The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu
Chapter 589

Before Vicky could answer Kiki, Corey was on his feet.

Leveling a cool look at Frank, he said bluntly, "You have nothing to fear as long as I'm around, Kiki. You know that you can't count on someone, and there's every chance he's more a performer than a real martial artist. I've seen too many people like him."

Naturally, he was referring to Frank, but Frank simply snorted and kept eating his dinner, ignoring Corey completely.

On the other hand, Vicky appeared worried that Frank would get upset and moved between him and Corey's glare of disdain. "I chose him personally, and his abilities are above question.”

"Alright, alright... Why are we fighting again?" Ivana quickly tried to keep the peace this time. "Hmph. That's a certain someone's fault for bringing in someone else who has no business being here.” Olive Perkins sneered, folding her arms before her chest.

"Why don't you just cut it out? Haven't you had enough?" Ivana snapped, a little annoyed at that point.

Olive simply snorted coolly and rolled her eyes.

Everyone in this hall was rich or important in Riverton, but Olive always seemed to have a problem with Vicky. Still, she certainly had cause for that—not only was Vicky more beautiful, but her career was also a class above Olive's.

"It's okay," Kiki spoke up just then. "Anyway, I've been having trouble lately, and I need a really strong bodyguard. Since Frank is Vicky's bodyguard, I'm sure he must be really good—"

"Really? I couldn't tell.” Corey snorted, pursuing his lips. "Don’t pin your hopes on the wrong man, Kiki. You'd be in deep trouble if a scandal happens as a result.”

He was clearly still upset with Frank.

Suddenly, the doors to the banquet hall were kicked open violently, and everyone turned to find around six men in black striding inside.

One of them even threw a waiter on the floor, who was unconscious and bleeding from his head. "What's the meaning of this?!" Corey demanded, realizing right away that the men in black were hostile and leaping to Vicky's defense right then.

On the other hand, Kiki appeared stunned to see those men, and her gaze was suddenly evasive in clear terror.

That was when a youth with a pale face and a giddy gaze entered.

He looked around, and when he found Kiki cringing in an inconspicuous spot, he laughed icily. "Oh, Ms. Moss... don't you think you're disrespecting me, running here alone to Riverton? Don't tell me that you thought you could escape me?"

"Who are you?" Vicky stood up, glaring coolly at the youth.

Kiki was a good friend of hers, and they had always kept in touch despite barely meeting up after graduating college.

In fact, Kiki came to Riverton to seek refuge from Vicky, which was why she chose Frank without hesitation instead of Corey whom she was more familiar with.

Despite being a personality, she was no fool. She knew enough to understand that Vicky had cause to vouch for Frank.

In fact, Vicky had brought Frank to this reunion party because of Kiki.
