The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 2268

"Mr. Frankton? Fiona Queen says she would like to talk."

A burly man who stood well over six feet entered just as Alda finished.

It was Higo Soldi, a member of the Cerulean Summit Legion who had the look of a man who was not to be messed with. Like the rest of them, he was now a loyal follower after being told about Frank's feats.

In fact, 99% of the Cerulean Summit Legion had chosen to stay. Even if they were not impressed, they stayed because following him offered better prospects.

As such, Frank called in some of them, granting them the power of the Shagan spiritron vein to be used when it mattered.

Like now, when they had to restrain Fiona.

"Alright, got it," Frank replied and soon returned to Jaric Mansion.

Fiona was certainly a lot less determined now, looking fatigued and scowling after being confined for a day. "I give up. Just let me go."

"Let you go? You didn't tell me who sent you!" Frank snapped.

"I-I don't know his name," Fiona stammered. "But I can take you to him. He should still be there!"

"You're going to take me to him? Just like that?" Frank asked, perplexed.

"I mean, we're not really fighting, are we?" Fiona shrugged. "You didn't force me to pay my debts, so I have no reason to go down singing… just let me go and pay me off, and I promise that I'll cooperate."

Frank thought about it and nodded. "Let's hope for your sake that you're telling the truth."

With that, he untied her and took her out to his Rolls-Royce.

Her eyes lit up even as she caressed the sunroof. "People like me won't ever afford a car like that, huh?"

"Nothing's impossible as long as you set your mind to it." Frank snorted. "Jada Turin herself lacked connections, but she became a strong, independent woman anyway."

Fiona sighed. "She can overcome anything to learn, but I can't. By the way, how did you get Pax to willingly surrender everything to you?"

The door directly in front of him opened at his words, and a geezer strode out, studying Frank.

"So you're the man chosen by the Shagan spiritron vein… Impressive!" He smiled. "Such a shame that you didn't anticipate me getting prepared. I knew that woman wasn't trustworthy and buried bombs in the dirt! Let's die together now!"

"No!!!" Fiona screamed, while the geezer whipped out a remote, pressed the button, and closed his eyes.

However, nothing happened.

Fiona kept screaming until she realized that too and turned toward Frank. "What's going on?"

"Why should I tell you?" Frank retorted.

Fiona rolled her eyes at him but hung her head in silence.

On the other hand, the geezer was staring at Frank's ring. "W-Was that the power of the spiritron vein?"
