Hans noticed Frank's scowl and immediately looked in the direction he was looking.
There, he saw Helen dining with a man he did not recognize, and she looked like she was having a good time.
Hans had never met Helen before, but he knew that she was Frank's ex-wife, and that he had done a lot for her.
If anything, it would be shocking if he could keep acting natural to see her having dinner with some other man.
"Should we change places, Mr. Lawrence?" Hans quickly asked.
Frank's expression returned to normal right then. "No. We stand apart now, and we're no more than strangers."
Hans, however, doubted that—would Frank have fought the Salazars and the Chandlers if he did not care?
Naturally, he did not have the balls to say it.
With that, they both strode inside, took a seat near the door, and ordered some simple dishes, which

Before they left, Hans barked, "The check, please."
Helen turned toward him at the loud call and found him and Frank ready to leave.
"Frank?" Helen was delighted to see Frank, not expecting Chaz to be that efficient.
She quickly got up to chase after Frank, while Chaz was left in his seat, perplexed and in awe of Burt's
efficiency—he had released Frank right after he asked?
As Helen caught up to Frank, she asked, "Frank, they released you?"
He nodded silently, and Helen exclaimed in joy, "Wonderful! Come on, let's go home. You have to
apologize properly to Aunt Jade—I know you both had a misunderstanding, but that's out of the way
now, and you can properly treat Luna—"
Frank raised a hand to stop her. "Hold it. Why should I apologize?"
Helen was left staring at his cold expression. "Why? Because she got someone to bail you out..."
Frank laughed coolly. "She did? Are you kidding me?"
Helen could feel Frank's rage and asked, perplexed, "What's your problem? She helped! How could
you behave like this?"
Frank snapped impatiently, "Why would I need her help? I'd be free even without her." "What..." Helen
was speechless, just as she turned and noticed Chaz still sitting at their table, realizing then why Frank
was upset. "Please, this is a misunderstanding—that's Chaz Graves from Southstream. We're just
having dinner, and it's not what you think!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Just having dinner?" Frank snorted in disdain. "With just the two of you? Who'd believe that?"
"Is that what you think of me?" Helen frowned, finding him unreasonable.
"No, you have nothing to do with me at all—we're already divorced," Frank retorted pettily.
Helen's eyes widened. "Chaz called Burt Yorkman to release you, and you'd think that of us?!"
"He called Burt? Why wasn't I aware?" Frank snorted, doubting her completely.
He knew for a fact that the Turnbulls, the Quills, and Trevor Zurich had all called him, but Chaz was not one of them!
"You wouldn't have been arrested if you knew everything!" Helen yelled tearfully. "Come with me right now! We have to see Aunt Jade—"
"I'm busy." Frank shook her off right then, knowing that Jade was the one who introduced Chaz to Helen.
