The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu
Chapter 760

Frank nodded as Gus turned toward him with a pointed look. "Of course—I would certainly acceptthe olive branch you offer.”

Then, turning toward Willy, he said, "I'm sorry for what happened before, Mr. Sorano.”

However, there was no hint of sincerity in Frank's apology. If anything, it sounded like an insult.Willy's face darkened, but he was afraid to throw a fit.

Instead, he resorted to name-dropping. "My father will hear about this, Gus Zeller!"

"Sure." Gus nodded impassively. "Though that would have to wait after the murderer of my mentoris unmasked."

Willy stiffened at Gus’ words, but he snorted as he turned and strode off.

"Mr. Lawrence.” Gus actually saluted Frank, a stark contrast to Willy's frustrated reaction.

As Gus beckoned for the Soranos’ men to leave with him, Helen was still caught off guard by Gusand the Soranos' quick change in attitude.

"What's going on Frank?" she asked—was Gus really backing down because of Frank's strength?Frank was staring at Gus pensively. "This isn't going to be that simple.”

"Ahem..."

Mark and Gavin, who had been upstairs, came down with the assistance of their bodyguards.Gavin was clearly beaten up, his face battered and bruised, unable to speak fluently. Even so, henodded gratefully at Frank and Helen.

Mark had bruises on his face too, but he was in a much better condition than Gavin.

"Grandpa..."

"Dad!"

Even as their family encircled them, Mark ignored them and turned toward Helen, who stoodbeyond. "Thank you, Helen. You really saved our family there!"

"I don't agree.” Fleur snorted, sarcastic again now that there was no threat. "If not for her, theSoranos would never have attacked us. It's all Helen and her ex-husband's fault!"

Pausing, she then added, "The way I see it, we should cut all ties with the Northstream Lanes andavoid getting involved with them ever again.”

"Grandma's right,” Luna quickly agreed. "Our family was totally innocent, and it's Helen and her ex-husband's fault! They should be handling it themselves in the first place!”

Jade Zahn was also glaring furiously at Frank, feeling pained for her son Roth Lane. "Such a shamethey never had to pay the price for their troubles, while we became their scapegoat.”

"Enough!" Mark barked, stopping them as he glanced between Helen and Frank.

He knew that Jade and the others were right, and that Frank had caused this problem in the firstplace.

Nonetheless, he already had a mind to appoint Helen as the next head of the Lane family, and withFrank's help, they would have even more opportunities.

Though that meant more risks in return, Mark had always been adventurous and was thereforemore keen for Helen to become next head of the Lane family.

However, to boldly say it now would likely lead to fervent protests. Instead, Mark cleared his throattwice and said, "Be quiet. Now, listen to me."
