Gina was almost sobbing. "It''s over... It''s over... We can''t go back to the main family, can we?"


    Seeing Gina and Helen whispering among each other, Jade promptly asked, "What is it?


    Where''s the drakeroot? Bring it here already!"


    Helen braced herself as she told Jade, "Frank already used the drakeroot."


    "What?!" Jade eximed furiously.


    "It''s alright," Helen quickly said. "I brought Frank himself—he''s a master in medicine, he''ll


    definitely save Luna."


    "Are you kidding me?!" Jade''s face contorted in rage and contempt. "All the healers of


    Southstream couldn''t help Luna, and you''re saying someone in Northstream can? She needs


    the drakeroot!"


    "But it''s gone," Helen said exasperatedly. "Moreover, Frank''s skill in medicine is extraordinary.


    He might be able to help Luna, and it''s more practical than waiting for another drakeroot to be


    found."


    "Why is it gone?!" Jade bellowed as she wheeled on Gina. "You told me you''d definitely get it!"


    "W-Well, we were toote," Gina murmured awkwardly. "And Frank used it."


    "You wretches! You lied to me!" Jade snapped, feeling tricked right then.


    Hali King, the chief of Riverton City Hospital, frowned just then. "Mrs. Lane, it''s not like there''s a


    shortage of talented men here in Northstream. And I''ve personally witnessed Frank''s skill in medicine—


    he really is special, and he just might be able to help your daughter."


    Gina quickly added, "Exactly! Frank is my former son-inw, so I would know. His skill in medicine is


    divine!"


    It was the first time Gina praised Frank in any way.

    Not only was it insincere, but it was just to avoid any further k from Jade.


    Even if Frank failed to save Luna, that was his problem—her family would have nothing to do with it.


    Jade nced between Gina, Hali, and Helen in turn.


    Still, since Hali had spoken, she had to give in for the time being, "Fine. I''ll let him try out of respect for


    Mr. King. If that fails, none of you are returning to the main family."


    Helen breathed a sigh of relief and hurried outside to bring Frank in, not forgetting to ask, "Are you


    confident about this?"


    "I can''t tell until I actually see her."


    "Fair enough " Helen sighed and led Frank into the ward.


    However, as soon as they stepped in, Jade and Luna were gaping at Frank as they snapped, "You?!"


    Helen and Gina were both left dumbstruck.


    "You know each other...?"


    "I would recognize him even if he rotted into pieces!" Jade bellowed. "He was the one who


    refused to help my daughter when we had an ident. He even assaulted me and incited the


    onlookers against me!"


    "What?!" Gina turned pale—she certainly did not expect that!


    She promptly red at Frank. "Why are you just standing there?! Apologize already!"


    "Why should I?" Frank growled icily. "She crashed her car into a motorcyclist and hurt my


    friend. She should be apologizing to my friend instead."


    Gina almost suffered a stroke right then. "Are you crazy? She''s Jade Zahn, a member of our


    main family! You can''t afford to provoke them!"


    Frank snorted. "What, are the Lanes of Southstream above question?"
