The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu -
Chapter 925
Cato pursed his lips and shrugged. "Very well. Just come to me anytime you feel overwhelmed. I could always get you a job—subcontractor companies like mine are always hiring."
"That's unnecessary," Frank replied coolly.
It was obvious Cato considered Frank to be beneath him, and his joboffers were clearly his way of mocking Frank.
Frank certainly would never fall for such a cheap trick.
"Enough small talk,” Helen said as Frank took a seat. She then took outan agreement from her briefcase and pushed it to Frank. "Frank, theSouthstream Lanes are building a mansion for Mark Lane as a gift forretirement. Everything about the subcontractor involved and variousother finer details are included—take a look and see if there's anythingmissing."
Frank took the agreement, but while he combed through it, Luna wasscowling impatiently. "Are you going to sign it or not, Helen? I workedhard to get Cato's help, and he can give us a ten percent rebate whileproviding good work. Why would you let some ignoramus like Frankread the agreement?"
Helen did not hold back this time and retorted, "I've been given fullauthority on this matter. Ask Grandfather if you're upset with thearrangement.”
Luna's face contorted like she ate dung.
“I'm done.” Frank returned the agreement to Helen soon enough."What do you think?" Helen asked him eagerly.
Frank nodded. "The agreement details are very much you. Includingeven construction mishaps in the clauses is a nice touch... but there'ssomething you missed.”
"What?" Helen was taken aback.
Even Gina's ears pricked up in attention.
"Are you sure about the subcontractor's background?" Frank asked."Are you sure it's not a shell company, ready to bail once they get yourmoney?"
While Helen appeared thoughtful after hearing what Frank had to say,Luna leapt up, slamming her hand on the table, pointing at Frank asshe snapped, "What do you think you are doing?! Cato is my contact,and I can be a referee to his character! Bailing once he gets ourmoney? There's a limit to how much bullshit you can spew, y'know!""Exactly!" Cato bellowed coldly at Frank, clearly furious too. “I've beenoperating a serious company for years, and I have a good reputationhere in Morhen. Why would I trick some bumpkin from a backwaterplace like Riverton?! The paltry pay you can barely afford is beneathyou—I wouldn't even take the job if Luna never reached out to me...and you'd insult me instead?! Unbelievable!"
His reaction only confirmed Frank's hunch.
Still, he smiled faintly but said nothing—all he offered was asuggestion, and it was Helen who decided what to do.
"What about this?"
Helen spoke solemnly after some thought. “Let's take a trip to Cato'scompany. I'll need to look at your company's conditions before thepaperwork. That's not too much to ask for, is it?"
"Hmph." Luna snorted unhappily.
