Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage: Kabanata 1571 - Kabanata 1580

On the other hand, if Ashley decided to lie, she would have to suffer Frank's wrath.And that meant…Ashely flinched even as she saw the headless corpse in the distance—talk about a terrifying precedent!She threw all caution into the wind right then. The family business was important, but not as important as her life!"I'm sorry, Mr. Lawrence!" she yelled as the crowd looked on. "I brought you the wrong suit—""Hmm? The wrong suit, you say?" Frank's eyes turned cool. "I told you to be honest, didn't I?"Ashley flinched from Frank's looming presence and quickly corrected herself. "No, no, no… It was all me… I wanted to make a quick buck, so I brought you a cheap knock-off suit! It's all on me, and I regret my actions!"With that, she started begging panickedly, "I was blind and ignorant! Please, just let me go—I'll return your money!"Frank was relieved to hear that, and stood up, looking down at Ashley as he asked, "And how much did I pay you?""O-One million! That's how muc

"I… I…" Ashley was at a loss for words as her brother and mother kept shooting her looks. She eventually closed her eyes and decided to lie. "Yes! The people who kidnapped me coerced me and told me to stick to the script…""What?!" Frank was incensed—how brazen could Ashley get?! To think she and her entire family could spout such bare-faced lies!"See?!"Theo promptly leapt up, yelling, "My sister was innocent! It's all Frank Lawrence's doing! He was conspiring with Gina, who wanted to slander our family and our business because of her long-standing feud with my mother!""Slander?!"Many wedding guests nodded in understanding when they heard the word—that certainly made sense."What…"At the same time, Gina finally understood how one could never win against the mob.Even as she turned to shoot a pleading look at her daughter, Helen was already being targeted too."Tut, tut… I guess Lanecorp must be behind this! They intend to harass the Whitesons' business and tarnish the

Theo folded his arms before his chest and shot Frank a look of disdain. "I know you're doing your best to keep up appearances, but now you're just insulting our intelligence."Noticing that the wedding guests were all looking at him just then, he continued confidently, "Everyone, why don't you consider who Gene Pearce is? He's the richest man on the east coast! And his company, Pearce Group, has countless smaller businesses and enterprises under its name!"Even my father's high-end boutique and Pearson Group where I work is basically owned by Gene Pearce! Considering how important he is, would he be reachable by a simple phone call?! Do you think we're as stupid as you are, brat?!"Nonetheless, Frank had turned on the speaker on his phone, allowing Gene to hear everything Theo had just said."Frank, who's that talking over there?" he asked, his tone at once sinister."Hehe. Just some blind fool—"Before Frank could finish, Theo smirked at him and strode over, snatching his phone

Frank winked at Theo even as he chuckled, "Actually, I called your father without you noticing earlier and threatened him into putting up an act with me. So, were you shocked or surprised?"Theo could die right then, finally realizing why Frank was laughing the whole time, even clapping and congratulating him.After all, he was congratulating him for sending his whole family to their deaths!Judging from Gene's outburst earlier, he was not sparing a single person in his family."Ah…"In the distance, Ilsa was the first to collapse on the floor, unconscious.Seeing that, Theo quickly rushed over to resuscitate her and help her up.Even as she stirred, she realized in shock that everything that happened to Gina was now happening to her—albeit a lot worse.While they were not really working directly for Pearce Group, their family worked for one of their subsidiaries. As such, they would pay for their rudeness toward Gene just now."Oh, Theo… My son! It's all over for us!" Ilsa ho

Helen was as beautiful as she was successful, but Gina had no right to a son-in-law with such horrific connections!Even so, the whole thing started because Ilsa's greedy daughter Ashley wanted Frank's million dollars for herself and sold him a cheap knock-off suit.In fact, the only one innocent person in their family was Monrad, throwing a hissy fit even as the rest of them dragged him into their mess.Ashley, who was untied, was left staring blankly as she sat beside Ilsa, murmuring to herself repeatedly, "I should've been honest and respectful to Mr. Lawrence… This wouldn't happen to us otherwise… I should've been honest and respectful to Mr. Lawrence…" "Shut up!"Theo almost snapped at his sister's chanting, springing to his feet as he bellowed, "I knew it! You're just going to blame me—but who could have known that he was really a wolf in sheep's skin?! Why can't he just tell us directly that he's such a big deal?! He did it on purpose, just so that we'd look like clowns…"
