Chapter 1323
Frank remained impassive despite Stella's tearful pleas, snorting. "So? What business of mine is your family's troubles?"
He was not about to change his mind... or he could not, to be precise.
The Favonis were determined to kill him, so he could not just play saint just because Stella was begging him through tears and let Jaden kill him.
Moreover, Stella really was not a looker and lacked charm-even if she did, Frank was not about to fall for it.
"You should save your breath for your father and brother," Frank said shortly.
His principles were always simple-he would keep out of anyone's way, as long as they kept out of his.
However, that only left Stella further pained.
She had already told her father and brother a hundred times over that Frank was above them and was not to be messed with, but they were too prideful to listen.
They even believed that Frank bewitched her.
Moreover, some twentyish youth massacred over thirty Favoni martial artists? If word of that got out, they would be laughed at!
And being a family whose main business is outsourcing security personnel, who would ever trust them again after they found out the truth? Let alone hire their martial artists or bodyguards?
They had to maintain their reputation or their family would be in trouble-even if it meant slandering Frank for being a despicable piece of shit.
Stella could see that much, which was why she was here to beg Frank to spare her brother.
Just then, Blackie returned and reported, "Boss-ahem, I mean, Mr. Lawrence-two other women just arrived!"
"Hmm?" Frank raised a brow.
Before he could ask, Blackie was exclaiming excitedly, "Both of them are beautiful. One's voluptuous, while the other is a feisty maiden."
"Show them in..." Frank waved exasperatedly.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
The exchange left Stella doing a double take.
So after all that fuss, Frank turned out to be all about the looks? Was he refusing her because she was not a looker?
"Tut, tut, tut..."
Even as Stella reached up to touch her own cheeks in reflex, someone clicked her tongue audibly before coming to view.
It was a woman in a red dress that
ened her stunning figure a
long legs, which i

were covered in fishnets.
As she looked around, shaking her head, another girl who had just come of age but was wearing a school uniform appeared beside her.
She glowered and snapped at Stella as soon as she saw her. "Sis?!"
"Hmm."
Frank was frowning.
Even if the pair were easy on the
eyes, he knew right then that then et

Rubbing his temples, he sighed exasperatedly, "What's going on today? Are the Favonis holding a family conference in my mansion?"
On the other hand, Stella was clearly surprised by their presence. "Chelly? Aunt Tara? What are you doing here?"
"Hehe. Our family would be humiliated if we never came." Tara Sachs gloated and pointed at Stella's sleeve with her hand fan.
Stella looked down, and her face fell when she found the bug on her sleeve button!
"We heard everything you said!" Chelly Favoni glowered, pointing at Frank and snapping, "What's your relationship with him?! Why are you betraying our family?!"
"I-I'm not!" Stella grimaced in pain at her own sister's accusation.
