The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu
Chapter 1114

Still, while Gene was left at a loss, Frank appeared used to it as he stood beside Gene.

"Don't worry about her. She's just a clown."

Frank waved at Cindy dismissively, ready to sidestep her and head to Helen's office with Gene.

"Hey, hey, hey. Hold it."

Cindy suddenly strode up, stepping in Gene's path.

"Is something the matter?" Gene asked, unsettled by the contempt in Cindy's eyes.

He was the richest man on the east coast-no one had ever treated him like that before!

"Let me guess. Since Frank invited you, that would mean you're Gene Pearce, the richest man on the east coast?"

"Indeed, I am." Gene nodded calmly.

Frank frowned right then and snapped at Cindy, "Watch yourself, Cindy! Stop causing trouble!"

"No way! Me, causing trouble?"

Cindy sneered, studying Gene pointedly while clicking her tongue. "Honestly, can't you afford a professional? Your paid actor looks so pale like he could kick the bucket at any minute." "What?" Gene was left stunned when did he become a paid actor?

Beside him, Frank quickly realized what Cindy was talking about and shoved her away, snapping, "Last warning-get out, or I'll make you."

"Go on, make me!" Cindy retorted defiantly, pointing at herself.

She had seen the truth-that Frank and Helen really did not care about her now. But so what?! They could kill her for all she cared, because Gina Zonda would do her best to avenge her! None of them would get away comfortably if she could not!

"Wait, there must be some misunderstanding here..."

Gene said just then, smiling calmly, "Ms. Zonda? I am really Gene Pearce, and I'm here to discuss a collaboration with Lanecorp."

Cindy sneered in turn. "And your company is just giving off the land lots we asked for, right?"

"Exactly." Gene nodded and turned to flash a smile at the Lanecorp employees around them. "Mr. Lawrence and I had come to an agreement yesterday, and I've come to oversee the handover."

"Bullshit!" Cindy bellowed, leaving Gene's smile stiffening as she pointed him in the nose. "Stop giving me that crap! Gene Pearce is the richest man on the east coast. Why would someone like him visit a smal company like ours?! Oh, and you somehow didn't bring a single bodyguard with you?! Who would ever believe this?! Get yourself a better paid actor, Frank!"

While Gene felt slighted by Cindy's skeptical attitude, he replied politely, "Mr. Lawrence is the best bodyguard anyone can ask for, and he alone is enough...

Cindy mimicked him right then. "Mr. Lawrence is the best bodyguard anyone can ask for, and he alone is enough... Yada yada! You're sickening! Go on, prove that you're really Gene Pearce if you can! I will kowtow to you and Frank right now if you can! Otherwise, you will kowtow to me instead-how about that?!"
