The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage

Jade, Luna, and Fleur—who had a major disagreement with Frank and the others at Lane Manor just yesterday—were there too.

Pursing her lips, Fleur was already snorting when Frank arrived. "I'm telling you—he definitely came empty-handed and is going to appeal to our better nature using Henry Lane's name. I mean, these people, pooling a billion dollars in a day? Dream on!"

Roth Lane, Gavin's eldest son, was there too, frowning at her words.

"Madam Lang," he said quietly, "Mr. Lawrence isn't all he seems. A billion dollars really isn't that much money to him."

"Oh, don't be such a wuss, Roth.” Luna snorted haughtily. "Even I can admit that Frank Lawrence has friends, but gathering a billion dollars in a day? It's still a challenge.”

"Don't worry, Luna.” Jade grinned, winking at her. "That man obviously brought Helen here to appeal to emotion. And the farm is a money sink anyway—Helen would never make money out of it even if she bought it. They'd just lose more than what they bargained for.”

Luna smiled confidently at her mother's words.
