The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu -
Chapter 1128
"Now, now. Watch your words now, Clarity," the leader said quietly. "Ms. Lionheart is an heiress of direct lineage. You will suffer reprisals for your impudent words if the Lionhearts hear what you said." To his surprise, Clarity seemed not to care at all.
"Heh..." She scoffed, waving him off exasperatedly. "That's enough from you. I'm in a good mood, so I won't hold your intrusion against you just yet. However, I like this man, and I've decided no one gets to lay a finger on him as long as he's on Waver Street. Now get out."
"What?"
The leader was hesitant, clearly fearing Clarity.
Why else would he and his men be trading glances, clearly hesitant about their next move?
"Hah!"
One of the goons-a peak Birthright rank- trode up, pointing at Clarity as he snapped, "You're Talnamese, so don't push it! We will have Frank Lawrence, and no one says no to the Lionhearts!" "Exactly! If you want to stay on Waver Street, move aside! Stay out of Lionheart business!"
"We will have Frank Lawrence now!"
Clarity glowered since they were ready for a fight and turned toward Frank with an accusing sigh. "Look what you've done, now, handsome. Oh, what should I do now? Hand you over as I'm told?" "Hmph." Frank snorted coldly and got up, ready to leave and not involve Clarity.
However, Clarity caught his wrist before he could go, pouting, "Honestly, why are you so impatient? I never said I'm handing you over!"
She stood up as well and narrowed her eyes at the Lionheart goons with a smile. "Gentleman, since you're ready to get violent in my tavern, you'd have to adhere to one condition of mine." "What is it?" the leader asked in surprise.
"Stay here forever."
"What-"
Even before the leader could react, Clarity had waved her hand, releasing a puff of pink powder.
It spread against the air into a pink mist, quickly shrouding the dozen martial artists at the doorway. "Argh!!!"
"Bonemelter?!"
Frank's eyes widened in shock and wariness, even as the Lionheart goons screamed hysterically. Soon, they were reduced to nothing but pus in just two minutes after they barged through the front door. Even as Frank glanced at Clarity, he made a mental note that she would be a troublesome opponent.
On the other hand, Clarity was her charming self when she turned back to Frank. "I'm afraid I can't tell you who I am. What I can tell you that this place is where Blackrank missions and bounties are assigned, so you can say that I'm very well-informed."
"As for your beloved... She should be arriving in Jundo Showtown soon, though Sif Lionheart has a whole trove of traps waiting for her."
Clarity clicked her tongue as she sighed and smiled. "Tut, tut... the road ahead is treacherous for you, but I like you, so you can have another piece of information for free. You want evidence that the Lionhearts framed the Turnbulls, don't you?"
