650,666	/src/Template/Ads/index.ctp (line 281) '{"alias":651383}'	No	2024-03-22 16:31	active	307	1072559197169237		The etymology of the word “Mohiniyattam” ("Dance of an enchantress") perpetuates limitations on its potential as a medium of expression. The over emphasis on enchantment and sensuousness as administered by some practitioners constrains the art form, diminishing it to a superficial display rather than encouraging exploration of its depth and complexity. This confinement to a stereotype impedes the evolution of Mohiniyattam, hindering its capacity to thrive as a dynamic cultural expression. Through my experiences growing up in the community, I've witnessed how this narrow focus perpetuates misconceptions and restricts the true essence of the dance form. I believe Mohiniyattam should be an open medium of expression, free from limiting agendas, accessible to all learners. To all those who are willing to seek.

"What's this?"<br /> <br /> Gina folded her arms across her chest and said flatly, "Lane Holdings has just gone public—that means the gap between you and Helen are growing ever further apart. Since you're no help to her in her career, all you would do is tie her down, and it's therefore ideal for you to divorce her sooner."<br /> <br /> Frank smiled bitterly. "Is this what Helen thinks, or is that what you think?"<br /> <br /> Gina glowered. "This is what every member of my family thinks. Henry may have arranged this marriage between you and Helen, but we've been kind to you as you freeloaded from us over the last three years. Sign this if you know what's good for you."<br /> <br /> Frank inhaled deeply.<br /> <br /> For three years, he utilized every connection and resources he had, helping Lane Holdings develop from a small business to a public company.<br /> <br /> And yet, the Lanes only considered him a freeloading husband… how ironic!<br /> <br /> Nonetheless, he said, "I can agree to the divorce, but let me see Helen first."<br /> <br /> "My daughter doesn't have time for you," Gina snapped coolly.<br /> <br /> "Really?" Frank chuckled. "She asked for a divorce but has no time for me?"<br /> <br /> "Hmph." Gina snorted. "So you're still in denial about the gap between you and my daughter. You'd never understand her burden when you don't even have a proper job."<br /> <br /> "No, I don't." Frank nodded in agreement. "But I won't sign this if I don't see her today."<br /> <br /> Bang!<br /> <br /> Gina slammed her hand on the table and glared at him savagely. "Know your place, Mr. Lawrence! I'm here talking to you to spare your dignity, so sign it already!"<br /> <br /> "Haha! Spare my dignity?" Frank reared his head in laughter before suddenly narrowing his eyes at Gina. "Lane Holdings hadn't grown all that much in three years, but you've already learned how to strut."<br /> <br /> "What—" Gina was left stumped.<br /> <br /> "That's enough," a voice spoke from upstairs, stopping Gina before she went on another rant.<br /> <br /> Frank turned to find Helen dressed in a black business suit as she strode down stairs toward them. With her devilish figure, fair skin, and ravishing beauty, she was a rare marvel of a woman.<br /> <br /> "You wanted to see me?" she said as she walked up to Frank. "Now, say what you want to say."<br /> <br /> The coldness in Frank's eyes faded as he looked at his wife. "Tell me why you want a divorce."<br /> <br /> When they walked down the aisle three years ago, the Lanes had nothing, but he and Helen had each other's backs and were sweet on each other. Frank in turn swore he would make her family the greatest dynasty in Riverton.<br /> <br /> However, as Lane Holdings grew their business with each passing day, Helen spent more time at the office, leading to their marriage cooling off. Even so, Frank felt both pleased and sympathetic that the young, naive maiden grew to become a strong, independent woman.<br /> <br /> Back at the present, Helen simply avoided the question and slid a debit card toward Frank. "I understand that you have your grievance, Frank, and I've done you wrong in this matter. There's ten million in here, and you can have the downtown villa—consider it your alimony."<br /> <br /> Frank sighed. "Even now, you're still convinced money solves everything?"<br /> <br /> "Of course." Helen nodded. "If it's not solved, that just means you haven't thrown enough money at it."<br /> <br /> Frank shook his head in disappointment. "Lane Holdings is worth 200 million, and that's not enough for you?"<br /> <br /> Helen spread her arms and looked pointedly around them. "You've gotten too comfortable for too long, Frank—you're shallow and content with pocket change, which is why this manor will be where it ends. But for me, this is just the start."<br /> <br /> "Indeed… I am shallow, but who is insightful, then?"<br /> <br /> Frank asked, shrugging. "Is it you, or perhaps it's Sean Wesley?"<br /> <br /> Helen was taken aback, surprised that Frank knew about Sean despite being a shut-in. <br /> <br /> While she had grown close with Sean as of late, she only wanted to build a connection with him to further develop Lane Holdings.<br /> <br /> She was just about to explain that to Frank, but she stopped herself and sighed instead. "Yes, he is the heir to an elite family here in Riverton, and he has great foresight. With their wealth and influence, there is no harm in an alliance with them—only profit."<br /> <br /> Frank nodded in agreement, knowing that nothing he could say would change her mind.<br /> <br /> His wife has changed, and there was no going back for them.<br /> <br /> "In that case, I wish you the best of luck," Frank said. <br /> <br /> Helen had already signed the divorce agreement, and Frank put his signature to it as well.<br /> <br /> Then, his gaze cooled as he pushed the debit card back toward the mother and daughter duo. "You can keep this. From now on, all ties between us are cut."<br /> <br /> "You're just putting on airs." Gina snorted and rolled her eyes, but she quickly retrieved the debit card.<br /> <br /> On the other hand, Helen felt her eyes welling up with tears as she watched Frank leave. There was no sense of relief—only one of hollowness, as if she had lost something important. <br /> <br /> "Mom…" Helen murmured. "I think I'm regretting this a little."<br /> <br /> "What's there to regret? Just remember to hang out with Mr. King more," Gina rebuked her sternly. "Just you wait—our family will squeeze our way into the ranks of Riverton's elite soon enough!"<br /> <br /> <br /> Chapter 2<br /> <br /> As Frank strode out of Lane Manor, he turned to look at the place he lived at for three years.<br /> <br /> He had come here all alone and now left empty-handed.<br /> <br /> Just then, a Rolls-Royce sped toward him from a distance, stopping just beside him. <br /> <br /> The door opened, and a middle-aged man dressed sharply in a suit alighted, grinning broadly as he jogged up to Frank. "Mr. Lawrence…"<br /> <br /> "What are you doing here?" Frank asked as he stared at the man—he was Trevor Zurich, the CEO of Trevor International. <br /> <br /> "I've recently partnered with your wife for a development project in West City, and I've come to discuss the details with her," Trevor admitted.<br /> <br /> Frank nodded but said, "There's no need for a discussion—Helen now has the Wesley family's backing and doesn't need ours, and she's no longer my wife."<br /> <br /> "What?!" Trevor exclaimed, flabbergasted. "What's going on?"<br /> <br /> "Helen and I got divorced," Frank admitted. "From now on, there's no connection between myself and the Lanes."<br /> <br /> Then, turning toward Trevor and gently clapping him on the shoulder, Frank said, "Thanks for your help over the last three years, brother."<br /> <br /> While Trevor's business was mostly based abroad, he was asked to return to support the Lanes and basically earned zero profit over that period of time. <br /> <br /> Even so, Trevor promptly bowed his head and said, "No, Mr. Lawrence—it's my honor to work in your service… that said, why would Ms. Lane suddenly divorce you? Is the Wesley boy responsible for this?"<br /> <br /> Frowning, Trevor clapped himself on the chest and declared, "In that case, I'll personally visit Ms. Lane and talk things out with her."<br /> <br /> Over the last three years, the only reason he partnered with Lane Holdings was because Frank asked. The Lanes were so far beneath him that they did not even deserve to lick his boots, let alone his partnership!<br /> <br /> How shortsighted Helen was, divorcing Lawrence just because her company went public!<br /> <br /> Nonetheless, Frank shook his head. "Forget it. Helen and I are divorced—we have nothing to do with each other now. You can go if there's nothing else."<br /> <br /> Trevor smacked himself on the forehead as he remembered. "Actually, there's something I need to tell you. Remember the wonderroot you asked me to find? Well, I've found it, but…"<br /> <br /> Frank wheeled on him right then, asking, "But what?" <br /> <br /> "But it's a family heirloom of the Turnbulls. There's no way they're selling it," Trevor replied, though his tone soon changed sharply. "However, I've also caught wind that Walter Turnbull's only daughter was afflicted with a terrible illness five years ago, and she doesn't have long to live. The good news is that she's here in Riverton, and if you help her, Mr. Lawrence, the wonderroot would definitely be yours."