Chapter 1179

Author: Chu
After everyone cursed Peter out for a while, Helen brought the conversation back on track. "Mom, how did you get hurt?"

Cindy shrugged and said quietly, "Aunt Gina couldn't find Peter or Larry, so she went to Zomber Group to demand her money back. They refused since she had signed an agreement, so she started arguing, and there was a little scuffle and she hit her head on the wall."

"Mom… You've really messed up big time!" Helen sighed, knowing that the fault was not entirely on Gina.

Her baby boy was just too heinous, tricking his own mother and then doing the same to his sister, even selling off his own sister for money.

One could only say that he was as brazen as he was heinous.

Helen frowned. "Calm down, Mom. Just tell me—how much money did you lose? I'll see if I can help pay it off."

Gina opened her mouth but turned to Cindy since she was too embarrassed to say it.

"This much," Cindy said, spreading her palm.

"Fifty million?"

Helen was taken aback, but took a deep breath

    Gina had no comeback against Helen's outburst and leapt out of bed, rushing to the wall and slamming her head on it, howling as she did. "Oh, Helen! I'm so sorry… I had no choice… I'll just die to make up to you—"In just a couple of bangs, she was bleeding freely into her bandages.However, Helen caught her and snapped, "Stop! I can't pay up if you die here! You'd better think of something to get the money back! Call Peter and tell him to come over right now!""O-Okay…" Gina picked up her phone and quickly called Peter's number, only for Peter to hang up after it rang a little."What? What's going on?" Gina exclaimed in surprise.At the same time, Helen turned toward Frank—could Kit Jameson have taken Peter already?"I'll call him." Frank went over to Gina, got Peter's number from her, and called.Peter answered after two rings, his tone neutral. "Hello?""Come to the hospital right now, Peter," Frank ordered."Oh, that's interesting. And why should I listen to you?""Hmm?"

    "That's right!"Gina smacked herself on the forehead after hearing Cindy's suggestion, exclaiming in realization, "Why didn't I think of that? You're so smart, Cindy!""That's for sure, but…"Cindy snorted, casting a brief glance at Helen while pouting. "Someone just doesn't see it."Helen was certainly aware Cindy meant her but did not bother to get petty, saying solemnly, "It's not going to work. Anyone who has that much money to waste would be smart—the land won't be that appealing even as bait."Cindy simply giggled coolly, not bothered that she was causing trouble. "Oh, so you're suggesting that Aunt Gina isn't smart? Talk about being veiled insults!" Gina scowled at that—even if she was wrong to believe Peter, it still upset her that her daughter would insult her like this."That's not what I mean, Mom…"Helen sighed, shaking her head as she found no strength to explain herself. "Whatever. Just do what you like, but I don't think anyone would be willing to take that land

    "Frank's not interested."Helen immediately stood between Gina and Frank, staring fixedly at her mother as she snapped, "I know what you're planning to do, but you made your bed, so sleep on it. Don't think about dragging Frank into your mess!""Why do you always side with others?!" Gina snapped at her in frustration. "I would be dead if I can't sell that land! Shouldn't Frank do something if he wants to marry my daughter?!""Frank gave you a ruby, but you had to lose it!" Helen retorted, mentioning old grudges as she refused to let her family bother Frank. "That's… different!" Gina retorted, clearly lacking confidence but soon steeling herself and snapping, "We lost the ruby, but that's in the past! You're my daughter, and your position is different now as you control both Lane Holdings and Lanecorp. That's not to mention there's that luxurious farm resort making you millions everyday! Shouldn't Frank pay a dowry if he wants to marry my daughter?!"Despite Gina's obvious inflati

