The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu
Chapter 187

Kenny was surprised that the panacea polypore was that popular.

And since he had promised Frank that he would get it for him, it would be awkward if someone elsebought it instead.

Still, Frank went up to the worker and said, "Can we meet the owner? I'm willing to buy it at a highprice.”

"Yes... Yes!" Kenny nodded in response, whipping out a stack of dollar bills and handing it to theworker. "You can have this—take us to the owner right now."

The worker was left staring at the fat stack of cash, his awkward expression instantly turning into asmile. "This way please, gentlemen.”

At the back of Vintagers, Cindy was just exclaiming excitedly, "Mr. Wicker, do show us the panaceapolypore!"

Johnny Wicker, the pudgy owner of Vintagers, was all smiles as he drew out a wooden chest. "Calmdown, miss—this is it, the panacea polypore. Five million dollars, and I won't take any bargaining.”Cindy quickly turned toward Gina. "You can pay him now, Aunt Gina."

"Huh... actually, is it really supposed to be so expensive?" Gina pursed her lips.

She knew Cindy was just buying a single herb... but she did not expect it to be that expensive!

"Of course, ma'am," Johnny said mysteriously just then. "The polypore is a natural wonder, a herbthat absorbs Mother Nature's essence. It's a treasure that isn't readily available, and five million is aspecial price I've set for you, Ms. Zonda. I wouldn't actually sell this to anyone else.”

Cindy nodded repeatedly. "Come on, Aunt Gina. Once I succeed in securing a partnership with Ms.Salazar, I'll pay you back.”

Gina gritted her teeth—five million it was.

Her niece's business would boom eventually, and if she was stingy, their relatives might startbadmouthing her.

Still, just as she took out her credit card, Frank and Kenny entered.

"Wait," Kenny said, hurrying toward them with an apologetic smile. "Could we have that panaceapolypore instead? We will pay double.”

Gina did a double take.

Double?! That was definitely a good deal.

However, Cindy immediately disagreed. "Why should Mr. Wicker sell it to you? First come, firstserved! And we won't sell it no matter how much you're offering!"

Frank stepped forward just then. "Ma'am..."

Upon a closer look, he realized that it was Helen's cousin Cindy.

They had met at his wedding before, and he also noticed Helen and Gina behind Cindy.

"Frank Lawrence?"

They were both surprised to see him too, and Gina was already snapping furiously, "What are youdoing here, lowlife?!”

Kenny gasped—who was that woman, talking to Frank like that?

He told Gina, "Please watch your language, ma'am.”

"Who are you?" Gina snapped coolly, holding her hands on her hips. "It's none of your business howI lecture my lowlife former son-in-law!"

"Huh... Wait, you're Mr. Lawrence's mother-in-law?" Kenny was on the verge of an outburst butquickly stopped himself.

Frank frowned just then. "That's enough, Gina. Let's cut to the chase.”
