The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage

If Frank’s present was not valuable, Zeb was definitely going to mock him for it.

As such, Winter said, “Uh… It’s fine. I’ll open it when I get home.”

Behind Zeb, a boy who had dyed his hair pale blond, quickly said, “Come on, Winter. I heard the man drives a Maybach–that present would at least be worth a hundred grand, don’t you think?”

Naturally, Blondie was Zeb’s lackey and was obviously trying to mess with Frank despite his flattery,

Zeb in turn chuckled. “A hundred grand? Are you belittling Mr. Lawrence now? The Cartier watch I bought for Winter is worth the same. Surely Mr. Lawrence’s present is worth twice as much.”

“That’s true.”

In reality, they were all just university students, and a present as expensive as that was more than enough. Zeb’s watch was already an oddity.

Aria was eager to see if Frank was generous too. “Exactly, Winter. Open it already. I’m curious!

Winter was actually fairly patient, but everyone was getting on her nerves.

On the other hand, Frank was simply amused by Zeb and Blondie’s obvious sarcasm. Still, it was natural that kids who had never worked an honest day in their lives would be so competitive.

“Since they’re all eager to see it, you should open it,” Frank replied with a smile.

“Alright.” Winter bit her lip and gently opened the box to find that necklace laying in the

“My goodness… Is that a phoenix?” she exclaimed, seeing the lifelike sculpting.

“It’s almost like it’s alive!” Jean gaped.

“Yeah, the sculpting is really wonderful… Thank you, Mr. Lawrence. I really like it,” Winter said as she gingerly took it out.

“As long as you like it.” Frank smiled.

“How much is it, Mr. Lawrence?” Aria couldn’t resist asking the most important question right then.

“Twenty million,” Frank said nonchalantly.

“T–twenty Million?!” Winter’s heart skipped a beat, her fingers flinching and almost dropping the necklace.

Frank caught it with his incredible reflexes and passed it back to Winter. “Be careful.” “Twenty million? For real?”

“You’re kidding. Twenty million for that little piece of rock?”

Behind Winter, her friends were stunned and whispering among themselves, having no ideal how it felt to have that much money.

Naturally, everyone including Aria could not believe that a rock was worth that much either.

Winter was afraid to receive it, however. “Y–You should take it back, Mr. Lawrence. That’s too expensive for me.”

Frank smiled. “It’s a gift for you, and twenty million is really nothing to me.”

Aria gasped beside her.

“Oh, Winter just take it. It’s Mr. Lawrence’s sincerity,” she said, before turning towards Frank, batting her eyelashes at him endlessly. “It’s my birthday next month, Mr. Lawrence. You’re invited too.”

Frank smiled. “Sure.”

Jean did a double take. “Your birthday isn’t next month.”

“Shut it,” Aria snapped, cutting her short.

Nonetheless, Zeb strode up just then, clicking his tongue, “Tut, tut. Do you take us for fools, Frank? Is that little pebble really worth twenty million?”

“Yeah! It’s just some necklace from a dollar store, no?” Blondie joined in.
