The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 138

Chapter 138 

Greg frowned, 

He only got close to Gina for her money he would puke if he had to get intimate with a fortyish woman every day! 

Seeing her beloved frown, Gina asked, “What’s wrong, Greg? You don’t want to?” 

“Uh… No way!” Greg, promptly changed his reaction and chuckled, “I’ve been thinking about it already, but now’s not the time.” 

“Why not?” 

“We’re still not married, even if we are single now. I think we should do it properly, so that all of Riverton knows.” 

Gina was beaming at that, purring shyly, “Oh, we’re both adults. Why bother with child’s play?

“Don’t say that,” Greg said righteously. “Marriage is a big deal, or people would talk if I keep coming here.” 

Gina actually thought that made sense and was emotional that Greg would care so much about her. 

She was certainly right about him! 

Greg sighed lengthily just then. “Also, I’ve been busy with work. Let’s get married once I’ve gotten that out of the way.” 

“Yeah, work is important,” Gina agreed. “I’ll tell Helen to transfer you the money as soon as possible.” 

Greg was none too pleased. 

That was when the butler knocked on the door. 

“What is it?!” Gina shouted as both she and Greg panicked, scrambling to get dressed. 

“Mrs. Lane, your son has just returned.” 

“Peter? Why?” Gina did a double take–was Peter not supposed to be at work? Why did he come back so soon? 

“I think someone beat him up,” the butler said. “Why don’t you take a look?” 

“What?!” Gina was furious as soon as she heard that and rushed downstairs once she got dressed. 

Greg hurried after her to find Peter lying on the drawing room couch, whimpering. 

“Mom…” He sobbed. 

Gina ran toward him, her heart aching when she saw his face battered and bruised. “Oh, Peter … What happened? Weren’t you starting work at Grande Corp?” 

“Vicky fired me, Mom!” Peter cried indignantly.

“What?” Dumbfounded, Gina turned towards Greg. “Didn’t Ms. Turnbull agree to give Peter a job?” 

“Y–Yeah,” Greg replied. “We had an agreement. Why would she fire you?” 

“It’s all because of Frank!” Peter sobbed. “I ran into him in the lobby, and he told me to leave! He must have badmouthed me in front of Vicky… I mean, we did have a disagreement before, but I already apologized! But she told Frank to beat me up!” 

Incensed, Gina smacked the table as she growled, “That woman’s really too much!” 

On the other hand, Greg narrowed his eyes. “What did Frank say? How did he make Ms. Turnbull get so upset with you?” 

“I don’t know! Frank entered her office, so I don’t know what he said–but once she came out, she started snapping at me.” Peter sobbed and pointed at his nose. “Frank even broke my nose. 

“It’s alright, Peter. Don’t cry–I’ll get the doctor for you.” Gina promptly hugged him, comforting him. 

Peter, however, was huffing indignantly. “You have to help me, Mom.”
