The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 451 - チャプター 460

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!

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."

Jade urged in response, "What are you waiting for, Helen? Get going already—or do you think you can take responsibility if anything happens to my daughter?""Yes, yes, yes," Gina replied and quickly told Helen, "Go on—head over to Frank Lawrence's house and tell him to hand over the drakeroot."Helen shrugged exasperatedly. "Mom, why would he ever give us the drakeroot for nothing?"Gina could not care less. "Oh, he used to listen to everything you say, didn't he? Just be nice to him, and he'd be wagging his tail as he gives it to you without hesitation."Seeing that Helen was still reluctant, she added, "Look, this is a matter of life and death—you have to do your best here!""Fine." Helen sighed exasperatedly at her mother's stubbornness and hailed a cab alone to go to Frank.-At Skywater Bay, Frank had refined the drakeroot and other ingredients into a pill.After feeding it to Frida, he taught her a cultivation technique to help stabilize her condition."How long would it

Frank nodded to confirm Vicky's words. "I already refined the drakeroot when your mom called me earlier."Helen was disappointed, but there was nothing she could do either—there was no way to revert the pill back to the drakeroot.Still, she simply resigned herself.She was not particularly disappointed anyway since the drakeroot was not all that important."Oh… Never mind, then." She flashed a pained smile. Frank stared at her for a moment in thought for a long while and eventually said, "What's your cousin's condition? I could take a look.""Oh, forget it. None of the Southstream's healers could help…" Helen trailed off and quickly corrected herself when she realized she had misspoken. "I mean, it's very serious, and most of the healers insisted she needs the drakeroot."Frank smiled. "I treated your grandfather when he was on death's door too. I should at least try."Helen looked up right then, her heart welling up with emotion.There was no harm in letting Frank try even

"Exactly! We're above all else," Jade bellowed as she pointed Frank in the nose. "I'm giving you a chance to atone right now—apologize to my daughter!"Jade was absolutely confident in her family's authority and was ready to watch Frank apologize like a worm…However, she underestimated Frank, as he simply sneered. "Apologize to you? Dream on. Hell, even having me treat your daughter is delusional.""Frank Lawrence! How dare you disrespect my family!" Jade was livid."Forget it, Mom," Luna snapped in her bed. "We don't need him. There has to be a healer who can get me better anyway."On the other hand, Hali quickly reasoned, "Please, Mrs. Lane. Just calm down for a moment—you have a miracle worker right here, and your daughter will get well right away. And you're all family, right? Why get all upset over some little argument?""Shut up!" Hali's advice only left Jade further incensed. "Family?! With him?! He isn't family—I won't let him near my house even if he offered to clean
