Derek chuckled. "Word has it that Lugh Frankton is omnipotent. Who knows? He could have been a soothsayer who foresaw this and avoided your trap!"Walt was not about to give up and started to persuade Derek. "Just listen to me. You can't ever trust them—it's only by keeping control of the family to yourself that you can actually get rich!"Derek was not dumb enough to fall for that, however.Not only had Arcus proved his restraint as Frank's representative, but it was clear that they were not here to shed blood. If anything, Arcus even showed his respect for Derek, as he clearly considered Derek's standpoint on this issue.Moreover, people always said that Frank could be ruthless and merciless, so why should Derek corner himself against a reaper like him? Even if he wanted to go down swinging against Frank, would those working for him agree to that?He and Walt were both Costners and shared the same lineage, but they certainly differed in ambition—or at the very least, not every

Frank walked up to Pat, smiling. "Sorry you had to travel all this way."Pat returned his smile, shrugging. "Come on. You are a very important friend—of course I had to see you when you're in town."Frank nodded and walked up to Arcus. "Well done, kid. Not even Jada would be able to handle this as well as you did."Arcus actually felt embarrassed instead and asked, "When are we visiting the Costners, sir?""Yeah, this can't wait." Frank nodded, turning back to Pat. "How did it go?""Can't say it went well!" Pat shook his head. "Walt Costner had been fueling rumors that you're the one who poisoned Derek, and the family is now reluctant to let you meet him.""They are as stupid as they are sickening!" Arcus snorted in annoyance. "Can't they at least think about it? What would Mr. Frankton have to gain from hurting the head of a small family like theirs?""Calm down." Pat chuckled. "I'm sure Mr. Frankton has a plan in mind already."Frank chuckled. "You know me well!"Arcus' ey

Several helpers who were maintaining order over the crowd saw Frank just then.Presuming that he was a friend of the Costner family, one of them asked, "Sir, may I see your invitation?"Frank flexed his fist. "Right here!"The helpers traded glances before leaping at Frank, who stepped back and avoided them before punching them to the floor.Naturally, he held back and continued forward, strutting right into the Costners' residence.Still, the commotion caught the attention of patrolling security guards.They came running and quickly encircled Frank, with the leader demanding, "Who are you?!""Take a guess!"Frank quickly knocked them out with restraint too. Then, projecting his voice as if using a loudspeaker, so that everyone in the mansion could hear, he said, "Greetings. This is Lugh Frankton, and I'm here on a house call for one Derek Costner. Why isn't anyone coming out to receive me?"-In the drawing room within the mansion, Walt paled when he heard Frank's voice!

Frank raised his hand to catch the rock and glanced at Walt.While Walt hid in terror, Frank could tell that he was trying to escalate the conflict while he sat back and reaped the spoils.However, Frank had already planned to make a mess of things in the first place and was confident he had everything in the back.As such, he pretended as if he fell for Walt's attempt at provocation and dropped the rock in front of Ocean as he growled, "What is the meaning of this?"Ocean frowned but reasoned, "Please calm down, Mr. Frankton. This might have been an accident—I'll find the culprit right away."Frank shook his head. "Save it. I'll find him myself!" Ocean promptly strode up in front of him.Even if he did not want anyone in his family to die by Frank's hand, Frank did charge into their house in the first place. That was not all either—he was now demanding free rein to search inside, and no matter how naive Ocean could be, he still had to defend his family's honor!Frank raised a

Even as Ocean was left feeling helpless, Derek suddenly sat up on his bed and snapped, "If you say so!"He was enfeebled due to his illness, but the color has returned to his cheeks, clearly a sign that he was healing!"T-That's impossible!" Walt cried, staring at Frank in disbelief.After all, he was the one who could have saved Derek, but how could he have done it so quickly?Walt was simply unaware that with the power of the spiritron vein, Frank could treat a variety of illnesses in no time at all, and without medicine at that.In fact, he was already doing it as soon as he entered Derek's room. Derek had even regained consciousness, but he was also eager to see how Frank would handle this conflict and pretended to stay asleep.And now that Walt had confessed to his crime directly, Derek had no reason to play dead—he had to put that geezer in his place!Shaking his head, he sighed, "My dear granduncle… I didn't think that you'd go so far as to try to kill me! Was there eve

