The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage

Frank was not only the smart guy out there in the whole right world. In other

words, Mr. Creston had that in mind too!

He was helping because he had felt insulted after Frank flexed on him earlier, and

Dani was still useful to him-for now.

When she handed over the company, however, he would not hesitate to kick her

out! On top of that, he would make sure that she took the fall for all the dirty deeds

they did together.

In the end, she would not even be able to defend herself, while suffering lawsuits

and public condemnation!

Even so, she said, "I understand now. But it's never too late-I swear I'll change if

you give me a chance!"

Frank simply turned to Zein. "Actually, this man had the right idea-if he gave you

a chance, who would give him one?

"We're all adults here, so act your age. I'm sure you understand how a good

opinion, once lost, is lost forever."

"I get it!" Dani quickly said. "You don't have to keep me around, just-"

"No!" Frank snapped and crushed her left hand under his foot.

The terrible agony left her screaming, and she almost passed out.

Still, Dani resorted to using the law, seeing that they were refusing to spare her. "I-

I only made some mistakes, but I never killed anyone! The police can arrest me,

but none of you has that right!"

While those three might refuse to listen, they were still good people at heart, and

that meant they were always more reasonable than villains.

She might die anyway, so she had to try even if it was just a theory.

However, Frank glared at her icily as he snapped sternly, "Quit embarrassingnoveldrama

yourself. It's not that you didn't kill anyone-you just haven't done it yet!

"If I'd lost earlier, forget Drunken

Moon-you would've torture your

ex-husband to death even though he

has been so kind to you! Eliminating

you is the only way to spare myself

from further trouble!"

Finally knowing that she had no way out and that she had no chance of escaping

Frank, Dani still wanted to try!

When Frank turned away, she forced herself to her feet despite her pain and

sprinted for the door.

However, she barely moved a couple of paces when a mysterious force floored

her, pinning her down and keeping her from moving at all!

"No, I don't wanna die... I have so much to live for! You can't do this to me!"

No matter how Dani screamed, she simply could not invoke Frank's conscience.

It was thirty minutes before the screams stopped and silence returned.

Drunken Moon strode up to the

corpse, spitting at it. "Well, that's for

biting the hand that fed you. I guess

you'd understand the definition of

comeuppance now!"

"You weren't holding back earlier." Frank chuckled. "Still haven't had enough?"

"There's no limit to grief," Drunken Moon replied. "People like her are why women

get a bad rap these days."

Frank smiled and nodded-it was true that while Drunken Moon was a priestess,

she was a woman too and had her own considerations.

Still, he joked, "In that case, you should say that it's better to have a baby girl than

a boy."

Drunken Moon smiled, shaking his

head. "I would agree with that, but

the reality is that gender doesn't

decide competence or personality.

There's good and bad on both sides,

and all we can do is do our best to

eliminate the bad apples."
