The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage

Chapter 1816



"Hmph!"

Ms. Quill snorted after listening to Titus but decided to ignore Frank as Titus had advised.

However, she would shoot Frank hostile glares from time to time, her eyes making it clear that she was planning something and that she was not going to let him off easy.

"Frank..." Silverbell appeared a little worried, as judging from Titus' politeness, Ms. Quill was a force to be reckoned with.

Frank, however, remained nonchalant-the young woman was simply uncouth, and he was not concerned about making an enemy of her.

"Hehe... Sorry to keep you waiting."

Mobius spoke in his broken Draconian as he entered from a back door, flashing a broad grin at everyone—especially Frank.

After all, he understood that Frank had the most reason to be upset, since he had invited him here.

While it was clearly a one-on-one trade initially, Mobius had suddenly changed the trade into an auction, and he actually felt a little guilty about that. "Alright, let's get started," Ms. Quill snapped impatiently, stroking her nails. "I still need to hit the nail salon later. I don't have time to waste with stinking men like you."

"Hehe..."

Mobius remained unperturbed by Ms. Quill's haranguing, even chuckling as he brought out the red cloth he showed Frank before.

He unwrapped it again to reveal the snow-white phalange laying in the middle, while turning to watch everyone. "Since Ms. Quill is busy, let's make this quick, as the saying goes."

"I have nothing else to add," Frank said, shaking his head. "As I've mentioned before, I'll trade it for my Bloodcrane Spiritbloom."

"Haha..."

Mobius chuckled again as Frank finished. "This might be impolite, Mr. Lawrence, but would you at least present it? I should at least be allowed to see it, especially when I've presented the spiritron vein, don't you think?"

Frank glanced at Titus, and then at Ms. Quill.

Eventually, he nodded in silence he did bring the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom anyway.

One could not fish without bait, and he knew that Mobius was not stupid enough to understand what was going on if he did not show what he would trade.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

However, while his plan was to trade the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom and then find a way to steal it back, things had certainly changed, and he would have to improvise.

And seeing the flower that was brimming with living energy within the wooden box, Mobius was shaking in anticipation.

Yes, that was exactly what his master wanted!

Snap!

Frank suddenly closed the wooden box he was holding, even before Mobius thought he had a good look.

"I must ask for your understanding," Frank then said quietly to everyone. "I can't expose it too much, or it would lose its medicinal value."

"Oh, that's understandable."

Still, Mobius was no longer doubtful

of Frank's offer now and turned to smile at Titus. "Mr. Lionheart, since you've seen Mr. Lawrence's offer, may ask what you have to trade?"

"Heh..."

Titus glanced at Frank with a triumphant look before saying, "Well, I can say that I can trade you with something much better than the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom... May Kask if you've heard of the Celestial Dew?"

"The Celestial Dew?!"

swn

While everyone did not react to the name, Frank's eyes widened as he lost his composure right then.

It was a treasure of Draconia too, and one that would not lose to the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom!