<br /> <br /> Frank narrowed his eyes—he really needed the wonderroot, especially after that fight at South Sea three years ago.<br /> <br /> With his strength greatly diminished, the only way to restore himself to peak condition was through Mother Nature's greatest treasures. <br /> <br /> As such, there was no way he could miss out on the wonderroot!<br /> <br /> His gaze flashing sharply, Frank asked, "I take it that you've discussed the matter with the Turnbulls?<br /> <br /> Trevor gulped, sweat appearing over his forehead as he said, "Of course—I'd never try to deceive you. Walter Turnbull himself promised the wonderroot should his daughter be treated, along with any other condition you care to state."<br /> <br /> Frank clasped his hands behind his back and did not press the issue. "In that case, let's pay the Turnbulls a visit."<br /> <br /> Delighted, Trevor opened the door for Frank and was just about to get in himself when a BMW sped toward them and parked in front of Lane Manor.<br /> <br /> Peter Lane—Helen's younger brother—promptly alighted and hurried toward Trevor. <br /> <br /> "Have you finished your discussion with my sister, Mr. Zurich?" Peter asked. "Why don't you stay a while longer?"<br /> <br /> "Hmph." Trevor shot him a look and snorted in disdain.<br /> <br /> He quickly got in his Rolls-Royce and left—there was no need to play nice with the Lanes now that Frank and Helen were divorced.<br /> <br /> Naturally, his reaction left Peter, who was left wondering how he had upset Trevor, dumbfounded. He had not done a thing!<br /> <br /> Then, he was left gaping as Trevor's Rolls-Royce sped past him, unable to believe what he had just seen.<br /> <br /> What was Frank doing in Trevor's car?! What the hell was going on?!<br /> <br /> -<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Helen was sitting in her study, glancing at her watch from time to time.<br /> <br /> Trevor said he would be visiting just this morning, but it was already past noon!<br /> <br /> Gina was worried too and urged her, "Maybe you should call Mr. Zurich and ask."<br /> <br /> "No," Helen replied. "He never specified a time, so we should wait."<br /> <br /> "But the West City project is so important," Gina complained. "You need to be more proactive here—just call him!"<br /> <br /> While Helen frowned in thought, Gina was losing her mind. "I'll call him if you won't."<br /> <br /> "Fine, I'll do it." Helen sighed, worried that her mother would make a mess of things.<br /> <br /> Though she was hesitant, she made the call, and Trevor soon answered. <br /> <br /> Even though she was talking on the phone, her expression was mild and her tone polite. "Hello, Mr. Zurich. I was just wondering what time you are coming by? I would like to be on hand to receive you."<br /> <br /> "Actually, Ms. Lane, I'm afraid that I'm withdrawing from our partnership," Trevor replied coolly.<br /> <br /> "Huh? What… Why?" The sudden bombshell left Helen in a daze. <br /> <br /> "You see, I believed you to be loyal, but it seems that I've misjudged you." Trevor scoffed. "I really wouldn't dare keep characters like you around myself, so consider our partnership annulled."<br /> <br /> And with that, he hung up, leaving Helen dumbfounded and utterly confused.<br /> <br /> What was going on?! She had always shown Trevor due respect and never offended him. What on earth was wrong with her character?<br /> <br /> "So? What did Mr. Zurich say?" Gina quickly asked just then.<br /> <br /> "He's calling off our partnership," Helen murmured.<br /> <br /> "What?!" Gina exclaimed. "Why?"<br /> <br /> "I don't know!" Helen retorted, rubbing between her brows.<br /> <br /> Peter rushed into the room just then, and seeing both his mother and sister, he asked, "Helen, did you finish your discussion with Mr. Zurich?"<br /> <br /> "Discussion?! He never came at all!" Gina snapped angrily. "And he just annulled our partnership!"<br /> <br /> Peter was left gaping. "What?! But I just saw him outside!"<br /> <br /> "What did you say?!" Helen exclaimed in disbelief—if Trevor actually came, did that not mean that he left without coming inside the manor?! Why?!<br /> <br /> Peter suddenly gasped as he smacked himself on the thigh. "It was Frank. That bstrd must have been talking to Mr. Zurich… I mean, I just saw him get into Mr. Zurich's car myself!"<br /> <br /> "Urgh, that must be it," Gina groaned as she realized with a start. "That good-for-nothing usually looks down-to-earth, but he turns out to be so vile, messing with us before he left!"<br /> <br /> Helen frowned but waved them off. "No. He's not the type who runs his mouth."<br /> <br /> She more or less knew Frank after being married to him for three years, and she never once found him badmouthing anyone.<br /> <br /> "Come on, Helen. You can never tell what lurks beneath a friendly face!" Peter exclaimed indignantly. "He's been staying under our roof for three years and knows everything about us. He would have no trouble slandering us!"<br /> <br /> "Peter's right," Gina agreed adamantly. "Why would Mr. Zurich suddenly leave when he's already at our doorstep?"<br /> <br /> "Yeah. He must have talked."<br /> <br /> Helen, who had been pacing around, found that her mother's words made sense—there was no explaining Trevor's strange behavior otherwise!<br /> <br /> Her knuckles clenched right then.<br /> <br /> How could Frank do this?! She never mistreated him!<br /> <br /> <br /> Chapter 3<br /> <br /> Frank was napping in Trevor's car when his phone rang, waking him up.<br /> <br /> Seeing that it was Helen, he answered and promptly heard her asking coldly, "Frank, are you with Mr. Zurich right now?"<br /> <br /> Frank glanced at Trevor, who was sitting beside him. "Yeah."<br /> <br /> Helen took a deep breath to calm her rising blood pressure—it seemed that Peter was not lying!<br /> <br /> "You disappoint me, Frank," she growled. "If you're upset, you can tell it to my face—why backstab my family?"<br /> <br /> Frank rubbed his temple as he replied, "Would you believe it if I told you that I didn't?"<br /> <br /> "Then why would Mr. Zurich leave right after arriving at my doorstep?!" Helen demanded. "He also annulled our partnership!"<br /> <br /> "Trevor's decision is his own and has nothing to do with me."<br /> <br /> Convinced that Frank was a coward and would not admit to it, Helen was left seething and growling at every word. "You really disappoint me."<br /> <br /> Frank's voice suddenly turned cool as well. "It seems all you care about is what you want to believe and not the actual truth. I have no idea what Peter told you nor am I willing to explain myself—just don't bother me with stuff like this ever again."<br /> <br /> And with those words, he hung up, the veins on the back of his hand throbbing as his eyes flashed coolly.<br /> <br /> To think that Helen never trusted him even after three years of marriage, pinning the blame on him just over mere speculation.<br /> <br /> Perhaps she really believed that he was a freeloading shut-in too!<br /> <br /> Beside him, Trevor could certainly tell the call was from the Lanes. He asked tentatively, "Shall I straighten them out, Mr. Lawrence?"<br /> <br /> Frank sighed and waved him off. "Forget it. Let's just distance ourselves from them from now on."<br /> <br /> He could not bring himself to destroy them just yet, so they could rot for all he cared.<br /> <br /> -<br /> <br /> Soon, Trevor's Rolls-Royce slowly entered the Turnbulls' hilltop villa.<br /> <br /> Seemingly having been informed of their arrival, a servant was on hand to receive them, leading them to the drawing room.<br /> <br /> After bringing them tea, he said, "Please rest your legs for a moment, gentlemen. I shall inform Mr. Turnbull of your arrival."<br /> <br /> After the servant turned and headed upstairs, Frank looked around and muttered quietly, "There really aren't many servants around here, are there?"<br /> <br /> "You shouldn't underestimate them, Mr. Lawrence," Trevor told him. "Walter is merely the Turnbulls' figurehead in Riverton, while the majority of their influence remains in Morhen."<br /> <br /> "Their heiress Vicky is herself extraordinary, establishing a transnational trading conglomerate single-handedly five years ago and accumulating billions in wealth. She's also an apprentice to Riverton's governor and a prodigy of martial arts—she would be an elite among Riverton's youth if not for her illness."<br /> <br /> Frank took a sip of his tea and chuckled. "You really think highly of her! How does she compare to Helen?"<br /> <br /> "Haha!" Trevor laughed, not holding back since Frank and Helen were divorced anyway. "That's like comparing a wolf to a mere sheep."<br /> <br /> Inspiration struck just then, and Trevor grinned. "By the way, Mr. Lawrence, you're a gentleman with dignity, wisdom, and compassion, while Ms. Turnbull is a ravishing beauty with wit to boot. Should you two tie the knot, it shall certainly be a profound marriage—and I, Trevor Zurich, am all too willing to be your guarantor."<br /> <br /> "Bleurgh!" Frank almost choked on his tea and shot Trevor a glare. "Worry about yourself, not me."<br /> <br /> Trevor scratched his head awkwardly, surprised that Frank was completely uninterested.<br /> <br /> Just then, he heard rushed footsteps and promptly got up to greet the man approaching them. "Mr. Turnbull."