The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage

Gina's face turned pale at the crowd's contempt, and she wobbled like she could pass out in an instant.

Meanwhile, her old classmates were still pestering her.

"Gina, word of advice since we go way back-does your daughter really have trouble finding a better man, being as rich and successful as she is?" "But she had to pick him. Goodness..."

"Old classmates? Stop it already. Rub her son-in-law the wrong way once and you're dead."

"Sheesh, that's just brutal."

"Yeah. Let's not keep in touch, Gina-never, ever."

"Exactly. You stay in your lane from now on, Gina. We're afraid of you now."

Ilsa quickly added fuel to the fire as well. "Oh, Gina... I know we have our disagreements, but Theo's my only son. I'd rather not have you send your son-in-law after him."

Beside her, Theo chuckled coolly. "Well, I wouldn't mind letting him take a shot if he thinks he can do it."

insistent on getting violent.

"I kept putting up with it-there were even two security guards who tried to talk them out of it, only to get beaten up. So you're saying I should just stand there and let them kill me?!"

Just as Frank finished, Hardy fired

back despite his tears, "You're lying! Everything you said is slander, and an excuse you're giving for murdering my son! And there's no way my son can defend himself now that he's dead... Moreover, my son was always so kind and virtuous! How could he call up gangster friends?! You're lying through your teeth!"
