THE GIRLBOSS BEGS FOR REMARRIAGE - Season 7 Episode 40

And now, as Jade heard Frank mention his wager with Jon, she knew there was no escape.

She turned toward Gavin for the sake of her son, crying out, “Please! You have to do something!”

If Jon got killed eating dog poo, their family would become the laughing stock of all of Southstream!

Gavin did not want his youngest son to die so miserably too and turned to level an earnest, pleading look at Frank. “Please, Mr. Lawrence. My son has always been too mischievous—he’s just joking to liven things up. Please be understanding…”

Then, he slapped Jon in front of everyone for his stupidity, snapping, “Apologize to Mr. Lawrence already!”

The slap actually brought Jon to his senses, and he quickly kowtowed to Frank. “I was just joking, Mr. Lawrence! I didn’t mean to insult you.”

“Really?” Frank turned toward Luna, who was on her knees and trembling. “Someone told me you were a man of sheer will but would like to see me go through with your wager?”

Luna turned pale from Frank’s stare and hung her head in silence.

Jade gritted her teeth audibly and hit her head audibly on the floor as she kowtowed twice. “I know things were unpleasant between us before, Mr. Lawrence. I even spat on your goodwill and doubted that you saved Luna. Please just spare my children. I’ll suffer your wrath in their stead!”

“Mom!” Both Luna and Jade cried, tears welling up in their eyes.

Helen frowned at that and nudged Frank.

“Alright,” he said. “I’m not that petty—consider all debts paid. However!”

The Southstream Lanes were all breathing a sigh of relief when Frank said all debts were paid, and their heart skipped a beat when his tone changed sharply.

“Henry Lane has always wanted to return here, where he belonged,” Frank said. “I hope you’ll send your people to bring his casket back here to be reburied.”

Then, turning to Jade, Frank said, “Meanwhile, you and your daughter shall return to Northstream and apologize to the woman you knocked down in your car and pay her threefold the damages.”

The Southstream Lanes kept kneeling, listening quietly as Frank listed his demands.

Then, as Frank stayed silent for a long while, Gavin looked up in surprise. “Is that all? Isn’t there anything else?”

Frank shook his head. “Nope.

“Don’t you want some… compensation?” Roth suggested, fearful that Frank would change his mind given his misgivings toward Roth’s family. “Our family is one of the Four Families of Northstream, so we do have some money even if we’re not particularly influential.”

Frank was left speechless—why did everyone insist on giving him money?

Still, after some thought, Frank decided to take up his offer. “Fine. But I’m not interested in money—just pour in your resources in helping me find the Five Elemental Wonders. If you succeed, I’ll buy them from you at a high price.”
