Behind Andrew, Christina’s grandfather, Douglas, wheeled himself into the room. Douglas stated calmly, “I asked Andrew to come here to save the Stevens family.”
“Grandpa, the Weller family is oppressing us, and Andrew can’t possibly help,” Christina said anxiously. “And you shouldn’t be here in your condition. Please go home. I’ll handle everything.”
Douglas suddenly thundered, “Handle it? How exactly? The Stevens family may not be among the elite, but we still have our dignity! Now we’re being bullied right to our faces, and you, my ungrateful granddaughter, didn’t even tell me! Do you no longer respect me as your grandfather?”
Douglas’s rebuke, finally made Christina cry. “Grandpa, I’m sorry my incompetence has brought shame upon you.”
Douglas scoffed. “I’m already one foot in the grave, so my dignity doesn’t matter. But why didn’t you ask for help when Stevens Corporation was being pushed around like this?”
Christina wiped her tears and replied desperately. “Who do I ask help from, Grandpa? Even the Bridgefields Stevens family can’t match the Weller family–I had no options left!”
“No options? Can’t you see Andy is right here?” Douglas responded in frustration.
Christina hesitated, then shook her head and said, “Grandpa, I’ve already said this–Andrew can’t save the Stevens family. The Weller family is too powerful for an ordinary person to fight against.”
“Did you hear that, old man?” Harvey laughed. “We’re unstoppable. This nobody you brought won’t help you.”
Douglas trembled with anger as he retorted, “Kane was once a powerful figure in Jayrodale. How did he produce such a heartless beast? The Stevens family may be small, but we’re not yours to push around as you please, boy.”
Harvey sneered. “Now that you’re here, it saves me the trouble of coming after you after I take your granddaughter and your company, You’re near death anyway, and you should’ve lived your remaining days in peace. It seems like you’re just eager to die.”
“Harvey, if you dare lay a hand on my grandpa, Il fight you to the death!” Christina’s eyes blazed red with fury.
“Andrew, why did you bring Dad here?” Irene screamed. “You’re a walking disaster! Are you trying to get Dad killed too? Take him away right now!”
“Yes, Andrew, please get Grandpa out of here,” Christina pleaded urgently. “I can’t let anything happen to him.”
“While I’m here, nothing will happen to Mr. Stevens Senior,” Andrew stated calmly.

Douglas sighed and said, “Andy, I know the Stevens family has wronged you in the past. But I’m still going to swallow my pride and ask–will you help protect the Stevens family one more time?”
Andrew smiled. “Mr. Stevens Senior, since I came here with you, I won’t stand idly by. Don’t worry, the Stevens family will be safe.”
“Grandpa, this isn’t the time for games. You and Andrew need to leave. He can’t help us! Christina urged desperately.
“I told you
before that you missed the greatest chance of your life,” Douglas said coldly. “You foolish girl, you truly have no idea of Andy’s true capabilities!”
