NovelEnglishYora, however, shook her head at the confused looks thrown her way. "But after all is said and done, I am still Mark Lane's wife... and I desire an alliance between the Yimmels and the Lanes as equals. What do you say to that?" "What?!" It was not just the Yimmels-even Helen was left dumbstruck by Yora's offer.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhat was Yora saying? An alliance, and at this stage? Was that even possible?! "Have you gone mad?!" Cadell sprang to his feet, snapping right then, "We still have our hostages, and our family is much more powerful than the Lanes! We can return to Bralog in one piece even if we fail to take over the Lane family or Lanecorp! Why should we ally ourselves with smooks like them?!" "Exactly, Madam Yimmel! There's just no reason for it!" "Are you perhaps in shock? Could you be delirious?" "Shut up! I'm still sane!" Yora snapped, glaring at Cadell and the rest. "I am still the matriarch, so you'll obey even if you don't like it or face punishment per family rules!" Her threat left the Yimmels deflated, but they were certainly upset, even whispering among themselves.
Yora made sure that they were silent before turning back to Frank, asking apprehensively, "How about it, Frank? Will you take my offer?" As the Lanecorp health and safety department officers and Helen looked on eagerly, Frank smiled and said, "No." "Frank!" Helen leapt up, pulling Frank as she cried anxiously, "Please, they still have Granduncle and Uncle Gavin, and they're clearly compromising a lot when they offered the alliance. We shouldn't..." She trailed off, unable to say the word 'overreach'.
"That's right." Peter reasoned with Frank as well. "It's already good enough that the Yimmels are willing to back down, and it's a major accomplishment if we can secure the Southstream Lanes release. We don't have to push them any further, do we?" Content belongs to en.kikistoriesFrank allowed them to finish but smiled and shook his head as he turned to Yora. "I refuse-because I have a better offer, if you're willing to listen." Seeing Frank's cunning smile, the Yimmels were left trading glances.
An alliance was the most they could offer in a way of compromise. Yet, not only was Frank refusing, but he had the cheek to suggest a counter-offer too? "Do tell," Yora said, showing no hint of anger as she calmed the key members and executives of the Yimmel family, who all looked shocked.

Shares and ownership over all Yimmel properties and businesses will be split with Lanecorp, with Lanecorp taking the majority percentage of over fifty-one percent." Content belongs to en.kikistories"What..." Hearing that the Yimmels shall hence be vassals of the Lane family sent the key members and executives of the Yimmel family into an uproar.
Their eyes went red, as all of them were glaring at Frank and ready to kill him where he stood.
"What the fuck?!" "Frank Lawrence! You've managed to one-up us, but you're already presuming to be our king?!" "Know your place!" "Madam Yimmel! That prick was never going to be reasonable!" Cadell was pointing at Frank as he snapped, "He was messing with us from the start! At this point, we just have to take him down, even if we have to suffer losses!"
