The valet named Fenton replied respectfully, "Sixty-three years, sir.""And your daughter… I heard she's doing well in Morhen?" Godwin asked."More or less." Fenton nodded, chuckling. "Word has it that she's the leader of the Martial Alliance or some thingamajig. We'd never understand what the young ones are up to these days."Godwin turned toward his valet and old friend with a smile. "Well, Frank's alive. Does their betrothal still count?""Of course, my lord. I'll send word to my daughter right away and have her depart to Riverton and protect Master Frank immediately.""Good." Godwin nodded in satisfaction but soon shook his head and sighed. "Danger lurks in every corner of Draconia. We can only wait until that silly boy comes around!""He's wise beyond his age. He will eventually understand your plight, sir."Both men were still speaking when a uniformed soldier suddenly entered."Sir!" He saluted Godwin."Report." Godwin was suddenly the figure of authority from earlier.

Gavin then finished, "But you never reached out to us, and Gina kept us from reaching out to you directly. That's why things ended up the way they are now."It was only then that Helen understood why Gina constantly forbade her from visiting Mason here in the Southstream Lanes' mansion.He was already dead, and Gina wanted everything he had for her own!Even her constant schemes for the Northstream Lanes to be taken back into the main family was for that purpose alone!She suddenly felt light-headed and would have collapsed on the ground if Frank did not catch her.Seeing that Helen was crumbling under pressure, he asked, "Where's Gina now?" "Frank Lawrence, was it?" Gavin was clearly unsentimental, shaking his head at Frank as he ignored his question. "I don't know how you managed to get away from the Graves and the Lionhearts, but I can't let you leave now that you're here."Still, with just a look, he had his family's bodyguards clear a subtle gap among their ranks.Frank c

Helen kept striding menacingly toward Gina, snapping, "What about Dad? You kept telling me he dumped you and is living like a king here!""Well…" Gina sighed exasperatedly, knowing that the cat was out of the bag. "It was an accident. I-I didn't mean to do harm.""Fine, even if you didn't, what were you trying to do with his estate?!" Helen snarled, gritting her teeth so hard that they could break. "Why were you stopping me from reaching out to Uncle Gavin and the rest of the family but so keen on having us Northstream Lanes being taken back?!""I… Uh…"Gina's eyes were darting away—she had excuses for anything else but not this question because the persons involved were right there with them!Having no choice, she started throwing a fit just to change the subject. "Oh, Helen! Don't you know that you've just killed us all? It's not just us Northstream Lanes, but even the Southstream Lanes too!"Wheeling on Frank with a venomous glare, she said, "You jinx! You bastard! You had to

"What?!"The Southstream Lanes were all left astonished by Roth's words, and even as they wondered what he really meant, Gavin asked, "What do you mean, Roth…?"He was actually skeptical and urged his son for more details.Seeing that his family had trouble understanding, Roth adjusted his glasses as he spoke bluntly this time, "The Four Families of Southstream are now three. All thirty-two members of the Graves family have been butchered—none were left alive."The Southstream Lanes were all gasping at Roth's words."Butchered? All of them?!" Gavin exclaimed, before turning stiffly toward Frank and seeing that he remained calm despite the bombshell…As if he already knew.Seizing Roth by the collar right then, Gavin cried urgently, "But what about the Lionhearts or Titus?!""Calm down, Dad." Roth adjusted his glasses as he patted his father's shoulders. "Titus left, announcing to everyone that he no longer has ties to the Graves family and would therefore not meddle with the we

And now, as Jade heard Frank mention his wager with Jon, she knew there was no escape.She turned toward Gavin for the sake of her son, crying out, "Please! You have to do something!"If Jon got killed eating dog poo, their family would become the laughing stock of all of Southstream! Gavin did not want his youngest son to die so miserably too and turned to level an earnest, pleading look at Frank. "Please, Mr. Lawrence. My son has always been too mischievous—he's just joking to liven things up. Please be understanding…"Then, he slapped Jon in front of everyone for his stupidity, snapping, "Apologize to Mr. Lawrence already!"The slap actually brought Jon to his senses, and he quickly kowtowed to Frank. "I was just joking, Mr. Lawrence! I didn't mean to insult you…""Really?" Frank turned toward Luna, who was on her knees and trembling. "Someone told me you were a man of sheer will but would like to see me go through with your wager?"Luna turned pale from Frank's stare and hu
