Andrew stated firmly, “While Ms. Stevens might be satisfied, I’m not quite done yet.”
Christina froze, wondering how this guy could still make demands. She thought he should be counting his blessings and wondered where he got the nerve to ask for more..
To her surprise, Mark played along perfectly. “Mr. Lloyd, please tell me what else concerns you, and I’ll take care of it.”
“First, we still need to process the loan,” Andrew said. “Second, these Jayrodale Bank employees who conspired with Nelson are no better than him. Mr. Thatcher, I don’t think you should allow such parasites to continue working in public service.”
“I’ll have someone process your loan immediately,” Mark agreed without hesitation. Then, he turned his icy gaze toward the employees. “Start drafting your resignations. I won’t repeat myself.”
The employees‘ faces turned ghostly white. They had gotten away with so much nonsense under Nelson’s protection that even complaints could not touch them. Yet, Andrew’s single statement had cost them their cushy jobs.
The female employee with the revealing blouse fell to her knees, screaming, “Mr. Thatcher, it was Mr. O’Connor who was lusting after Ms. Stevens and forced himself on her. We had nothing to do with it!”
Another chimed in desperately, “Mr. Thatcher, I can’t lose this job. I’ll confess everything about Mr. O’Connor’s crimes if you’ll spare me. Nelson harassed his female employees, took kickbacks, and cooked the books…
A staff member even said, “He even used company funds to buy personal items like lingerie, yoga pants, and other inappropriate things–all expensed to the company.”
As the terrified employees spilled all of Nelson’s dirty secrets, Mark’s face darkened with
anger.
He slapped Nelson hard across the face and growled, “You bastard! I can’t believe all the outrageous things you’ve done. Take him away for investigation.”
Nelson, who had been bitter about losing his position, now trembled in fear. Having his private misdeeds exposed meant this was not just about losing his job anymore–he could face jail time and lawsuits.
The other employees thought exposing Nelson would save them, but Mark ordered every single one of them to be taken away for investigation as well.
Shortly after, Mark had someone process the loan. The efficiency was almost surreal.
As they left Jayrodale Bank, Christina felt like everything that had happened was just a dream. She asked cautiously, “Andrew, Mr. Thatcher did all this because of you, didn’t he?”

Mark’s fawning attitude toward Andrew had been obvious to anyone watching. However, she could not understand what made Andrew so special to command such treatment.
“Christie, you’ve got it wrong!” Irene interjected unhappily. “Mr. Thatcher clearly helped us because of Harvey.”
Leroy commented, “Harvey hasn’t even shown up yet, so he must be busy pulling strings behind the scenes. Christie, don’t give credit where it isn’t due. Some people don’t deserve it!”
“Whatever the reason, we got the loan, and that’s what matters,” Andrew stated calmly. “Ms. Stevens, are you really that concerned about who helped us?”
Christina bit her lip. “I… Well, of course I care. If possible, I’d like to thank them in person.”
Andrew glanced at her and said flatly, “There’s no need for that.”
Christina was stunned. “So, Mr. Thatcher really did all this because of you?”
