The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 2478

After Moxxi followed Jada into the kitchen, pots of stewed mushroom with chicken and goose were served, with plates of salads and coleslaws.

Everyone was famished in the first place and started wolfing it down since Jada's cooking was great.

Lara Gold was even munching as she praised, "Forgive me for being frank, Mr. Frankton, but this is amazing! Ms. Turin cooks even better than Sadie Godot's stupid brother!"

Frank chuckled. "She's as much a warrior in the kitchen as she is at work. A rare breed—any man would be lucky to marry her."

Jada rolled her eyes but said nothing, though Alda teased, "What if it's you, Mr. Frankton?"

"Ms. Ingram!" Jada snapped as she shot her a glare, blushing.

Alda simply raised a glass of fruit juice at her. "I apologize for my terrible flaw of being too honest. I'll chug this in apology!"

She finished the entire glass at once, leaving Jada speechless.

While Alda could be quiet, she really knew how to leave a person stumped.

Still, while the atmosphere in the dining room was cheerful and lively, someone suddenly entered.

It was the Cerulean Summit Legionnaire who was sent to protect Toto, who reported, "Mr. Frankton, Ms. Turin, your hunch was right—someone did come after Toto. We captured them since they kept pestering Toto even after he refused their offers. What should we do with them?"

Jada was annoyed. "Can't you see that Mr. Frankton is eating? Have you learned nothing from me? Wait until he's finished, no matter how important it is."

Frank smiled in wry amusement. "Don't be hard on them now. Just bring those perps in—I'll interrogate them myself."

"Yes, sir!" The Cerulean Summit Legionnaire nodded and left.

"Oh, who could this be?" Moxxi scoffed. "If it isn't that bigwig's bodyguards. Where did your egos go? Why were you both beaten up like that?"

The two bodyguards snorted but said nothing.

"Oh, still refusing to cooperate at this point? Should I say that you're brave, or just blind?"

Moxxi had no respect for the geezer in the first place. And seeing how unhelpful the two bodyguards were, she rubbed her knuckles, ready to fight.

"You'd best be sure about this!" one of them warned. "You're all dead people walking if you mess with him!"

"What?!" Moxxi could hardly believe her ears.
