The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 15

Chapter 15 

After some thought, Frank took a deep breath and said, Denying a person income is no different 

from murderif you’ve already considered giving them the project, Ms. Turnbull, I have no cause to tell you to do otherwise.” 

Vicky smiled at Frank as she studied him. It seems to me that you’re just not keen on pushing them too far. Linger attachment to Ms. Lane, perhaps?” 

If that’s what you think of meFrank shot her a look. Can’t say anything to that

Have you not considered taking in a new lover now that you’re single, Mr. Lawrence?” 

Frank shook his head. Not interested.” 

Vicky pursed her l*pshis response was somewhat a killjoy

Still, she did not press the issue

She certainly could not hurry things since Frank had just divorced Helen a couple of days ago

Well, I’m sure you’re more interested in herbal treasures,she said, nonchalantly opening the box. You can have this panacea cap” 

A faint sweet aroma swirled into the air immediately, and Frank was promptly focused as he studied the panacea cap meticulously

Vicky rolled her eyes. Honestlyyou didn’t have such concentration when you were looking at me!”

Frank completely ignored her, however, and suddenly shook his head in disappointment. It’s a fake

JI 

What?!Vicky did a double take. That b*sta*d brought a fake to my house as a gift?!” 

Frank shrugged. It’s 50 years old at best. No chance it’s a centennial.” 

For panacea caps, its medical efficacy would differ greatly even if there was just a yearsage gap, leading to the difference in value for each individual cap

And Vicky was all too aware of that

Still, it is more or less useful. Why don’t you sell it to me?Frank suggested

Vicky smiled generously. No, you can just take it if you need it, Mr. Lawrence.” 

Alright, I owe you one now,Frank nodded he did not have any moment right now. Also, I’m going if there’s nothing else” 

Actually, if you could outside for a moment, Mr. Lawrence,Vicky quickly said. I’d like to introduce you to an illustrious gentleman. I’ll have someone deliver the panacea cap to your penthouse later.” 

Thank you,Frank said and returned to the banquet hall

Gina promptly approached him, once again behaving like a fishwife now that Vicky was gone. did you tell Ms. Turnbull?” 

Nothing,Frank replied flatly

What 

You’re not fooling anyone,Gina snapped stubbornly right then. Do you think I’d believe you?” 

Frank shrugged. Believe what you want. What does that have to do with me?” 

Helen stopped Gina just then. I believe you, Frank. And I know that you’re upset with me, but I’d rather you didn’t cheapen yourself. Vicky Turnbull isn’t all that she seems, and you wouldn’t even know if she betrayed you someday.”
