Chapter 172
The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage
Kenny stopped James before he could leave, growling, âWhat, are you going to seek revenge later?â
Jamesâ face turned ashenâhe certainly intended to do so!
However, he said, âI would never dare when youâve told me not to, Mr. Sparks.â
Kenny chuckled. âGood.â
Everyone watched as James and his men left, with Robert breathing a sigh of relief before turning to Kenny. âIâm surprised. Youâre acquainted with Mr. Lawrence as well, Mr. Sparks?â
âOf course!â Kenny laughed heartily. âMs. Turnbull herself introduced us, and I had the honor of witnessing him saving Gerald Simmons from the brink with just a pill.â
âWhat?!â Robert exclaimed, turning toward Frank in shockâthe man was certainly full of surprises!
Still, Kenny warned Frank just then, âMr. Lawrence, itâs clear that James Wesley isnât going to let this slide. You really should be more careful.â
Frank shrugged, but his words were charged with killing intent. âIâll destroy him and his family altogether if he tests me.â
Both Robert and Kenny felt a chill down their spine right then and traded glances.
It seemed that the one they saved today was James, not Frank!
Kenny approached Frank with a smile just then. âMr. Lawrence, Iâve actually come with a favor to ask!â
Frank studied himâeven if they were not closely acquainted, he knew that Kenny was close to Vicky.
He did not say no for Vickyâs sake, not to mention that Kenny just stood up for him as well. â You may ask freely. I will help if I can.â
Kenny was delighted that Frank was so agreeable. âActually, my father used to be a martial artist who often saw action, and he sustained plenty of undetectable injuries. As he aged, he became bedridden⦠so I was wondering if you still have Ichor Pills? Iâll pay you a fortune for it.
Kenny was actually obsessed with the Ichor Pill ever since he witnessed its power, and buying one was certainly worth any cost!
Frank smiled in turn. âIâm sorry, Mr. Sparks, but everyoneâs condition is different and the Ichor Pill might not work. I would prefer to diagnose your fatherâs condition before deciding.â
âWell, when would you be free to visit my dojo?â Kenny quickly asked. âDonât worry. Iâll pay you for the consultation as well.â
Frank thought about it. âTomorrow.â
âGreat!â Kenny exclaimed in delight. âIâll personally come to pick you up tomorrow.â
Even without the Ichor Pill, his father still stood a chance given Frankâs incredible knowledge on medicine.
And with that agreed, Kenny and Robert quickly bade their leave.
Meanwhile, Gina and Peter had just rushed to Riverton Hospital.
Chris was already there, and walked up to Gina when she saw them. âHello, Mrs. Lane.â
Gina stared at the unfamiliar face and asked curiously, âAnd you areâ¦?â
âHave you forgotten, Mrs. Lane? Iâm Chris Steiner, Helenâs classmate back in college.â
Gina remembered the name right then. âOh, Mr. Steiner!â
The Steiners were an important family as well. Even if they paled in comparison to the Wesleys, Chris was both loyal and exceptional. Rumor had it that he furthered his studies abroadâthat was years ago, so he must have successfully returned now!
