NovelEnglishHelen was stupefied—she had never expected this.
Her grandfather's will was clear: leave the family to be with Frank and follow her conscience.
She had certainly made up her mind after being told about Chaz's true nature, but his threat left her in despair.
If she refused Chaz, he would go after Frank.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYes, Frank was a fighter, but could he defeat the might of the Lionhearts? And they had the backing of Volsung Sect with hundreds of apprentices and countless Skyrank elites among their ranks.
It was impossible—Frank would end up destroyed, and Vicky could get caught in the crossfire too.
It would not be just them either—her family and the company she worked so hard to develop in three years would all be reduced to dust.
Helen was silent and turned toward Chaz, trembling. "I-If | marry you, would you spare Frank?" "Of course! | love you, Helen. Why would | bother with him if you marry me? I'm such a gentleman." Chaz smiled.
That smile only left Helen disgusted—to think that her childhood friend grew up to be such a heinous man.
But she had no way of fighting back.
After struggling with herself for a long while, she nodded in disgrace as tears welled out of her eyes. "J- Just spare Frank, and I'll marry you." "Haha..." Chaz's smile broadened as she resigned herself. "There's no reason to hide anything from your husband, right? Take it off." He was staring at her amorously even as he strode up, but Helen held on firmly, not inclined to let him win.
"What?" Chaz promptly scowled. "You'd rather your ex-husband die?" "I." Helen teared up but ultimately relaxed her fingers.
Chaz was smiling gleefully as he reached for her towel.
"Stop!" A bellow suddenly thundered from outside the hotel room, and the door was kicked wide open.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHelen turned to see that it was none other Frank, the one she wanted to see most.
"Frank..." she murmured in joy, but her delight soon faded as she remembered Chaz's threat.
Nonetheless, Frank strode inside and took her by the wrist. "We're leaving." "Frank." Helen hung her head, not budging and refusing to leave even as Frank tugged at her.
"What." Even before Frank could appear confused, Chaz flicked the dust off his shoulders and smiled as he walked over.
"You found us here—how incredible!" "You're asking for it." Frank glared at Chaz coldly, his killing intent ablaze.
"Haha! Calm down now—I know you're good and I'm no match for you, but don't forget that you're Helen's ex- husband now. Who she wants to be with is her decision." Turning toward Helen with a grin, Chaz asked, "Right, Helen?"
