Jade smiled. "Oh, what are you saying? We're family—if you need anything, just ask. I'll definitely help however I can."
Henry nodded in satisfaction. "Helen's husband was arrested, and I'm hoping you would use your Southstream contacts to bail him out."
Jade promptly frowned at Helen—she did not need imagination to tell that the brat had asked Henry to persuade her.
After a long thought, she began, "It's not like I don't want to help, but he has broken the country's laws —how am I supposed to help?"
"I know Frank," Henry quickly said. "He's definitely being framed. Just get him out, and then we'll properly investigate the issue."
Helen dropped to her knees in front of Jade too, pleading, "Please, Aunt Jade. I'm begging you to save Frank."
When she was told that Burt refused to listen to Vicky, she was panicking since she could not think of anyone else who would bail Frank out.

you want me to kneel too?"
Jade flinched. "Are you crazy?"
She could understand Helen kneeling since Frank was her ex-husband, but did Henry have to go so far
for him too?!
"I will if anything happens to Frank," Henry replied.
Jade inhaled deeply and wheeled on Helen. "I'm sure you understand that there's a huge grudge
between me and Frank. I can help, but he must apologize personally."
"Not a problem—I'll definitely persuade him to do it." Helen agreed to it without hesitation.
She believed Frank would definitely be grateful to Jade anyway, and things would calm down between
them—it would be even better if Frank treated Luna.
Jade whipped out her phone and sent Helen a number, leaving her confused. "What's this?"
"Chaz Graves' number. Call him—he'll deal with this," Jade replied.
"Chaz has influence in Riverton?" Helen exclaimed in shock, remembering Chaz right then.
The Graves were one of Southstream's four families, and Helen remembered how she stuck out like a
sore thumb when she visited the Southstream Lanes' residence as a child.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe also became friends with Chaz at the time, though Helen rarely visited the Southstream Lanes later on, and they rarely kept in touch.
Jade chuckled coolly. "Why not? He's the chief of Seaham Martial Artists' Association, and his jurisdiction extends over every martial artist in Riverton, Seaham, and Southdam. His family business is spread over all three states as well."
"Really? That's amazing!" Helen breathed a long sigh of relief, convinced that Frank was saved.
She quickly stepped out to the hallway to call Chaz, and she quickly introduced herself when Chaz answered.
Chaz was surprised to receive her call.
Hearing that she was asking her to bail someone out, he certainly could not refuse such a frivolous request.
Naturally, he did not promise anything and instead said, "Let's meet up for dinner, Helen. It's been a while—I've missed you, and we can discuss anything when we meet."
