The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu
Chapter 452

In the end, there were just too many quack doctors and swindlers.

Meeting such an extraordinary healer like Frank was a rarity, and Paul would like to get better assoon as he could.

Vicky listened to both men awkwardly for a long while and eventually said, "Mr. Fielden, about thedrakeroot..."

Paul remembered with a start and quickly said, "Oh, I really would have forgotten if you didn'tremind me. Just wait a moment—T'll get it right now."

He hurried to his house's basement and soon returned with the drakeroot.

Frank took a moment to verify it before nodding at Vicky.

Vicky then turned toward Paul. "So how much would you like for the drakeroot, Mr. Fielden?"

Paul smiled. "What are you saying, Ms. Turnbull? That slut would still have kept me in the dark if notfor Mr. Lawrence here. Just consider it my gift."

"In that case, thank you very much.” Vicky nodded, not shying from taking such generosity. "If youcould make time, do come by Grande Pharma—we might be partners again.”

Paul nodded. "For sure.”

Frank and Vicky made a little small talk with him before leaving, since Frida was still waiting.However, they had not left for that long when a Mercedes stopped right outside Paul's house.Jade alighted first, studying the residence for a moment before rolling her eyes in disdain—it was afar cry from her mansion!

She strode through the front gates, with Helen and Gina hurrying after her.

As Gina pressed the doorbell, Paul was left dumbfounded—did Vicky and Frank leave somethingbehind?

Still, he opened the door to replace three women standing there and was left scratching his head incuriosity. "You are?"

"Mr. Fielden, we're from the Lane family,” Gina introduced herself enthusiastically. "I'm Gina Zonda,and this is my daughter Helen Lane, CEO of Lane Holdings."

She then turned to Jade, who added somberly, "This is Jade Zahn from Southstream...”

Paul was completely bemused, since he had not the faintest idea who Jade or Gina were.

Still, he had heard of Helen and that she was the Turnbulls' partner, so Paul actually regarded herwith importance.

"Oh, I see. To what do I owe the pleasure?” he asked politely.

Helen sighed in relief—they had hope since Paul was friendly.

Before she could speak, however, Jade snapped behind her, "I heard you have a drakeroot.”

"I do..." Paul replied, but was already frowned at Jade's haughty attitude.

"Well, my daughter needs it right now. Give it to me."

Helen quickly said, "Please don't misunderstand, Mr. Fielden. We're going to buy it, of course.”"Hmph! You should be honored that the Lanes of Northstream want something you have!"

Jade snorted coldly as she folded her arms before her chest before wheeling on Helen. "Also, howunimportant can you Lanes of Southstream be? Prostrating yourself over a mere herb—you are anembarrassment to our name!"

Helen was speechless—did Jade consider herself an emperor or something? Was that how sheasked for a favor?

Gina quickly said just then, "Oh, it's fine, Jade. Don’t worry about it—we certainly wouldn'tcompare.”

On the other hand, Paul was glowering. "What the hell is this nonsense? Also, I'm not selling thedrakeroot.”
