Chapter 2081
---- Chapter 2081 Even though Rowan did not actually manage to rescue Andrew in the end, her life-risking
determination and loyalty had still moved him. More importantly, she was someone he had not crossed paths
with in years, and she seemed to look at him differently now. So, if he rashly stepped in to save her now, would
he end up getting entangled in a relationship he could not shake off? Looking up at the pitch-black sky above,
Andrew found himself genuinely torn. He mumbled, "You tried to saveonce before, even though I didn't need
saving.
Since I've stumbled across this situation, | can't just stand by and watch someone suffer. I've never been able to
turn a blind eye to people in trouble!" After finding himself a reason, Andrew took two quick steps to reach the
locked courtyard gate. As soon as he got close, he could hear Rowan's heartbroken sobs from inside. In Andrew's
memory, the Onyx Serpents had always been reasonably powerful among the three major gangs in Gabo Creek.
Nonetheless, they were not particularly strong.
Now that Goldridge had undergone massive changes and ---- Jerhad fallen, both the Hidden Dragons and
Crimson Alliance had chosen to seek protection under bigger powers. The Crimson Alliance had directly aligned
itself with the McCormick family, while Riker from the Hidden Dragons had becHenry's lapdog. Only the
Onyx Serpents had endured repeated suppression while refusing to submit. Eventually, they were forced to leave
Goldridge and seek another path. After wandering around, they ended up in Sunstrand, the McDaniel family

In her helpless state, Rowan had fallen into the trap set by Eugene, the eldest son of the McDaniel family.
Andrew did not need much more than a guess to piece it together. He gripped the door lock and channeled his
internal energy. Immediately, the lock shattered and the door swung open. Under the soft indoor lighting, a
delicate and helpless figure was crouched on the ground, hugging herself and sobbing. Before he even got close,
a cool, sweet fragrance reached him. Andrew froze for a second. He remembered this scent from years ago, and
it had always lingered around her.
"Eugene, no matter how you force me, I'll never give in. The Onyx ---- Serpents may wither, even vanish
completely, but | will never sell my body," Rowan said firmly. She straightened slowly, icy resolve in her tone.
When there was no response from behind her for a while, she grew curious and slowly turned around. Then, she
froze completely, as if struck by lightning, standing rigid in place. Tears still clung to her pale, flawless cheeks,
glistening under the light. Rowan's beauty was like a white flower from the mountains, pure, pristine, with a
touch of fragility.
She loved wearing white dresses, which gave her an ethereal quality. Martial artists carried themselves with a
certain poise, much like dancers trained in ballet: tall, graceful, magnetic. Rowan's presence was the best of the
best. Andrew felt the silence stretching awkwardly and opened his mouth to speak. However, before he could,
Rowan rushed forward and covered his lips with her hand. She darted to the door, slammed it shut, and bolted it
from the inside. "My God, what are you doing here? Andrew, are you insane? Don't you know this is McDaniel
territory?
