Chapter 1740
Huub appeared anxious, but he knew inwardly that he had won.
Gina was an idiot and a slave to the rich and important—she would never stop him and was an ally to a certain extent.
As for Frank, that gigolo was now in Blackwater and would never leave for the rest of his life.
Now, no one could stop Huub-Helen was as good as his!
Even as he thought that and led Helen and the others back inside the karaoke box, he spotted a familiar face in the lobby.
"Frank Lawrence?!"
He froze when he recognized the man, unable to react right then.
"What's wrong, Mr. Droitner?"
Both Gina and Helen were puzzled to see Huub suddenly freezing like a statue and spotted the same familiar face when they looked where he was looking.
Gina was a little angry as she exclaimed, "Frank?!'
"Frank! What are you doing here?!"
On the other hand, Helen was delighted-Frank would always appear at her most vulnerable and helpless moments.
She left Huub and walked over to Frank right away, wrapping her hands around his arm.
Frank was in turn surprised that Helen and the others would turn back, and he rubbed his nose as he chuckled awkwardly. "I heard that you'd be here for the exchange, so..."
"Wait!"
Helen exclaimed as she remembered, and stared at Frank in disbelief. "The kidnapper said someone set an ambush in Room 10 to catch her... Was that you?!"RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
She was smart, and Frank shrugged exasperatedly, not bothered to hide the fact. "It was me, but Horey Lindt is cunning-she never came, instead hiring some girl off the street to get the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom for her. And on that subject..." to
Frank's expression cool just then, as he strode up to the stunned Huub, pointing at him and snapping, "How dare you use a fake Bloodcrane Spiritbloom to trick Helen!"
"What?!"
Both Gina and Helen turned on Huub at Frank's accusation.
On the other hand, Huub was finally jolted into his senses and murmured without knowing it, "How did he make it out...?"
"Heh. Didn't expect this, did you?"
Frank chuckled coolly, interrupting
Huub's musing. "You may have sent
me to Blackwater, but a place like that would never hold me for long! Honestly, I'm impressed... You want Helen so badly that you'd frame me and get me arrested, stopping me from saving Gavin Lane. to
"That's one grudge too many that I have against you. And yet, you didn't stop there you tried to trick everyone with a fake Bloodcrane Spiritbloom!" "T-That's a lie!"
Huub was left stunned by Frank's accusations, as each struck him right where it hurt.
However, he soon had an idea and glowered furiously as he bellowed, "I know! So that's why the kidnapper was saying that my Bloodcrane Spiritbloom is fake!"
"What?"
Gina and Helen almost believed
Frank, only for Huub to accuse Frank in return. It was you! You switched the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom with a fake after we left! You must have been hiding in Room 10, waiting to frame me!" to
