rising from the ashes Chapter 573 rising from the ashes Chapter 573 +15 BONUS Holy ! Its a whole platter of solid gold bars .
Madblade Martial Academy sure knows how to make a statement ! Seriously , how much would all that gold be worth ? Must be at least a few million dollars .
Are they really trying to cozy up to Moonlit Apothecary that hard ? The extravagant gift had everyone buzzing .
Even Francesca and Lauren were momentarily stunned .
Mr.
Sanford , this is way too much .
Youre just here for a meal .
Theres no need for such a grand gesture .
Please , take it back , Francesca said , extending the tray toward Rochey .
While she was pleased with Andrew receiving gifts , this level of generosity was overwhelming .
Her kind hearted nature made her feel awkward accepting so much gold .

Exactly ! What a shameless guy ! Rodney thought bitterly .
He couldve just said he wanted the gold outright instead of pretending to be all noble Francesca burst into laughter , covering her mouth as she shook her head at Andrew .
