Frank nodded and changed into another jacket before getting into Vicky's car.The Fieldens were actually not a particularly important family. Paul Fielden, the family head, was a venture capitalist. His family had fallen on hard times and their numbers were dwindling, but they retained many treasures from their more illustrious predecessors. The drakeroot was naturally one of them.Vicky, who had partnered with him before, rode shotgun to call Paul ahead of time. "Hello, Mr. Fielden? It's Vicky." She laughed as she made small talk with Paul before getting to the point. "So, I was wondering if you're at home? I would like to visit today."Paul was absolutely stunned on the other end.The Turnbulls had certainly been making waves in Riverton recently, and their heiress was actually making time to visit him? Though he had a hunch that Vicky wanted something, he had no reason to refuse.After some thought, he said, "Of course you're welcome to visit, Ms. Turnbull. My wife is hom

Frank frowned—was Sylvia not being too impolite here?Beside him, Vicky was furious. "What the hell is wrong with her? Isn't she disrespecting us too much here?"Frank sighed lengthily, but there was nothing he could do either.They continued waiting outside the door, and it was fortunate that Paul soon returned. He alighted, wearing a suit, recognizing Vicky right away and smiling as he greeted her, "Long time no see, Ms. Turnbull. I'm so glad that you'd spare time to visit my humble home.""You're exaggerating." Vicky smiled.Paul then noticed Frank and asked in curiosity, "And this gentleman would be…?""Frank Lawrence," Vicky quickly said. "He's a consultant and shareholder to my company, Grande Pharma."Paul was actually surprised.Still, when they were partners before Vicky fell sick, he had grown to acknowledge her abilities. Moreover, any person with her seal of approval was definitely someone special."Pleased to meet you, Mr. Lawrence," he said with a nod."Like

Both Frank and Vicky could tell that Paul was hesitating but not unwilling to sell the drakeroot—it was Sylvia's prompt refusal that surprised them."Mrs. Fielden, we didn't come demanding it for free," Vicky quickly said. "Just mention a price, and we will pay.""No," Sylvia refused again. "Doesn't matter how much you're paying—we're not selling."She then turned to her husband. "Paul, my cousin needs that drakeroot. Didn't you agree to give it to him?"Paul nodded. "I did, but Ms. Turnbull needs it too… How about splitting it in half?"He loved his wife to bits, and would basically agree to anything she asked for. But with Vicky making a bid for the drakeroot as well, he was in a dilemma since he did not want to offend either party.Sylvia shook her head repeatedly. "That won't do—the drakeroot is a hundred years old, and it's not perfectly preserved in the first place. Stanley needs the entire herb."Vicky became flustered, since Paul was obviously a slave to his wife, and

Since Paul was insistent, Paul braced himself and answered, "As in, a sexually-transmitted disease. It's caused by irregular sex partners."As Paul quickly understood what Frank was talking about, he glowered right then.It would have certainly been amazing if he had irregular sex partners, but his virility had been dropping over recent years—he rarely did it with Sylvia these days as well!So how did his wife catch an STD?That was when Sylvia sprang to her feet, her face contorting in rage as she glared at Frank, "Don't you give that nonsense! I don't have an STD!"Then, turning toward Paul, she cried urgently, "Please, darling. You shouldn't listen to him. This is slander!""Please calm down, Mrs. Fielden," Frank said firmly just then. "As a healer, I embody the ideals of one and would never mention anything lightly in case of a mistake. Moreover, I've seen that your cousin has the same issue—is that why you wanted the drakeroot? I'm sorry, but the drakeroot wouldn't work on e

Vicky was listening keenly from the couch, not expecting to run into such intriguing drama when she woke up today.On the other hand, Sylvia could not care less about the pain on her cheek and sprang to her feet as she screamed, "You bastard! You're lying!"Paul was frowning in turn. "What did you say? She was taking dance lessons from you?""Yes." Stanley nodded. "Look, I'm not even her cousin—she told me to say that so that it's easier for us to hook up, even staying in your house…"He certainly had enough of Sylvia, which was why he frequented seedy joints in the night to let loose.He just did not expect to contract an STD, and now that he was exposed, his plan to use the Fieldens' drakeroot to cure himself went south too.Still, he did not hesitate to confess everything since he had already saved enough money—the only thing he must do now was stay alive.Paul could almost black out from sheer fury—never could he have known that his wife was cheating on him in his own house!

In the end, there were just too many quack doctors and swindlers. Meeting such an extraordinary healer like Frank was a rarity, and Paul would like to get better as soon as he could.Vicky listened to both men awkwardly for a long while and eventually said, "Mr. Fielden, about the drakeroot…"Paul remembered with a start and quickly said, "Oh, I really would have forgotten if you didn't remind me. Just wait a moment—I'll get it right now."He hurried to his house's basement and soon returned with the drakeroot.Frank took a moment to verify it before nodding at Vicky.Vicky then turned toward Paul. "So how much would you like for the drakeroot, Mr. Fielden?"Paul smiled. "What are you saying, Ms. Turnbull? That slut would still have kept me in the dark if not for Mr. Lawrence here. Just consider it my gift.""In that case, thank you very much." Vicky nodded, not shying from taking such generosity. "If you could make time, do come by Grande Pharma—we might be partners again."

