The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 2409

"What?!"

The archaeological exploration team were left further confused and were shocked as Sylvie restrained her rage and told them everything. "What?!"

They knew Ernest had a fight with Sylvie but did not expect the bastard to attempt murder!

"It's all our fault, chief!"

They all promptly apologized, since Sylvie would really have gotten killed.

Sylvie gave them a thorough dressing down, before wheeling on Paula Radach, her deputy. "Forget Ernest Lane—what do you think you're doing?"

Paula appeared apologetic. "Sorry. Ernest told us that some officials were asking for us, so—"

"You're fired!" Sylvie snapped icily.

"Wait!" Paula exclaimed, flustered. "I shouldn't have believed a bastard like Ernest, but this is an understandable mistake, right?!"

The rest of the archaeological exploration team agreed. "Exactly. There are plenty of reasons that this happened at all—you should give her a chance."

Sylvie, however, laughed icily. "Give her a chance? Then who's giving me a chance? Also, you claim it's some officials asking for you—why would they try to reach you through the son of a construction team's superintendent?!

"Even if they didn't have your number, they would just go to you personally. Why would they ask you to come here instead?! Do you really think I can't tell what you're planning?"

Sylvie was not that naive—Paula clearly wanted to replace her, which was why she turned a blind eye to Ernest's antics despite knowing what he was up to.

It was certainly a cunning plan, but it just did not work out for Paula. After all, she did not expect Frank's power to increase exponentially and beyond human comprehension.
