The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 2040

"Two treasures?"

Vicky did a double take, but she soon remembered.

There were indeed two things that Frank had managed to snatch out of Titus Lioheart's possession—the first being the Turnbull family's spiritron vein, and the second being the Celestial Dew, which Titus had intended to use as bait.

Both were worth a king's ransom and ultimately fell into Frank's possession.

While the guests present had no idea what Stanley was talking about, they more or less understood that Stanley was a close friend of the Lionhearts.

And after a moment's silence, Vicky looked up with a twinkle in her eye. "I only have one, and I'm able to return it… But I don't know about the other, because Frank has it."

"Really? Just one?"

Stanley raised a brow. "How insincere of you, Ms. Turnbull. Forgive me, but I won't be able to stay my hand…"

"Wait!"

Vicky quickly added, "Frank would've been carrying it with him. Can't we come to an agreement if I recover it now?"

Stanley remained silent for a moment, narrowing his eyes.

Still, he soon relaxed and smiled. "Sure."

Vicky nodded. "In that case, give us some time. We'll find it right away."

"Heh. But that won't do."

"Stop, Vicky," Helen suddenly strode up, frowning at her. "I don't want to owe you anything."

"Hah! What do you mean, owe? Your company is as good as mine."

Helen could not quite understand what she was saying and eventually signed softly. "Frank is—"

"Don't worry." Vicky cut her short, grinning. "My boy isn't going to die that easily. And I refuse to be that pessimistic even if you are!"

While Helen shook her head and flashed a begrudging smile, their reactions made evident their personalities.

One valued sentiment over rationality, while rationality was the chief priority in the other's head.
