The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 355

Robert frowned, caught off guard that Frank had pushed Flying Sword Sect that far.

Even so, he braced himself and said, "Mr. Yaffe, would you mind doing me a favor and let Mr. Lawrence live?"

Kuno wheeled on him with a cool glare. "Let him live? No, governor, I'm doing you a favor by talking to you right now. And you want him to live? No chance."

Robert chuckled. "I get it, I get it… However, Mr. Lawrence isn't as unimportant as most would think—you're going to pay if you really do kill him. That includes the Turnbulls, Flora Hall, my family, Skyblade Dojo, Gerald Simmons… there are plenty of people who owe Mr. Lawrence. I'm afraid they would have a few things to say if you do kill him."

Kuno frowned. "Are you threatening me?"

"No, you misunderstand…" Robert quickly threw up his hands. "I'm just offering a simple suggestion—let's settle this the old-fashioned way with a duel. It's the fairest manner of judgment… What do you think?"

Kuno studied Robert for a moment, and then glanced at his apprentices.

He pondered to himself, aware that Robert would protect Frank even if it kills him if he refused the duel.

"In that case, I shall entertain your request," he said. "But on one condition."

Robert's eyes lit up. "Do tell, Mr. Yaffe."

In Robert's mind, Frank had the most chance of winning a one-on-one duel. Otherwise, he would never win if the Flying Sword Sect apprentices attacked him all at once.

"This will be a duel to the death," Kuno said and turned to glare coldly at Frank. "Do you have the balls, kiddo?"

In his mind, he was more than a match for Frank, even if he had to close his eyes. If anything, killing the bastard on the ring worked for him too!

Frank laughed coolly in turn. "Hmm. Why not? Although the chief of Flying Sword Sect would be humiliated soon enough."

"Quit running your mouth, boy," Kuno snapped viciously. "I'll show you the humility of defeat today!"

Turning toward Robert again, he added, "Mr. Quill, you're the one who suggested the duel—be our witness. If anyone dares flee, you'll execute them on the spot."

"Oh… Of course," Robert replied, sweating over his brow—Kuno was dead serious!