<br /> <br /> Walter held his hand in turn and asked excitedly, "Trevor, old friend… Where's this miracle healer you've spoken of?"<br /> <br /> Trevor promptly made the introduction. "This is him—Frank Lawrence. He has been training in seclusion at the south pole, and his abilities as a healer are extraordinary."<br /> <br /> Walter's smile stiffened when he saw how young Frank looked. "Are you joking, Trevor? He's so young!"<br /> <br /> "I'd never lie to you, Mr. Turnbull," Trevor told him solemnly. "If Frank fails to heal your daughter too, then no one can."<br /> <br /> While Walter was absolutely skeptical about Frank, he had no choice but to try, especially when Trevor was vouching for him.<br /> <br /> "In that case, please come with me, Mr. Lawrence."<br /> <br /> "Lead the way, sir," Frank said flatly, and he and Trevor followed Walter to a room on the second floor.<br /> <br /> Inside, Frank found a young woman lying in bed. <br /> <br /> She was exactly the ravishing beauty Trevor had described, with flawless fair skin, a clear dewy gaze, and a captivating face. <br /> <br /> Even if she appeared sickly skinny, there was no hiding her haughty presence—it actually added to her beauty.<br /> <br /> A woman in a black suit stood beside her bed, appearing to be her bodyguard.<br /> <br /> Walter hurried to his daughter just then, assuring her, "Vicky, Trevor just got you a healer. He'll definitely help you this time."<br /> <br /> "Thank you so much, Mr. Zurich." Vicky forced a smile, but she knew her condition best.<br /> <br /> After all, she had countless consultations with other healers over the last five years… and none of them helped.<br /> <br /> Naturally, she did not pin her hopes on Frank either. If anything, her gratitude was merely a formality. <br /> <br /> "You're exaggerating, Ms. Turnbull." Trevor smiled and turned toward Frank. "She's in your hands now, Mr. Lawrence."<br /> <br /> Frank nodded, perfectly comfortable as he walked up to hold Vicky's wrist.<br /> <br /> Vicky did a double take, surprised that he was so young, and watched as Frank's brow wrinkled and eased intermittently.<br /> <br /> After a while, he asked, "Do you frequently engage in martial arts, Ms. Turnbull?"<br /> <br /> "I've trained a little with my mentor, mostly for my health," Vicky replied softly.<br /> <br /> "To what extent?"<br /> <br /> Vicky frowned slightly. "Initiate—why are you asking about that instead of my condition?"<br /> <br /> Frank smiled conditionally in turn. "Because your martial arts training caused your condition."<br /> <br /> "What?!" Everyone exclaimed in shock—martial arts could lead to such an illness?!<br /> <br /> "Bullshit!" Yara Quill—the black-clad bodyguard standing beside Vicky's bed—snapped right then. "Vicky was learning the Boltsmacker, a technique passed down in my clan for generations! If that caused her illness, why would my father be fine?"<br /> <br /> "Not everyone is attuned to martial arts," Frank said flatly. "The technique you speak of is conditioned for men and incompatible for women. Vicky's Ki would stagnate, causing vein and nerve blockage—moreover, she has already reached Initiate. While it is an accomplishment, she is lucky to only be bedridden. In serious cases, her physique would crumble as she loses all her Ki, while her veins would rupture and potentially kill her."<br /> <br /> Turning around to look at Yara just then, he added, "You should stop too. You'd be paralyzed in three years, give or take, if you continue."<br /> <br /> "Shut up!" Yara swung a palm at Frank's face right then!<br /> <br /> Vicky was like a sister to her—they trained under her father together, and she was constantly by Vicky's side ever since Vicky got sick.<br /> <br /> Yara was certainly convinced that Frank was driving a wedge between them and obviously telling her that her clan's technique was a sham.<br /> <br /> She must straighten him out to quell the spite she felt!<br /> <br /> "Stop!" Trevor exclaimed as he paled in shock—he had never expected Vicky's bodyguard to actually attack Frank!<br /> <br /> However, it was not as if he was worried about Frank. Instead, he was just concerned for the ignorant brat!<br /> <br /> <br /> Chapter 4<br /> <br /> Pow! Pow! Pow!<br /> <br /> The air in the room cracked.<br /> <br /> Yara struck with power and determination, exchanging over a dozen blows with Frank in no time at all.<br /> <br /> The latter had no intention to hurt, however, merely doing enough to defend himself.<br /> <br /> Even if he was not in peak condition, Yara was never going to best him.<br /> <br /> "Stop it, Yara," Vicky snapped from the bed just then.<br /> <br /> Yara did as she was told, though she was also giving Vicky a wounded look. "That brat…"<br /> <br /> "That's enough," Vicky said flatly. "Show some manners—Mr. Lawrence is here to help me."<br /> <br /> In reality, Vicky was upset with Frank as well, since Yara's father was her mentor.<br /> <br /> However, as the heiress to her family legacy and herself a martial arts prodigy, she should stay calm at all times.<br /> <br /> Moreover, she could immediately tell that Frank's abilities were outstanding when he exchanged blows with Yara, and that he was clearly holding back. <br /> <br /> That was why she told Yara to stop—Yara would definitely lose if he went all out.<br /> <br /> Naturally, Yara would not disobey Vicky, and she quietly backed away.<br /> <br /> Vicky then turned toward Frank and asked, "Since you've stated the cause of my condition, Mr. Lawrence, what treatment are you suggesting?"<br /> <br /> Walter and Trevor turned as well, only to find Frank lowering his head, stroking his chin in thought and frowning.<br /> <br /> "Mr. Lawrence, could there be some difficulty?" Trevor asked gingerly.<br /> <br /> "No, it's a minor condition that can be treated quickly," Franks replied as he slowly looked up and turned to Vicky. "I didn't expect the technique you learned to be so rubbish. You can walk again, but all your progress would be lost… That said, I've already perfected that technique, so just train in the way I instruct you to and you'll be in peak form within the year."<br /> <br /> Yara's knuckles clenched as she glared at Frank. "Even if it's rubbish, you were powerless against my clan's technique."<br /> <br /> Even Trevor was left feeling awkward—Frank was being too frank! He could at least spare the heiress of Boltsmacker some dignity because she was standing right there!<br /> <br /> Nonetheless, Frank turned toward Yara and said bluntly, "I'm only showing this once. Watch closely."<br /> <br /> As he directed his Ki with both hands, his clothes began to flap loudly.<br /> <br /> Boom.<br /> <br /> Frank took a step forward and suddenly shot toward Yara like a bullet!<br /> <br /> Yara smiled—he was the one attacking. She never forced him!<br /> <br /> She charged her palm with Bolstmacker, meeting Frank's attack instantly!<br /> <br /> "Don't hurt him, Yara!" Walter cried.<br /> <br /> "Please hold back, Mr. Lawrence!" Trevor exclaimed at the same time.<br /> <br /> At the same time, Vicky was staring fixedly at Frank, her mouth hanging wide open. "I-Is that Boltsmacker?!"<br /> <br /> There was no mistaking it when she practiced it for over a decade. Frank actually used a secret technique of the Quills—but when did he learn it?!<br /> <br /> And as she observed him, she could see that he was clearly wielding it over a thousand times more effectively than Yara!<br /> <br /> Pow.<br /> <br /> On the other hand, Yara's face fell as she felt the agony in her arm when she caught Frank's palm.<br /> <br /> It was like a tidal wave with the crushing force of a mountain, and it seemed endless—Yara was sent flying and crashing into the wall behind! <br /> <br /> Bang!<br /> <br /> Her cheeks left flushed as her Ki flared, while she almost vomited her guts out.<br /> <br /> Walter was left turning slowly toward Trevor with a look that seemed to ask what on earth Frank was.<br /> <br /> Trevor certainly noted Walter's confusion, but he had no idea what to say in reply either. <br /> <br /> Still, he wiped the sweat from his brow and heaved a long sigh of relief, thankful that Frank held back. If he actually hurt Yara, there was definitely going to be a serious grudge after!<br /> <br /> As Yara leaned against the wall with a look of shock and confusion, she snapped, "W-When did you steal my clan's technique?"<br /> <br /> "When you used it just now," Frank replied nonchalantly.<br /> <br /> Vicky was left gasping—all it took was one look? <br /> <br /> And he improved it in no time at all!<br /> <br /> That acumen for martial arts was exponentially above hers!<br /> <br /> On the other hand, Yara could almost black out.<br /> <br /> It took Vicky a year, and herself five years to learn the Boltsmacker, only for this brat to learn it in an instant?! <br /> <br /> Talk about frustrating!<br /> <br /> "Hahaha!" Walter suddenly laughed. <br /> <br /> He was no martial artist, but even he could see how easily Frank bested Yara.<br /> <br /> And seeing that Frank was no average Joe, he was no longer holding contempt like he did when Frank first arrived.<br /> <br /> "You're as amazing a healer as you are a martial artist, Mr. Lawrence! See, Yara? You never know a man until you've exchanged blows, but that can wait for now… Is Vicky's condition treatable right now, Mr. Lawrence?"