The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage

"Master Edon! He's causing trouble on our turf!"

"Yeah! He's out of line!"

"We don't have to tell anyone. Let's teach him a lesson to remember!"

"Silence!"

Edon could certainly tell what happened but did not apologize to Frank.

Instead, he snapped coolly at the Favoni martial artists, "Every guest deserves a proper respect, or people would laugh at us. Now, leave!"

"But, sir..."

"What?!" Edon glared at the Favoni martial artist furiously. "Are you disobeying my orders?!"

Seeing that Edon was not giving ground, the Favoni martial artists could only leave, though not without shooting dirty looks at Frank while they did. Then, Edon turned toward Frank. "Mr. Lawrence, please understand this no matter how you see us, it's still not up to you to lecture our apprentices." And with that, he turned to leave.

Frank could certainly see that Edon did not think highly of him too.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

And now that Abel was here, Frank's offer to cure Jaden Favoni was inconsequential. After all, the Favonis certainly would not believe that Frank was better than Abel, and Frank would come up short anyway if Abel failed too.

Nonetheless, Frank called out to Edon before he could leave, "A moment, please."

Even if he was annoyed with the Favonis, he bottled it for the sake of Abel, his apprentice.

"Tell Abel Loggins not to touch the needles directly," he told Edon quietly. "That poison can quickly transmit through skin contact too."

Thud.

Edon stopped in his tracks, and wheeled on Frank with a look of disdain "Does Abel Loggins need you to tell him what to do? Who do you think you are, ordering him around?"

As he strode off, Frank's gaze turned.

"Hehe... Don't tell me you don't know who Abel Loggins is?"

The two Favoni sentries were scoffing at Frank just then. "That man is the best healer in Morhen, even the East Coast. He's cured more@nusual illnesses than you could imagine, so why don't you take a walk already?"

"Exactly. We'd be throwing you out if not for Master Edon and Master Lubor."

"Just keep your mouth shut already."

Frank listened to their quips and laughed despite himself.

The likes of them, mocking him?

With that in mind, he asked quietly, "Then why don't we make a bet?"

"A bet? What bet?" Both Favoni sentries were immediately wary.

"I bet that Abel Loggins would fail to cure Jaden Favoni, and he'd be on his knees, begging me to save Jaden."

Frank's bet left the two Favoni sentries stunned for a long while.

When they came to their senses, they traded glances and laughed so hard that they were tearing up.
