The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 1655

Nonetheless, Frank ignored Kairo and turned toward Mole, demanding loudly, "Are we starting the second trial or not?"

"Well…"

Mole turned toward Yosil, since this was an unprecedented case.

Yosil was staring at Frank in turn, seeing the determination and composure in his eyes, devoid of panic or fear.

Yosil's expression turned cool, projecting such a terrible presence that it left Mole flinching.

"N-No…"

Mole leveled a troubled look at Frank before pointing at the herbs and cauldrons that the Kornac's Keep apprentices brought. "The second trial begins now! Participants, you now have one hour to concoct an antidote in an hour to counteract the poison plaguing you… or you will die!"

The participants all felt a chill running down their spine when they heard the word 'die'.

Still, most of them also turned simultaneously toward the man who was poisoned the worst, because he was forced to play fair.

"Hmph. You dug your own grave. You don't get to blame anyone!"

Kairo snorted, perceiving Frank's cold shoulder to be an insult to himself.
