Helen had rushed to Ninedell Hotel after hearing from Chaz that Frank had a fight with Hubert.She was about to bring Frank and apologize to Hubert, but that was certainly moot now that Frankhad killed him.

There was no turning back now...

Even so, Helen refused to give up and gritted her teeth as she vowed, "It doesn't matter if you don'tunderstand me or accept my effort. I won't let you die... Never!”

With those words, she wiped away her tears and called Chaz. "Hey, I have a favor to ask...”

Frank was frustrated even as he left Ninedell Hotel, punching the steering wheel as he got into hiscar.

"Damn it!"

He knew that Helen would marry Chaz, but her reaction just now left him infatuated nonetheless.He knew the type of scum Chaz was, especially after Jaud told him about the trap that Chaz hadprepared for him on Chaz's own wedding day.

Would Frank stay away? The answer was evidently no

Frank had no idea what Chaz had going for him that Helen was so bent on marrying him. And yet,despite her seeming loyalty, she had to run all the way here because she was worried about him.It left Frank further frustrated and confused—they had cut ties from each other, so why would shebother?

That was when Frank looked up and saw the sole surviving Lionheart bodyguard whom he hadspared earlier.

Even as he walked, he was speaking on his phone, most likely to report to Titus.

Frank certainly did not fear Titus and alighted.

He was about to take the phone from the bodyguard and warn Titus, but the person on the otherend turned out to be someone else.

It was Chaz Graves!

"You?!"

The bodyguard spotted Frank just then.

He was feeling lucky after being spared before, only to replace the same reaper emerging from thedarkness of the car park.

He flinched in terror, not even replaceing the will to run.

"Continue."

However, Frank nodded at him, refraining from interrupting the bodyguard's conversation afterrealizing that it was Chaz.

Over the phone, Chaz was gloating. "Well, now that he's killed Titus’ men, that bastard is a deadman walking. I'll inform Titus myself, and Frank will breathe his last in two days."

HLT

The bodyguard leveled a flustered look at Frank.

However, Frank did not speak, so he raised his phone and said hesitantly, "Actually, Mr. Graves, I justsaw Helen Lane here..."

"Oh, that bitch?" Chaz snorted coolly from the other end. "She ran off as soon as she heard thatFrank might step on the toes of the Lionhearts, even calling me and pleading mercy for thatbastard.”

"S-She's going to leave. Shouldn't I escort her?”

"Nope." Chaz scoffed. "That dumb bitch is already worthless to me. She was so naive she believedme when I threatened to tell Titus about Frank and Vicky's affair.”

Frank paused at those words, his mind rapidly working out why Helen's actions contradicted herwords so much—Chaz was threatening her with his life!
