The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 698

Mark chuckled, gazing proudly upon the farm that stretched on endlessly. "Chickens, ducks, fishes, geese, pigs, and goats, and an enormous pond… These are all my treasures, and I've been watching over them for years."

"And losing a whole lot of money because of it," Fleur added tactlessly.

Mark's face fell right then, but Gavin hurried over to clear the air with a smile. "Helen, my father shed blood and sweat for this farm. I'd like him to enjoy some peace in the knowledge that it's passed on to safe hands."

"Exactly," Mark said, his expression easing as he sighed. "My health's been declining ever since my brother's passing, and I feel too weary to keep managing the farm."

"What are you saying, sir? You're the picture of good health, right?" Helen exclaimed, turning toward Frank.

"Yeah," Frank frowned ever so slightly but nodded in silence for Helen's sake.

Gavin noticed Frank's hesitation, however, and made a mental note.

On the other hand, Mark was chuckling and holding up his palms cheerfully. "Helen, I won't waste your time. We're family, and if you want this farm, you just have to pay me the same price I bought it—a hundred million dollars."

"What?!"

Fleur was thumping her can then. "Jade is right. Don't you remember asking Clark—your own son—for five billion dollars? Doesn't your conscience hurt as a father?"

Luna chimed in as well, "Yeah, Grandpa. You're being unfair."

"Shut up!" Mark snapped at everyone as he came to his senses. "Those two animals will demolish my farm to build a factory by the river—a pollution-heavy material processing factory, I might add! All the hard work and money I spent on this farm over the years would just go up in smoke! I'm now passing it to Helen so that she'll keep the farm going instead of selling off the land for some rotten factory!"

"Helen!" he barked, wheeling on Helen with red eyes. "Tell me, what are you going to use this land for?"
