The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 1890

Megan was left shocked by her father's confession too and stared at Alba in disbelief. "Mom told me that Aunt Cara and Uncle Saul tried their best to stop Frank from saving me, but he turned back to save you and Mom before Uncle Saul could kill you, and he even saved my life!

"But you'd ignore everything he did and slander Frank to lie with those scum?! You disappoint me!"

Megan's words were like knives that sliced through Alba's conscience, and all he could do now was to kowtow, unable to say a word.

"I would rather kill every last one of you than let you live! But I will stop crippling your cultivation because of Frank, and don't even think of succeeding me!"

"Y-Yes, Father…" Saul coughed blood even as disappointment clouded his gaze.

"Alba, I would never have punished you if you had stepped up and maintained Frank's innocence… And yet!"

Governor Quill raised his voice as he continued. "Not only did you refuse to do it despite everything Frank had done for you, but you'd slander him for it! So let me train your memory now!"
