The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage

Chapter 2005





Juno purred, "Oh, color me surprised."

"Spare me."

Frank naturally saw through her pretense and calmly said, "I'm not an ingrate. I'll always keep in mind the times you helped me, and I'll definitely fulfill my promise as well."

Despite Frank's solemn words, Juno did not lose her composure again and instead giggled. "In that case, are you willing to move to Talnam and be anointed a prince?"

Frank was only mystified. "A prince? What are you on about now?"

"Hehe."

Juno merely giggled and said nothing, while Frank turned back to the note in the dart, unfurling it.

[Josh Dellon, the commissioner of Hoxton, is secretly friends with Stanley Durban.]

"Hmm...?"

Frank did a double take before turning to see Juno still smiling at him.

He once again noted inwardly how scary the woman was.

Not only had she anticipated that he would come to her, but she had even gathered information and found the person who was after Frank, even sending her people to investigate.

The sheer efficiency and foresight was definitely why the woman stood at the top of Blackrank, and Frank was naturally wary toward her.

It would be fine if she was on his side, but if she was not...

Frank breathed a long sigh-he really would not like that.

"So?" Juno asked, taking the note from Frank and flashing a bewitching smile. "Hehehe. It's just as I'd predicted."

Turning back to Frank, she asked, "So you know who it is now? Women really are trouble, aren't they?"

"Quite." Frank nodded in agreement, staring fixedly at Juno.

Juno appeared taken aback and pouted. "What's that supposed to mean? Are you talking about me? You still don't trust me after everything I've done for you?"

"I trust you." Frank nodded, thinking inwardly that he did not believe that anything ever came for free.

Rising to his feet, he started to leave. "Well, I'll be going since I've confirmed the details."

"Going? Where to?"

Juno did a double take and soon

"That's true."

Frank nodded before continuing calmly, "But can't just sit and watch

Alliance harass Helen and the others. Now that I know the truth, I shall return and prove my innocence."

Juno, however, shook her head repeatedly. "You'd be discovered and mobbed as soon as you return. Do you think that the martial artists who want to claim your bounty would calm down and listen to you defending yourself?"

"No."

Frank shrugged, still calm as ever. "The Martial Tournament is still going on. And Phoenix Ardron has the Martial Alliance's recommendation, so she'll be in Zamri..."

Juno nodded and smiled. "So you're going to take Phoenix hostage to threaten Josh?"

"Exactly."

Frank snapped his fingers. "That would keep Josh on his toes while I look for the real culprit who murdered Geon."
