And as the Lane family got caught in the Yimmels' mess, Frank would have to do something.
One had to admit that Yora was cunning, as she was banking on Frank's connections and involvement once the Lanes formed an alliance with their family.
After all, an alliance between the Lanes and the Yimmels did not sound as ideal or mutually beneficial. In reality, the Yimmels would be leeching off the Lanes-specifically Frank.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe Yimmels wanted to leech off him? Sure they could, but they were not going to lord over him while they did.
In fact, they should be begging on their knees! If the Yimmels were so keen on their survival, the only option Frank would give them was to make them pay before allowing them to serve as vassals for the Lane family.

What else could she do to help Frank anyway? Trusting him was already the best form of support she could offer.
Hence, her tensed body relaxed as she basically leaned on Frank, quietly leaving everything up to him.
On the other hand, seeing that Helen was not saying anything, Cadell frowned and dissed, "Hah! And you still consider yourself Lanecorp's board chair, or the head of the Lane family? The way I see it, you're just Frank Lawrence's puppet." Content belongs to en.kikistoriesEveryone, including Frank, did a double take at his words.
et One must admit that Cadell was despicable, as saying something that would hurt Helen the most, with her pride as a strong, independent woman.
