Semua Bab The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage: Bab 961 - Bab 970

Gus laughed. "Haha. I definitely wouldn't lie to you, Mr. Lawrence."Suddenly, Frank found Gus' attitude toward him weird. After all, Gus should be on the Soranos' side and therefore hostile toward Frank. After all, half the reason Zam Sorano was killed was because of Frank. And yet, Gus was not showing any enmity toward Frank now—if anything, he was exceedingly polite, even kind, as if he were just an ordinary younger man."How did you sustain your injury, Mr. Zeller?" he asked nonetheless.Gus smiled. He could tell that Frank's question was clearly loaded and simply admitted, "I was ambushed one night, leaving my organs and meridian nexus in pieces. Thankfully, someone saved me from the ruins." "Someone saved you?" Frank repeated softly."Yes." Gus' gaze turned distant in recollection. "It was a young girl… a kind one. She fed me a golden pill that saved my life, even helping me improve to Ascendant rank."Pausing, he chuckled. "While my life and cultivation was saved, I was

Abel stopped Frank, smiling confidently. "This is Morhen, Mr. Lawrence, and I've been working here in Morhen for decades. I can't promise you that I can get you anything amazing, but decades and even centuries old natural wonders are not a problem at all. Just leave it to me!"If anything, Abel and Jim were hesitant because Frank's request was too simple, leaving them at a loss. After all, they were ready for Frank to demand something outrageous."Good." Frank nodded, agreeing to the offer and feeling assured.As he left, Abel watched him and sighed in relief, smiling. "He's as noble as he is generous…""Yeah." Jim nodded but soon turned worriedly toward his grandfather with a frown. "What about the Soranos, Gramps?"Abel laughed exasperatedly. "Don't think I can't see through your schemes, brat. That's why you wanted Mr. Lawrence to list his name with us, didn't you?"Turning and giving Jim a solemn look, he said, "I know. The Soranos are pulling all stops to get involved in the

"Okay." Helen nodded tamely."Hey, are you deaf, kid? Didn't you hear me?" Brody strode up, shoving Frank right then."It's okay, boss. Must be deaf and blind." One of his goons hurried forward to keep the peace."S-Shut up!" Brody slapped him across the face, snapping angrily, "I'm not blind or deaf! You don't have to tell me!"On the other hand, Frank did not attack right away despite being shoved, only saying coolly, "Leave before I get angry, or you'll all die here."His threat left Brody laughing, and he pointed at himself as he snorted. "Hey, are you really blind? There's so many of us, and you're telling us to leave? You should be leaving right now—but your girlfriend stays!""Urgh, we had to run into some imbeciles." Frank sighed, clenching his fist. "Last chance. Leave now, all of you."As he slowly looked up, his eyes flashing murderously, several of the thugs were flinching in terror.One of them said, "Brody, I-I don't think we should mess with him. Why don't we jus

"Soren's right. That bastard is nothing good!" The boys nearby quickly agreed."You can see his true nature now, can't you, Kat?" Soren smiled smugly—this was what he wanted—to tarnish Kat's image of Frank while salvaging her impression of him.However, he simply did not understand that Kat had already seen through him.Slapping his hand away, she snapped coldly, "What Master Lawrence is is no business of yours. You don't get to badmouth him!""Kat!" Soren could barely hide his rage and snapped, "I'm just worried about you and don't want you to be tricked, especially by the likes of him!"As he finished, he turned toward Frank pointedly."Oh, sure!" Kat sneered in disdain. "So I should let you trick me instead? It's time you understand what you did—it's really sickening if anyone had to put it into words. And Master Lawrence was nice enough to not hold it against you, but you had to keep badmouthing him every time. I'd be blushing if I were you!"Soren flushed from Kat's usual b

"Hmph."Frank snorted, his feet moving too quickly for the naked eye to follow.He disappeared from sight as if a phantom, leaving them looking around aimlessly."What? Where did he go?""How did he do that?!"Frank was already behind them.Crack.Pure vigor shot out of his fingers, leaving the thugs floored and screaming as their nerves and tendons were blocked, and they would not be standing up for over two weeks.Only Brody was left, and he was on his knees in fear.Frank wasted no time with him and turned toward Kat, who was already subdued and pressed against the floor by one of the bodyguards. Her cheeks were covered in bloodstains, but she kept fighting back without yielding.However, her retaliation was limp and tickled the bodyguard at best."You're asking for it!" Frank bellowed and charged toward the bodyguard like a storm.Even before he could look up in shock, Frank punched him, sending him rolling over the floor, his neck snapping with an audible crack."What
