The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage

Glancing at Stella, Frank said earnestly, "Someone poisoned your brother, and it's a poison that only takes effect after a precise period of time. In other words, someone is trying to scapegoat me and incite a war between your family and myself."

Stella, seeing Frank's vague smile and the way he was staring at Troy, turned toward Troy too.

She realized right then that Troy must have planned all this!

She was already suspicious when Troy was on hand to receive them at the airport, and that premonition came true!

"You're lying!"

That was when a tearful Chelly shrieked hysterically at Frank, "You poisoned my brother, and you're still dressing it up with pretty words?! You're lower than scum! I'm telling my dad about this, and he'll bring all his men to kill you and everyone around you!"

"Calm down, Chelly!"

Stella ran up, intent on stopping Chelly's irrational ravings-but it was already too late.

She could feel the air stirring around Frank, and his smile turned into a glare.

"What was that... you'll kill everyone around me? Care to say that again?"

Frank stepped forward once, and a strong gale abruptly unfurled away from him. The air around the ring rustled, as if some behemoth had stirred from its slumber. The bloodlust was palpable, and both Chelly and Stella's face fell.

Stella especially was well aware that Frank was furious, and she felt a crushing sense of defeat and helplessness-the same feeling he had when he first met Frank! She was begging right then, "No... Mr. Lawrence! My sister is just upset-she doesn't mean it!"

However, Frank seemed to ignore

her as he growled, "I was going to save my strength and let bygones be bygones but you Favonis prove to be as ignorant as you are loathsome. Forget not seeing the

truth, but you even had to push my

buttons!"

His voice could well be the devil himself in Stella's ears, conjuring the image of death and bloodlust, leaving her shaking in fear.

Chelly was terrified too, but she

remained feisty, snapping, "Don't beg, Stella-you'd be humiliating our family! That bastard must have used some sleight of hand to poison Jaden!"

Then, shrugging free of Stella's grasp, she bellowed at Frank, "Come on, scumbag! Kill us if you can! My father will come after you for this!"

"Very well! I feel compassion for the weak, but that doesn't mean I will suffer fools!"

Frank laughed coldly, extending his palm and charging it with abundant pure vigor.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

However, before he could land his blow, Stella leapt toward him, dropped to her knees in front of him as everyone watched.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

As everyone looked on in shock, the sister of Laden Favoni, second in Skyrank and the heir to Norsedam's undisputed top dogs... kowtowed to their enemy so violently her O forehead started to bleed freely!

"Please, Mr. Lawrence! Chelly has always been stubborn and never listens. Don't stoop to getting petty with a brat like her!"

"Stella, what are you doing?!"

Chelly was dumbfounded too.

A member of their great Favoni dynasty was kowtowing to some despicable poisoner?!
