Chapter 109
The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage
A smile appeared on Helenâs face as she immediately recovered her previous confidence.
âYouâre even more beautiful than before.â Peter could not help praising her.
âThatâs my daughter for you,â Gina bragged proudly. âSheâs a natural beauty, unlike that whore Vicky.â
Gregy nodded repeatedly beside her. âOf course. You were the most beautiful girl back in our school, so Helen would definitely not fall short.â
He was certainly impressed by Danâs miraculous medicine, just as he was stunned by Helenâs beauty.
Such a shame that he was not younger⦠but there was no rule dictating that old men could not date young!
While Helen was still busy admiring herself, Gina nudged her. âThank Mr. Marsh already, Helen.
Thereâs no telling how long it would take for you to recover if he didnât speak to Dan Zimmer on your behalf.â
Helen bowed in gratitude right then. âThank you, Mr. Marshâ¦â
âOh, itâs no big deal,â Greg quickly helped her up. âWhy donât we have dinner together tonight? Iâll book a private room for us at a hotelâ¦â
âActually, it would have to wait,â Helen said awkwardly. âThe groundbreaking ceremony for the West City Project shall be held tomorrow, and I have to prepare. Allow me to buy you dinner instead.â
Greg did not push the issue since he was aware of Lane Holdingâs joint project with the Turnbulls. âYes, you should go do that we can have dinner another day.
âIâm free tonight, Greg,â Gina said just then. âWhy donât weâ¦.
Greg was suddenly scratching his head. âMaybe another day. Iâm busy tonight as well.â
Gina looked utterly disappointed. âOkayâ¦â
Peter nudged her just then. âTell him, Mom.â
Gina remembered right then and turned back to Greg. âYouâre close with Mr. Zimmer, arenât you?â
cleared his throat and nodded. âOf course.â
Chapterton In reality, he had never even met the man.
However, having already lied once, he had no choice but to keep going at this point.
âIn that case, could you propose for his granddaughterâs hand?â Gina smiled.â Peter here has recently taken a liking to Mr. Zimmerâs granddaughter, and since youâre close with him, you can help us out.â
Greg was left dumbstruck and turned to look at Peter, standing there with a stupid mile on his face.
He actually felt his eyes twitching. Who did that boy think he was? How delusional could these people get? Dan would show him the door before he event breathed a word!
Still, he replied halfâheartedly, âUh⦠I guess Iâll talk to him when I can.â
Peter thought he was agreeing to it and nodded repeatedly in gratitude right then. âThank you, Mr.
Marsh! Iâm counting on you!â
As Greg nodded awkwardly, Helen was frowning nearby.
She knew what her younger brother was.
Even if it would be wonderful Peter could marry the heiress to Flora Hall, would Dan really be interested in such an arrangement?!
The next day, Frank was training when he got a call from Vicky.
âStop pretending to sleep. Iâm downstairs,â she told him.
âIâm training, not sleeping.â
âThen stop training. Donât you know what day it is?â
âWhat day is it?â Frank asked in curiosity.
âThe day of the West City Project groundbreaking ceremony.â Vicky smiled.â Donât you want to see Helen?â
âAhemâ¦â
