The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage

Seeing Helen's look of confusion, Frank nodded calmly. "Though I wouldn't say Fleur Lang's merely involved... The whole thing was planned up by her and Gable Lane."

"What...?!"

Helen was stunned speechless and was left further shocked to learn that Frank kept Gable confined here in Lanecorp Tower.

How could she have known that so much could happen in the Lane family in the brief few days she was gone?

Frank then took a recording device from his pocket and put it on Helen's desk, chuckling coolly as he told the security guards, "Go. Bring Jade Zahn and Gable Lane here. Also, let Fleur Lang and her friends in I will interrogate them directly."

However, as soon as Fleur and her group entered Helen's office, they did not expect Fleur to seize the initiative right away.

"Frank Lawrence!" She pointed at Frank's face as she bellowed, "You are an enemy! You're not a member of our family-you have no right abducting my son! He just went out to buy me medicine, so you better have an explanation or I will make you pay!"

Helen was left a little confused by Fleur's outburst but frowned as she quickly reasoned, "Please calm down, Madam Lang. Let's sit down and properly talk about this."

"Calm down?!"

Fleur wheeled on Helen right then, laughing coolly. "How are you leading our family when you're so stupid?! Don't you know that while you're gone, Frank Lawrence set the stage to frame our entire family, ready to take everything from us?! It doesn't matter what Gable has to say-Frank must have tortured him to confess!"

Helen was actually surprised Fleur was so cunning she threw the blame on Frank as soon as she arrived.

Though she doubted that Frank would actually do something like that, Fleur still held authority in the Lane family, and criticism was inevitable if this was mishandled.

As Helen quickly turned toward Frank, she found him folding his arms before his chest as he watched Fleur in amusement.

He even shrugged and smiled, "You can't beat the truth, old-timer. Why don't we let your son and the recently bereaved Jade testify? See if I tortured anyone to confess."

Just as Fleur was about to speak, Helen's office door opened again.

A mournful Jade shambled inside, followed by Gable, basically dragged inside like a dog.

"Go on, tell us."

Frank watched Gable in amusement, folding his arms before his chest. "Tell us how you became friends with Corpsedale, and why Luna is dead."

"Luna... My baby girl..." Jade was suddenly alert when she heard Luna's name mentioned.

It was only then that she noticedNôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

Fleur standing at a corner and started bawling immediately, "Madam Lang! Why did you have to kill my daughter?! That blind date you introduced Luna butchered her and tried to shift the blame on Frank! If you refuse to explain yourself... I-I'|| kill you!"

Seeing Jade's crazed glare, Fleur quickly retreated behind her bodyguards while snapping vindictively, "Calm down, Jade! What's wrong with you?! I introduced a blind date for Luna out of the goodness of my heart, but you're joining Frank in slandering me?!

"I'm devastated about Luna's death too! We are family, and she's my granddaughter-am I so cold that I'd just let her die?! And the crime scene wasn't owned by us Southstream Lanes! Family would never hurt family... don't you see who are the real culprits here?!"
