Chapter 236 Finally Arrived

The three of them immediately thought of Jodie while Andrew glanced at the table and realized that hehad eaten a lot, but he still didn’t feel satisfied. “I don’t know what came over me today. I’m famishedand want to eat.”

Luca said, “Stop eating. If you keep going, you’ll ruin your stomach.”

Although Andrew still had the desire to eat, he wasn’t as hungry as before. In addition, he was afraid ofovereating and damaging his stomach, so he reluctantly put down the food. “Alright.” He yawned. “I’mso tired. I’m going upstairs to sleep.”

Titus noticed that his fourth brother was in a very bad state, looking completely listless, and couldn’thelp but ask, “Did Jo come to see you tonight?”

Andrew was puzzled. “Yeah, why?”

Titus asked again, “She asked you for luck, and you gave it to her?”

Andrew was stunned. “How did you know?”

Titus wanted to facepalm. This idiot actually gave it to her. Looking at Andrew with a sympathetic gaze,he said, “Andrew, you’re on your own now.”

Luca and Aaron were relieved when they heard that Andrew had given it to her and said in unison,“Andrew, you’re on your own now.”

Otherwise, they didn’t know what else to say. No wonder Andrew’s behavior was so strange just now;he didn’t even feel satisfied after eating so much, and his overall state of mind also looked very poor.

As it turned out, he had given his luck to Jodie, but both of them were shocked once again by howquickly she reacted and deeply realized that this thing was too mysterious, and so was Jodie.

They were waiting to see what would happen to Andrew after seven days.

Being stared at by his brothers with sympathetic and angry gazes and being told to fend for himself,Andrew didn’t know why, but he had a strange and uncomfortable feeling. Glaring at the three of them,he exclaimed, “Are you guys crazy? I’m fine. And also, what’s going on with you guys lately? Why areyou all against Jo? Did Simone say something to you? Although we are partly responsible for Simoneleaving, you can’t blame Jo for it. You guys-” He lectured the three of them seriously and meant to tellthem not to blame Jodie and to continue treating her well.

Couldn’t be bothered to argue with him, Titus reckoned that nothing he said would make a differencesince Andrew had already fallen into the trap. However, he didn’t want to hear these senseless words,so he immediately interrupted. “Okay, I’m sick, alright? I’m afraid my

illness will affect you and Jo, so I’ll move out tonight.” He didn’t dare to stay at home anymore, andAndrew happened to give him an excuse.

Luca and Aaron were speechless, thinking, Titus is so clever to replace an excuse so quickly. Neither ofthem dared to stay at home as well. Although Jodie had taken Andrew’s luck, nobody knew if shewould be satisfied and continue to target them.

Luca said, “I’m sick. I’ll also move out.”

Aaron chirped in, “I’m seriously ill. I’m moving out, too.”

When Andrew heard the three of them say this, he was speechless. “Are you serious?”

Titus nodded. “We can’t be more serious. Andrew, this family relies on you now.” After saying that, heran away. Quickly, he packed up in his room and left, not wanting to stay at home for even a minute.

Luca and Aaron became anxious when they saw Titus running so fast, and Aaron said. “Andrew, Joand this family rely on you.” After saying that, he left, too.

Luca patted Andrew’s shoulder and said, “It’s hard for you to bear it alone, but keep it up! Call us if youneed anything.” After saying that, without waiting for Andrew to respond, he also left.

Seeing the three of them disappear one by one, Andrew thought to himself, These three really havesomething wrong with their heads. But he was too tired and exhausted to think about anything else, sohe went back to his room and fell asleep.

Titus and Aaron packed up their things and left home as quickly as possible. Luca was delayedbecause he received a call from his agent. When he finished packing and was about. to leave with hissuitcase, he ran into Jodie in the hallway, the latter humming a tune and in at good mood.

When Jodie found Luca alone, her eyes lit up, and she sweetly called out, “Luca, why are you. holdinga suitcase?”

In the past, when she smiled like this, Luca would replace her sweet and cute. But now, with the dim light inthe hallway, it seemed eerie no matter how he looked at it, and he felt as if he was a delicious piece ofmeat.

Despite his nervousness, he maintained a normal expression on his face. “My agent called and askedme to record a song.”

Jodie said, “But you don’t have to move out for that, right?”

Luca smiled. “I need to go out for a few days to replace some inspiration.”

Pushing her wheelchair, she glided toward him and looked up at him with a dependent look in her eyes.“Luca, I’ve been having a rough time lately, and you-”

She was no longer satisfied with one-third of Andrew’s luck. If she wanted to become popular bycounterattacking in the next variety show, she needed even better luck. Since she ran into Luca alone,she wouldn’t hold back anymore.

As soon as he heard her speak, he had a feeling that she had come for him. Afraid that she mightsuddenly grab his hand or replace an excuse to touch him, he immediately interrupted her before she couldfinish speaking.

Raising his hand to check the time, he casually said, “Jo, I’m sorry, but I have to rush to the airport now.It’s getting late, and if I delay any longer, I won’t be able to catch my flight. I’ll talk to you properly whenI come back.”

After saying that, he quickly dragged his suitcase and ran off. It wasn’t until he drove out of the villaarea that he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Earlier, he was almost scared to death.

As he drove into the city, his tense nerves finally relaxed. Finding a place to park, he then took out hisphone, created a separate group, and added his second and fifth brothers to it. Then, he sent a voicemessage to the group, recounting what had just happened.

Both Titus and Aaron were relieved that they had escaped quickly. This time, Luca had reacted swiftlyand fled before Jodie could make a move. Otherwise, they would have wasted. a precious amulet, and

all of them felt as if they had narrowly escaped a catastrophe. Simultaneously, they couldn’t help butsympathize with Andrew and lit a row of candles in their hearts in his honor.

Meanwhile, Jodie had just realized that Luca had fled so quickly, which left her speechless.

What’s happening? Why did Titus and Luca react so strangely upon seeing me? Her expressiondarkened as she narrowed her eyes and thought to herself, You can run, but you can’t hide. I won’t letyou escape my grasp.

In the following days, Titus and the other two did not return home. At the same time, Reuben went on abusiness trip with Steven while Salma was back at her parents’ house. Only Andrew, who needed torest for most of the day to recover, and Jodie, who was slowly regaining her appearance but wastormented by her etiquette teacher every day, remained at home.

On this particular day, Simone was about to report to the film crew when two unexpected guests arrivedat her house.
