Semua Bab The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage: Bab 1601 - Bab 1610

Just as Fleur was laughing gleefully, Frank raised a brow, and a subtle strand of pure vigor shot out of his finger.It shot straight toward Fleur along the lining of the tile floor, and it was too late by the time Mr. Noon noticed.Smack!The pure vigor materialized into palm, slapping Fleur across the face so viciously several of her teeth flew out, and she dropped limply on the floor, seeing stars.Yora promptly wheeled on Frank and snapped, "Insolence! How dare you, Frank Lawrence!"Beside her, Mr. Noon only moved closer to her without going to help Fleur.Nonetheless, Frank shrugged. "What?"On the other hand, Fleur was finally helped to her feet, and her eyes flared even as she pointed a trembling finger at Frank. "You brat… How dare you…""Why is everyone looking at me here? Someone simply got her comeuppance for running her mouth—it's not my fault," Frank said, glancing at Helen.Helen was surprised too but soon flashed a wry smile.She knew that it was Frank, and whi

Jon Lane—Gavin Lane's second son—alighted. "Madam Lang? What are you doing out here? Dad's saying that Grandfather fell sick, and he's asking you to head back right away."He was very respectful, since he had no idea why his grandfather was sick in the first place.As he finished and turned to see the imposing woman beside Fleur, he stiffened right then. "Madam Yimmel? W-What are you doing here? My dad just sent someone to Bralog—"Yora snorted coolly. "Hmph! It would be the end of the world if I had to wait that long!"Jon quickly hung his head, sweating all over his brow in silence. After all, Yora held a special place in the family—not only was she Mark Lane's first wife, but she was also the foundation which Mark built his success in business upon.One might say that the Lane family would not enjoy their current status without the Yimmels' help—even Mark usually had to defer to her.And since Yora was as unreasonable as she was assertive, the Lane were all terrified of her.

"B-But even if Grandfather wouldn't listen, you didn't have to go that far. He's your husband, and…"Jon trailed off feebly as fear seized him.If Yora could go that far, it made sense that she could eliminate him for her own ends.And to no surprise, Yora narrowed her eyes dangerously at him as she snorted. "Hmph. I guess I can make it simple for you—go back to Laneville and take your place as the new head of the Lane family… Or I'd just have to pick someone else."Jon gulped, as his worst fear had come true.If he refused Yora, he would not fare any better than his grandfather.What choice did he have if he wanted to stay alive?Hence, after some thought, Jon quietly nodded.However, his face was ashen, and he certainly did not appear pleased or thrilled to become the new head of the Lane family."Very good."Yora clapped him on the shoulder with a smile. "Though you might be head of the family in name only, you stand to gain much. Just stick to being a figurehead—don't wor

While Jon was really not bothered by the details, something occurred to him and he asked gingerly, "By the way, how much is the medicine?""How much…?The elderly woman suddenly breathed a grating laugh that Jon had to hold his handset away from his ear.And when she was done laughing, the elderly woman rasped, "It's a favor to an old friend. Money can wait."And with that, she hung up."Huh…"Jon shook his head exasperatedly as he put away his phone. "That's just freaky…"After he sighed and opened the staircase door, he found a familiar face leaning against the wall and smiling at him."Y-You're… Frank Lawrence?!"Jon was shocked his voice quivered."Hehe. Long time no see, Jon…"Frank strode over, clapping him on the shoulder, but suddenly narrowing his eyes. "Or is it Master Lane now?"Hearing Frank say 'Master Lane' almost left Jon with a heart attack, and he promptly flashed an apologetic smile. "What are you saying, Mr. Lawrence? I have no intention to take over as f

"Lake Cove, huh?"Frank nodded in disappointment, but it made sense that a secret outfit like Corpsedale would maintain secret between hierarchies.If anything, it was amazing that a pawn had a general idea of where his boss was."Go on, make it quick!"Borc clenched his teeth just then, clearly ready to die."Oh, hahaha…" Frank suddenly laughed. "But I wasn't going to. There's someone else who's really interested in meeting you."And as Borc looked on in shock, Frank struck him on the back of his head with the side of his palm, knocking him out.Then, after feeding Borc a latent poison pill, he called for members of Lanecorp's health and safety department. He instructed them to take Borc to Jade Zahn, so she could have her revenge against her daughter's killer.After dealing with Borc, Frank threw Jon's suit in a garbage can and called Helen. "Prepare a share transfer agreement.""A share transfer agreement…?"Helen was exceedingly surprised—she was being forced to leave Lan