<br /> <br /> "I would need acupuncture needles to clear Ms. Turnbull's veins," Frank replied.<br /> <br /> "Not a problem—we have every medical equipment possibly needed." Walter smiled and promptly told a servant to fetch it.<br /> <br /> After Frank got the box, he said, "Now please undress, Ms. Turnbull."<br /> <br /> "What?" Vicky's expression stiffened in shock.<br /> <br /> "H-Hold on," Walter quickly butted in as well. "Why? Is this necessary?"<br /> <br /> "I need to reanimate Ms. Turnbull's Ki with at least forty-nine needles," Frank explained. "That can't be done with her clothes on."<br /> <br /> Walter frowned. "Is there no other way?"<br /> <br /> "I can extract her stagnated Ki, but it won't disperse with her clothes on," Frank replied, shaking his head. "It might ultimately flow back into her body, making the entire treatment pointless."<br /> <br /> "Walter, Mr. Lawrence is helping Ms. Turnbull here," Trevor reasoned. "As a healer, he won't do anything out of line."<br /> <br /> "Yes." Walter agreed but remained hesitant nonetheless. "But Vicky's engaged…"<br /> <br /> "That's enough," Vicky snapped, frowning. "Treatment has nothing to do with engagements."<br /> <br /> She especially hated it when her father mentioned the engagement, and she had been working hard to free herself from that. If anything, her family and her father's attempts to indoctrinate her about the boons of a strategic marriage only made her even more resistant.<br /> <br /> And right now, she wanted to recover as soon as possible instead of staying bedridden or allowing someone else to dictate her life.<br /> <br /> "I'm counting on you, Mr. Lawrence," she said and turned to Yara. "Help me get changed."<br /> <br /> Walter did not press the issue, knowing that she was upset. Sighing, he quietly led Trevor out of the room.<br /> <br /> Yara walked up to Vicky in turn, slowly lifting her blanket—Vicky's thin white silk pajamas barely hid her perfect figure.<br /> <br /> After Yara undressed her and Vicky lay naked before Frank, his pupils dilated.<br /> <br /> He could not help being impressed by her perfect body, and even if he had seen plenty himself, he could not help ogling…<br /> <br /> Chapter 5<br /> <br /> "Are you done staring?" Yara could not help snapping at Frank, certainly able to see that he was staring fixedly at Vicky.<br /> <br /> Even if Frank proved his martial arts prowess, she suspected that he was taking advantage of Vicky, claiming that undressing her was for treatment.<br /> <br /> Frank smiled, showing no sign of embarrassment as he said earnestly, "I couldn't help staring just then. Ms. Turnbull is just that mesmerizing."<br /> <br /> "Haha." Vicky laughed. "Honest, aren't you?"<br /> <br /> She was actually surprised that Frank would admit to it so boldly, unlike self-proclaimed gentlemen who would never admit to their actions. <br /> <br /> Suddenly flashing a vague smile at Frank, she added, "You can look as much as you want if you heal me."<br /> <br /> "You don't have to. Beautiful things are unforgettable from the very first gaze," Frank said, shaking his head.<br /> <br /> Taking out a needle, his fingers brushed over the smooth skin on her chest, feeling a cool sensation just then.<br /> <br /> Vicky gasped and shuddered as he inserted the needle just above her nape.<br /> <br /> Then, he took out another needle, brushing past her belly and inserting it beneath her navel.<br /> <br /> This continued over the next thirty or so needles, each leaving Vicky reeling with agony.<br /> <br /> Her fingers clenched on the sheets as she sweated bullets over her forehead, her chest heaving as her breathing turned ragged.<br /> <br /> Frank certainly noticed that through the corner of his eye. <br /> <br /> Even though he was married to Helen for three years and lived together, they never consummated.<br /> <br /> Moreover, he was in his prime, so he could not help being restless seeing such a ravishing beauty lying naked before him.<br /> <br /> Biting his tongue, he dispelled those thoughts with the pain and kept working.<br /> <br /> Beside them, Yara kept wiping Vicky's sweat with a towel.<br /> <br /> After a long while, Vicky finally asked through gritted teeth, "How much longer?"<br /> <br /> "This is the last one."<br /> <br /> Vicky breathed a sigh of relief—the pain was finally going to be over. "In that case, please hurry."<br /> <br /> Frank nodded and used his fingers to measure the distance to a spot beneath her navel…<br /> <br /> Noticing that something was out of place, Vicky quickly asked, "Where will the last needle be inserted?"<br /> <br /> "Five inches beneath the navel."<br /> <br /> Vicky froze, her fair cheeks flushing just then. Five inches beneath the navel, was that not…?!<br /> <br /> Though she had been educated with the teachings of multiple cultures, she was conservative in nature—if anything, she was at her limit when Frank asked her to undress to be treated.<br /> <br /> She was certainly embarrassed that a needle would be inserted on her crotch!<br /> <br /> On the other hand, Frank did not care—he had seen everything, so there was nothing out of line now.<br /> <br /> In fact, he inserted the needle before Vicky realized it, and she felt a burst of agony extending across her body. She clenched her teeth and closed her eyes, stiffening like a bowstring as all her internal energies faded right then.<br /> <br /> She withstood the pain using her embarrassment and stopped herself from making a sound.<br /> <br /> Frank was actually surprised to find her showing such incredible endurance—it would hurt when one's Ki was broken up. She was definitely a martial arts prodigy, able to stop herself from making a sound.<br /> <br /> Nearby, Yara was beside herself with worry, seeing her face contorting. "Are you alright, Vicky?"<br /> <br /> "Urgh… I'm fine," Vicky breathed vapors as the pain faded.<br /> <br /> Even if the physique she honed over a decade had been lost, she felt like all her veins were cleared and finally felt her limbs again.<br /> <br /> And with Frank's improved version of the Boltsmacker, she would have no trouble regaining her peak form in a year!<br /> <br /> Yara looked on as Vicky raised her hands, exclaiming excitedly, "Do you feel better, Ms. Turnbull?"<br /> <br /> "Yeah," Vicky replied, her eyes warm with excitement. <br /> <br /> It felt amazing to take back control over her own body!<br /> <br /> She slowly turned toward Frank. "Your abilities as a healer are extraordinary, Mr. Lawrence."<br /> <br /> "I too marvel at your endurance," Frank replied.<br /> <br /> Vicky smiled but asked hesitantly, "Actually… Do you mind leaving the room?"<br /> <br /> Frank finally remembered that Vicky was still naked, and he had no reason to stay now that she was better.<br /> <br /> He turned and left, heading to the drawing room.<br /> <br /> Walter and Trevor, who were waiting for a while, were delighted to see him. <br /> <br /> "How's Ms. Turnbull?" Trevor quickly asked.<br /> <br /> "She's fine now," Frank replied.<br /> <br /> "Really?" Walter asked in disbelief.<br /> <br /> That was when Vicky arrived downstairs after changing into fresh clothes.<br /> <br /> Seeing that she was no longer bedridden, Walter's eyes went red, and he promptly gathered her in his arms.<br /> <br /> "You've really recovered, Vicky… Thank goodness!" he cried. "This is wonderful!"<br /> <br /> "Dad, I'm fine—don't worry." Vicky smiled. "All thanks to Mr. Lawrence."<br /> <br /> "Haha!" Walter laughed heartily as he turned toward Frank. "Don't worry, Mr. Lawrence—Trevor told me about the wonderroot. I've already asked for it to be delivered from the capital, and you'll have it in three days."<br /> <br /> Frank frowned, but before he could say anything, Trevor walked up to him and whispered under his breath, "Don't worry, Mr. Lawrence. I promise with my life that the Turnbulls would not renege on their promise."<br /> <br /> Noting his confidence, Frank's frown ease. "Since Trevor here vouches for you, I shall take your word for it. Since your daughter has made a full recovery, we shan't impose."<br /> <br /> With that, he turned to leave, leaving Vicky surprised.<br /> <br /> An accomplished martial artist and an outstanding healer?! They should definitely be keeping him!<br /> <br /> "Please wait, Mr. Lawrence. Allow me to walk with you and thank you properly," she said and promptly gave chase with Yara in tow.<br /> <br /> Beside them, Trevor was grinning—she certainly had a keen eye as one would expect of the heiress apparent of the Turnbulls.<br /> <br /> "So, Walter. What do you think of Mr. Lawrence?" he asked.<br /> <br /> Walter nodded and exclaimed in awe, "He's gifted in both martial arts and medicine… Those two talents alone would set him apart even from the many bigwigs in the capital."<br /> <br /> Trevor chuckled. "I won't lie to you—that's not all of his talents. There won't be a handful who would compare to him even across the country, just as there are hardly any ladies who deserve him. Still, I'm sure your daughter would be one of them."<br /> <br /> Walter smiled as he realized what Trevor was saying. "You flatter me, but my daughter is engaged."<br /> <br /> "Haha!" Trevor simply laughed. "But she still isn't wed yet. You still have time to reconsider, and do keep Mr. Lawrence in mind when you do."