The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 370
Looking around at everyone confidently, Helen snapped, "So? What are we spacing around for? Send out invitations to everyone already—tell them that Grandfather's birthday will be celebrated at Riverton Hotel!"-Henry's birthday banquet was held a few days late. The staff was especially enthusiastic thanks to Gerald, who spared no expense and asked only for the best, and his arrangements.Helen wore a black dress with a slit that kept her legs vaguely visible, as she stood at the hallway to greet guests.Even those who were usually lukewarm toward the Lanes were now taking them seriously, since not just anyone got to book a hall at Riverton Hotel.A balding middle-aged man strode toward Helen with a present in hand. "You really play your cards close to the chest, Ms. Lane. Could've told me sooner that you're throwing a real party here.""Thank you, Mr. Voor, but it's all courtesy of Gerald Simmons." Helen smiled, letting slip of her family's connection with the Chief of General A

Helen stammered, "I…I'm really happy you could come."She wanted to clear the air after her misunderstanding with Frank before but did not know where to start.Frank did not glance at her twice, however, and turned as he headed inside the hall.Zeb chuckled by the entrance just then. "Hey, what present did you bring?"Frank shot him a look. "Do I have to tell you?"Zeb laughed coldly. "Haha! Just worried you can't afford anything for Mr. Lane's eightieth birthday. Should I lend you some money?"Frank glanced at the present box he was holding and could tell it was another vase from its size.He chuckled. "What, you bought another vase? Watch out and don't trip over yourself this time.""Fuck off…" Zeb snapped, though he was tightening his grip around his present.Frank sneered as he entered the banquet hall.Henry was at the host table, his eyes closed to rest after some small talk with a group of bigwigs.He would rather not be a part of such a grand celebration but had no c

Gina quickly pulled Zeb to sit beside him, "You're finally here, Mr. Larkin. Come, sit."Cindy and Peter also promptly served him drinks and cigarettes, a privilege Frank never had.Gina turned to Henry right then. "It's all thanks to Mr. Larkin that we can celebrate your birthday here. You should appreciate him more.""And you can shove it," Henry snorted impatiently. "I never asked for this—the way I see it, it would have been far better if there wasn't a party at all.""Oh, would you stop it? We'd be the ones seen in a bad light if we didn't do anything," Gina lectured.Frank was frowning in turn.He knew a thing or two about Riverton Hotel, and he doubted Zeb had the authority to pull strings."Did he really book this hall?" he asked suspiciously."Who else would have, if not him? You?" Peter shot back."The Chief of General Affairs' secretary came to visit us personally. What, are you jealous?" Cindy joined in."The Chief of General Affairs' secretary? Do you have his na

"A million is expensive!" Peter exclaimed in awe. "But I guess it's pocket change for you.""Oh, thank you so much, Mr. Larkin." Gina smiled before turning toward Henry. "See? That's Mr. Larkin's present for you."Henry took out a magnifying glass to study the pattern before asking curiously, "How old did you say this was?" Zeb smiled. "A century old. Do you like it, sir?"Henry nodded. "It's not bad…"Despite disliking Zeb, he was still interested in antiques of such value.Frank, however, was frowning. "That's a hundred years old? Doesn't really look like it."Zeb's heart could stop even as he turned to Frank in panic. "What are you talking about?"The real vase he bought before ended up in pieces—this time, he bought a bootleg item.However, the stall owner assured him that even with advanced technology, only specialists could see the difference."Shut up!" Gina snapped at Frank again. "What would you know? And you don't get to talk around this table!""I don't know my a

"Let's see!"Everyone else was curious since Henry really liked Frank's gift, only to be disappointed when they saw that it was just a painting.Gina rolled her eyes. "What's so impressive about that?""Exactly." Peter pursed his lips. "Some dull paintings are worth a lot less than the porcelain vase."Henry frowned. "Dull painting? It's an Alfie Bronx piece—did you ever finish school, not knowing who he is?"Cindy pointed at Frank. "What, just because he said so? He could say it's by King Arthur for all I care!""Haha!" Zeb laughed. "Sir, I don't mind telling you but paintings are easiest to fake, especially if they're old. No canvas would be preserved this well—the way I see it, it's fake."Gina and the others nodded repeatedly. "Exactly. Mr. Larkin is right."They had not the faintest idea about antique or art, but if Zeb said so, then it must be."Just throw it away already, Grandpa," Peter then told Henry. "Why would you keep a bootleg?"Henry quickly put it away and sna

Zeb, Gina, Cindy, and Peter all laughed at Randall's words.Helen just happened to be done greeting guests when she came and heard them laughing. "What's going on? Why's everyone laughing?"Peter quickly told her, "Frank brought a present, saying it's Alfie Bronx's work… but Mr. Young called it a fake without even needing a look!"Helen frowned. "Why?""Because the only real privately owned Bronx piece is hanging in Gerald Simmons' office!" Cindy laughed, clutching her stomach and almost falling over.Helen glanced at Frank and sighed.She could understand him well enough to tell that he just wanted to show off in front of her grandfather and did not expect to be exposed."That's enough. It's just a painting—Frank was probably tricked too, right Frank?" she asked, trying to bail Frank out from the awkwardness.Frank did not play along, however. "Randall Young never even looked at it. How would he know if it's a fake? Also, I got it from Gerald Simmons' office.""Haha! You real

"Oh, it's not a problem," Gina assured Aron before wheeling on Frank. "Go on, bring your painting.""What are you doing, Mom?!" Helen snapped with a scowl—if the real Bronx was being hung in Gerald Simmons' office, Aron would definitely recognize it!Did she really have to go that far just to humiliate Frank?Gina giggled smugly in turn. "Don't you dare side with him—he's the one who kept insisting that it's real. Let's see what he's going to say now!""What…" Helen bit her lip, speechless.On the other hand, Frank remained impassive as he passed the painting to Aron, who was stunned when he saw it.Gina hurried up to him, asking, "So? Is it real?"Zeb, Cindy and Peter were staring at Frank in turn, waiting for him to embarrass himself!Aron inhaled deeply and said, "Of course it's real.""See—wait, what's that?" Gina froze before she could start mocking Frank. "Are you sure, Mr. Lynch?""Of course," Aron nodded repeatedly. "I've seen this painting every day for so long, sinc
The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 377
Zeb appeared totally embarrassed—he was well aware that he did not know Gerald at all, let alone be recognized by his secretary!"Please don't shout, Mrs. Lane!" He pulled Gina to make her sit.Gina, however, beamed at him. "Oh, why are you being so humble, Zeb?"Aron turned toward Zeb just then and muttered in confusion, "But I've never heard of him.""What?"Gina, Cindy, Helen, and Peter were dumbfounded, while Gina quickly pressed, "Didn't Mr. Simmons reserve this hall for Mr. Larkin?""You're kidding." Aron snorted before turning to Frank, "Mr. Simmons only decided to make the reservation for Mr. Lawrence. Why else would Mr. Lawrence possess Mr. Simmons' privately owned painting?"Aron himself found out about that just this morning, though he did not ask questions despite his doubts."What?!"Everyone was left dumbfounded again, staring at Frank in shock while Zeb was left humiliated."I'll be going now if there's nothing else," Aron said."Please, Mr. Lynch. At least st