    Gina was certainly worried that Frank would change his mind, and all her fawning smile and cajoling over the past half hour would end up pointless.However, she was obviously worried over nothing since Frank really would not care about a mere 500 million dollars.In fact, he called Trevor Zurich right away, asking him to wire the money to Gina's account and sign his name on the agreement.Helen was scowling grumpily once he was done, while Gina beamed."Oh, Frank," she chirped. "Why don't you stay for the day? I'll treat you and Helen to dinner.""That's unnecessary," Frank replied quietly, shaking his head. "I'll be surveying the land and see if there's any use for it, so that I won't lose too much money."Frank's reply was sincere, just as Gina received a notification from the bank.Gina was hugely relieved to see that and was immediately less enthusiastic than before.In fact, she was laying down in bed and closing her eyes. "Alright, I won't keep you since you want to surve

    Cold disappointment gripped Helen's heart when she stood at the edge of the land lot, surveying it.Forget an office building—even factories were impractical when this land lot is so far from the main road!While there were projects within the area, every block was starting to lean to one side. Cracks were showing on the walls too—they were obvious signs of disrepair."Frank… 500 million… For this land! We've really taken the fall here." Helen sighed dejectedly—in her point of view, the land was worthless!The projects were mostly empty too, and most units were unoccupied."Well, you'd never know." Frank smiled just then and headed toward the projects before Helen did.They did not make it too far when they found a group of thugs huddling together, playing poker at a rundown lobby. They all looked very young but were dressed ridiculously.One of them, who was facing the entrance, spotted Helen and Frank entering and was at once stunned."Hey! It's your call, Blackie!""What,

    "Hahaha…"Frank was suddenly laughing out loud after looking around at the place, which left the approached thugs stunned."What's wrong?" Helen turned worriedly toward Frank—did he snap mentally because he spent 500 million on a useless plot of land?As various possibilities came to mind, Helen was left staring as Frank turned to smile at her and winked. "If my hunch is right, your mom really dropped the ball here.""What?" Helen's eyes widened in confusion, increasingly worried that Frank had really snapped.Frank, however, looked pointedly around him at the land. "This plot of land and everything built on it is due for demolition in two weeks. Zamri City Hall is ready to build a highway through this land.""Do you know what that means?" He grinned at Helen, and finished before she could answer. "The value of this land lot will increase more than tenfold! Hahaha… We've really hit the jackpot here, Helen!"Helen frowned suspiciously at his words. "How would you know? The city

    The thugs were all clearly armed with baseball bats and machetes, cutting off Frank and Helen's escape.In an instant, the quiet rundown building was suddenly lively.Vroom!Bike engines roared and catcalls followed as over a dozen biking thugs sped down the road, their tyres screeching as they came to a halt beside Frank and Helen.Now, they were really surrounded."It's too late to leave now!" Terry gloated and laughed out loud.The other thugs started laughing too—with over a hundred of them doing it at the same time, one could almost feel the building rumble."What do you want?!" Helen snapped, even as she realized in dismay that they had entered the literal wolves' den.While she was absolutely confident in Frank's abilities, she was still worried since there were too many of them in the Blood Wolves."What do I want, you asked?!" Ted suddenly spat on the floor and glared at Frank threateningly, sneering, "I should be the one asking what you want! Buying this land?! Did

    At Terry 'Ted' Cotton's orders, the thugs would charge at Frank and cut him into pieces!Still, Ted was narrowing his eyes at the immeasurably arrogant man, feeling just a hint of wariness.Could he be a member of some important family or the apprentice of one of the South Sea Sects?"You have balls, kid," he said. "Where are you from?""Nowhere. I'm just Frank Lawrence, head of Lanecorp's health and security department," Frank replied confidently.Ted actually did a double take.Lanecorp? As in the company?And the head of Lanecorp's health and security department… It actually took Ted a while to come to a realization, though he felt humiliated when he understood what Frank was saying. Head of Lanecorp's health and security department?! That just meant he was some glorified security guard!And a security guard had the balls to threaten him?!Incensed, Ted bellowed while pointing at Frank right then, "Go! Break every bone in his body! Spare that woman—I will have her warm

