The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu

Helen was obviously surprised and murmured, "But there must be a mistake. Huub Droitner seemed so polite and agreeable, which was why I was fine with him asking to see you." "Can't judge a book by its cover."

Frank chuckled. "You'd better watch out. I can see that he bears ill will."

"We're just business partners, and I was thinking about using his family's government connections. Since they mean to do harm, I'll just have to call it off."

Helen was determined, too-if Frank sensed an issue, she would not waste her breath.

Gavin Lane, Helen's uncle, was supposed to return after a couple of days from a business trip, but it had been a week since he was last seen.

His family could not reach him and there was no sign of him in Zamri, and there was nothing suspicious about the people whom he met for business talks either.

They all testified that Gavin had left after their meeting-as to where, they had no idea.
