Semua Bab The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage: Bab 2321 - Bab 2330

Frank nodded. "That's right. Take me home.""Sure."Shanton was Sue's turf after all, so how could she let her guest leave without hospitality? People would laugh at her for that!"Why don't you wait a couple of days before you go?" Sue asked tentatively.Frank shook his head. "Nah. Maybe some other time."Sue had no choice but to take Frank in her Lamborghini, and they were once again at that service area half an hour later.As Sue parked and alighted, ready to get some champagne from the supermarket, she bumped into a face she did not want to see.Ian Laney leaned against his GTR, smoking as he dissed her. "If it isn't Ms. Fisher. It's only been a couple of hours, but you look terrible.""Keep barking."Sue had no intention to play his games and was going to turn and leave when he cut her off."Don't just run away!" He chuckled. "Forgive me for asking, but why are you leaving Shanton in such a hurry? Wait, don't tell me that you're transporting Lugh Frankton's ashes?" Sue

"That's true!" Jada exclaimed. "But since there is a nuclear deterrent, nuclear force is basically irrelevant, so you'd still be invincible!"Frank ignored that and said, "We'd be short handed after Higo Soldi and the others leave. Recall more Cerulean Summit Legionnaires, and I'll grant them the power of the spiritron vein so that you'd have more manpower under your command.""Yes, Mr. Frankton."Frank then returned to his seat, asking, "So, what's going on with those out-of-state investors?""I knew you'd ask!" Jada smiled. "I straightened them out, and they promptly caved. But since they realized they'd lose in a physical confrontation, they switched to competing in trade again."Frank nodded. "If that's all they're doing, then we'll have to keep our distance."Jada smiled and nodded. "I know that. As long as they aren't hurting anyone, we don't have to make things bloody. There's always a way to deal with insects."Frank nodded, satisfied. "Where's Callie and the others?""

"Bloody Mary? As in the cocktail?" Sayna smirked.Naturally, she knew about the legend of Bloody Mary that was told before the cocktail, but she did not want to let slip a chance to diss Mary. Even if she was not given a beating, it was just a matter of time if Frank was not here.Mary glanced at Sayna in contempt and ignored her as she continued, "The auction company which Ken Zacek worked for is a subsidiary of BM Group, my family's company. In every generation, a member of the family named Mary would take full control and eliminate those who stand in their way!"Frank smiled in wry amusement—what was with that teenage fantasy? Also, they might as well settle for the Illuminati if they wanted to go that far."In that case, let's see how you're going to eliminate me!" He chuckled, not afraid of Mary's threat.Killing never led to accomplishments, and would Mary really dare move against someone as strong as him?Forget how strong Draconians were against foreigners—Frank had a hun

"That's no cause for worry, everyone. I've already killed Mary."Frank's words left the bigwigs astounded even before they could leave, dejected.While they were deliberately trying to screw Frank over, they also knew that he was not about to fall for it, only for him to have done it already.It was certainly exciting, as they had been plotting to eliminate Frank as he was one of the local bigwigs. And now that he had messed with someone he should not have messed with, they did not even have to lift a finger as that a behemoth would soon come bearing down on his head!"Well, farewell, Mr. Frankton! Remember to keep both eyes on your back now!"As Tim and the other off-state bigwigs laughed and left, Sayna refrained from rubbing Frank's nose in the matter. "Mr. Frankton," she told him, "just call upon me and family if you need help in the future. My family won't hold anything back."After all, she had a clearer picture of Frank's power, and some mere business conglomerate would

Jouri nodded. "I'll make the arrangements.""Thanks!"-By the evening, Nadia returned excitedly, announcing with a smug smile, "Guess what? I got it done without troubling Ms. Turin! They were all very cooperative and were ready to bail even if it meant losing money!"In reality, that was far from the truth as Nadia had to pay those companies out of her own pocket. She lied because she did not want Frank to feel burdened or that he owed her. She understood that owing occurred for blossoming love, but that also meant a guilty conscience.Unlike her sister, Nadia did not believe the end justified the means, so she did not do it.Frank nodded at her just then, smiling. "Good work."Nadia felt relief right then—it felt great to have his approval instead of his guilt.That was when Jada suddenly asked, "Ms. Quill, I'm sure you paid them out of your own pocket, didn't you?"If it were Sayna or Sue, Jada really would not have bothered to help them at all because she simply did not
