The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 896

With those words, Frank laughed coolly and started to leave.

"Wait… Please wait!" George cried out in anguish, dropping out of bed with a thud as he crawled toward Frank. "Please, you have to help me! I don't want to die… Not like that!"

His cries left Kendra panicking. She rushed up and grabbed her son by the arm as she begged, "Oh, just let him meet Vicky! It's really no big deal!"

"It's not as simple as you'd like to think, Mother!"

Glen explained even as he struggled out of her grasp, his cheeks heating up like a kettle, "You know Vicky's temper—if he sees her and she decides to leave with him, do you think we can stop them? I had to go through great lengths just to convince her to accept the family's arrangement. What if she regrets it once she sees him?"

Sighing, he added, "And don't forget that Titus is still outside. Do you think we can hide this from him? What would he think of us if he finds out? It's going to be a crisis!"

"B-But…"

Kendra was dumbstruck. "But we can't let your father suffer and die in agony! Is there no other way?"

"Trust me, I've tried," Glen replied, deflated. "The Lionhearts even brought in a foreign professor, and we know how that went. Who can we count on now?"

"The way I see it…"

Glen turned toward his father who crawled up to the doorway, his eyes flashing with determination. "Father will just have to take this one for the family!"

"Glen!!!" Kendra screamed—she could hear Glen's determination, and her fingers clawed into his arm as she tried to stop him. "That's your father you're talking about! How could you just watch him die! No… This won't do!"
