The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 1572

On the other hand, if Ashley decided to lie, she would have to suffer Frank's wrath.

And that meant…

Ashely flinched even as she saw the headless corpse in the distance—talk about a terrifying precedent!

She threw all caution into the wind right then. The family business was important, but not as important as her life!

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lawrence!" she yelled as the crowd looked on. "I brought you the wrong suit—"

"Hmm? The wrong suit, you say?" Frank's eyes turned cool. "I told you to be honest, didn't I?"

Ashley flinched from Frank's looming presence and quickly corrected herself. "No, no, no… It was all me… I wanted to make a quick buck, so I brought you a cheap knock-off suit! It's all on me, and I regret my actions!"

With that, she started begging panickedly, "I was blind and ignorant! Please, just let me go—I'll return your money!"

Frank was relieved to hear that, and stood up, looking down at Ashley as he asked, "And how much did I pay you?"

"O-One million! That's how much you paid me… I'll wire it back to you right now! I'm so sorry, I deserve this…"

With that, Ashley burst into tears, leaving the crowd silent—especially Ilsa, who stood just outside the circle around Frank and his daughter.

She was staring blankly at Ashley, as it turned out the knockoff suit she mocked Frank for was sold by her own daughter.

Earlier, she was flustered, worried that Frank was going to kill her daughter, ready to rush up to fight Frank even if it meant dying.

Now, however, she was only profoundly worried that the crowd would realize that Ashley was her daughter.

After all, they were all there when Ilsa mocked Frank so harshly.
