Chapter 178
The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage
Chris snorted. âI know every mansion owner here in Skywater Bay. Why have I never seen you?
It was no beastâthere were no more than a hundred mansion owners in Skywater Bay, all of whom were important locals or individuals from nearby states.
Chris even knew which mansion belonged to whom.
Peter snapped at Frank right then, âAre you deaf?! He asked you a question!â.
Gina scoffed in disdain as well. âWhat, cat got your tongue?â
Frank simply pointed at the hilltop mansion. âThatâs my house.â
âHaha!â Chris laughed right then. âYouâre really too much.â
âYou own the hilltop mansion?â Gina scoffed. âKnow your limit when youâre lying, Frank. Or do you really take us for fools?â
âYou donât belong here⦠No, I think youâre just here to break into the mansion,â Peter snapped and turned to Chris. âCall the cops. Have him arrested.â
Chris sneered and shook his head. âThatâs unnecessary. Skywater Bayâs security personnel are all veteran mercenariesâthey would have no issue with him.â
With that, he whipped out his phone to make the call, his eyes still fixed on Frank. âYouâd better admit that you sneaked in before security comes, or youâre not getting away when they arrived.â
Frank simply stared at them in wry amusement.
âOnce ignorant, always ignorant. Youâre not worth my time.â
Shaking his head exasperatedly, Frank started to turn and leave, but Peter promptly leaped up, grabbing his arm. âStop! Who told you that you could leave?!â
He had been meaning to get payback, and he was not about to let this chance slip!
Frank looked at his hand in disdain. âLet go.â
âOr what, are you going to hit me? Here, of all places?â Peter sneered smuglyâhe wanted exactly that.
Frankâs eyes flashed in anger, and he raised his hand, ready to slap Peter!
âStop!â Chris suddenly shouted on top of his lungs as Skywater Bayâs security arrived. âThatâs him! He sneaked into our neighborhood, and lookâheâs going to start a fight!â
Peter was overjoyed as well. âHurry! I got him right here! Beat him up!â
However, as Jimmyâthe captain of the security teamâhurried forward, he was left dumbstruck when he saw Frank.
Sneak in?! The man fucking owned the hilltop mansion, and Yara Quill herself had personally escorted him there!
Even if Jimmy had no idea who Frank really was, the fact that he remained unscathed after killing Sean Wesley made it obvious he was no average Joe!
âLet go of him right now!â Jimmy barked at Peter even as he sweated bullets.
Peter was too stunned to understand what happened, even as Jimmy pulled his hand off. âWhat are you doing?!â Gina snapped furiously. âArenât you going to punish that interloper?!â
âShut up!â jimmy bellowed. âHe owns a mansion here, so donât you dare spout such slander!â âWhat?!â
The trio were certainly stunned by Jimmyâs words.
Gina and Peterâs jaws could drop on the floor right then, and they could scarcely believe their ears.
Chris was completely bewildered too.
There was a new resident here? He never heard anything about that!
Ignoring them, Jimmy turned toward Frank. âAre you alright, Mr. Lawrence?â
Frank nodded. âIâm fine. Iâll be leaving nowâI have something else to do, and Iâm not obliged to waste my time with this lot.â
