Walter had questioned Vicky many times since, but Vicky was deliberately vague—all she would say was that Walter did not have to worry about her engagement with Titus.

In other words, Titus and Vicky had decided to annul their engagement in private.

And knowing that, Walter expected the Lionhearts to send someone over eventually.

Even if he had no idea why Titus would annul the engagement, the fact that Vicky said it meant that Titus had agreed to it.

While Walter was spacing out in thought, Sif took a sip of her tea and spoke unhurriedly, "There's another month until the engagement that was agreed upon, but Titus told us it has since been annulled without citing any reasons."

Leveling a thoughtful look at Walter, she asked, "I wonder if you're aware of this, Mr. Turnbull?"

"What?" Walter did a double take, thought about it, and shook his head. "No, I don't… But I guess it's Titus and Vicky's joint decision. We shouldn't meddle as a third party."

"I see." Sif nodded as she turne

    As Sif's words left the atmosphere tense, Vicky—who had just gotten out of bed and washed up—strode down the spiral staircase.Susan quickly changed the subject. "Oh, Vicky. Come here, sit—we were just discussing your engagement with Titus."However, Vicky was scowling and raised a hand to stop her. "I heard what you said," Vicky said, frowning as she turned to Sif. "I'm sorry to say this ahead of time, but my engagement to Titus Lionheart is called off with no grounds for negotiation."Everyone froze at her words, none of them expecting Vicky to be so blunt.Could there have been something they did not know?Susan frowned as she demanded, "What are you saying, Vicky? Have you woken up fully yet? Why would a proper engagement be called off, and how could you decide on that alone?!""I know what I'm saying, Mom," Vicky said calmly. "It's a shame that Titus Lionheart and I are just not meant for each other."Sif rose to her feet, her tone gradually hostile. "What is the meaning

    Sif slammed her teacup on the table as her face contorted in rage. "It doesn't matter what you say—you'll marry Titus one way or another!"However, Vicky stood her ground and showed no signs of backing down. "I can play along with any other arrangements, but my marriage is my own business. I won't give in.""Hah!" Sif laughed despite herself. "Do you have any idea what's going on here, Vicky?! It's your immense fortune that my brother is interested in you! No, neither you nor your family get to have a say—it's my family that does, you hear?!"Even Susan's face fell at Sif's commanding tone. Sif was not here to discuss anything—she had come to enforce the Lionhearts' authority!"In that case, you should go home and ask your brother," Vicky retorted coolly. "If he actually refuses to annul the engagement, then I won't argue.""No! No chance!" Sif pointed at Vicky as she snapped. "What our family wants, we get! It doesn't matter if you agree to it or what my brother says—this engagem

    Walter also reasoned, "That's right, Vicky. You should talk to us about something like this."After all, Titus was the gem of his family's younger generation and a prodigy even among all the rich kids in Morhen. Not only did he reach Birthright rank before thirty, but he had also already secured a strong position in Volsung Sect.Heiresses worshiped his good looks and tremendous potential and would go crazy for him.And yet, Walter's own daughter did not seem to care, even demanding to have their engagement annulled?!No matter how impressive Frank was, he would never measure up to Titus or any of the strength and influence he boasted.Even so, Vicky remained impassive as she retorted, "I alone will decide who I marry, not anyone else. And I'm not about to sacrifice myself for the sake of family."Before this, she would have been able to accept the engagement and arrangement for the sake of her family's gains and prosperity. After all, she stood to profit in every way if she marr

    The South Sea Crow was so elusive the South Sea Four tried and failed for three years to take her down, even with all the Ascendant rank fighters at their disposal.How would Vicky ever stop that woman in just one month, and what could she do?-Meanwhile, at Skywater Bay, Helen had washed up and was preparing to go to work when Frank stopped her."How's the promotion for the farm resort going?" he asked.Helen rolled her eyes. "It's just been a week."Still, she soon flashed him a flirty wink, sending Frank's heart skipping a beat.Resisting the urge to hug her, he smiled instead. "Is there anything else you need my help with?""Nope. Just leave the promotion to me and Vicky—you just worry about preparing the farm.""Really?" Frank strode closer, narrowing his eyes."Yeah…" Helen trailed off and threw up her hands to yield—she was never a great liar. "Well, there's no problem with Flora Hall, since Dan Zimmer agreed to it without hesitation when I mentioned you… It's Noel

    After driving Winter and Mona to school, Frank stayed in his car as he called the private number Helen gave him."Hello?" Noel's tired voice could soon be heard."Ms. York? It's me, Frank Lawrence," Frank said nonchalantly. "How have you been doing? Would you care to make time for a drink?"He naturally did not expect a star actress like her to say yes and was just making small talk.As such, he did not expect Noel to stay silent for seconds before asking shortly, "Where?""Huh…" A little stumped, Frank simply picked the first place that came to mind. "The Dynasty.""Got it," Noel replied and hung up without further ado.Frank scratched his head awkwardly—the invitation was just the lead, and he did not expect the star actress to take it.Was he really that charming?Frank chuckled as he rubbed his chin and turned his Maybach to rush for The Dynasty.-As usual, the bar in The Dynasty was dimly lit as the wall speakers boomed with thunderous music.The air swirled with the

