NovelEnglishBurt returned to Lane Manor in half an hour and told Frank the information he had.
"I've found them. Both Gina and Cindy Zonda were taken by the Southstream Lanes." "The Southstream Lanes?" Helen was confused—were they not all family? Why would they abduct Gina and Cindy? Seeing that she did not realize what was happening, Frank stayed impassive as he pointed out, "They want to prove that they had nothing to do with us." While Helen scowled in realization, Frank continued, "Let's go. Even if Gina is a failure of a mother, blood runs thicker than water—in that sense, | can't stay out of this either." "Thank you, Frank." Helen could naturally tell that he would go with her to bring back Gina from the Southstream Lanes and was endlessly grateful.

Once they alighted outside their mansion and announced themselves, they were immediately encircled by the Southstream Lanes' bodyguards instead of being received.
A haughty boy stepped out of the mansion, laughing at Frank. "So, you're Frank Lawrence? Haha! You've to clooking for your own death!" "And who are you?" Frank remained calm despite being encircled, even asking the boy for his name.
"Me?" The boy chuckled in disdain. "I'm Jon Lane, second son of Gavin Lane!" Soon, more people poured out of the Southstream Lanes' mansion.
The ever rotund Jade Zahn was naturally among them, 1gghing as soon as she saw Frank. "I'm surprised you managed to escape the Graves and the Lionhearts!

The Southstream Lanes were suddenly silent, and it was Luna who strode forward, pursing her lips as she said, "Your father? Your mother got him killed ages ago. Did she never tell you?" "What?!" Helen froze in shock, but she was soon overcwith rage.
Gina had kept telling her that her father Mason Lane was a bastard, dumping her while he lived like a king with the Southstream Lanes.
That was why Helen was uncomfortable when Gina started an affair with Greg Marsh. But she never would have thought that her father was already dead, or that it was Gina who killed him! "There's a reason we chased Gina away." Gavin sighed, shaking his head. "Your father left an estate after his death, but Gina doesn't deserve a cent. That's why we've been holding it in escrow before passing it on to you."
