappointed .
Youve already rejected my subtle advances before .
This time , Im actually inviting you to our auction houses upcoming appraisal convention .
Wed be honored if youd attend .
This time , Andrew did not refuse .
He smiled and said , Sure , Ill be there .
After Elsie and Silas left , Lauren nudged Andrew playfully .
Dr.
Lloyd , Radiant Groups appraisal convention is a major event in Jayrodale .
Even the famous Ms.
Santana personally invited you it seems like she has really fallen for you .
So what if she has ? Francesca pouted .
Andrew is a gentleman , not some playboy .
Elsie will Chapter 246 get the message after being rejected a few more times ! Fran , youre acting like youre Dr.
Lloyds wife , Lauren teased .
With the way you guard him , anyone would think youre Mrs.
Lloyd .
Francescas face turned red as she avoided Andrews gaze .
Im doing nothing wrong ! Andrew is our hospitals deputy chief .
I have a duty to protect his reputation! By then , all the mourners had arrived .
Harvey took the stage , flanked by two Weller family guards .
Thank you all for coming to pay respects to my father , he began .
