Semua Bab The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage: Bab 2391 - Bab 2400

Frank smirked. "I'm not playing around. It's the truth!"Robbie smiled in wry amusement. "I hate it when people call me a foreigner, Mr. Frankton.""It's only natural when you're not a local!" Frank chuckled. Robbie rolled his eyes and said solemnly, "I'm working under Ms. Fisher, who is your friend, but I have my integrity to consider. If you keep being stubborn, don't blame me for refusing to cooperate!"Having expected that, Frank said bluntly, "Your real name is Robbie, and you're a biologist. You attended the same university as Igor and worked with him in researching a certain project. "Afterwards, you went your separate ways, and when you discovered a method for regeneration, you made a lot of money out of it. However, you were also targeted for some reason, so you had to go through facial reconstruction and fled here to Shagan, adopting a pseudonym while hiding under Igor's employment."Interestingly, Igor never saw through you even after so long, which goes to show how

Soon, Ace woke up.He struggled to his feet when he saw Frank, knowing that he lost. "Greetings, Mr. Frankton. Please forgive me for sneaking around, but I was mostly trying to test your abilities. And now, it seems that you're the only one who can protect me."Frank could already tell that Ace had gone through all that trouble for a reason. He asked, "Who's after you?"Ace shook his head. "That can wait. Aren't you interested in undoing the curse of the spiritron vein, and then leaving Shagan?"Frank smiled—that was exactly what he was waiting for. "And what's your solution?""It exists, but I can't tell you more than that right now."Ace smiled in turn. "But I promise that it's no lie, and I just need a few favors.""Tell me!""First of all, I want to meet my twin!"Frank then took Ace to Sue, who smiled when he saw that the man was really identical to Monte. "I didn't expect there's people like you, disguising yourself to look like your brother with surgery and still making

Frank was perplexed. "A brain chip? Isn't that stuff just science fiction?"Moreover, he did not get that feeling whenever he was with Monte, not to mention that the kid had his own opinions on things. There was no sign that he was brainwashed, so what…? Moxxi shook her head. "I knew you wouldn't believe me, and I doubted it too when I first met him, but he's strange, and that's a fact. You can ask the others if you like."Frank nodded, finding interest in the matter.Was he actually wrong, and that Monte would actually prove to be a threat?Even as the thought crossed his mind, Jouri strode in with a smile. "What's wrong, Mr. Frankton? Are you actually frustrated? That's unlike you."Frank smiled in wry amusement. "Do I look frustrated? This whole thing is peanuts."Jouri nodded. "Anyway, I've investigated Heracles Group, and my advice is to hold back for now! Naturally, I'm not saying that you'd lose, but it's just that there's a difference when it comes to spiritron veins.

Frank raised a brow. "So you're saying that he's actually the mastermind behind everything?"Jouri nodded. "At the very least, he's several steps ahead of everyone else… He was also the one who led you to Shagan.""What?!" Frank exclaimed, utterly confused.Jouri shrugged. "With Sally York stealing the power of the spiritron vein, we had to find a way to find it a new owner. You're strong and could even reach the top of the world without the spiritron vein, but you have to understand that political influence is able to close that gap.""That's true! So what is this about?"Frank smiled, whipping out the photo of the girl. "You have plenty more resources than I have. Why not go find her yourselves?""Five works in mysterious ways," Jouri replied, shaking her head. "We have no idea why he'd asked you either, but he had express orders for us not to help.""Whatever," Frank replied, unbothered.Help aside, he definitely could find the girl if he wanted to.Soon, they were both ba

While Sylvie and Frank continued their conversation, a rustling sound could be heard from a sarcophagus.Instead of getting spooked, Sylvie exclaimed excitedly, "Could it be a zombie? I've never seen one in my years of tomb exploration—I'd die happy if I actually see one!"Frank smiled in wry amusement—was this what a professional archaeologist should be saying?Still, it was understandable since tomb exploration movies were the trend, and being in the business meant Sylvie might be hoping to get in on the action too.Frank then strode up, ready to open the sarcophagus, when he remembered something.Turning to Sylvie, he asked, "Should I open it?"Archaeology was not tomb raiding—one did not simply pry into any oddities, and restoration was priority. They must not destroy anything if possible, which was why Frank would like Sylvie's opinion."Just open it." Sylvie shrugged. "Oddities have to be investigated, or they would terrorize the next guy."Frank chuckled and gently opene