    Frank snorted. "Alright, I'm hanging up. I'm getting started over here soon.""Yeah. Good luck," Jouri replied.Hanging up, Frank looked up at the waterfall overhead, and then at Skyler, who was standing beside him. "So? Is it time yet?""Almost… Now!" Skyler's eyes were glowing even as she stared at her watch."Alright."Frank looked up just as the skies abruptly darkened. "Ah, there it is—the eclipse."The sun seemed to disappear, and the world was suddenly shrouded in darknesses.And beside him, a stone door imbued with the power of the spiritron vein also rumbled as it parted."Got it!" Frank rushed inside without another word as soon as he saw it."Hmph. I'm surprised that you could reach this place." A cold, wrathful voice resounded inside even before Frank got a hold of his surroundings.Looking up, Frank found a youth in a black cossack and sporting grey-white hair, standing upon a cliff as he looked down on him.Frank chuckled. "Hehe. Like I said, I've come to kill

    Frank narrowed his eyes. "Is that so?'Crane shrugged. "I don't mind giving it to you straight—members of Torrent are actually… Ahem. A part of Torrent himself."Frank paused. "What's that supposed to mean?""You don't get it, do you?" Crane grinned. "Then let me put it to you this way—every member is a clone of Torrent.""A clone?" Frank gasped in realization."Yes," Crane nodded. "That's why I believe that challenging Crane is just suicide. You have no idea how powerful he is—only death awaits you down that path."Frank smirked. "Oh, but I don't think so."Crane rolled his eyes. "Fine, whatever—now listen closely. You will find Torrent in the Mystic Trail, but you would only find that place when the sun and moon coincide, and the entrance is beneath the waterfall south of Horton."As he finished, he snorted coldly. "I have no idea if you can actually do it, but I'm hoping you do kill him… Heh. I'm getting tired of being stuck under his control for so long."Then, waving off

    Frank abruptly turned, immediately noticing one of the Cranes crouching, ready to spring forward and blindside him."Got you!" He laughed."Hah! You fell for it!"Just as Frank swung a punch to pulverize that Crane, he suddenly burst into pus that splashed at Frank's face."Damn it!" Frank took a step back, surprised that the clone's presence was identical to the real Crane, and a trap on top of that!"Die!"The Cranes around him each whipped out a dagger, all of them stabbing at Frank at the same time."Get off!" Frank bellowed, unleashing a shockwave that sent all the Cranes flying across all directions."Frank! Above you!" Skyler suddenly shrieked."Yes! I'm right here!" A strange laughter sounded above Frank just as he wiped the pus off his face.Crane was suddenly directly above him, launching an aerial kick straight at Frank's head, and Frank had no time to dodge!"Die!" Crane's smile curled into a twisted angle as he saw that too.He was very confident with this kick

    "Disgusting…" Skyler murmured through her hand.Despite being skinned and scalped, the women were all still alive and singing to the music that was playing despite their anguish."Talk about a terrible fetish."Frank was scowling too—why were all the members of Torrent such sick deviants? It seemed like his plan to wipe them out was absolutely correct!"So, you killed my clone?"The lanky man on the couch slowly turned to level his bloodshot eyes at Frank.His lips were wet with bed as they curled upward into an eerie smile."Clone?" Frank narrowed his eyes."Hehe. It's a sage art."Crane shrugged as he stood up and wiped the blood off his lips. "It's only natural that you don't understand… Still, you deserve praise. If you can kill my clone, that means you're not just slightly stronger than Ghost."Naturally, the man was none other than the real Crane.Still, as Skyler studied him from a corner, even she could notice the strange twitch of his fingers, and his veins were pro

    Even as Crane ran, he was looking over his shoulder, his heart pounding. "No… I won't win in a one-on-one!"No, as long as I get back to my real body… we can do this together!" He frowned, having seen how Frank sliced off the pinkies of those hood rats. It hence quickly dawned on him that Frank was not just slightly stronger than Ghost, as Torrent had put it!"Almost there!" He gasped when he saw the signboard of Pegasus Showtown in the distance. "As long as I get there and rendezvous with my real body, that brat will lose—"That was when he turned and saw that a shadow had caught up with impossible speed."What?!" Crane's eyes almost popped out in bewilderment. "What speed is that?! Are you kidding—"Even as he spotted the shadow, the shadow turned into a youth with an impassive visage.His fist outstretched, he was clearly punching toward Crane's forehead!"Argh…"Even as Crane looked on, the youth's punch slowed down by tenfold, but his fist kept closing in.Then, whe