<br /> <br /> Walter suddenly frowned and turned toward Trevor. "I'm actually curious… you used to work abroad. Why have you been lingering in Riverton for years now? And you seemed to defer to Mr. Lawrence a whole lot…"<br /> <br /> In the end, any strategic marriage ought to be set between two important families.<br /> <br /> Even if Frank was an extraordinary individual, he has no clans backing him and therefore would not mean much to the Turnbulls.<br /> <br /> Trevor should know as he was the heir of the Zurichs, and it was actually weird that he would vouch for Frank so enthusiastically.<br /> <br /> "Haha. I'm afraid I can't comment on that, Walter." Trevor shrugged. "But you should really think about what I said. Also, I shall get going now that our business here is done. Please hurry and bring Mr. Lawrence the wonderroot."<br /> <br /> Walter was left mulling Trevor's words after he left, and he promptly called in his secretary to do a background check on Frank.<br /> <br /> <br /> Chapter 6<br /> <br /> A Rolls-Royce stopped beside Frank just as he stepped outside the Turnbulls' villa.<br /> <br /> Vicky alighted, asking, "Where are you staying, Mr. Lawrence? May I offer you a ride?"<br /> <br /> Frank thought about it and sighed. "I was just planning to stay at a hotel."<br /> <br /> He did not own any house in Riverton, and he could not return to Lane Manor after his divorce with Helen.<br /> <br /> "Oh…" Vicky did a double take but did not press the issue. "Then you're in luck—we have over fifty hotels in Riverton. Allow me to arrange for a suite, so I can deliver you the wonderroot when it arrives."<br /> <br /> Frank thought about it and nodded. "Sure."<br /> <br /> He got into the backseat with Vicky while Yara drove, though she stopped at the gates. <br /> <br /> "What's wrong?" Vicky asked.<br /> <br /> "There's a car stopped ahead, and I don't know what for," Yara complained.<br /> <br /> Frank peered out of the car window and noticed a man weaning a suit standing by the security booth.<br /> <br /> "Please inform Mr. Turnbull of my arrival. Tell him that it's Sean Wesley—my family owns a major business in Riverton."<br /> <br /> With those words, he whipped out a stack of hundred dollar bills and handed it to the security guard. <br /> <br /> The security guard promptly nodded gratefully. "Yes, please wait a moment. I'll inform Mr. Turnbull right away."<br /> <br /> Frank narrowed his eyes when he heard Sean's name and studied the man just as Yara said, "It seems he's here to see Mr. Turnbull."<br /> <br /> "Ignore them," Vicky said flatly. <br /> <br /> Outside, Sean was soon back in his car—the security guard allowed him to drive inside, as Walter clearly gave his permission.<br /> <br /> There was a pretty face riding shotgun in his car—it was Helen.<br /> <br /> "Don't worry," Sean assured her confidently. "I heard that Walter Turnbull's daughter is bedridden, and I brought along a 100 year-old panacea cap for her. With something so divine, he'll definitely help you secure that development project at the west side of the city."<br /> <br /> Helen breathed a sigh of relief, overwhelmed with gratitude toward Sean. "Thank you so much for this, Mr. Wesley."<br /> <br /> She had been depressed after Trevor called off their partnership and was naturally surprised that Sean was willing to help her build another with the Turnbulls. <br /> <br /> He even bought a panacea cap along, so she could present it as her gift—he was certainly a great help!<br /> <br /> "Oh, it's nothing, Helen," Sean said smugly. "We're friends, aren't we? We have each other's backs."<br /> <br /> Helen was tearing up from emotion—Sean was certainly proving himself to be a real friend with all his prowess, especially with the way he always came to her aid whenever she needed help.<br /> <br /> In contrast, her ex-husband certainly dulled in comparison. Perhaps letting her mother force Frank to divorce her was a smart choice.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Sean did not waste time hurrying inside the villa, though Helen glanced outside just as their car passed another. <br /> <br /> She did a double take, since the man sitting at the backseat looked so much like Frank!<br /> <br /> "What?" Sean promptly asked.<br /> <br /> "I think that was Frank in that car just now," Helen said quietly.<br /> <br /> "Hahaha!" Sean guffawed. "This is Balmung Hill's mansion zone, and everyone living here is either rich or powerful. What would your useless ex-husband be doing here?"<br /> <br /> Helen peered outside the car again, but she totally agreed with Sean.<br /> <br /> Moreover, she only looked outside and did not see the man's face clearly. Maybe it was just a slight resemblance…<br /> <br /> -<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Yara drove straight toward Verdant Hotel, which was the grandest hotel in Riverton.<br /> <br /> There were eighteen floors spanning over 2,000 square meters, and two lion statues grandly adorned the front entrance.<br /> <br /> Vicky personally opened the door for Frank and led him to the front desk, booking the penthouse suite for him for a year.<br /> <br /> "That's too much," Frank exclaimed in surprise. "I'll just be staying a few days."<br /> <br /> Vicky waved him off nonchalantly. "No worries, Mr. Lawrence. It's exclusively for friends, and you can drop by whenever you like even if you find other places to stay. The hotel can cater to your needs as well—food, entertainment, even sports."<br /> <br /> Frank nodded. He could see that he could have anything he wanted here the instant he stepped inside, what with the spacious lobby decorated with such stateliness.<br /> <br /> After Vicky got him a room, she handed him the room card along with a gold card.<br /> <br /> "This is a gold card, applicable to all Turnbull businesses. You can make any purchases you desire with this."<br /> <br /> "Is that exclusively for friends too?" Frank smiled as he stared at it.<br /> <br /> Vicky smiled as well. "No, it's for important associates of my family."<br /> <br /> "You really give me too much credit." Frank chuckled self-deprecatingly.<br /> <br /> Oh, the irony… <br /> <br /> Helen never gave him a thing in their three-year marriage.<br /> <br /> On the other hand, it had barely been a day since he met Vicky, but she had already given him a gold card.<br /> <br /> "Not really. I simply consider you a friend." Vicky grinned. "And I hope you'd consider me a friend in turn."<br /> <br /> Her eyes narrowed as she smiled, and certainly no one could read the thoughts behind it.<br /> <br /> Frank slipped the card into his pocket in turn, wordlessly approving her request.<br /> <br /> Before he could speak, however, someone yelled at him, "Frank Lawrence! You bstrd!"<br /> <br /> Frank turned to find Peter Lane standing there with a woman wearing thick makeup.<br /> <br /> Peter was planning to 'take a break' with his new girlfriend at the hotel, but he was furious to see Frank the instant he stepped inside.<br /> <br /> Ignoring the stares from the others around them, he strode up to Frank, pointing his finger at Frank's nose as he snapped, "You were badmouthing my sister, weren't you?! You told Mr. Zurich to call off her partnership with my sister!"<br /> <br /> Frank shot him a cool look. "Trevor simply saw your family's true nature."<br /> <br /> "Shut up! I'm beating you to a pulp right now!" Peter screamed.<br /> <br /> Before he could move, however, Vicky moved to stand between them, her brow furrowed as she said sternly, "You are in the Verdant Hotel, sir. Please be mindful of your behavior."<br /> <br /> She had no idea what the grudge between the two men were, but she was staunchly on Frank's side.<br /> <br /> As for Peter, he appeared taken aback as he studied Vicky, completely bewitched by her beauty.<br /> <br /> He had been philandering a lot ever since his family struck it rich. <br /> <br /> Even so, this was the first time he saw a woman as beautiful as her!<br /> <br /> Still, just because Vicky came in a hurry and was dressed in a business suit, he presumed her to be the lobby manager and possibly a woman who slept her way to the top.<br /> <br /> He promptly whipped out a few hundred dollar bills and stuffed them into Vicky's hand, whispering, "This has nothing to do with you. Also, I'll talk to you later."<br /> <br /> Vicky pursed his lips—that was totally disrespectful of him!<br /> <br /> She flung the money back at his face and snapped, "Mr. Lawrence is my friend, so take your money and leave right now. We don't accept boneheads like you."<br /> <br /> However, her outburst only left Peter further convinced that she was the lobby manager. <br /> <br /> His gaze darting between Vicky and Peter, he then realized something with a start!<br /> <br /> "Well done, Frank! So you got yourself a btch on the side already," he snapped, his eyes flashing viciously as he pointed between the both of them. "That's why you agreed to divorcing my sister so easily!"<br /> <br /> Frank's eyes narrowed as he growled coolly, "Watch your words, Peter. I won't hold this against you, seeing that you're Helen's brother. Now, leave."<br /> <br /> <br /> Chapter 7<br /> <br /> Peter was not afraid at all and poised a fist as he snapped, "A good-for-nothing like you talking back to me?! I'll straighten you out for my sister's sake right now!"<br /> <br /> That was when Frank suddenly kicked him in the gut, sending him flying like a bullet.<br /> <br /> "Argh!" Peter's girlfriend turned pale in panic and scrambled to his side. "Are you alright, darling?!"