The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 1263

"What?!"

Hugh turned in shock toward Amber, the woman at his side.

He found her at a nightclub, and she said she needed the job and had no choice. The reason was that her family circumstances were tragic—her father was a gambler, her mother walked out on them, and she had two brothers who were still in school

Naturally, Hugh did not believe Amber, but he still did not mind keeping her around for his amusement over a few days with her pretty face. It naturally shocked him that Frank said she was sick, and he was at once unsettled.

Amber was panicking after what Frank said too, as everyone was now watching her and Hugh after what Frank said.

Still, her first response was to snap at Frank. "That's bullshit! You're the one who's sick!"

Frank simply chuckled coolly. "Hehe, I can tell right away if there's something wrong with you—I'm the one who cured Gene Pearce, after all. You really don't have to question my abilities."

The hall was left in an uproar right then.

"What?! He cured Gene Pearce?!"

"Wait, he's the one who saved Gene Pearce? The one Gene Pearce himself spoke of?"

"No way, he's too young. And Gene said that man practices Draconia traditional Medicine."

The crowd remained skeptical, since Frank was just too young.

Hugh was in turn scowling as he shouted, "Don't believe him, everyone. He's just a sugar baby of my family and spewing nonsense. He doesn't know medicine at all! Even if he did and saved Gene Pearce, why wouldn't he have an invitation, and why were the security guards ready to chase him away?!"
