Chris' eyes were evasive even as he quickly came up with another excuse. "I have no connection with Viola—I bought that red diamond necklace! She wanted it too, but I didn't give in, so she bore a grudge over that!"

The Lanes were all trading glances, not sure who to believe with Frank and Chris arguing.

Frank turned toward Cindy just then and said, "Why don't you tell us. Is the necklace Viola's or Chris'?"

Cindy did not think that Frank would turn his crosshairs on her.

At that moment, what she said would decide what the Lanes would believe, and she certainly knew the truth. After all, during the party, Viola wore a blue diamond necklace with a design identical to Chris' red diamond necklace.

However, if she told the truth, she would upset Chris… And Frank was not going to thank her anyway.

And considering all the grievances she harbored toward Frank, helping Chris and getting in his good graces was much more ideal.

"O-Of course it's Mr. Steiner's," she said. "Ms. Salazar is j

    Henry's eyes lit up as he exclaimed in disbelief, "Really?""Of course. Let me take this call." Frank nodded and strode outside to answer Donald's phone call.Donald was bellowing as soon as the call connected, "Frank Lawrence! My daughter is dying! Get over here and treat her right now!"He was utterly frantic as Viola's condition grew progressively worse.She was wheelchair bound, unable to lift any of her limbs!On the other hand, Frank remained nonchalant. "Calm down. She still has three days and plenty of hurting in between.""You little—"Frank cut Donald's outburst short. "I guess I should remind you that you're the one asking for a favor. You have no right to demand anything.""Fine! What do you want?" Donald growled through his teeth. "I'll lift the sanctions against Lane Holdings too, okay?""I told you. Have your daughter apologize to Helen if you want her to live," Frank replied. "If anything, lifting the sanctions is only right."Donald clenched his fist. "My dau

    Chris chuckled. "Oh, it's nothing… It's no big deal at all."Henry and Frank entered just then, and Helen quickly told Henry, "You have nothing to worry about now, Grandpa. The sanctions against us have been lifted.""Really?" Henry did a double take and quickly realized that Frank did it since he was just on his phone. "Well, we really owe Frank for that."Frank nodded—it seemed that Donald had caved, and Viola would soon be here to apologize to Helen.Gina, however, snorted in disdain. "Him? What does it have to do with him? It's all thanks to Mr. Steiner that the sanctions were lifted!""Impossible," Henry retorted. "Frank was on his phone just now, and the sanctions were lifted soon after.""Haha!" Peter laughed as he pointed at Frank. "He made a phone call, and it's done? Who did he call, Donald Salazar? Who does he think he is?""Exactly." Chris laughed. "What are you going to say next, that the Salazars would come to apologize now?" "What if I do?" Frank replied flatly.

    Helen gulped—she certainly did not have the right to deny Viola anything! "O-Of course. I forgive Ms. Salazar," she said."Wonderful. From now on, our family and yours would still be friends," Alfredo flashed a gentlemanly smile."Yeah, that's for sure." Helen nodded repeatedly.Gina was grinning as well. "It's all just a misunderstanding. Just give us a shout if you need anything too."The rest of them were certainly awash with delight that the Salazars came personally to apologize, even make peace with them.Even in hiding, Chris could hear them from his corner and was left in shock as well!However, that was when Frank strode up to Alfredo and snapped, "What's this? Why are you apologizing to the Lanes, geezer? Viola Salazar was the one who hurt Helen. She should be apologizing instead.""Uh…" Alfredo was left stunned.Gina freaked out right then and glared at Frank. "Shut up! You don't get to speak here!"Even Helen was frowning and snapping at him. "Stop it, Frank." T