<br /> <br /> Nearby, Vicky was smiling coolly. <br /> <br /> Trying to lay a finger on Frank? The brat certainly was brave.<br /> <br /> That being said, she was more curious about the 'Helen' Frank mentioned.<br /> <br /> "Damn you…" Peter's face contorted from the agony in his stomach—it felt like his guts would spill out!<br /> <br /> Glaring darkly at Frank, he growled, "H-How dare you hit me!"<br /> <br /> Frank remained calm and composed. "I won't press the issue for your sister's sake. But now that I've cut ties with your family, I'll kill you the next time you mess with me."<br /> <br /> Peter actually flinched from the murderous intent in Frank's eyes and swallowed all the obscenities at the tip of his tongue.<br /> <br /> Instead, he wheeled on Vicky and snapped, "What are you doing?! I'm a guest here, and that man hit me! Aren't you the lobby manager?! Do something!"<br /> <br /> Vicky did a double take and soon shook her head exasperatedly. <br /> <br /> So she looked like a lobby manager to him? <br /> <br /> In that case, she could play that game one time.<br /> <br /> Beckoning at the security guards, she said, "Get him out of here."<br /> <br /> "What are you doing?! Let me go! I'm from the Lane family!" Peter screamed hysterically. "This isn't over yet! Just you wait!"<br /> <br /> "The Lane family? Hadn't heard. Even your grandpa would have to be watching his manners around my presence," Vicky scoffed in disdain. "And you're certainly nothing to me. Throw him out."<br /> <br /> With that, the two security guards promptly threw Peter out of the entrance like he was a bag of rubbish, leaving him falling flat on his face.<br /> <br /> "If he comes to cause trouble again, you have my permission to get physical," Vicky told the staff before turning to Frank. "Apologies, Mr. Lawrence. You have my word that this will never happen again."<br /> <br /> Frank shook his head. "No, this wasn't your fault."<br /> <br /> Vicky smiled and nodded. "Shall we go to your room?" <br /> <br /> She led him to the elevator and escorted him to his penthouse suite, and she left with Yara after getting his contact details.<br /> <br /> Frank went to stand before the glass wall overlooking Riverton.<br /> <br /> While he did not expect to divorce Helen after three years, he had accomplished his mentor's bidding.<br /> <br /> And now, it was time to fulfill his own plans.<br /> <br /> Just then, Frank's phone started ringing, and he whipped it out to see that it was a call from Henry Lane, the head of the Lane family.<br /> <br /> He hesitated to answer, unsure if Henry was aware of his divorce with Helen.<br /> <br /> He eventually answered, however—regardless of how the other Lanes would belittle him, Henry still considered him his grandson-in-law.<br /> <br /> "Hello, Gramps. How's it going?" Frank asked.<br /> <br /> "Hey, Frankie!" Henry exclaimed cheerfully from the other end. "Where are you right now?"<br /> <br /> "Me…? I'm out running an errand at the moment. Is something the matter?" Frank asked in return.<br /> <br /> He could tell from Henry's tone that he did not know about the divorce, so he did not mention it.<br /> <br /> "I see… You and Helen should come by my place this evening. I have good news!" Henry said excitedly.<br /> <br /> Frank's heart skipped a beat. "Actually, Helen's really busy lately," he said gingerly. "How about another day?"<br /> <br /> "Oh, she's never busy," Henry laughed. "I'll call her myself later. I doubt she'd say no—just come by when you're done with your errand."<br /> <br /> Frank took a deep breath and nodded. "Yeah. I'll be there when I'm done."<br /> <br /> He would tell Henry tonight when Helen arrived!<br /> <br /> -<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Helen and Sean finally got to meet Walter, with Sean promptly fawning all over the man in the drawing room.<br /> <br /> As soon as he thought he set the right mood, he explained the purpose of his visit, "Mr. Turnbull… You see, a friend of mine has told me that your daughter had been stricken with a terrible condition, and I therefore spent a fortune to buy a 100-year old panacea cap to treat her."<br /> <br /> Catching her cue, Helen promptly took out the velvet box and placed it solemnly before Walter.<br /> <br /> She slowly opened it, and the fragrant aroma from the panacea cap promptly spilled out. <br /> <br /> Even the luster and texture made it clear that it was not your average herb.<br /> <br /> Be that as it may, Walter merely nodded calmly.<br /> <br /> He would have been beside himself with joy before, but now that his daughter had recovered, the panacea cap was inconsequential.<br /> <br /> Moreover, it was clear that Sean had a reason to visit him and bring that woman with him.<br /> <br /> Naturally, Sean stiffened from his reaction as he noticed that Walter was not particularly interested in the panacea cap!<br /> <br /> On the other hand, Helen was too nervous to talk at all—she was just too scared to mess up in the presence of one of Riverton's bigwigs.<br /> <br /> Still, Walter refused to keep wasting his time with them and asked bluntly, "Thank you for your concern, Ms. Lane. How shall I repay you, I wonder?"<br /> <br /> Helen promptly threw up her hands. "I only wish to help. I'd never ask for anything in return."<br /> <br /> Walter smiled. "Please, don't be shy. You may speak freely."<br /> <br /> Sean chuckled heartily right then. "Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Turnbull. You see, Helen learned that your family will be leading a development project west of the city, and Lane Holdings is just hoping to secure a partnership."<br /> <br /> Walter was inwardly disdainful—he had not even heard of Lane Holdings!<br /> <br /> Did they even have what it took to take up that project?<br /> <br /> Still, he remained neutral as he said, "Does Lane Holdings have the experience for the project?'<br /> <br /> Helen appeared delighted at the question. "Of course. Our company has been working with Zurich International for three years now."<br /> <br /> Walter was actually astounded—the woman's company had a partnership with Trevor's?<br /> <br /> Who on earth was she? One of Trevor's people, perhaps?!<br /> <br /> It was only natural for Walter to show some respect at this point—his daughter would still be bedridden if not for Trevor.<br /> <br /> After some thought, he said, "Why don't we discuss this further tomorrow? There will be a banquet at Verdant Hotel and I'd be happy if you could attend as well, Ms. Lane."<br /> <br /> "Thank you, Mr. Turnbull." Helen was beside herself with joy—Walter was clearly approving of her!<br /> <br /> With that, the three made some small talk, and it was evening by the time Helen and Sean left Turnbull Villa.<br /> <br /> Helen could hardly hide her excitement, however, and was thanking Sean profusely. "Thank you so much, Mr. Wesley. I don't think Mr. Turnbull would have been interested in Lane Holdings at all if you hadn't bought that panacea cap."<br /> <br /> "You're exaggerating, Helen. Mr. Turnbull appreciates you because you showed grit," Sean replied humbly without really meaning it. "It's late now, and I've booked a place for us at Riverton Tower. How does dinner and a movie sound?"<br /> <br /> Helen was immediately hesitant.<br /> <br /> Dinner and a movie? And just the two of them?<br /> <br /> That was pretty much a date!<br /> <br /> She had just divorced Frank and was not planning to start a relationship just yet…<br /> <br /> That was when her phone started ringing, and Helen promptly answered.<br /> <br /> "Hello, Grandpa… Oh? Sure, okay."<br /> <br /> Helen was a little happy even as she hung up. "I'm sorry, Mr. Wesley, but my grandfather is asking for me tonight—he said it's important, so I should go. I'll take a rain check on that dinner."<br /> <br /> <br /> Chapter 8<br /> <br /> Frank took a taxi to Laneville in the evening and was surprised to find Gina waiting for a while at the door.<br /> <br /> Seeing him arrive, she promptly strode up to him and warned, "I take it you know what to say and what not to when you see the old man later."<br /> <br /> Frank chuckled. "You really should chase me away instead if you're that worried."<br /> <br /> "What?!" Gina glared at him, shocked that he would speak in that tone with her.<br /> <br /> Nonetheless, Frank ignored her and strode inside. <br /> <br /> After all, he had no reason to play nice with the rest of the Lane family now that he and Helen were divorced!<br /> <br /> As soon as he entered, he found Henry standing there with an apron, having cooked up a storm. <br /> <br /> "What's the occasion, sir? That's a lot of food," he said.<br /> <br /> Henry was smiling when he saw Frank and walked up to grasp his hand. "Oh, you're here, Frankie—you'll find out soon enough."<br /> <br /> As the pair sat down and made pleasant small talk, Gina stared fixedly at Frank, fearful that he would say what he should not.<br /> <br /> Helen arrived soon enough and saw Frank as she had expected. <br /> <br /> Henry was the one who arranged her marriage with Frank, so he naturally valued it greatly.<br /> <br /> It was precisely why Helen did not tell him about her divorce.<br /> <br /> Walking right up to Frank, she asked, "Where have you been this afternoon?"<br /> <br /> Frank shrugged. "I have no reason to tell you, do I?"