The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 998

Just as the Soranos' executives and retainers almost came to an agreement, an authoritative voice barked from the doorway, "What's going on here?!"

Silence quickly ensued, with most of them keeping their heads down in reverence while an old man shuffled inside.

His back was hunched and his visage ancient, but he carried himself with authority.

He stood in the middle of the crowd, his eyes piercing studying everyone.

It was none other than Zico Sorano, the head of the Sorano family, himself.

"Brother." Tony approached him and told him everything that had happened, keeping his narrative neutral as he reported the facts of what he had seen.

"Hmm… an Ascendant rank named Frank Lawrence?"

Zico was focused on Frank, barely paying the writhing Willy any attention as he thought to himself in silence.

Soon, he smiled enigmatically, with even the wrinkles on his face smoothening.

"Well, that's decided." He chuckled. "Come tomorrow and send an escort with Willy to apologize to Frank Lawrence. Remember to be solemn and sincere—do your best not to upset the boy."

"Why, Father?!"

Emilio was the first to protest, springing to his feet and bellowing, "He hurt your grandson, and in our own house! It's a slap in our collective faces, and we're supposed to apologize?! We'd be making ourselves a laughing stock!"

"That boy… the only son of the Lord of the Southern Woods?"

"Mystic Sky Sect… Donn Lawrence…"

The key members and retainers of the Sorano family needed minutes to digest the bombshell.

They certainly had no idea how Zico knew, but his judgment was always on the money.

Zico then sighed, clearly wary of the Lord of the Southern Woods. "I'm sure we all know how protective that man is toward his son. If we so much as lay a finger on the kid, he'd be on our doorstep the day after."

"Then, what? Are we supposed to just take this lying down?" Emilio exclaimed in grief and frustration.