Derek sighed—the gap between him and Frank was just too wide, and his family would not have a chance to succeed under his leadership.But that was fine.In the end, money opened doors where schemes and conspiracies would not, and Derek was convinced that his family still had a shot.-Soon, Frank returned to the safehouse, and Pat was on hand to receive him. "You really are the greatest warlord ever seen. Not only did you charge into the Costners' residence all on your own, but you also subdued the Costners and returned without a scratch.""Surely you jest, commissioner." Frank smiled. "I'm sure your people could do the same.""You're kidding. They won't measure up to you, not even by a single fraction!"Pat shook his head, his tone changing sharply and turning serious, "Mr. Frankton, let's be serious for a moment. No matter how big the Costners get, they are just one family in Shagan—it's nothing surprising if they were subdued as they are really nothing to brag about."Howeve

Monte actually kept several chunks of gold bullions in his suitcase as well, but those were not stolen—it was only the photo!Frank noticed the gold too and chuckled. "I guess you can stop looking now. Someone stole your photo."Instead, he took Monte to Dawn and asked her, "Do you recognize this man?"Dawn frowned as she studied Monte from head to toe, nodding before shaking her head. "I don't think I do, but he feels familiar…""How about my voice?" Monte asked.Dawn smiled in wry amusement. "Again, it's both familiar but also not."Frank did not give up, however, and had Monte read the script he gave earlier. "I'm Monte Petale. I have a solution that could help Mr. Frankton overcome the curse of the spiritron vein and leave Shagan!"Dawn appeared to be jolted by those words, and her eyes rolled up as she passed out.Frank leapt up to catch her and carried Dawn to the couch while telling Monte to make her some tea.As Monte left, Frank said, "You can stop pretending now. He'

"Don't worry about how I found out," Frank said. "What's your twin's name?""He doesn't have one."Monte smiled, shaking his head. "My family was poor, and my twin was sent to an orphanage due to his poor health soon after we were born."My whole family thought he was dead… Hell, I didn't know he existed until he came to me when he was thirty-two, and I found myself staring at my own face, although it was scared and missing an ear."Frank frowned. "What did he want?" Monte shook his head. "No idea! He just said his family owed him, and from now on, he'd be living as me… And with that, he's disappeared, and I can't find him no matter how I try."Frank nodded.It was clear that the missing twin was the key to undoing the curse of the spiritron vein, but what role did he play? Was he really going to exploit that opening to hurt him, like Dawn had put it?Monte had proven that he had ambition, but Frank could see that he would not hurt him either… or at the very least, he did not

Frank chuckled. "According to what you're saying, we're just using each other?"Jouri grinned in turn. "You can think of it that way, since that is the case rationally speaking… so if you want to think of it sentimentally, we're friends."Frank smiled but said nothing, while Jouri went to work—splitting the task of restoring Monte's original face to one group and delegating looking for the person named Robbie to another group.According to Monte, Robbie was working for a research institution in Merka. While Monte also gave everyone details about Robbie's age, appearance, and other details, Jouri found no such person.Furious, Jouri returned and demanded, "Are you taking us for a ride?!"Monte sighed in exasperation. "I'd never dare, Ms. Yelin. Even if I found it in me to deceive you, I'd still wouldn't dare to deceive Mr. Frankton! You know that discretion is always the policy with people like them. He must've been using a pseudonym."Jouri rolled her eyes, feeling worse than Mon

Soon, Frank and Sue were back in Shanton.Igor and the other scientist were on hand to receive them outside the research lab, since Sue had called ahead to inform them that Frank was coming."Mr. Frankton!" Igor hurried to him as Frank arrived. "Are you feeling any discomfort? If you do, please inform me right away. The lab will do everything possible to help."Frank smiled, shaking his head. "What are you saying? Your skill is plenty trustworthy—we're just here to see how much progress you have made on your research. It would be ideal if even the average Joe could benefit from the regenerative serum."Igor laughed. "In that case, we welcome your visit with open arms!"While Frank was conversing with Igor, he was keeping an eye on a quiet youth nearby.He was around his twenties and sported a buzz cut, and everything from his appearance to his eyes appeared to be local. Only Frank was aware that he was actually a foreigner.Before long, Frank strode up to Robbie and asked Igor,
