The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage

That was until an ignorant man came calling.

"I heard you're Ms. Lane's sugar baby," he said as soon as he entered. "How much is she paying you every month? I can give you five million dollars right now, but you have to leave her."

The man looked around his thirties, and his suit gave him the look of one of those successful city boys.

In contrast, Frank was wearing his loose pajamas as he sat in his garden, sipping tea and gaping at the man, speechless.

He had only allowed the man inside when the latter rang the doorbell, saying that he was from a major construction company in another city and partners with Lanecorp.

Frank was naturally stupefied that the man would immediately assert his authority as soon as he strode through the front door.

And seeing that Frank was stunned, he laughed coolly. "How about that? I guess dregs of society such as yourself would never have seen so much money!"

Looking smug just then, he waved for his secretary to bring his briefcase, opening it in front of Frank and revealing rolls of brand-new dollar bills.

"There's 1.5 million dollars in here, and here's a 3.5 million dollar check. You can cash it in at any bank owned by Pearce Group. Come to me if it doesn't clear."

His confidence left Frank laughing, waving him off. "Sir..."

"I'm Huub Droitner. You can call me Mr. Droitner."

Frank was at once annoyed at being interrupted and frowned.

"I don't care who you are," he said. "First of all, I don't know who told you that I'm Ms. Lane's sugar baby. Also, who do you think you are? Why should I leave her just because you said so?"

Pointing at the gates, he snapped, "Get out while I'm still being nice!"

"Get out?"

Huub narrowed his eyes coolly. "You're not satisfied with my price? Word of advice-you really should think about this and know your place, or you'll suffer terribly

"You're telling me how to behave now too?"

Frank had actually thought Huub was agreeable when he first saw the man, but his behavior now left him thoroughly repulsed.

Snorting, he barked, "Someone get him out of here!"

Several security officers from Lanecorp's health and security department promptly hurried to the scene, scowling intimidatingly as they strode up in Huub's face.

"Fine. I guess you want to do this the hard way." Huub snorted and left with his briefcase and assistant.

One of the security officers even spat at Huub, "Hah! Who do you think you are, messing with our boss?!"

If he knew Huub was here to give Frank crap, he would not have let him through the front door!

Helen's phone call arrived just as

eline

Huub was chased away. "Huub Droitner from Bralog is asking to see you. He's the heir to Droitner Inc. who's going to be a partner of Lanecorp, and he should be on his way. Please receive him in my stead."

"He's already here." Frank snorted grumpily. "He called me a sugar baby as soon as he came in and demanded that I leave you, so I chased him

away."

"What?"

Helen was obviously surprised and murmured, "But there must be a mistake. He seemed so polite and

agreeable, which was why I was fine with him asking to see you