    Hearing the thug's yell, a burly bald man strode out from a nearby bar. "Who is it?"When he glanced behind the thug and saw who it was, he promptly picked up a tablecloth and flung it at the thug's face. "You piece of shit! You can't even recognize Mr. Lawrence just because you took a few sips?! I told you to quit drinking already, but you just won't listen! And don't think you're dragging me into your mess!""Mr. Lawrence… Who?" The thug on the floor obviously had not come to his senses.When he did, he promptly knelt in front of Frank. "I'm so, so sorry, Mr. Lawrence… I didn't recognize you! Bravo Lambert even told us that everything is on the house if you ever visit—""Just go," Frank snapped, not interested in taking it out with the thug since he was drunk and incoherent. "And don't try to hit on the ladies like you did, or you're dead if you caught me."The thug was completely sober at Frank's scary threat and scrambled to run away."Hmm… I'm surprised you're that well-resp

    Frank continued, "I'm not an ingrate, so tell me about the trouble you're having and I'll help where I can. Naturally, the condition is for you to endorse my farm resort as agreed."Noel's skeptic gaze faded as she stared at Frank's smile, while her own smile turned to gloom."You can't help me, Mr. Lawrence." She sighed. "But I'm short on friends right now, so I'll just have you listen to me vent instead."She took another sip of her cocktail before telling Frank everything—naturally, she was the victim of workplace bullying instead of the perpetrator.Lycoris Entertainment, the agency representing her, used to be owned by a man named Dylan Hood. He was quite influential in the east coast and had been obsessed with Noel for a long time. In fact, the thug named Dustin who was harassing Noel when Frank first met her worked for Dylan too.Even so, Noel held her ground, rebuffing Dylan's advances with wit and determination… That is, until recently, when Lycoris Entertainment was bo

    As Burt took a seat, he chugged a bottle of beer and caught his breath before turning to Frank."It's about Ms. Noel York here…" Frank began."Wait, Noel York? As in the actress?" Burt turned toward Noel in shock and confusion. "What, you two know each other?" Frank asked, puzzled."No, we haven't met yet." Noel shook her head."No, we haven't." Burt chuckled. "It's just a coincidence… But the man I was chasing earlier used to be an accountant at your agency, Lycoris Entertainment.""What's that about?" Frank asked, his interest peaked."Actually, it's no big deal." Burt smiled. "The accountant was conspiring with Dylan Hood, the previous CEO, in falsifying company finances leading to the recent company acquisition. Dylan's now on the run, and he left that accountant behind to be his scapegoat.""What?!" Noel sprang to her feet, staring at Frank in disbelief. "O-Officer, are you saying that the Soranos' acquisition is technically invalid? The falsified accounts must mean that

    Frank yelled, "Tell me who your boss is, and I might spare your life! Otherwise, the glass shards on the door will be your doom."That certainly showed the woman that Frank was being honest, and that she misjudged men!Chuckling bitterly, she said, "I actually quite liked you, so I'd rather not speed you to your death. Know when to stop if you're really smart, kid."Frank laughed coolly. "If I was going to stop, would I have come after you or Horace at all?"Fear comes from the unknown, which is why people fear the dark and the paranormal. But when they emerge from it, they fear nothing!"The woman gaped at Frank in disbelief, surprised that someone like him existed in such a quiet corner in this world.Terrifying, yet not patient—his existence was way beyond her reach.But when it came to men like him, she was still all too happy to help him die for on reason!"Fine, I'll take you to her—just don't be disappointed in the gap of power. Try to keep your pride as you do now."Fr

    "What the fuck do you want?!"It was the first time Horace had ever seen anyone do something like this.Frank was helping out of sheer conscience and clearly would not tolerate anyone who committed evils, even going all out to wipe them out.At the same time, he was also different from the rest. Cunning ploys and fancy tricks were pointless against him, and he did not care about his reputation as long as he achieved his goal.And when it came to personal ability, wit, and influence, Horace simply did not compare in any element. He was also experienced enough to see that compliance was his only chance against a character like Frank. But chance did not even mean surviving but a polite death, because Frank would not let someone like him live!Throwing up his hands, Horace exclaimed, "I-I'll tell you everything! Just kill me—don't throw me in jail, okay?!"Frank said nothing and waited until Horace confessed everything, and once he gathered sufficient information, he snapped his fi

    "How did you get in here?"Before this, Horace had arranged a security detail of over a dozen men in case Frank came after him.Even if they were no match for Frank, they could at least buy time, while he would hear the commotion and flee!However, Frank simply appeared without a sound behind him, making it all the more horrific!"Simple, really."Frank smirked. "I knocked them all out quietly! But to be honest, it's your own fault for not hiring martial artists despite being so rich. It's what you deserve.""You can kill me, but what's going to happen to the girl's parents?"Horace smirked, still confident in his own advantage as he waved his phone at Frank.It was a simple gesture to tell him that he was ready to take Aisling's parents down with him.Frank simply ignored him. "The assassin you sent was quite something, to be honest. Pretty face, and that mole under her eye… She's really special."Horace lost all composure right then—that could only mean that Frank had met h

