The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu
Chapter 541

"Aria Lond!"

Frank's fist was still awash with blood as endless rage flared within him.

He had been careful last night during the banquet at White Hall. He inspected every kitchen utensiland piece of food to ensure there was no poison before setting his mind at ease.

The only thing he did not take notice of was the wine Aria served him.

Despite Aria's endlessly devious nature, he thought he could forgive Aria since she was Winter'sfriend. After that shenanigan of hers, she should be turning over a new leaf and genuinely reflecting.That was why Frank did not expect her to poison him instead!

Thud! Thud!

Frank started to hit himself with Sage Lake Sect's Lotus Poke, striking various acupoints to fire up hisvigor and dispel the poison.

"Oof!" Burt grunted as he was sent flying, his face turning pale right then.

"Burt!"

Frank looked up just then to see Burt being sent flying, his eyes turning red as he glided forwardand caught Burt.

"Cough, cough...” Burt collapsed in Frank's arms and hacked violently, blood welling out of hismouth.

"M-Mr. Lawrence... My meridian nexus..."

Frank promptly tore through Burt's clothes to replace the distinct bruise on his abdomen.

His eyes flashing, he looked up furiously at the middle-aged man who was gloating. "BurtYorkman... I was the one who chose you and groomed you, but you betrayed Sage Lake Sect. In thatcase, I shall take back everything we gave you, and you can enjoy the life of a cripple.”

Around them, the black-clad men stopped attacking after the middle-aged man showed up, merelykeeping Frank, Burt, the old man, and his granddaughter at the center.

"Mr. Lawrence, I..."

"Don't talk!" Frank snapped even as he sweated from his brow, his hand a blur as he poked Burt'sacupoints to seal them, preventing further loss of vigor.

"B-Birthright rank?!"

The old man, who managed to survive the black-clad men's assault, could feel his hands shake evenas he stared at the middle-aged man.

"Hmph." The middle-aged man snorted just then. "I'll at least acknowledge your strength, FrankLawrence, since you survived the assault of so many Sage Lake Sect apprentices... But it's over now."
