The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu
Chapter 1509

Wilk was left clutching his face and staring at Cid in disbelief. "What? Cid...? Why did you hit me?"

"Hit you?! I was planning to kill you!"

Bang!

Cid leapt up, seizing Wilk by the collar and slamming him into his oak dining table!

It was such a terrible blow that Wilk was coughing blood, his vision blurring.

Still, even as he pushed himself off the ground, he was left staring forward in shock before he could say a word.

Cid was beckoning at the Sunblazers, and they were all soon kneeling in front of Frank.

"Greetings, Mr. Lawrence!"

As they all greeted him deafeningly, Wilk, who just got to his feet, dropped limply to the floor again, all his strength drained.

"Mr. Lawrence? What..."

He stared in shock at the scene before him-who on earth was that pompous bastard?!

Why would the Sunblazers who always carried themselves above the rest-be on their knees, greeting that man with pure reverence?!

That was when Wilk remembered Frank looking at him with gleeful sympathy and reasoned with him not to open the gates.

But Wilk was stubborn, his fury consuming his rationality... and now he reaped the fruits of his stupidity.

"Get up. Spare me those formalities." Frank waved off the Sunblazers just then and asked Cid, "So, how's the gang?"

"Everything's fine, Mr. Lawrence. Not many in West Morhen are a match for us."

Cid stood up but remained utterly respectful toward Frank.

He was aware that Frank was someone amazing.

Thanks to Ned Janko's hints, Cid and his brother had realized that he was the only son of the famous Lord of the Southern Woods, who stood guard over Southdam! Even someone like Ned would have to show Frank due respect in his presence!

As such, a humble gang like the Sunblazers could not afford to get on the wrong side of Frank.

On the other hand, they could ride on his success just by staying connected with him, which was why Cid was basically worshiping Frank. "Good."

Frank nodded, not particularly interested in Cid's sycophancy.

He was just about to ask if the Sunblazers had any information on the Lionhearts' movements when a scream echoed upstairs.

Then, they watched as Mrs. Sturgeon scrambled downstairs, her eyes glowing when she saw Cid.

"Cid, you have to help me!" she bawled, throwing herself into his arms.

"Eh?"

Frank was left stunned as he looked on, while an awkward look appeared on Cid's face.

In the distance, Wilk was even more confused-when did his wife get so close with Cid?!

Meanwhile, Mrs. Sturgeon was sobbing hysterically, as if she was about to fall apart. "T-That's him, Cid... He hurt my husband and my son-"

"Shut up!"

Cid snapped at Mrs. Sturgeon despite his awkward reaction. "Get out! This is none of your business.

"What?!"

Cid's attitude left Mrs. Sturgeon sobbing even harder. "Y-You scoundrel! You told me you could help me if I'm in trouble! But now that my son and I are being bullied, you're snapping at me instead of helping?!"
