The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage

Chris chuckled. “Oh, it’s nothing. It’s no big deal at all.”

Henry and Frank entered just then, and Helen quickly told Henry, “You have nothing to worry about now, Grandpa. The sanctions against us have been lifted.”

‘Really?” Henry did a double take and quickly realized that Frank did it since he was just on his phone. “Well, we really owe Frank for that.”

Frank nodded–it seemed that Donald had caved, and Viola would soon be here to apologize to Helen.

Gina, however, snorted in disdain. “Him? What does it have to do with him? It’s all thanks to Mr. Steiner that the sanctions were lifted!”

“Impossible,” Henry retorted. “Frank was on his phone just now, and the sanctions were lifted soon after.”

“Haha!” Peter laughed as he pointed at Frank. “He made a phone call, and it’s done? Who did he call, Donald Salazar? Who does he think he is?”

“Exactly.” Chris laughed. “What are you going to say next, that the Salazars would come to apologize now?”

“What if I do?” Frank replied flatly.

“Hah! All you can do is boast, lowlife.” Gina snorted.

That was when a servant rushed inside. “Mr. Lane, Ms. Lane… Alfredo, the butler of the Salazars, is asking to see you.”

“What?!”

Everyone was shocked, with Gina getting frantic since she feared the Salazars,

“Why did they come?” she cried. “Are they here to finish the job?”

Peter turned to Chris right then. “M–Mr. Steiner, what should we do?”

Chris gulped–he could not show his face at this time!

“Oh, actually, I think you should go see them. I’m staying here, but I’ll be ready to help if anything happens,” he said very softly.

“Why is everyone panicking? The Salazars have come, and so be it. They’re surely not that unreasonable,” Helen said and slowly rose to her feet, her gaze fearless.

“They’re here to apologize,” Frank said just then.

“Shut up!” Gina promptly snapped at him. “Apologize?! How delusional can you get?”

Helen, however, started toward the door, and the rest of the family had no choice but to follow

except Chris, who hid in a corner, afraid to show his face.

Walking up to Alfredo, Helen greeted him. “Good day, Mr. Alfredo. I apologize for the lack of

hospitality despite having you travel all this way.”

“It’s perfectly fine, Ms. Lane,” Alfredo replied, perfectly polite if only because Helen was the key to saving Viola.

Helen turned and saw Viola just then, and she did a double take.

It was the same Viola. But while she beat Helen to an inch of her life yesterday, she appeared to be almost dying now…

“To what do we owe the pleasure?” Helen asked tentatively just then.

“I represent the Salazar family in apologizing to you, Ms. Lane,” Alfredo said. “I’m afraid Ms. Salazar had been a little rash yesterday, on top of having a misunderstanding. As such, we’ve come expressly to apologize and ask for your forgiveness.”

Helen’s eyes bulged, hardly able to believe her ears–they had really come to apologize?!
