The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 444

Luna chimed in, "You must find him, Mom. I'll make him suffer for disrespecting our family."

Gina quickly assured them, "Don't worry, Luna. Anyone who disrespects you is disrespecting us—I will definitely avenge you."

Jade studied Gina just then. "Does your family have that much influence? The bastard was quite pompous and probably was well-connected himself."

Gina quickly smiled, not one to be put down. "We do have some influence here in Riverton. Oh, and I forgot—Helen here is partnered with the Turnbull family. Y'know, one of the top families in the capital."

"Really? I guess you don't amount to nothing." Jade snorted haughtily, still dismissive towards Gina's family. "By the way, have you heard about the Fielden family's hundred-year old drakeroot?"

"Of course." Gina quickly nodded, although she had also heard that it was a family heirloom for the Fieldens.

"That's why I've come to Riverton—to get the drakeroot and cure Luna's illness," Jade said nonchalantly. "I would also be checking if you Northstream Lanes have what it takes to be received back to the main family."

After all, Henry had not inherited anything from his family—he came alone to Northstream to build something for himself as soon as he reached adulthood. Though he did not succeed, he still managed to create a legacy.

Nonetheless, his eldest brother Mark had fallen ill recently, and Mark expressed hopes for Henry to be brought back to the family.

Gina nodded repeatedly in turn. "Don't worry, Jade. We're family—your troubles are ours. We will also do our best to buy the drakeroot for you."

"Mom…" Helen was going to warn his mom to think before she made promises.

The drakeroot was the Fieldens' heirloom, and they would never sell it easily—Gina might even end up offending both Jade and the Fieldens if things went south!

However, Gina shot Helen a glare, warning her to stay out of this.

On the other hand, Jade was nodding in approval.
