At Blumedale Airport, Shiloh suddenly stopped in her track. “Joe, I think I won’t go to Goldridge with you after
Joe, pulling their luggage, looked surprised. “Didn’t we already agree on this? We’re going to Goldridge for vacation, and I’m taking you there to have fun for a few days. It’s been stowing recently, right?
“The snow there is even heavier and more fun. Come on, the plane’s about to take off. You’ve never flown before, so let me take you. I promise it’ll be exciting!
Shiloh lowered her head, staring at the tips of her shoes with pillt. “Joe, I’ve decided. I’m not going”
The smile on Joe’s face finally froze. “Why? Master, can you tell me why you’ve changed your mind and don’t want to go anymore? Is it because of… Andrew?”
Shiloh nodded with a dejected mood. “Yes, that’s exactly it! Andrew is facing serious trouble right now. Even though they’re all hiding it from me, I’m not stupid! I know everything,
“He and your family have erupted into an irreconcilable conflict. I want to go and help him, and besides, your should check on your family too.”
Joe forced a smile. “Don’t worry. They’ll be fine. This is their fight, not ours. Stop worrying and come on, the plane is about to leave.”
He reached out to grab her hand.
However, Shiloh quickly pulled away, clearly resisting. “No, I’m not going to Goldridge with you. I’m heading to the Driscoll residence and finding out what Andrew and the others are really facing. They’ve always been so good to me. I can’t just pretend nothing is happening. I’m sorry, but if you want to go, you’ll have to go alone.” With that, Shiloh turned and ran out of the terminal. Joe stood frozen in place, watching her get farther and farther away, as his heart sank into the depths. In the end, despite everything he had done, he still could not replace Andrew’s position in her heart.
At this moment, Joe was reluctant to admit that intense jealousy and a trace of hatred had surged in his heart.
He hated that he was not the first person to meet Shiloh, but Andrew was. Joe had never so desperately wanted to have someone in his entire life.
Shiloh was the first and would be his last.
The closer he got to Shiloh, the more he was drawn to that ethereal, pure beauty she possessed.
‘No!‘ Joe suddenly clenched his fists tightly. He would not give up on Shiloh; he would fight for her to the very end.
Andrew swung down, then twisted into an upward strike aimed at Maurice’s jaw.
Maurice grunted coldly and smashed his arms down, slamming at Andrew’s chest.
Andrew did not dodge, taking both blows head–on.
Maurice stumbled back, his head snapping up as he staggered several steps.
Andrew’s face was ice–cold, showing no signs of slowing as he lunged forward again, fists flying toward Maurice’s face.

Maurice grew angrier the longer they fought, He roared, “Get out of my way!”

Power burst from him in a violent wave, shredding his purple combat uniform into ribbons, exposing his rippling
muscles.
With an explosive shout, Maurice unleashed a dazzling flurry of punches to counterattack Andrew.
Andrew gave no ground, meeting every punch completely without even breaking a sweat. Occasionally, he would launch a series of kicks that forced Maurice to retreat with Increasingly chaotic footwork
‘This brat…. his inner strength is overwhelming, and he’s not even showing signs of tiring!‘ Maurice thought, his shock mounting.
He had expected to crush Andrew in close combat, but instead, he found himself being pushed back again and again.
“Bring me my blade!” Maurice threw a powerful palm strike and jumped backward
Someone from the Driscoll family immediately threw him the sword he had used in his younger days when roaming the martial world.
It was a massive sword known as the Dirgeblade. The heavy weapon’s spine was lined with nine iron rings that rattled loudly as he swung it, the sound reverberating like thunder.
