The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu
Chapter 1341

While the crowd was still left shocked by Jaden's defeat, his raging below left them silent again.

"What? Jaden was poisoned?"

"No way... When?"

"So that brat really is a cheater, poisoning Mr. Favoni while we weren't watching!"

However, Frank seemed to expect the audience's outrage and simply shrugged at Jaden and smiled. "Don't try to slander me now. I really don't need poison to beat you."

"Bullshit!" Jaden bellowed furiously. "How else would you know I'd be beaten even before the fight?!"

Then, as his agitation overwhelmed his nerves and with the poison kicking in as well, he coughed another pool of black blood and passed out.

"Jaden!"

Chelly leapt on stage right then, shaking Jaden while snapping at Frank, "I knew it! You're a cheater, poisoning my brother!"

"How dare you, Frank Lawrence!" Troy Bearson shouted below stage before Frank could argue, pointing at Frank and snapping, "Poisoning the heir of the Favoni family? The Bearsons will not let this rest!" With Troy taking the lead, the rest of the crowd erupted into a mob outrage.

"That's right! How dare you pull such a dirty move on Mr. Favoni!"

"Talk about a disgrace to martial artists. The Favonis were right about him."

"Heh, and Gene Pearce even bet on him? He must be involved too."

"To think the richest man on the east coast is in league with such a vile spawnling. How disappointing."

Even as everyone criticized Frank and Gene with him, even Walter became collateral for betting on Frank earlier.

From the crowd's perspective, they were all working together to poison Jaden and make a fortune with their rigged bets when Frank beat Jaden.

"Hmph. The East Coast has no place for such loathsome people!"

"Exactly! Poisoning Jaden Favoni?! There's no bottom too low for them!"

"I'm calling my family right now. We're severing our partnership contract with Lanecorp!"

A gleeful smile showed on Troy's face as various bigwigs were yelling at Frank in outrage.

However, when he turned to see how Frank was reacting, there was none of the panic or rage he expected.

Instead, Frank was clearly smirking at Troy himself!

Troy did a double take, his conscience eating him just then.

He was well aware of how powerful Frank was and really would not dare push Frank too far.

After all, if Frank really charged at him right now, ready to kill, there was no telling if Kilian would actually stop him, even if he was sitting right beside him.

Still, considering that Frank's reputation had already hit the dirt, he was a lot less afraid.

If Frank attacked Troy now, the man would only be provoking public outrage. At that point, forget Zamri-there was no place for Frank on the East Coast, and he and Lanecorp were going down! "Frank Lawrence, what happened here?!"

Just then, Stella came running out from the backstage.

She certainly did not believe that Frank would poison her brother while everyone watched. It was simply unnecessary and no different from slapping himself in the face!

Glancing at Stella, Frank said earnestly, "Someone poisoned your brother, and it's a poison that only takes effect after a precise period of time. In other words, someone is trying to scapegoat me and incite a war between your family and myself."
