Chapter 1121 Andrew replied coolly, "Alright, fine.
I did do it on purpose.
But the only reason I chose the room next to yours was so it'd be easier for you to wakeup in the mornings.
Nothing moreso don't go overthinking it." Aspen crossed her arms and let out a cold laugh.
"You think I'm buying that?" Andrew shrugged.
"Whether you believe it or not doesn't matter.

Aspen was instantly at a loss for words.
Her cheeks turned she was sure that the bastard Andrew was still lusting after her body.
Andrew seemed to read her mind and scoffed, "You dumb woman.
Don't flatter yourself.
Do you really think the only reason I went through the trouble of snatching Serenity Villa from Zachary and picked the room next to yours was just to sleep with you?" As Aspen let out a sarcastic chuckle, Andrew headed downstairs, adding, "I did it because you're weak.

Yet, when she replayed Andrew's earlier expression in her head, he really did not seem like he was scheming to get her into bed.
For sbizarre reason, her heart started beating faster as she wondered if Andrew was actually worried about her.
Aspen refused to accept that and gave her cheeks a light slap, muttering, "Snap out of it.
Aspen, do not get moved by this.
It's all in your head.
He does one remotely nice thing, and you start catching feelings? Girl, this is textbook Stockholm syndrome. You need to stay grounded.
Get a grip!"" Just then, Andrew's impatient voice echoed from downstairs.
"Quit dragging your feet.
Let's go!" Aspen rushed down the stairs in her heels.
She did not even realize that by now, Andrew's random commands had becsomething she instinctively obeyed without protest.
Outside Serenity Villa, Xavier and his group were already growing restless.
As soon as they saw Andrew cout, they strode up to him.
Nyour price.
I want the house," Xavier said bluntly, his tone icy and direct.
---- Andrew smiled.
"That doesn't seem very reasonable.
I just bought the placewhy would I turn around and give it to you?" A wealthy heir named Ethan Walker scoffed.
"Colonel Haywood giving you the tof day means he sees svalue in you.
So.
you'd better show respect and cut the crap." The others quickly chimed in.
"Exactly.
You're not the kind of guy who can handle a place like Serenity Villa." "If you hand it over to Mr.
Haywood now, you might earn sgoodwillwhich could turn into a fortune.
Isn't that a sweet deal?" "Kid, we know exactly who you are.

That's your only option.
Otherwise, if something happens to you, who is going to own the house? Ghosts That last line was pure En: venoma blatant, open-ended threat. However, Andrew simply shook his head.
Ethan scowled.
"What the hell does that mean? Yes or nogive us a straight answer"m Andrew looked him dead in the eye, then suddenly laughed. "My straight answer? Go screw yourself." Ethan's face turned beet red.
"What did you just say, you son of a Aspen felt her scalp tingle.
This devil really did not hold back at all.
After all, across from them stood a colonel in the militarythat was serious.
If things escalated, the army might actually get involved! "] said, go screw yourself.
Do you have a hearing problem now?" Andrew replied coldly, his eyes flashing with danger.
Unlike Aspen, he did not give a damn about titles like 'Colonel.' That meant nothing to him.
