The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 1232

Still, Frank could only hope that Gina would turn over a new leaf.

He would not expect Gina to become a saintess, but she could at least stop causing trouble for Helen and leaving her hurt.

Nodding, he sighed exasperatedly. "I will."

"Hmph."

On the other hand, Cindy said nothing, merely snorting with a look of disappointment before turning to leave with Gina.

Peter tried to do the same, but Frank caught him by the back of his collar. "Did I tell you to leave?"

His icy, murderous tone left Peter's expression alternating from surprise to terror, until he finally tried to force a smile. "Bro—"

Frank slapped him across the face even before he could finish, leaving him seeing stars even as he was sent flying and rolling across the floor.

His cheek swelled with deep bruising right then, and he sat up when he came to his senses.

"No, wait… Frank, please don't—"

Still, fear showed in his eyes again as Frank advanced on him and tried to flee, but only for Frank to catch him again.

"You've been out of touch, Peter." Frank grinned. "And here I thought you'd wisened up and left to build something for yourself, but you prove to be the same piece of shit as you've always been."

Frank slapped him again, leaving Peter with a cracked, bleeding lip amid the crisp slap and knocking several of his teeth out.

He had knowledge of the factions that ruled Zamri, having been in the city for a while.

"The Three Bears of Zamri are the major players in the city," he told Frank quietly. "One of them is Zomber Group's Larry Jameson, who is well-connected and has the Blood Wolves' support, meaning that he controls both legitimate and illegitimate businesses."

"On the surface, Zomber Group owns establishments like hotels and karaoke bars, but they also control illegal casinos and other illicit businesses, including contract killing! You'd be walking straight into a literal wolves' den!"

Clearly, the security guard only knew about Zomber Group and tried to dissuade Frank because he had no idea what Frank was capable of.

"Hmm… The Blood Wolves, you say?"

Frank rubbed his chin, realizing with a start and kicking Peter on the rump right then. "Move. Take me to Kit Jameson right away."