<br /> <br /> Helen snorted, greatly upset by his attitude. "Fine, keep your secrets. I'm not bothered."<br /> <br /> Turning toward Henry, he asked, "What's so important, Grandpa?"<br /> <br /> Seeing that everyone was there, Henry chuckled heartily. "I just met an old comrade, and he told me that his granddaughter is working at Flora Hall. I thought it's the perfect timing to arrange for a job for Frank, and she agreed to it!"<br /> <br /> "No," Gina snapped as soon as Henry was finished. <br /> <br /> Frank was no longer family—why should they get him a job?<br /> <br /> That good-for-nothing could die for all she cared! <br /> <br /> "What?" Henry was left perplexed. "But Frank's jobless. He can't just stick to cooking and doing the laundry for Helen, can he?"<br /> <br /> "Actually, Grandpa," Helen said just then, "I can just arrange a job for Frank at the company. You don't have to worry."<br /> <br /> Still, Gina frowned as she pointed out, "Peter doesn't have a job either. You should worry about him more."<br /> <br /> "Hah! I would if he doesn't goof off every other day." Henry snorted. "All he does is embarrass me… And where is he now? Why isn't he back yet?"<br /> <br /> "Oh, he'll be here soon," Gina shrugged noncommittally. "What's the hurry?"<br /> <br /> Bang!<br /> <br /> The front door slammed open loudly, and they all saw Peter storming in furiously.<br /> <br /> Seeing that Frank was there as well, he bellowed, "You bst*rd! How dare you show your face here?! I'll kill you!"<br /> <br /> Peter picked up a chair, ready to swing it at Frank's head!<br /> <br /> Helen was left utterly bewildered—what had gotten into him?!<br /> <br /> "Stop!" Henry bellowed at Peter as he promptly sprang to his feet, "You wretch! How dare you try to hit your brother-in-law?! Show some respect!"<br /> <br /> "Brother-in-law?! Him?!" Peter snapped in disdain. "I saw him at Verdant Hotel, about to check in with some whore. I tried to stop him and he kicked me! My stomach still hurts even now!"<br /> <br /> "What?!" <br /> <br /> Everyone was stunned, with Gina promptly leaping up to snap at Frank, "Amazing! And here I thought you had it together, but you actually had a woman on the side!"<br /> <br /> "I-Is that even possible?" Henry was left staring at Frank in disbelief—he knew Frank well enough to know that he was not the type who messed around!<br /> <br /> "Why not? I saw that myself," Peter bellowed, his veins bulging over his neck.<br /> <br /> Helen frowned and turned to level a cool glare at Frank. "Is that true?"<br /> <br /> Frank simply smiled. "So you'd rather believe him than find out for yourself?"<br /> <br /> He was certainly disappointed—she could deny his loyalty to her over the last three years just because of what Peter said.<br /> <br /> He would not have felt that hurt if she had gone to the hotel to ask who that woman was or at least doubted Peter!<br /> <br /> "I'm asking you a question," Helen coolly replied.<br /> <br /> "Fine," Frank replied calmly. "I kicked your brother, and I was with a woman at the time."<br /> <br /> Helen inhaled sharply—she never thought that Frank would be with another woman!<br /> <br /> Even if they were divorced, she did not expect him to get on the rebound so soon. <br /> <br /> He must have had an affair for a while now.<br /> <br /> "Frank, you really disappoint me."<br /> <br /> "Really? I do?" Frank smiled bitterly. "Then what about you and Sean Wesley? At least I'm innocent compared to you two."<br /> <br /> When he was her husband, she kept going out with Sean frequently—had she ever considered his feelings?<br /> <br /> "I never did anything with Sean!" Helen screamed on top of her lungs. "You're the one who went to a hotel with another woman!"<br /> <br /> "Enough!" Henry suddenly bellowed, and everyone quieted down.<br /> <br /> He certainly understood that there was now a rift between Helen and Frank, and he had to do something or their marriage would be ruined.<br /> <br /> Looking between them, he said, "If you still consider me your grandfather, both of you must stop getting involved with such affairs and move in here with me."<br /> <br /> Helen simply shrugged. "That's unnecessary, Grandfather. We're already divorced."<br /> <br /> "What?!"<br /> <br /> Henry froze as if thunderstruck before turning toward Frank. "Is that true?"<br /> <br /> Frank nodded quietly—he did not want Henry to find out, but it was clearly pointless hiding it now.<br /> <br /> "Oh…" Henry groaned and shook his head in clear disappointment.<br /> <br /> "Please take care of yourself, Gramps. I'll visit when I can," Frank said and turned to leave—there was no point in pretending now that the truth was out.<br /> <br /> "Did I say you can leave?!" Peter yelled—he had yet to settle the grudge of being kicked!<br /> <br /> Smack!<br /> <br /> Henry suddenly slapped Peter across the face and snapped, "Just leave already."<br /> <br /> "Why did you hit me, Grandpa?!" Peter cried unhappily.<br /> <br /> However, Henry completely ignored him and ran up to Frank, holding his arm and pleading, "Please, Frank. Give Helen another chance—give my family another chance!"<br /> <br /> "What are you doing, Grandpa?" Helen was certainly puzzled.<br /> <br /> Beside her, Gina folded his arms and snorted. "Gotten senile already?"<br /> <br /> Without Frank, their family would only rise to new heights!

We DON’T claim to be experts, but just people who have seen a bit, done a bit, learned a bit and know a bit and welcome input from others out there.<br /> I’m Poor Richard, and along with my wife, Mama Donna, we’ll be bringing you information, inspiration, recipes, ideas, and a bit of humor to make prepping more interesting and less “doom and gloom”.<br /> Here are some of the features you will see. We also welcome suggestions on other areas you’d like to see covered.<br /> YOUR OPINION NEEDED<br /> Last week I started the B. B. Trapp series, but I am concerned as the series deals with boobytraps and such, While it stressed that this is only for use in the event of an all-out SHTF, I am concerned about posting any of it. We have tried to keep this page as different from the firearm waving camo commadoes as possible. I don't want some new reader to view us in that way and get turned off. So I turn to you, our readers old and new to tell me if articles like I will post this week are wrong for the page.<br /> POOR RICHARD’S CORNER Here we will be sharing various bits of wisdom, experience and advise derived from all sources, including contributions from our audience in a “lesson plan” format for those new to prepping. An example of this is “PREPPING MAY NOT GIVE YOU A 100% CHANCE OF SURVIVAL, BUT NOT PREPPING MAY LOWER YOUR CHANCES TO ZERO.”<br /> TOUCAN BILL’S BIRD’S EYE VIEW Toucan Bill got his name from when my wife, Mama Donna and I were first beginning to stock up on food. Money was (and still is) tight for us, so I told her “If we can’t buy a case put two cans on the bill.” Toucan Bill means finding economical ways to squeeze out prepping supplies. We will pass on any tips from ourselves, other sources or from you, our audience.<br /> B.B. TRAPP As the name implies, this is information on defending your area after a major SHTF by use of common everyday devices.<br /> PREPPER BEE WISE'S BUZZWORDS Like everything else, prepping has its own language and buzz words that can be confusing to someone looking to start. You’ll hear about BOB’s, GOOD, RTH, 3Bee’s, and more and want to know what they mean. We will be putting together and sharing the ones we’re heard and the ones you contribute. An example is: SAFE HAVEN: A less “threatening” term for a place to shelter safely during or after an event than “bunker”, “compound” or “retreat”. <br /> Feel free to share our articles with others, as the more people we reach the more that may be safer after a disaster.<br /> Yours in Prepping, <br /> Poor Richard and Mama Donna (Richard and Donna Maida) <br /> <br /> THE BASICS: MILLIE’S PREPPING <br /> HI, I’m Millie and I’m just plain folk. For those who missed me here a few weeks back, I work at the packing plant in Nowhere, Iowa and live in an apartment complex. I am a single mom with my four-year-old daughter, Sara. <br /> After a few times too many of having the power and water cut off, and roads blocked because of tornados, wind and ice storms and heavy snow falls, I decided I needed a better idea of how to be ready. I started looking around online and found out a few things. <br /> While I don’t have the land or the money some prepper sites say you must have, but I do have Uncle Mike and Aunt Jenny. They live on a patch of land in a little town ten miles away. They have been “prepping” long before anyone called it that. They have taken me under their wing and are teaching me the basics.<br /> PLANNING: PART XVII: BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE!<br /> You have probably heard that line on some commercial for some kitchen gadget or other do-dad on TV. But sometimes you can get a bit of prepping use from an item that was not foreseen by those who made the product or wrote the ad.