The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 497

Frank murmured, "Good men shouldn't die like that."

"Yeah." Vicky sighed, pausing as she remembered something else. "What about Helen? Does she know her mother kidnapped Winter?"

"I don't know." Frank shook his head.

"I see…" Vicky murmured and got up to give him a gentle peck on the forehead, tousling his hair as she said, "As the CEO of Grande Pharma, I'm ordering you to take the week off—after that, you must come to work looking spirited."

"Heh…" Frank chuckled bitterly. "Thank you."

"Caring for employees' health is a CEO's responsibility. Anyway, just call me if anything comes up." Vicky smiled at him and started to leave the room.

However, she opened the door to find that Winter had been eavesdropping.

Leveling a cheeky smile at Winter, she asked, "What were you doing?"

Winter blushed right then and quickly threw up her hands. "N-Nothing! I was just going to call you for breakfast… Would you rather I bring the soup to your room, Frank?"

She really was a good girl.

Still, Frank got up and shook his head—there was no point in lingering in the past now. "I'll be right over."

Vicky smiled mischievously at Frank in turn, brushing her fingers over lips as she turned to Winter and giggled. "I'm skipping breakfast, Winter. I'm full, after all."

"You're full… Oh!"

A little naive, Winter had to think for a while to realize what Vicky was saying.

Flushing up to her ears right then, she turned and fled!

"Oh, you…" Frank smiled exasperatedly as he watched Vicky tease Winter and left his room.
