With those words, Frankughed coolly and started to leave.


    "Wait... Please wait!" George cried out in anguish, dropping out of bed with a thud as he crawled


    toward Frank. "Please, you have to help me! I don''t want to die. Not like that!"


    His cries left Kendra panicking. She rushed up and grabbed her son by the arm as she begged, "Oh,


    just let him meet Vicky! It''s really no big deal!"


    "It''s not as simple as you''d like to think, Mother!"


    Glen exined even as he struggled out of her grasp, his cheeks heating up like a kettle, "You know


    Vicky''s temper—if he sees her and she decides to leave with him, do you think we can stop them? I


    had to go through great lengths just to convince her to ept the family''s arrangement. What if she


    regrets it once she sees him?"


    Sighing, he added, "And don''t forget that Titus is still outside. Do you think we can hide this from him?


    What would he think of us if he finds out? It''s going to be a crisis!"


    "B-But."


    Kendra was dumbstruck. "But we can''t let your father suffer and die in agony! Is there no other way?"


    "Trust me, I''ve tried," Glen replied, deted. "The Lionhearts even brought in a foreign professor, and


    we know how that went. Who can we count on now?"


    "The way I see it."


    Glen turned toward his father who crawled up to the doorway, his eyes shing with determination.


    "Father will just have to take this one for the family!"


    "Glen!!!" Kendra screamed—she could hear Glen''s determination, and her fingers wed into his arm


    as she tried to stop him. "That''s your father you''re talking about! How could you just watch him die! No.


    This won''t do!"


    Dashing towards the door in a frenzy, she shouted at Frank even as he strode off into the distance, "M-


    Mr. Lawrence. Please! I''ll let you meet Vicky, alright? I''ll let you meet her, as long as you save my


    husband!"


    Frank stopped in his tracks and turned, watching Kendra and Glen quietly as thetter arrived at the


    doorway as well.


    Seeing the look on the man''s face, he realized that Glen did not reach his current position by ying


    on familial sentiment but through cold determination.

    He had clearly given up on his father.


    However, Kendra obviously was not going to do the same... And Frank would not be meeting Vicky if


    not for her.


    Ten minutester, Frank arrived outside akeside cottage in one of the Turnbulls'' luxury cars.


    There was fencing around the cottage, but thewn inside was blossoming with flowers.


    A beautiful woman in a sunhat and a bikini was sitting barefooted by theke, and she turned in reflex


    when she heard the car arriving.


    As Frank alighted, her face lit up with delight.


    "Darling!" she cried, tossing her sunhat aside as she skipped excitedly toward the car, leaping onto


    Frank just like a child.


    She wrapped her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist—it was as improper as improper


    could be.


    With her being dressed in only a bikini that entuated her stunning figure to thest, Frank almost


    bled from excitement.
