"Exactly! We''re above all else," Jade bellowed as she pointed Frank in the nose. "I''m giving you


    a chance to atone right now—apologize to my daughter!"


    Jade was absolutely confident in her family''s authority and was ready to watch Frank apologize


    like a worm...


    However, she underestimated Frank, as he simply sneered. "Apologize to you? Dream on. Hell,


    even having me treat your daughter is delusional."


    "Frank Lawrence! How dare you disrespect my family!" Jade was livid.


    "Forget it, Mom," Luna snapped in her bed. "We don''t need him. There has to be a healer who


    can get me better anyway."


    On the other hand, Hali quickly reasoned, "Please, Mrs. Lane. Just calm down for a moment—


    you have a miracle worker right here, and your daughter will get well right away. And you''re all


    family, right? Why get all upset over some little argument?"


    "Shut up!"


    Hali''s advice only left Jade further incensed. "Family?! With him?! He isn''t family—I won''t let


    him near my house even if he offered to clean our toilets for free!"


    On the other hand, Frank turned to leave, not bothered to stay and argue.


    Helen quickly stopped him, frantically reasoning, "Please, Frank. I know you had a little argument with


    my rtives, and they can be a little too much—but if you seize this chance and treat Luna, they''ll be


    indebted to you!"


    She really hoped that Frank would seize this chance too, convinced that Frank would rise from rags to


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    riches if the Lanes of Southstream gave him even a sliver of their wealth and influence.


    When that happened, not only would she be free from Vicky''s control, but he would also rise to power


    in Riverton. Her family would stop belittling him at that point too!


    However, Frank did not seem to care and even gloated with utter conceit. "Chance? What chance can


    the likes of them provide? Even without them, I''m unstoppable here in Riverton!"


    Suddenly, a group of ck men in uniforms charged into the room.


    The one in the lead demanded, "Which of you is Frank Lawrence?"


    Everyone was left staring in shock at the group of men, who were clearly not average Joes.


    And the way they charged in, ready for violence. Were they after him for revenge?


    However, Frank remained impassive as he stopped forward. "I''m Frank Lawrence. Who are you?"


    "Riverton Precinct. You have been used of murder and grand theft among other charges. You''re


    Two of his men immediately moved behind Frank, pressing a palm over his arms to restrain him.


    Frank frowned as he did the math in no time at all.


    The entire group clearly came prepared—were they friends of the Szars?


    On the other hand, Jade wasughing out loud. "Hahaha! Weren''t you saying that you''re


    unstoppable here in Riverton? It turns out that you''re wanted for murder! Hahaha!"


    Helen was left staring in disbelief.


    In her mind, Frank was just an average Joe—if not a little better looking than the rest. Why


    would he be involved in murder?


    "Officers, is there a mistake here?" she asked.


    "Are you questioning us?" The head officer red at Helen right then.


    Gina promptly pulled Helen behind herself and shed an apologetic smile."Of course not,


    officer. We''d never question you. We knew right away that brat is nothing good, and he has


    nothing to do with us.


    You must question him thoroughly!"
