Cliff asked, "Should I call in more people from the capital?"Vicky thought about it. "Nope. The Salazars are nothing as long as we have Frank around."Most importantly, she did not want to ask her uncle's side of the family to send their people. It was a sign of weakness, and she would end up being passive when she returned to the capital."Very well." Cliff nodded and turned silent.-They headed to the hospital and got Cliff the best doctor to mend his bones, while Frank got a deposit of two million dollars.After they left, Vicky asked, "Are you busy at the moment, Mr. Lawrence?"Frank shook his head. "Not particularly.""Why don't we have a drink tonight with the money we collected?" Vicky smiled. "There's a new joint called The Dynasty that just opened in West City. I have a good feeling about the place."Beside them, Yara scratched her head. "My dad's asking me to go home tonight, so I won't be joining."She could tell Vicky only wanted Frank around, so she should not

One of the women with Helen had her fingers crossed and her eyes welling up with tears. "That's right! I'm so jealous, Ms. Lane…"Sean was smiling in turn.With the vibes and the setting, there was no reason for Helen to say no!Pressured by her employees and mother, Helen certainly found herself being washed along by the mood around her.Before she could say yes, however…"Oh, proposing at a bar? How lively!"Helen stiffened at the all-too-familiar voice and looked up to find Vicky, with Frank standing beside her.His expression was ice-cold, and Helen withdrew her hand by instinct!"Frank, no…" she started to explain, only to glance at Vicky and remember that she and Frank were divorced.What was the point of explaining? And yet, she did not want to see Frank with another woman, just as she refused to let Frank see her accept Sean's proposal.Moments they shared together replayed in her mind, and she realized she could not forget the man whom she had lived with for three

Sean was naturally not going to admit that he knew Zuco. After all, he was wary about Vicky and so told Zuco that he just had to chase Vicky and Frank away, since Zuco would be destroyed if Vicky got serious.And yet, Vicky was already folding her arms before her chest fearlessly. "I'm not leaving."Zuco rolled his eyes and waved at his goons. "Take them away."They started toward Vicky, who suddenly picked up a bottle from her table and smashed it on Zuco's head!It shattered resoundingly, leaving glass shards all over the floor as Vicky snorted in disdain. "I leave when I want to. It's not up to a clown like you to tell me what to do!""B-Boss? Are you alright?!"The goons were petrified—the chick had actually smashed a bottle on Zuco's head?! She must have a death wish. "Fuck… I'll kill you!" Zuco clutched his bleeding head and glared viciously at Vicky before lunging at her with his arms outstretched.Frank moved right then, grabbing Zuco's wrist as he growled, "I don't ca

Chad smacked Zuco on the head right then and snapped through gritted teeth, "Quit yapping and go!"With that, he turned to leave, without so much as a glance behind him—he was terrified that Frank would stop him!His goons were all confused, but there was no way to stay when their boss had left!As they quickly followed, Zuco was left pouting, but he turned to glare at Frank."Just you wait!" he snarled before hurrying after Chad.Sean breathed a long sigh of relief right then.Thank goodness they did not start fighting.Still, he turned to find everyone staring at him in shock, with Gina exclaiming in wonder, "I didn't know you were that important, Mr. Wesley…""He's amazing! He could even talk directly to Scarface!""You can't expect anything less from Riverton's number one man! It would be worth living a decade less if I could marry him!"Sean was left scratching his head. "Oh, they were all just being nice!"Even Helen was left in disbelief—not only was Sean important in

Come to think of it, Sean should really thank Gina—he would not have gotten Helen so easily if not for her!However, just as he got into the driver's seat and was about to start the car, Frank suddenly appeared.He opened the door and pulled out his car keys!Sean did a double take, and was incensed when he saw that it was Frank. "Could you stop bothering me for once?!""Where are you taking Helen?" Frank was glowering coolly."That has nothing to do with you!" Sean snapped.Frank glanced at Helen in the backseat just then.She was flailing her hands in the air, while her legs were squeezed together and kicking.She was also mumbling endlessly and unintelligibly—clearly, she had been drugged.Furious, Frank punched Sean in the face! "Did you fucking drug her?!" he bellowed.He would not say a word if Helen was conscious and willing to go with him. However, all he felt was contempt for Sean for sinking this low!"Argh! Fuck you! This is none of your business! Don't you ruin
