The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 515

Burt certainly left Frank mystified. "So, you're saying…?"

Burt flashed an enigmatic smile in turn. "I have a hunch that the Goldeater Cane that Sage Lake Sect took from me has not been made into pills yet. It was no more than a seemingly, and if it wasn't needed urgently, they must keep it nurtured with precious materials to ensure its survival."

"Moreover, I've put two and two together—when Quinn Ocean and Drakon Salazar visited the Salazars recently, their intention was to get married. Sal Ocean, the geezer you've killed, was supposed to officiate the wedding."

Frank's eyes lit up. "That means…"

"Yes. Sage Lake Sect would've given the Goldeater Cane to the Salazars as dowry, and they probably still have it right now."

As Burt broke down the facts, Frank frowned despite feeling hopeful. "The Salazars definitely wouldn't sell me the Goldeater Cane with all the bad blood between us."

"That's for sure." Burt chuckled coolly. "And I would have been disavowed from Sage Lake Sect when Quinn returned to them, so the Salazars wouldn't give it to me either. And if we tried taking it by force, they'd definitely rather destroy it than give it to us."

Burt sighed lengthily as they finally cut to the chase. "My friends in Sage Lake Sect have informed me that they're up to something big in a couple days. Dejan Ocean, their elder, will be coming personally."

Frank narrowed his eyes. "So…?"
