The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage



With the three days for gathering evidence having passed, that also meant that the Martial Tournament finals would take place tomorrow... Turning to Nurse Faith, Frank asked, "Is Winter here? I'd like to see her."

"The chief...?"

Nurse Faith appeared hesitant. "She's attending the commissioner's funeral. All the rich and important figures in Zamri are attending."

"The commissioner's funeral?"

Frank was taken aback but soon laughed.

Funeral? It was just an excuse to tell the world that Frank had failed and that his crime of murdering the commissioner was the truth now.

Soon, Lanecorp and Zamri Hospital would suffer because of Frank as well.

Still, Frank did some thinking and decided that crashing the funeral right now would be pointless.

Since he did not have any evidence, he could not prove his innocence even if he went...

That was when he suddenly remembered Blackie.

That kid had always been shadowing Tidus after Frank took Tidus under his wings, and he did not expect Blackie's betrayal.

As such, his relieved mood tensed up right then, and he asked, "By the way, there were two bodies in that ambulance that brought me here. They're..."

"Oh..."

Nurse Faith paused and sighed ever so quietly. "The police were here, and forensic personnel have already done their post-mortem examination... Though it was pointless, since they were obviously gunned down."

"I know."

Frank waved her off and asked solemnly, "May I see them?"

"Oh..."

Nurse Faith murmured but nodded

"Sure. They're in the

"I see."

Frank nodded and said nothing else.

Soon, Nurse Faith led him to the sub-basement morgue.

She stood aside, refraining from imposing, while Frank gently lifted the cloth over the bodies.

He held the faintest of hopes, but it vaporized after he saw the familiar faces.

Seeing Tidus lying dead on a slab left Frank silent, his gaze troubled.

"Tidus."

He eventually put his hand on Tidus' ice-cold cheek. "It's all my fault. I only I had stayed sharp, then you and Lizzie would still be enjoying yourselves at the amusement park."

Then, turning toward the other body, Frank sighed. "Lizzie... Tidus can be a little troublesome, but I hope you'll watch over him, wherever you may be. Don't let him get ahead of himself.

"There's nothing much I can do now... but I can at least avenge you."Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Then, cleaning up Tidus' face, Frank calmly left the morgue.

He then borrowed Nurse Faith's phone and quickly made a call. "Trevor."

"Are you already up, Mr. Lawrence?"

"Yeah."
