rising from the ashes Chapter 257

rising from the ashes Chapter 257 Without waiting for Andrews input , the two women eagerly ordered drinks .
The restaurant manager approached with a respectful smile to make suggestions .
Ms.
Rhodes , Ms.
Aicker , for refined young ladies like yourselves , Id recommend our premium wine selection , the manager suggested smoothly .
Its gentle on the throat and wont leave you feeling unwell .
Lauren scoffed at his recommendation .
Who do you think we are ? Bring us your best vodka ! Francesca slapped the table in agreement , adding Exactly ! Wine tastes like fancy water .
We want the strong stuff ! The manager turned helplessly to Andrew , clearly impressed that this mysterious man had earned the company of two of Jayrodales most prominent heiresses .
Andrew simply smiled and said , Let them have whatever they want .
Their happiness is what matters .
By the end of the meal , they had barely touched the food but had emptied two bottles of premium vodka .
Andrew was amazed at Lauren and Francescas tolerance .
The alcohol level was really high , yet each woman had finished an entire bottle .
Lauren leaned against Andrew , her breath sweet with alcohol as she murmured , Dr.
Lloyd , I have a secret Ive wanted to tell you .
Andrew , who had barely drunk anything himself , smiled and replied , Im all ears , Ms.
Rhodes .
11 Lauren moved closer , her perfume subtle and intoxicating as she gazed at Andrew until he felt almost shy .
Finally , she whispered softly , I … have fallen for you ! The simple confession caught Andrew completely off guard .
Looking at Laurens flushed face and stunning features , he found himself at a loss for words .
The alcohol had made Laurens thoughts fuzzy as she curled up against Andrews chest .
I dont want to marry into the Driscoll family , she mumbled .
Ive only ever liked Dr.
Lloyd .
I hope youll give me that King of Diamonds … With that , she drifted off to sleep while still clutching Andrews shirt .
Andrew could only smile wryly at the situation .
Did he just receive a drunken confession ? However , Lauren had mentioned the Driscoll family .
It seemed the Rhodes family had arranged a marriage alliance that she clearly did not want .
Fran , are you okay ? Andrew called out with concern to Francesca , who had also drunk quite a bit .
Looking up , he found she had already curled up asleep in her corner of the couch .
Andrew rubbed his temples , wondering what he was supposed to do now that both women had passed out from drinking .
