The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu
Chapter 532

Soon however, Aria flinched as she remembered something else and quickly asked, "What aboutafter I leave White Hall? C-Can you still protect me after that, Mr. White?"

"Oh, well..." Eron shook his head as if troubled. "I'm sorry, Ms. Lond... But if you leave, Mr. Lawrenceisn't going to play to our tune.”

Aria was shocked, her heart sinking rock-bottom again despite just replaceing some sense of comfort."Mr. White, please, you have to help me," she pleaded. "Please talk to Frank. I-It was just a mistake, Ididn't mean anything bad. I just love him so much, I..."

Seeing how gullible Aria was, Eron could not feel more disdain for Aria at this point.

Still, he kept his thoughts from showing because he needed her for his plans.

Pretending to be deep in thought, he then walked up and helped her to her feet and whispered intoher ear, "Actually, there's no way to get Mr. Lawrence to forgive you... But I have a proposal. I'll onlytell you if you're willing to do it, but if you refuse, you just have to suffer Mr. Lawrence's wrath...which I'm sure would be a fate worse than death.”

"Tell me, Mr. White! What is it?"

Aria's nerves could not be stretched thinner, and since Eron was clearly keeping her on tenterhooks,she quickly added, "Just save me, Mr. White. I'll do anything you ask!"

"Hoho..." Eron’s eyes narrowed as he smiled, knowing that the time was right. "In that case, I'll say it:Mr. Lawrence would be taking part in a martial tourney tomorrow, and that's your chance at savingyour own skin."

Aria was completely puzzled. "Frank's going to a tourney... is this my chance?"

"I have a poison here.” Eron held up a small packet, smiling faintly. "It's odorless and tasteless, but itwill numb Mr. Lawrence's nerves while he takes part in the tourney. It's nothing malignant, or Mr.Lawrence would notice it easily given his knowledge in medicine. Just poison him with this, and he'lllose the tourney and be too hurt to come after you.”

"Poison?" Aria gathered herself as she took the packet from Eron.

She mused to herself for a while, but her eyes soon flashed viciously. "Don't you have a more potentpoison? Something lethal.”

Her request left Eron taken aback, though he almost laughed out loud.

She was far more vile than he thought! Was she not just declaring how much she loved Frankearlier? And now, she wanted him dead?

Still, he held back a smile as he said, "That's unnecessary. I'm sure you'll understand what it meansto not overreach. Like I said, Frank is well-versed in medicine and would notice a poison that's tooobvious. On the other hand, this is budsnuff—a family recipe that almost wouldn't qualify as poison.It only numbs the nerves and is used as a painkiller. Just make Mr. Lawrence drink it tonight, andyou'll understand tomorrow."

Aria's fingers clenched around the small packet, her eyes flashing viciously.

It was Frank who insisted on replaceing the truth, and he could not blame her for this! She had nochoice!

"By the way..."

Before he left, Eron leveled a twinkling gaze at Aria. "You can come to my bedroom if you're not toobusy—there's plenty more to discuss, see?"

Eron's meaning was obvious, and Aria did not hesitate as she grinned coquettishly. "Of course."
