The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu
Chapter 1216

Gina's face fell as soon as she saw Peter, and she bellowed, "You prick! The audacity you have to show your face here!"

Peter had certainly taken her for a ride. Indeed, it would have been very terrible if Frank did not end up as the sucker buying that rotten plot of land off Gina's hands in the end. Being chased around by loan sharks and losing Lane Manor? The very thought left Gina cringing.

She was certainly shaking with rage even as she glared at the culprit and pointed at Peter's nose as she snapped, "You despicable sack of shit! Were you trying to get your own mom killed?! And you still have the cheek to come here?!"

"Come on, Mom. That's too much." Peter scratched his head and smiled apologetically.

He tried to put the bouquets he bought on Gina's overbed table, but she swiped them away, sending everything to the floor as she bellowed, "Get out! I don't want to see you! I have no son-not one who tries to screw over his own mother!"

Peter's face fell, but remembering how much that land was worth now, he repressed his rage and put on a smile. "What are you saying, Mom? I came to apologize, didn't I? I'm sorry just calm down and forgive me for this once!"

As Peter tugged on her, pleading endlessly, Gina snorted but she clearly calmed down.

Peter was her son in the end-blood did run thicker than water even if he had indeed screwed her over.

When everything was said and done, disowning him was still difficult.

"What?" She huffed. "Are you trying to screw me over again? I'm telling you-I don't even have a penny to my name, so give it up!"

Despite her blunt outburst, Peter

was smiling even as he threw his hands up. "What are you saying? I admit I did lie to you before, but that's because it was urgent! See? I've now been acknowledged by Jameson Group's deputy CEO and I can turn things around!"

"Turn things around?" Gina looked at him sideways-how was he going to do that?

Peter continued, "Mom, the first reason I came is to apologize. I'm sorry for lying to you, and I hope you can forgive me."

"As for the second reason... It's because I want to make amends and buy back that plot of land. Don't worry I'll pay you the exact amount you paid to buy it. You won't lose anything." Gina appeared delighted right then, though she snorted. "Hmph. I guess you still have a conscience."

Peter was delighted as well. However, he was only celebrating his mother's lack of instincts and competence for business, as she was somehow completely oblivious. to the vital news of Zamri's new highway project and the revised projected value of that plot of land.

Either way, the land was as good as rebought, and he would not return to Kit empty handed.

Even as he reeled in delight, he decided to seal the deal as soon as possible and quickly asked, "Then, shall we sign an agreement now?"

Seeing that her son was finally shaping up, Gina's gloom was vaporized into bliss.

However, there was a skepticism in her expression despite her mild manners as she asked, "Wait, Peter. I'd like to know what your position is at the moment?"

It was clear that she was worried

about being conned again, but Peter

put a hand on his chest and

disarmed her right then, "I'm now the secretary of Zomber Group's CEO, and I draw a decent salary. You won't lose anything if you stick with me-I'll foot your bills, and you won't have to suffer Helen's attitude anymore!" sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
