The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 1908

And after becoming the Hoxton commissioner, Phoenix's fiance would in turn repay the favor by offering Cloudnine Sect conveniences and goodies.

To be honest, Phoenix and her fiance's relationship was built entirely on Cloudnine Sect's interest, with no personal sentiment involved.

And yet, today, Phoenix felt her heart fluttering for the first time—and not just because of Frank's position or for the fact that he had fought to give Phoenix a Martial Alliance's recommendation for her sake…

He was just so mysterious and enthralling that she felt an urgent need to find out what he was really like and what he wanted.

Moreover, Frank was most likely interested in her, what with how nice he was to her.

As Phoenix's heart pounded, she was afraid to look him in the eye.

"Does she have a few screws loose?"

On the other hand, Frank was smiling but also wondering if Phoenix was just being strange.

She was pensive one moment and peeking at him the next, so he really had no idea what she wanted.

But either way, his task was complete. "In that case, you don't have to queue with the other martial artists now, Ms. Ardron."

"What? Oh, right." Phoenix appeared restless as she stared at Frank's smile.

Frank then continued, "I hope you won't be as rude as you were today. Every martial artist starts out as a vigor wielder, after all."

"Yeah… I know," Phoenix replied, hanging her head and docile, leaving the crowd watching pursing their lips.

Was she really that… tame?

"Alright, then I shall excuse myself." Frank waved at Phoenix as the crowd cleared a path for him to leave.

Phoenix watched him leave in shock—and here she was waiting for him to trade contact methods!
