The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage romance Capítulo 2870

Yancy could hardly believe her ears. "Are you serious?"

This was ridiculous.

She and Frank had not broken anything in that apartment unit. Hell, even if they had, nothing in there was worth ten grand!

The entire apartment might not even be worth that much, and the landlord was saying that the things inside were more expensive?

Nonetheless, the landlord flashed a sly smile. "I'm plenty sincere, girl—I'm already giving you a forty percent rebate. I'm not swindling you here!"

Yancy snapped furiously, "You're not swindling? Really? Well, we're not paying you crap!"

She really disliked people like this landlord and could skin them where they stood.

On the other hand, while the landlord was also furious, he knew he should not upset Frank just yet, or it was game over if he did not pay up.

As such, he turned toward Frank instead and asked, "Sir, are you going to pay or not?"

Though Frank was nice, he was not saintly enough to let himself be bullied. "You'd best take back what you said, or I'll make you."

Seeing that there was no grounds for negotiation, the landlord threatened Frank and Yancy right then. "Fine! I don't mind giving it to you straight—I have plenty of friends around these parts. So pay up if you know what's good for you, or you'll soon understand why no one messes with a lion in its turf. Get it?!"

Frank was at once amused. "So you're saying that you don't just want my money, but you'll kill me if I don't pay?"

The landlord certainly had nothing to hide when he already spoke his mind, and he smirked and nodded. "I can't stop you if you want to put it that way!"

She was ready for more violence, but Frank stopped her. "Don't worry. He'll rest in pieces, but not right now!"

Yancy stopped just then, pointing at the landlord as she snapped, "I can spare you for now, but that doesn't mean I'm calm. I'll be wringing the life out of you with my bare hands soon!"

The landlord merely smirked, ignoring Yancy and whipping out his phone to call a certain number. "Drop by right now… Right, and bring more boys along! There's trouble over here, so be prepared. Don't worry—I'll make it worth your while!"

As he finished and hung up, the landlord leered coldly at Frank.

"You can throw a punch, kid—I'll give you that." He smirked. "Anyone would be shocked that you're that strong despite that scrawny form. But sadly for you, that isn't everything—you'll soon understand what it means to have absolute power!"

Yancy was unsure if she should laugh or cry. "Absolute power? Who do you think you are to spout such words?"
