His calling her a "friend" left her speechless. After all, she had said at the time that if she didn't accept the money, they couldn't even be friends.
"Alright, fine, but we're just friends," she emphasized. Andrew Lee didn't push further, only smiling at her words.
"Uncle Andrew is biased!" At this moment, the little one holding Andrew's hand protested. Andrew ruffled his hair, "Of course, Uncle Andrew will always be Tommy's best friend, too."

But now, the involvement of Robert Thomson and Dylan King had worn her down.
Not to mention, she still had a lifelong attachment to Robert within her belly.
