The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage

Chapter 1734



There was either no Bloodcrane Spiritbloom inside at all, or the box could contain the scent of the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom-just like the one Frank had.

"Hello? We're here."

Soon, Helen's call was answered, and an obscure woman's voice spoke from the other end.

Since Helen had put the call on loudspeaker, Frank could hear clearly enough to tell right away that it was none other than Horey Lindt.

"I'm watching the cameras," she said right away. "Frank Lawrence isn't here, is he?"

"Frank?"

Helen appeared shocked and frowned as she glanced at Huub and her mother. "Why would you care about Frank? Isn't the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom what you came for?"

"Heh. Well, he has the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom, so if he's not here, then it's not with you!"

"Hah!"NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Hearing how skeptical Horey was, Huub snatched Helen's phone right then and snapped coolly, "Listen closely! I am Huub Droitner, heir to Droitner Inc.! That so-called Bloodcrane Spiritbloom?! I have it too! And I'm now demanding that you free your hostage!"

A long silence ensued over the

phone before Horey suddenly burst out in laughter of disdain. "Pfft... Huub Droitner, you say? Who do you think you

are?! And you think some tiny company like yours could hold on to a Bloodcrane Spiritbloom? You'd be dead before you know it!" to

Huub was left flushed by the kidnapper's diss but persisted nheless. "It's a family heirloom kept well hidden for years! I wouldn't be taking it out if not for Helen!"

Hearing that, Gina clapped Helen on

the shoulder repeatedly while looking at Huub in admiration. "Just look at Mr. Droitner, Helen! He doesn't even flinch when he has to give up a family heirloom for your sake... he has such a big heart! Why hesitate when he's already gone this far for you?" to

"The way I see it, you should forget about Frank already! Did you see the look on his face when we begged him for the same thing? He just says no to our faces, even if it's Gavin, who has helped you so much. He wouldn't mind watching Gavin being kidnapped and tortured just to hold on to his herb. to

"See? Now, Mr. Droitner is even helping you negotiate the release of your uncle! Where's Frank now? Forget coming to help-he's not even calling you! An ingrate to the last! Why would you want anything to do with a man like him?!"

Gina's endless rambling left Helen scowling and shaking her head. "Stop meddling, Mom. That's my business."

"I'm just worried about you."

Gina sighed. "How long have you been with Frank? He couldn't even give up an herb, while Mr. Droitner did it with no hesitation! Don't you think that's worrying?!"

And while Helen and Gina were busy talking, Horey became hesitant over the phone. "Did you really bring a Bloodcrane Spiritbloom?"

"Of course," Huub said confidently, tapping on the box in front of Helen. "You're watching from the cameras, aren't you? Then you can see this box- it's a family heirloom that can keep anything sealed inside. The Bloodcrane Spiritbloom you want is right inside."

Horey was left silent for a long while before she eventually said, "Leave the box in the room, and all of you must leave the building. I'll release the hostage later."
