Semua Bab The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage: Bab 671 - Bab 680

Silverbell's bellow actually gave Maron pause, but he wheeled on Frank again. "It was during the last blow—Frank released some sort of powder out of his sleeve. I thought I was seeing things, but it's real!""I saw it too!" Elder Huxley bellowed and pulled Frank's sleeve, knocking off a pile of Passion Dust from Frank's sleeve."What…" Frank was dumbfounded, as he clearly saw Elder Huxley sprinkle the powder on his sleeve right then.Elder Huxley simply leaned close, growling a threat under his breath, "Don't you dare argue. You know what happens if you do.""F-Frank? Why…?!" Silvebell was wheezing, sweating buckets as her gaze turned unfocused.Frank remained silent—if he maintained his innocence, Maron would retaliate by hurting Helen and the others."See? He's silent because he's caught red-handed!" Maron laughed darkly at Frank and carried Silverbell to the infirmary. "Don't worry—our best healers will cure you soon enough!""So that's what he's up to." Frank's eyes flashed

There was a sickening crunch as the Sage Lake Sect apprentice's hand started to ice up, his skin soon freezing into a dried blackness.It was a sight of sheer horror, and the other Sage Lake Sect apprentices promptly backed away in fear."Urgh…" Dahok groaned as he stirred, pushing himself up to his seat in the shrine."Ingrate!!!" he finally snapped after mumbling the word repeatedly before coughing another mouthful of black blood.This time, everyone stayed well away, having learned their lesson.Dahok wheezed even as the black blood iced up on the floor, finally able to speak again."Go!" he bellowed. "Take down that bastard Maron and bring him to me!"Quinn and Frank traded glances, and both strode up."No, absolutely not!" Frank barked, holding up a hand."What… Why?" Dahok wheezed through shallow breaths but forced a smile nonetheless. "I haven't met you, sir, but I'm grateful that you saved my life. However, I shall have that treacherous boy… Today…""Are you sure the

As Maron left the shrine, he inhaled deeply as he looked up at the skies, murmuring, "Do you hear me, Maron Ocean? It's time you pay."Meanwhile, Maron brought Silverbell to the infirmary's bed, ready to undress her, when she caught his hand."What are you… doing…" Silverbell was heaving, her eyes unfocused and her whole body twitching, though she still retained her consciousness.Even as she kept fighting the Passion Dust's effect, she was shivering as she cringed toward the other end of the bed."Please don't resist, Lady Silverbell. I've found the way to clear the poison from your veins."Maron was grinning darkly as he unbuttoned his shirt and moved closer. "Don't worry—the Passion Dust is the real deal. I spent a fortune buying it from the South Sea, so that you'd have an unforgettable experience of carnal pleasure. You can't resist it even if you've completed Birthright—you have to be Ascendant rank, or you wouldn't even know what hit you.""I-It was you…" Silverbell drew h

Regrettably, Maron was undoubtedly Birthright rank.His eyes rolled up in their sockets as he slammed into the wall. At that moment, his pure vigor protection sent him bouncing back toward Frank, who was rolling up his sleeves."Maron Ocean…" He smiled as he slowly walked up to Maron. "I shall teach you a lesson now myself—you don't get to stand above the rest just because you're well-connected. Sure, it's necessary to have friends when you're out in the world, but you need to be able to hold your own before that!""Please, no more—Oof!" Maron grunted again as Frank kicked him to the wall again, knocking half of his teeth out.Watching as he slid down the wall, Frank seized him, slapping him until all his other teeth fell out."What's wrong, Maron? Done already?" Frank lifted him into the air even as his face was left swollen, grinning throughout."P-Please…" Maron kept begging, his words almost unintelligible."Oh, don't worry. I'm not done with you yet!" Frank grinned, baring

Frank drove straight to Salazar House with Quinn after leaving Sage Lake Sect.The Salazars had been messing with him too many times, and there was no reason to let them live now.Frank called Trevor on his way there, asking him to send his people over to clean up the mess he would make.-Donald Salazar was seated in his drawing room and having a drink with a guest, who happened to be none other than Eron White."Mr. Salazar, is it true?" Eron asked, looking hopefully at Donald. "You told me that Sage Lake Sect could restore me as the head of the family.""Don't worry." Donald spread his arms proudly without hesitation. "Maron Ocean and I had an agreement. Once he takes his place as the sect chief, he will restore my family to its former glory. When that happens, I just need to put a good word in—helping you reclaim your place as head of the White family couldn't be easier."Seeing how cheerful Donald was, Eron picked up his glass and saluted him fawningly. "Thank you so much,
