Chapter 405
The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage
Drake smiled at Vickyâs request. âOf courseâ
Vicky was taken aback that he would accept so easily, just as Drake added, âIf we win, youâll give us all of Grande Pharmaâs shares. Do you have any issues with that?â
âOf course not.â Vicky shook her head. âAnd if we win, you and your family will never harass us as Naturally, weâll welcome you if youâre willing to do business.â
âSure Shall we proceed to the ring?â Drake smiled.
Vicky had already sensed that something was wrong with that enigmatic smile of his but just could not put her finger on what.
Quess she would just have to wait and seeâ¦
Vicky only realized that the Chandlers had invited many bigwigs in Riverton to watch the fight. All of them were staring at the Chandlers and her group as soon as they entered the hall.
âHey, who do you think is going to win?â
âIâm not sure⦠but I hope the Turnbulls do.â
âWhat? What good would come of that?â
âThe Chandlers promised to make public the Rejuvenation Pill recipe once they have it. Weâd be making a killing tooâ¦â
Frankâs ears were sharp enough to hear their discussion, and he was actually surprised and suspicious They had just decided on the spoils for the fight, but the Chandlers had already told them that they would all enjoy the spoils as well?
Even if the Chandlers did invite everyone here, something was still fishyâ¦
âMr. Chandler, whatâs this?â Vicky asked, gesturing at the crowd.
Drake chuckled. âDonât worry, Ms. Turnbull. Theyâre just acting as my witness, in case you lose and try to bail.â
Vicky pursed her lips.
Bail?! There was no telling who would win here!
Either way, they had to win!
On the other hand, Yara was annoyed by Drakeâs words. âThat goes for you too.â
âUs Chandlers losing? Dream on, brat!â Wilf snorted while glaring at her in disdain.
Drake laughed in turn. âItâs good to be confident, girlie. We shall see how you do soon enough.
Î With that, he strode towards the crowd and announced, âWelcome, ladies and gentlemen! Thank you for accepting my invitation to this fight and being our witness! See to it that the defeated does not bail or press any accusations against the victor!â
Drakeâs words were bold and confident, as if the Chandlers were not going to lose.
And when he was finished, Wilf entered the ring.
Drake turned toward Vicky in turn. âWho will you be sending, Ms. Turnbull?â
Vicky glanced at Boran, but Yara said, âThereâs no reason to overdo it, Vicky. I can deal with himâheâs no Drake. We will leave him to Mr. Lepley.â
Vicky thought about it and nodded. âJust be careful.â
Yara nodded and took to the ring.
The crowd was immediately in an uproar.
âWhoa, whoâs the chick?â
âYara Quill, daughter of Rivertonâs governor. Sheâs quite strong.â
âI wonder whoâs betterâher or Wilf?â
âNo idea, but I guess weâll soon find out.â
Wilf was actually surprised that Vicky would send in another woman firstâhe thought they would send Frank at worst!
He snorted in disdain. âHah! You Turnbulls are really making light of me, sending a girl against me!â
âCut the crap,â Yara snapped. âTalk after youâve beaten me!â
âFine. Letâs see what you have.â