    "Got it!"The woman hung up and used her other phone to call Aisling again. "Lady, you will do everything we say. To put it harshly, you're now a slave—you don't get to refuse us!""Is that so?"Just as the woman finished, the window suddenly crashed open, and someone zoomed inside!Even before she could react, she was held firmly in place by the shoulder.Seeing the handsome face and knowing it was the martial elite who took down the dozenish goons sent by the cottage, she exclaimed in shock, "H-How did you find me?""Did you think I can't find you just because you're on the move?"Frank smirked as he pointed outside. "First and foremost, finding your name is simple since I have the means to find your number and therefore personal details. Also, this vehicle is registered under your name—and with the support of the most advanced GPS systems, it'd be shocking if I couldn't find you."In fact, Frank already knew the woman would not hang around in Aisling's home and called Jouri

    Other factors aside, pride matters more than anything else when a person gets rich, and Horace absolutely refused to be mocked as a coward."Don't worry about it. I have other arrangements in place," he said. He then told the middle-aged man to leave and called a mysterious number.-An hour later, Frank was speaking with the intern at his homestay cottage when her phone rang.Taking it out and seeing an unfamiliar number, she knew right away that it was from the Mount Statera's management and turned on the speakers despite her curiosity as she answered."Aisling Walls, was it? Your name has a nice ring to it!" A playful, feminine voice giggled eerily from the other end."What's it to you?" Aisling snorted in annoyance. "Mess around, and I'll call the cops on you!"The woman was not intimidated at all, even laughing icily. "Go on, but your parents will die if you do."Aisling was stunned, shaking her head as she cried, "No, that's impossible… How could you know where I live?"

    The middle-aged man frowned.He knew that the intern and the chief ranger would take convincing, but they did not even care to listen. "Actually, neither of you have any control over your lives now."And with that, he turned to leave.This was a homestay, after all—a fight would only further complicate the situation, which was why he did not want to do it here.However, just because he could bear with it did not mean that Frank could. "Hold it. Don't you think you're disrespecting me by leaving so quickly?"The middle-aged man stopped and turned, seemingly interested. "And where did you get the confidence to threaten me?"Frank simply smiled.At the very next instant, the middle-aged man and his dozen goons were sent flying.Then, even before they could get up, Frank had already cut up and stamped his foot on the middle-aged man's face."W-Who the hell are you?"He had worked for Horace for a while, but someone as bothersome as Frank was the first.Even if he was stupid, he

    The chief ranger sighed. "I can understand being altruistic, kid, but strength doesn't solve all problems."Frank laughed. "Are you sure I'm just good in a fight? The behavior of upper management is definitely terrible—if someone like me would simply let it slide, what would happen to the ordinary folk?"The chief ranger no longer hesitated and told the intern everything he knew.Soon, her article blew up on the internet, with netizens everywhere outraged.Management naturally could not just let it slide.Horace Gagne, the person in charge, promptly sent his people after the intern and the chief ranger, only to find that they were both in Frank's homestay cottage.As both groups convened, they reported to Horace right away despite their surprise.Horace was certainly no fool—he knew that someone was setting this scene.But so what about it? He had plenty of ways to bury his opponent.And with that, his thugs all stormed into the first floor living room to find Frank seated on

    The chief ranger had no idea that he had fallen for a trap and left with Frank and the others to get some rest.In the lounge, Jada was feeling bored and scrolled through her phone when she stumbled on an article, titled 'Rescuer so incompetent, he couldn't even defend himself.'There was nothing to hide about it, so Jada showed the chief ranger right then, sighing. "Those journalists are horrible, playing word tricks to blame everything on you, when they could report on the incompetence of the rescue leader."While Jada appeared indignant, the chief leader appeared calm. "They can blame me all they want—it's not our first rodeo."The journalists are horrible, but the people in charge shouldn't treat rescue efforts like a game either. As long as it wasn't that dire, they always sent fools to take over command… And when I say command, I mean cause trouble."People would die pointlessly because of that, and journalists used to report it unbiased. But if they did, they would either b

    Fortunately for the rescue leader, the chief ranger was not planning on killing him.Catching the rescue leader at the last possible moment, the chief ranger smirked. "Run your mouth again, and I'll really let you fly."It worked this time, as the rescue leader was hysterical and yelling through tears, "This is harassment! This isn't over yet!"The chief ranger snorted. "This isn't over yet, you say? But you see, I could kill you, and one wouldn't even bat an eye!"The rescue leader shook his head, laughing. "No chance! Blood calls for blood! It's a tale as old as time!"The chief ranger sneered. "True, but evidence matters these days! Do you think I'm capable of launching another adult man into the air? Hell, even if I did it in full view of the public, I know for sure that I can escape unscathed."The rescue leader was left speechless—that much was true.Forget anyone else. The rescue leader himself had personally experienced how it felt to be thrown up into the skies, but eve
