Chapter 321
The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage
Everyone aside from Dan stopped smiling when they saw Frankâwas he not the same brat. that they had just chased away?!
Dan did not notice the reaction of either side, however, and hurried to Frank. âAllow me to introduce you to Eron White of Southdam. His family and friends are here to ask you to treat his daughterâshould you do so, the Earthen Dragonheart is yours.â
Frank chuckled flatly. âYou donât have to introduce them. We are already acquainted.â
âOh, is that so?â Dan was quite surprised. âThatâs great!â
Kuno strode up right then, demanding, âAre you sure about this, Mr. Zimmer? Youâre saying that this kid can help Kim?â
Dan nodded in assurance. âOf course. Mr. Lawrenceâs medical knowledge is divineâIâm absolutely in awe, to say the least.â
Everyone gaspedâthe way Dan spoke of Frank was no different from Hali!
One was the chief of Riverton City Hospital, while the other was the owner of Flora Hall, and both of them were thoroughly impressed by Frankâs medical knowledge! Even if Frank actually knew nothing, anyone could be convinced of his greatness with such acclaim!
Eron was certainly regretting being so dismissive of Frank earlier.
He hurried up to Frank, apologizing, âIâm so sorry for what happened before, Mr. Lawrence. Please donât take offense over this.â
Frank shruggedâit was no skin off his back.
But while he was not going to charge them before, he would now.
âItâs nothing. Itâs normal that youâd doubt me,â he said flatly.
Eron breathed a sigh of relief. âYou are truly magnanimous. Please help my daughter right away.â
He could not care less about what Frank would do to treat Kim nowânot after Dan himself threw in the towel.
If this continued, Kim would actually die!
Nonetheless, Frank said slowly, âThereâs no rush. I heard that you possess an Earthen Dragonheart?â
âUh⦠Yes.â Eron nodded.
âGive it to me now, and then Iâll treat your daughter.â Frank stated his conditions right then.
Kuno frowned right then. âWe can apologize for belittling you before, Mr. Lawrence, but you can forget about the Earthen Dragonheart. To you, Ms. Whiteâs condition was no more than a trifle, and you didnât intend to charge us before.â
However, what actually worried Kuno more was that he would never get the Earthen Dragonheart if Frank took it!
Frank simply smiled. âI didnât intend to charge before, but thatâs not the case now. If my condition canât be met, then forget it.â
With that, he turned to leave.
Dan promptly tugged at Eron in response. âWhat are you doing, Mr. White? Werenât you saying you would give anything for your daughter to get better? This isnât the time to fret over a mere herb!â
Hearing that, Eron quickly said, âMr Lawrence, itâs not that Iâm refusing to give it to you, but the Earthen Dragonheart is being kept at my family manor in Southdam. I came to Riverton in a hurry, so I didnât think to bring it along. Why donât you help my daughter first, and Iâll have the Earthen Dragonheart delivered here tomorrow.â
Frank frowned. âAre you asking me to take an IOU?â
âUhâ¦â
Eron pursed his lips. âNot reallyâthink of it as a real agreement. Moreover, my family business is vast and thereâs no way we can run. You donât have to worry about us reneging on this agreementâ¦â
As Frank narrowed his eyes in thought, Dan thought that they had come so close, it would be a waste to fail now.
Walking up to Frank, he reasoned, âMr. Lawrence, this could work. Moreover, the Five Elemental Wonders are too rare that thereâs no telling when youâd get another if you missed this. Moreover, Eron would be grateful after you save his daughterâs life.â
Frank nodded, understanding the reasoningâand treating Kim was as easy as turning his palm anyway.
âIn that case, I can agree to this out of respect for Mr. Zimmer.â
