Andrea feels chills creep up her spine. The situation was already a mess, but Andrew’s arrival is sure to complicate things. Anthony’s hand is still poised in the air as if he’s still waiting to hit Gabrielle, but he quickly shoves it into his pocket.
“Mr. Clifford, it’s a pleasure to see you,” he says smoothly.
Andrew has casually placed his hands in his pockets, and he takes another sharp glance at Andrea. She stares back at him with diamond eyes—dazzling, attractive, and cold. He feels his heart start to pound out of control. He now knows that the previous owner of the heart felt similarly when he saw Andrea.
“It’s too bad I don’t have time for family drama,” he says with an arrogant laugh, keeping his gaze fixed on Andrea, “It would seem I’m here to take someone away.”
