Semua Bab The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage: Bab 571 - Bab 580

Bravo nodded. "Oh, of course. I'll wait for you,"He was in no hurry, crouching as he waited in the hallway, even lighting himself a cigarette.Frank did not chase him off and returned to the podium in the lecture hall.He had certainly earned the respect of every student, and not just the girls—even the boys were at once grateful and worshipful.Still, the silent lecture hall was soon interrupted by a shrill, sarcastic voice. "Hmph. Just look at him, getting all smug because he has some powerful friends. Who knows if he really knows medicine?"Frank turned to find that it was the girl with dyed blonde hair from earlier who had rushed to Hal's side after Frank floored him.It seemed that she was upset with Frank because of Hal."So, you are skeptical about my medical knowledge?" Frank remained unaffected, standing on the podium with his hands clasped behind his back as he smiled. "I can already see the swelling bags under your eyes and the yellow specks at the corner of your eye

However, why would the Salazars of Sunny City have a problem with Kurt, whose operations were based in Riverton?Seeing the confused look on Frank's face, Bravo sighed. "You might not know this, but the Salazars had an agreement with us. We would secure a piece of land and pull strings across Riverton, while the Salazars would build a pharmaceutical factory, which they claimed would help them win a monopoly over Riverton's pharmacy business."Frank frowned. "If I recall, Kurt was poisoned even before the Salazars' Beauty Pill hit the market."Bravo nodded solemnly. "Yes. They did not like our asking price, and things went sour. Mr. Stinson must have been poisoned right then… But they returned after a while, very agreeable this time. They even had no problems with Mr. Stinson raising the price by twenty percent, though you saw the outcome for yourself—their Beauty Pill lost to the Turnbulls' Rejuvenation Pill, and that was when they refused to pay us the outstanding cost."Watching

"The Salazars have set a trap!" Bravo bellowed furiously. "We would've fallen for it if we didn't have Mr. Lawrence with us!"Then, turning toward Frank, he asked, "Are those threads…?"Frank was chuckling coolly upon a closer look. "They make up the outermost layer, and it's been laced with the sap of the Araneus Floret. Once you touch it, you'll lose consciousness before you know it, but it won't kill you.""It's child's play," he added. "Just keep your blades in front of you and flail around. Make sure not to get the sap on your skin. You'll be safe that way.""You heard him, boys!" Bravo turned toward his men and barked, "Don't let the threads reach your skin!"With that, he led the way, swinging his machete endlessly before him to cut off the threads.-"Hmmm…?"In the factory, Jaud White had just gotten off the phone with Donald Salazar, and he frowned.He could sense the perimeter threads being touched and sneered—Kurt Stinson's men had really come to reclaim this patch

Frank strode forward, his eyes narrowing threateningly."N-No…"Jaud started sweating all over his brow, having long since given up on the idea of fighting Frank directly.And now that he saw Frank, his first thought was to run—the further away, the better!"Damn it! Didn't Chaz Graves promise to bring in the Lionhearts and kill that son of a bitch?! That's so long ago, but here he is, still alive and kicking!"Even as Jaud cursed inwardly, he was flashing a smile that could well be a scowl. "Oh, hello, Mr. Lawrence! Long time no see…"Frank continued forward, his dark aura bursting. "Long time no see, huh? I guess that's true, since I still haven't settled things with the Salazars.""Oh, no, no, no…" Jaud quickly threw up his hands, quickly hatching a plan. "Come on, Mr. Lawrence! Ever since his son's death, Donald Salazar has been repentant. He's even attending church and told me not to get you upset and all that…""Really?"Frank chuckled coolly. "The last time I ran into h

Frank glowered as he projected his pure vigor. It manifested into a hammer out of thin air, swinging straight toward Jaud's chest!"Hell no!" Jaud suddenly leapt several meters into the air, dodging Frank's hammer.He clearly had no intention to fight Frank as he fled wildly out of the factory.Given how fast he moved, he was clearly pretending to be maimed before."You're running now? Too late!"Frank's pure vigor was still connected to him even after he projected it—it was an ability unique to the Five-Peat Archaeus.And with a wave of his hand, Frank turned the hammer that shot past Jaud back to him."What?!"Jaud thought he was safe as soon as he dodge the hammer earlier and did not expect it to still be under Frank's control!As the hammer turned back to him, it struck him squarely in the chest this time, sending him flying even as screamed."Gurk!" Jaud's chest was sunken, and he was coughing blood as well as pieces of his own lungs into the air.He landed heavily be
