The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 2369

While Bloody Mary's cult-like approach did not work now, money talks and was way more persuasive than anything else.

"Why should I trust you?" Frank asked nonetheless.

Callie clearly had her own mind on things and was not lovesick like the other ladies around Frank, and she must have her plans in hovering around him.

"What, and you trust her?" Callie asked as she pointed at Moxxi instead of answering Frank's question.

"Don't think I wouldn't snap at you just because you're Mary!"

Moxxi promptly argued, concerned that Frank would doubt her. "I'm on his side, so I'm not afraid of you! Don't lump me with the likes of you or try to drive us apart!"

Calli laughed. "No, we're basically identical! You're as ambitious as I am, but I'm not a gambler and wouldn't bet against trends.

"That being said, Mr. Frankton is exceptional in both wit and wisdom. Even if he isn't going to be the king of the emperor, surely it'd be acceptable to be a major shareholder… Don't you agree, Mr. Frankton?"

Frank actually had to agree on that.

It was also true that one rarely encountered a schemer, as there were always plenty of fence-sitters watching the situation before falling on either side.

"Summon all your people to Shagan," he said. "You will handle the initial round of internal investigation, and Jada the second. We shall only discuss the acquisition of BM Group after that."

"Okay," Callie replied without arguing.

She might have been intimidated into compliance, but whatever the cause might be, Frank was satisfied that Callie was doing anything he said.

Still, there was something Frank did not understand… Could the spiritron vein have demanded that he play nice with BM Group just to bolster the forces of Mystic Sky Guild?

He had no idea but decided not to pry and returned to the yacht with Moxxi.
