The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 2642

Frank shook his head. "It's nothing that complicated. To put it in video game terms, it's both active and passive. I can recognize noise and stink but also shut it off from my mind—like military headsets, it filters out everything and only provides necessary information."

Janice realized with a start. "That means you're much stronger than the average person. If my grandpa knew, he'd be so excited that he could get out of bed."

"Is he ill?"

"Yeah, or I wouldn't have tried to buy the lunarise root from you."

Frank nodded. "Partnership notwithstanding, I'll try to help your grandfather—but on condition that he comes to Shagan."

Janice nodded. "I know—you can't leave Shagan!"

Someone entered just as he finished.

It was a woman in a black dress. Looking around her forties and with a slender figure, she clearly still retained her charm, with her fair skin and bright eyes!

Janice's eyes lit up as she greeted the woman excitedly. "What brings you here, Aunt Myra?"

Myra Zahn smiled. "Why, is there a reason I shouldn't be here? You've really grown up now, little lady—even contributing to the family, I see. I naturally have to see this for myself."

Turning toward Frank, she asked, "Could you be Lugh Frankton, the chief of Mystic Sky Guild?

"Not bad, kid. I've met plenty of handsome men in my time, but this is the first time I've encountered someone as handsome as you. Should you ever come around and decide you'd like to be a sugar baby, come to me anytime. I'm always available!"