    Seeing Skyler sigh, the tattooed thug presumed that his extortion worked.He strode up, grabbing Frank's shoulder. "No one's gonna help you, boy. Pay up, or you're not leaving.""Exactly! You're not getting away!" the crowd of hood rats hollered. "Last chance."Frank's eyes were cold and fixed on Dani, however. "Are you going to intervene? If you do, you can keep that check. If you don't…""Ugh. Fuck off! I don't care!" Dani spat, her expression smug as she folded her arms before her chest. "Who do you think you are to threaten me?!""Exactly! Pay up, and you can leave!""Yeah! Ten grand, at least!""You probably don't know my boss Wyvern, but when he's here, you won't get away with just ten grand!"Even as the crowd closed in, Frank shook his head. "Well, you had your chance. Don't blame me for what happens next.""You're giving us a chance?! Hah! Who—argh!"Even before Dani could finish gloating, Frank was suddenly in front of her, grabbing her viciously by the wrist."Arg

    "Five grand?! Did you hear that?! He just threw five grand!""Must be a rich kid coming here for a secret rendezvous, out of prying eyes? Those types are the easiest mark!""Fuck! And Dani got one of us… It hurts me more than losing at the races!"Frank could hear the buzz around him but ignored it as he strode past the men flanking him and headed toward the street that stank of blood."Stop!" A big tattooed man grinned sinisterly as he intercepted Frank.As his buddies encircled Frank as well, Frank snorted—it seemed that they took his reaction for a sign of weakness and thought that he could be cowed.The tattooed man rubbed his chin as he leered at Skyler's voluptuous figure, chuckling. "Look, boy. I'm short on cash, so let me take a loan. I'll pay you back some other day, how about that?"His friend laughed. "Exactly! You just gave Dani five grand, and we won't ask for more… just four, how about that?"Skyler scowled in turn and glanced worriedly at Frank beside her—was he

    Frank himself had just stepped out of the nightclub when his eyes narrowed."Blood," he murmured, his nostrils twitching."Blood?"Skyler sniffed the air, puzzled. "I can't smell it.""It's from the opposite street… I smell the blood of over a dozen people.""A dozen?!" Skyler did a double take.He could identify the number of people who were killed?! That was just ridiculous!"Come on, let's take a look."Just as Frank led the way toward the source of the stench, a woman suddenly came up, catching Frank off guard and throwing herself into his arms."Hmmm?" He looked down to see that she had thick makeup, average looks, and a rather pudgy belly."Argh! He touched me!" she pointed at Frank and shrieked even before he realized what was happening."What?!" Skyler was staring at the woman too, mystified."Oh, sister! You just didn't see it!"The woman kept hollering, pointing at Frank's face. "Your boyfriend grabbed my ass! Is that how you teach him manners?!""Teach him ma

    Wyvern screamed even as he clutched the stump that was his hand, screaming so shrilly one might mistake his voice as inhuman."Oh, just shut up." The lanky man glowered and launched a kick, reducing Wyvern into puddles of blood and pieces of innards, splattering all around the lobby. "Argh!!!" the devilish lady screamed as she watched the carnage unfolded."Another sound, and you'd end up just like him." The lanky man turned and frowned at her impatiently."Hngh…" The devilish lady promptly clasped a hand over her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes as she trembled."What the hell?!"Outside, Wyvern's lackeys heard the screams and ran inside, looking for him. "Hey, where's Wyvern?!"However, the lobby was too dimly lit for them to notice the blood and guts scattered around the walls, and they only sensed that terrible stench."Hngh…" The devilish lady was too scared to speak, and tears trickled out of her eyes."Fuck!"One of the lackeys strode up and seized the lanky man