    Gina nodded repeatedly. "Absolutely. Former classmates should help each other—it's only right.""Pfft. Him, telling the Salazars to apologize? Who does he think he is?" Frank snorted in disdain."You're just jealous." Chris chuckled coolly.Even if he actually did nothing, it did not matter as long as the Lanes believed him.Frank glared at him with contempt. "Jealous of a lowlife like you? Really?" "Shut up!" Gina bellowed right then, her finger inches from his nose. "You, calling another person a lowlife?! You're the worst there is! Freeloading from my house for years!"Peter nodded beside her. "Exactly—he even has the balls to slander Mr. Steiner. Get out of here already!""Stop it already, Frank." Even Helen was snapping at Frank in disappointment."Stop what?" Frank asked, frowning. "I've been telling the truth all this while."Helen glared at him in turn. "The truth? Are you saying Viola came to apologize because you told her to? That her family lifted their sanctions b

    Gina gulped and asked tentatively, "A-Are you joking, sir?"Alfredo frowned. "Do I look like the type of person who jokes around?""O-Of course not," Gina replied.However, she was too afraid to tell the man that she chased Frank away and instead stammered, "H-He just left… you might catch up if you go after him now?'Alfredo turned and hurried away without delay at those words.On the other hand, Helen suddenly felt dizzy and would have almost dropped to the floor if Gina did not catch her."Helen? Are you alright?" Gina asked worriedly.Helen was leaning in her arms even as she murmured softly, "Mom… I hate this so much…"It turned out that everything Frank said was real. He was the one who was always there for her—heaven knows how much he had been through just to get even for her sake.And yet, she only offered Frank those hurtful words…She felt a pang of guilt when she realized the truth, but she had no idea what to tell Frank now.She would actually rather he scold h

    Frank glanced inside the car at Viola and started towards her.Viola flinched and trembled, as if she had developed a phobia for the man."What are you doing, Mr. Lawrence?" Alfredo asked warily."Freeing her acupoints, unless you're going to do it?" Frank shot him a look.Alfredo stepped back awkwardly, while Frank tapped Viola's acupoints twice, clearing it.Viola could instantly feel the pain, her body fading, and inhaled deeply in relief.Nonetheless, Frank quietly said with murderous coldness, "This is just a lesson. Disrespect Helen again, and you'd be dead.""No, I'd never do it again." Viola quickly shook her head, utterly terrified by Frank's torment.With that, Frank turned to leave, while Alfredo frowned in his wake. "The kid's really full of himself…" he muttered."Shut it. Die all you want—don't get me involved," Viola snapped at him right then.Alfredo quietly hung his head, while Viola was staring warily at Frank and breathed a long sigh of relief when she sa

    Trevor was stumped. "Uh… Birthday present? What kind?""For Winter Lawrence, a young lady around eighteen," Frank said, rubbing his chin."Oh…" Trevor realized with a start.Winter Lawrence was the only daughter of Frank's mentor and should be regarded with importance, but it was still a question as to what present suited her…"Should we give her something valuable or economical?""Valuable, of course," Frank said solemnly—his mentor's daughter deserved that much."Alright, understood." Trevor nodded repeatedly."Send it over to Skywater Bay as soon as you can," Frank told him.Trevor nodded again and hung up to get to work.-Trevor was soon at Frank's door with the present.Frank opened it to find a necklace with a crystalline green diamond pendant, sculpted with the lifelike impression of a phoenix. "A master craftsman sculpted this three years ago from the finest grade of green diamond, Mr. Lawrence," Trevor said. "The material alone is worth twenty million."Frank br

    If Frank's present was not valuable, Zeb was definitely going to mock him for it.As such, Winter said, "Uh… It's fine. I'll open it when I get home."Behind Zeb, a boy who had dyed his hair pale blond, quickly said, "Come on, Winter. I heard the man drives a Maybach—that present would at least be worth a hundred grand, don't you think?"Naturally, Blondie was Zeb's lackey and was obviously trying to mess with Frank despite his flattery.Zeb in turn chuckled. "A hundred grand? Are you belittling Mr. Lawrence now? The Cartier watch I bought for Winter is worth the same. Surely Mr. Lawrence's present is worth twice as much.""That's true."In reality, they were all just university students, and a present as expensive as that was more than enough. Zeb's watch was already an oddity.Aria was eager to see if Frank was generous too. "Exactly, Winter. Open it already. I'm curious!"Winter was actually fairly patient, but everyone was getting on her nerves.On the other hand, Frank wa

    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
