Female Novel
Chapter 640
And now, as Jade heard Frank mention his wager with Jon, she knew there was no escape.
She turned toward Gavin for the sake of her son, crying out, "Please! You have to do something!"
If Jon got killed eating dog poo, their family would become the laughing stock of all of Southstream!
Gavin did not want his youngest son to die so miserably too and turned to level an earnest, pleadingnovelbin
look at Frank. "Please, Mr. Lawrence. My son has always been too mischievous—he's just joking to
liven things up. Please be understanding..."
Then, he slapped Jon in front of everyone for his stupidity, snapping, "Apologize to Mr. Lawrence
already!"
The slap actually brought Jon to his senses, and he quickly kowtowed to Frank. "I was just joking, Mr.
Lawrence! I didn't mean to insult you."
"Really?" Frank turned toward Luna, who was on her knees and trembling. "Someone told me you were
a man of sheer will but would like to see me go through with your wager?"
Luna turned pale from Frank's stare and hung her head in silence.
Jade gritted her teeth audibly and hit her head audibly on the floor as she kowtowed twice. "I know
things were unpleasant between us before, Mr. Lawrence. I even spat on your goodwill and doubted
that you saved Luna. Please just spare my children. I'll suffer your wrath in their stead!"
"Mom!" Both Luna and Jade cried, tears welling up in their eyes.
Helen frowned at that and nudged Frank.
"Alright," he said. "I'm not that petty—consider all debts paid. However!"
The Southstream Lanes were all breathing a sigh of relief when Frank said all debts were paid, and
their heart skipped a beat when his tone changed sharply.
"Henry Lane has always wanted to return here, where he belonged," Frank said. "I hope you'll send
your people to bring his casket back here to be reburied."
Then, turning to Jade, Frank said, "Meanwhile, you and your daughter shall return to Northstream and
apologize to the woman you knocked down in your car and pay her threefold the damages."
The Southstream Lanes kept kneeling, listening quietly as Frank listed his demands.
