The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 2269

"Exactly. See ya!"

Frank waved, lifting the geezer with a formless power. Then, he slammed him violently against the cavern wall, leaving nothing but a bloody puddle!

Fiona was horrified. "Are you crazy?! Did you have to kill him?"

Frank frowned. "Are you really snapping at me for saving your life?"

"Not really…"

Fiona sighed. "He's a mean bitch, and he deserved it—he killed a lackey just because the lackey rubbed him the wrong way. Shouldn't you question him, though? If he had the balls to mess with you, that means someone had his back. You'd be in more trouble later on if you don't root them out."

Frank ignored her and turned to leave.

Twenty minutes later, Jada was nodding at Frank in his office, realizing with a start after being briefed. "That does explain everything…that geezer was trying to steal the power of the Shagan spiritron vein, but knowing that he wouldn't win against you, he got himself a gang of thugs.

"He then coerced them into starting a protection racket, so that he would only seem to be a thug boss, and no one would suspect someone like him. He just didn't expect his protection racket to run into me. With his secret out, he sent Fiona as bait to lure you out… but it turns out that Fiona doesn't really hate you that much, and she turned on him."

Frank shrugged. "I hope so, but it somehow still feels like everything has gone too smoothly… Keep following Fiona. It's likely he would make a break for it."

"Understood."