Helen was not surprised by Paul's refusal.The drakeroot was his family heirloom—he would never sell it so easily.However, Jade was immediately scowling. "You wretch! You should be honored that we want your drakeroot! You should be on your best behavior now that we need you. When I return and inform Mark Lane, he might help you soar to riches. But if anything happens to my daughter because you refused us, you and your family will be going down!"Her words were a barenaked threat.Paul was clenching his fist in fury but had to restrain himself at the thought of the Northstream Lanes.They were a powerful family and basically owned Northstream, and Paul would not be able to stand against them alone.Fortunately, the drakeroot was no longer in his hands.At the same time, Helen quickly explained, "My aunt doesn't mean anything bad, Mr. Fielden. He's just worried about her daughter, whose condition can only be treated with the drakeroot. Please let us have it for my sister's sake."

Gina rolled her eyes, completely ignoring Helen as she whipped out her phone and called Frank.-Frank had just returned to Skywater Bay and was in his basement preparing to make a pill for Frida Blue to restore her meridians.He did a double take when Gina called him out of the blue, but he answered anyway. "Where are you right now, Frank?" she demanded.Hearing her disrespectful tone, he replied noncommittally, "How is that any of your business?"Gina cut to the chase right then. "You bought the Fieldens' drakeroot, didn't you?""So what?""Where is it? Bring it to me—the Lanes of Southstream need it urgently."Frank frowned.He had heard of the Lanes of Southstream back when she married Helen and knew that they were as rich as they were powerful.Naturally, they could not care less about Helen's side of the family, or they would not have to lead such modest lives in comparison.And now, Gina had actually called him just because the other family wanted the drakeroot… She

Frank snorted. "Alright, I'm hanging up. I'm getting started over here soon.""Yeah. Good luck," Jouri replied.Hanging up, Frank looked up at the waterfall overhead, and then at Skyler, who was standing beside him. "So? Is it time yet?""Almost… Now!" Skyler's eyes were glowing even as she stared at her watch."Alright."Frank looked up just as the skies abruptly darkened. "Ah, there it is—the eclipse."The sun seemed to disappear, and the world was suddenly shrouded in darknesses.And beside him, a stone door imbued with the power of the spiritron vein also rumbled as it parted."Got it!" Frank rushed inside without another word as soon as he saw it."Hmph. I'm surprised that you could reach this place." A cold, wrathful voice resounded inside even before Frank got a hold of his surroundings.Looking up, Frank found a youth in a black cossack and sporting grey-white hair, standing upon a cliff as he looked down on him.Frank chuckled. "Hehe. Like I said, I've come to kill

Frank narrowed his eyes. "Is that so?'Crane shrugged. "I don't mind giving it to you straight—members of Torrent are actually… Ahem. A part of Torrent himself."Frank paused. "What's that supposed to mean?""You don't get it, do you?" Crane grinned. "Then let me put it to you this way—every member is a clone of Torrent.""A clone?" Frank gasped in realization."Yes," Crane nodded. "That's why I believe that challenging Crane is just suicide. You have no idea how powerful he is—only death awaits you down that path."Frank smirked. "Oh, but I don't think so."Crane rolled his eyes. "Fine, whatever—now listen closely. You will find Torrent in the Mystic Trail, but you would only find that place when the sun and moon coincide, and the entrance is beneath the waterfall south of Horton."As he finished, he snorted coldly. "I have no idea if you can actually do it, but I'm hoping you do kill him… Heh. I'm getting tired of being stuck under his control for so long."Then, waving off

Frank abruptly turned, immediately noticing one of the Cranes crouching, ready to spring forward and blindside him."Got you!" He laughed."Hah! You fell for it!"Just as Frank swung a punch to pulverize that Crane, he suddenly burst into pus that splashed at Frank's face."Damn it!" Frank took a step back, surprised that the clone's presence was identical to the real Crane, and a trap on top of that!"Die!"The Cranes around him each whipped out a dagger, all of them stabbing at Frank at the same time."Get off!" Frank bellowed, unleashing a shockwave that sent all the Cranes flying across all directions."Frank! Above you!" Skyler suddenly shrieked."Yes! I'm right here!" A strange laughter sounded above Frank just as he wiped the pus off his face.Crane was suddenly directly above him, launching an aerial kick straight at Frank's head, and Frank had no time to dodge!"Die!" Crane's smile curled into a twisted angle as he saw that too.He was very confident with this kick
The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 2909
"Disgusting…" Skyler murmured through her hand.Despite being skinned and scalped, the women were all still alive and singing to the music that was playing despite their anguish."Talk about a terrible fetish."Frank was scowling too—why were all the members of Torrent such sick deviants? It seemed like his plan to wipe them out was absolutely correct!"So, you killed my clone?"The lanky man on the couch slowly turned to level his bloodshot eyes at Frank.His lips were wet with bed as they curled upward into an eerie smile."Clone?" Frank narrowed his eyes."Hehe. It's a sage art."Crane shrugged as he stood up and wiped the blood off his lips. "It's only natural that you don't understand… Still, you deserve praise. If you can kill my clone, that means you're not just slightly stronger than Ghost."Naturally, the man was none other than the real Crane.Still, as Skyler studied him from a corner, even she could notice the strange twitch of his fingers, and his veins were pro

