Chapter 21
Frank shook his head. “Nope.”
Helen breathed a sigh of relief, and her knuckles eased.
Looking apologetic just then, she said, “Frank, I’m apologizing on behalf of my brother. Peter was being unreasonable–don’t stoop to his level.”
For them, everything was bygones after their divorce. That was why she did not want her family to start harassing Frank.
“I won’t. He should stay away if he knows what’s good for him,” Frank said with a snort.
“I will warn him,” Helen agreed.
As she picked up Peter’s medicine and left, Frank did not stop her as she slowly ventured into the
distance.
Suddenly, a blond youth intercepted her, grinning. “A moment please, Ms. Lane.”
Helen stared at the impudent youth warily. “Who are you?”
“Who I am doesn’t matter,” Blondie said with a smile. “My boss has admired you for a while and would like to have a chat with you.‘

“Sorry, but I’m busy.” She rejected the offer right away.
Blondie’s smile faded right away and growled, “My boss has taken a liking to your face. You can get all the money you want if you just spend the night with him. Just say the word–he really doesn’t lack

Frank saw it, however, but before he could stop Blondie, someone suddenly leapt out and sent Blondie flying with a kick!
Frank soon saw that it was Sean, with Gina soon hurrying to the scene after him. “Helen, what happened?”
Helen was still traumatized. “I don’t even know him, but he insists on taking me to see his ‘boss‘…”

“Oof…” Blondie gasped as he was sent flying.
“Nice!” The bystanders were suddenly applauding, naturally sympathetic since a pretty damsel like
