The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage



More importantly, these rich and important figures of Zamri rarely took notice of what was happening in the scene of martial artists.

They really did not care about any of that, instead focusing all their attention on their businesses and influence, as well as Draconia's political scene. From their point of view, the so-called martial artists were no more than thugs who existed just beyond the jurisdiction of the authorities.

If only one of them tried to find out more about the scene of martial artists, their perception of Frank would not have been this shallow.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

Either way, the presence of so many armed soldiers here was much more shocking to them than what they thought martial artists could do.

After all, this meant that Frank was no mere thug he was a thug with ties to the government!

Even these Zamri self-styled aristocrats no longer dared to belittle him now!

"F-Frank Lawrence, d-don't do anything... you... I didn't know you knew Governor Quill. I..."

Meanwhile, Geon was barely coherent.

His legs were shaking violently even as he stood before Frank, threatening to buckle and kneel before Frank.

"Well, it's just the two of us here now."

Frank reclined against his chair as he asked quietly, "Tell me, who put you up to this?"

Geon's whole body cringed at the question.

However, after hesitating for a long while, he looked up with a smile that could well be a sobbing face, stammering, "N-No one did..."

"I'm really lacking in patience right now. Tell me who it is, and you'll live a little longer. If you don't..."

Frank trailed off, his eyes flashing coldly right then. "I'll make you wish you were dead. No, you'd be begging me to kill you."

"Eh?"

Frank's threat left Geon turning pale.

He gulped, sneaking a glance at Carlo's severed arm and the pool of blood around it.

Somehow, he did not doubt Frank's threat at all.

After hesitating for a while, he clenched his teeth and admitted, "I-It was the Lionhearts!"

"So it really was them."

Frank nodded he was not

particularly surprised by Geon's confession. "And? Was it Titus? Or was it Simon, the head of the family, himself? Or was it perhaps someone else entirely?""

"I-I don't know..."

Geon shook his head blankly, clearly troubled. "They only sent a contact every time, even when they were introducing me to Carlo Group." Seeing that Geon was really spilling the beans, Frank pressed on. "And what's their goal? Just to take me down?"

"No... I think they want something called the spiritron vein?"

Geon shrugged in confusion. "I don't know what that is, but it seems that they're planning to distract you so that they could take it from you...

"My spiritron vein? Kat Yego?"

Frank realized with a start.

The Lionhearts already knew that there was a spiritron vein in Kat's body? How could they have known?

Still, just as various expressions

et

alternated over Frank's face, Geon asked fentatively, "By the way, Mr. Lawrence... What's your connection to Governor Quill?"

"Hmm?"

Frank frowned slightly and snorted coolly when he saw Geon's fawning smile. "Don't ask what you don't need to know."

"Oh, yes, yes, yes..." Geon nodded repeatedly, wiping the sweat off his brow.