Even as Crane ran, he was looking over his shoulder, his heart pounding. "No… I won't win in a one-on-one!"No, as long as I get back to my real body… we can do this together!" He frowned, having seen how Frank sliced off the pinkies of those hood rats. It hence quickly dawned on him that Frank was not just slightly stronger than Ghost, as Torrent had put it!"Almost there!" He gasped when he saw the signboard of Pegasus Showtown in the distance. "As long as I get there and rendezvous with my real body, that brat will lose—"That was when he turned and saw that a shadow had caught up with impossible speed."What?!" Crane's eyes almost popped out in bewilderment. "What speed is that?! Are you kidding—"Even as he spotted the shadow, the shadow turned into a youth with an impassive visage.His fist outstretched, he was clearly punching toward Crane's forehead!"Argh…"Even as Crane looked on, the youth's punch slowed down by tenfold, but his fist kept closing in.Then, whe

Seeing Skyler sigh, the tattooed thug presumed that his extortion worked.He strode up, grabbing Frank's shoulder. "No one's gonna help you, boy. Pay up, or you're not leaving.""Exactly! You're not getting away!" the crowd of hood rats hollered. "Last chance."Frank's eyes were cold and fixed on Dani, however. "Are you going to intervene? If you do, you can keep that check. If you don't…""Ugh. Fuck off! I don't care!" Dani spat, her expression smug as she folded her arms before her chest. "Who do you think you are to threaten me?!""Exactly! Pay up, and you can leave!""Yeah! Ten grand, at least!""You probably don't know my boss Wyvern, but when he's here, you won't get away with just ten grand!"Even as the crowd closed in, Frank shook his head. "Well, you had your chance. Don't blame me for what happens next.""You're giving us a chance?! Hah! Who—argh!"Even before Dani could finish gloating, Frank was suddenly in front of her, grabbing her viciously by the wrist."Arg

"Five grand?! Did you hear that?! He just threw five grand!""Must be a rich kid coming here for a secret rendezvous, out of prying eyes? Those types are the easiest mark!""Fuck! And Dani got one of us… It hurts me more than losing at the races!"Frank could hear the buzz around him but ignored it as he strode past the men flanking him and headed toward the street that stank of blood."Stop!" A big tattooed man grinned sinisterly as he intercepted Frank.As his buddies encircled Frank as well, Frank snorted—it seemed that they took his reaction for a sign of weakness and thought that he could be cowed.The tattooed man rubbed his chin as he leered at Skyler's voluptuous figure, chuckling. "Look, boy. I'm short on cash, so let me take a loan. I'll pay you back some other day, how about that?"His friend laughed. "Exactly! You just gave Dani five grand, and we won't ask for more… just four, how about that?"Skyler scowled in turn and glanced worriedly at Frank beside her—was he

Frank himself had just stepped out of the nightclub when his eyes narrowed."Blood," he murmured, his nostrils twitching."Blood?"Skyler sniffed the air, puzzled. "I can't smell it.""It's from the opposite street… I smell the blood of over a dozen people.""A dozen?!" Skyler did a double take.He could identify the number of people who were killed?! That was just ridiculous!"Come on, let's take a look."Just as Frank led the way toward the source of the stench, a woman suddenly came up, catching Frank off guard and throwing herself into his arms."Hmmm?" He looked down to see that she had thick makeup, average looks, and a rather pudgy belly."Argh! He touched me!" she pointed at Frank and shrieked even before he realized what was happening."What?!" Skyler was staring at the woman too, mystified."Oh, sister! You just didn't see it!"The woman kept hollering, pointing at Frank's face. "Your boyfriend grabbed my ass! Is that how you teach him manners?!""Teach him ma

Wyvern screamed even as he clutched the stump that was his hand, screaming so shrilly one might mistake his voice as inhuman."Oh, just shut up." The lanky man glowered and launched a kick, reducing Wyvern into puddles of blood and pieces of innards, splattering all around the lobby. "Argh!!!" the devilish lady screamed as she watched the carnage unfolded."Another sound, and you'd end up just like him." The lanky man turned and frowned at her impatiently."Hngh…" The devilish lady promptly clasped a hand over her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes as she trembled."What the hell?!"Outside, Wyvern's lackeys heard the screams and ran inside, looking for him. "Hey, where's Wyvern?!"However, the lobby was too dimly lit for them to notice the blood and guts scattered around the walls, and they only sensed that terrible stench."Hngh…" The devilish lady was too scared to speak, and tears trickled out of her eyes."Fuck!"One of the lackeys strode up and seized the lanky man