<br /> My example here is a compact, countertop sized icemaker. It can sit on anyone’s kitchen counter and never draw a second look from any visitor and never be linked to prepping in anyone’s mind. Most anyone anyway, LOL! <br /> There are those, like my aunt and uncle, who look at an item and weigh if it has a “prepper” use. It this case, this icemaker has a most excellent one. If some kind of event is on the horizon, such as a storm due to hit in five days, or even a planned power outage, we could crank out Ziploc bags of ice cubes and pack them around the items in our freezer. In this way we could save at least some of our frozen foods, especially the meats. Also, when the bags melt, it would give us that much more pure drinking water to refill bottles with. We could also be “pro-active” and crank out the ice now to pack around the frozen items.<br /> Another aspect of this is to have a small foam cooler standing by. On the day of the storm, cold meats and other items needing refrigeration could go in the cooler along with a bag or two of the cubes, and the cooler put back into the refrigerator. You could also put a bag in each of the refrigerator's drawers.<br /> What makes it even better is that having the ice in the bags means you only have to reach into the freezer to add ice to a drink be it summer or holiday time. <br /> For more advanced preppers, if you can power the icemaker for a couple of hours from the generator you may be running, you can make more ice to keep more food from going bad.<br /> Yes, this is what we call a “two-for”, and even better, a stealth one. It has a second use for prepping that is totally hidden from any non-prepper. Who could possibly find something evil in an ice maker?<br /> <br /> ADVANCED PREPPING: A “JUSTIN” CALL<br /> We posted this 05/11/2021 but since it fits in with what is happening now and we are getting some new readers, I thought I’d repost it.<br /> As Mama Donna and I were sitting back relaxing last night, a call came in from a fellow prepper. They wanted to give us a “Justin” call about the pipeline disruption effects.<br /> A “Justin” call is where one of our fellow preppers sees, hears, or otherwise learns of some information that might affect us to the point of needing to use our prepper supplies and plans. The idea is to give a call “just in case” so we all have a heads up to check our supplies and plans.<br /> Our caller was hearing from those in the southeast, such as the Carolinas, about what affect the pipeline disruption could have for them. They weren’t sure if we would be hit as bad, but they wanted to check in with us anyway.<br /> The big question on their mind was gasoline and its price. We were ahead of the curve and topped off our jeep yesterday and already checked our other stocks used for the chain saw and lawn mower. (and generator)<br /> The next question was how any shortage might affect other supply lines, such as trucks trying to get supplies to stores.<br /> And lastly was if this news might trigger panic buying on various items, especially if the “news” hints at possible shortages.<br /> I’ll double check our stocks to be sure, but I feel we are in good shape to ride out a shortage or panic. We were ready when the pandemic panic hit last year. As we have spoken, in article after article, of how we prep for being cut off the grid. WHAT cuts us off IS important, but in the end, you are on your own with what you have to get through the emergency.<br /> <br /> AFTERMATH: WHEN THE DUST SETTLES: PART XXI: B.B. TRAPP <br /> A ROADBLOCK BY ANY OTHER NAME<br /> New preppers read army manuals to gain ideas on different subjects. Having served in the military, I am aware of the shortcomings of them such as the use of their own “buzz words” When it comes to roadblocks, an example of this are such phrases as “dragon’s teeth” “abatis” and “Spanish rider”. Simply put, there are all types of roadblocks.<br /> “Dragon’s teeth” are belts of steel reinforced concrete blocks anywhere from 3 to 5-foot high that can hang up a tank attempting to cross them, making it a target for various anti-tank guns, missiles, or other devices. With enough people and some equipment still working, you may be able to sink steel I-beams salvaged from the wreckage of buildings or other sources to seriously block roads into your area. Three smaller steel beams can be put together in an X shape to also block roads. If you ever saw any “D-Day” war movie, you probably saw items like these.<br /> “Abatis” is usually shown as a triangle of fallen trees across a road with dirt and rocks in the center. You can do the same with disabled cars that can be pushed into place then have the wheels taken off and the center area filled with whatever rubble may be available, with as many sharp objects pointing up and out in the direction of approach.<br /> A “Spanish rider” is a light, moveable roadblock designed to act as a gate for a guarded entry point. It is a pole or bar 6’ or so in length with an X of rods, or tree limbs at each end, with barbed wire strung from one X to the other. “In the ” soldiers are seen moving these into position. A variation on this is a pyramid shape of logs with wire wrapped around it. All of these can have tripwires to warning or other devises<br /> Remember, all blocks must be covered by long range rifle fire and NO block will keep out a well-trained, equipped and determined attacker. But they will give notice to the looting jackals to go somewhere else. <br /> <br /> TOUCAN BILL’S BIRD’S EYE VIEW: BY ANY OTHER NAME<br /> While every now and again the discount stores will actually have an item that states “survival” or even “prepping” most are just innocently sitting on the shelves. It is the preppers who understand their value in an emergency.<br /> To go into such as store and ask if they have any prepper or survival gear will probably get you a puzzled, if not a strange look from the employees. But knowing all the regular type items, such as batteries, bleach will help you to stock up on the odds and ends cheaply. An example of this is a roll up water bottle. It can go in all sorts of bounce back or bug out bags and can be snagged up for as little as a dollar in the summer.<br /> So, make a list of what you want to stock up on (first aid items, etc.) and swoop down on what dollar and discount stores have to offer. You’ll prove to yourself that prepping does NOT have to take up a lot of money. Prepping gear is still prepping gear, even if by another name.<br /> In fact, we just scored on such a "regular" type item at the discount store, but I need to take photos for the article. I should be posting it in next Friday's edition.<br /> <br /> PREPPER BEE WISE’S BUZZ WORDS: LUCKY CHARM<br /> An emergency kit bought and tossed into a closet by someone thinking just having it will keep them safe, so they don’t need to know anything about using it. <br /> <br /> POOR RICHARD’S FICTION CORNER<br /> Every edition we will post some “prepper” fiction. This is a few pages from the four chapter from my fictional work “When the Day Came.”<br /> PLEASE NOTE: This entire work, and any pages, or parts thereof, IS mine and I hold the copyright for it.<br /> CHAPTER IV<br /> FINAL REVIEW<br /> BY<br /> RICHARD P. MAIDA<br /> Marvin Deckman sat in the outer office waiting to be called in before the Director of Operations for the Department. He had passed all the phases of his training with flying colors. But the last step for every candidate for the position of agent with the Department was the final review in person with the Director. <br /> It was something that every recruit knew would come about and tried to deal with in their own way. Some dreaded it, while others saw it as a final challenge. Some candidates who seemed perfect in all ways somehow managed to wash out over it. Yet some who seemed marginal at best got through it. No one could determine any kind of pattern.<br /> Marvin reached down deep inside himself to find the calmness he’d need to face the Director. He thought of how the twenty-five years of his life had led to this. It seemed natural to him. He was brought up by his parents to respect the authorities over him. He never once questioned anything his teachers said or did. He obeyed every order and did every task without a second thought. He took the right courses, played the right sports and was part of the proper activities in high school and college.<br /> He didn’t doubt what he was taught. When someone else whose conduct he saw as degenerate got an A or got to be the star player on the team, he knew to shrug it off because he knew that evil sometime prospered. His job, he felt, was to dig out the evil in society. He saw the evil represented in such persons who did not keep in their place, who acted on their own interests and sometimes desires, A society, he believed could only be civilized when the good people led it and the lesser people stayed in their place and followed.<br /> He chuckled as he recalled a line from Shakespeare that went “..he thinks too much, such men are dangerous…” That to him was part of the problem. These people trying to think instead of listening to those with education and learning and simply obeying. Order, structure, structure order, obedience was what his tenth-grade history teacher taught him as the keystones of society. He remembered some jerk challenging the teacher by pointing out how the American Revolution formed a new way, one of freedom to think and challenge the old orders. The teacher shut the disrespectful punk down by pointing out that it was not the rabble but the well-read and well-bred leaders of the colonies who created the Declaration of Independence and later the Constitution. The punk shot back that the well-read might have created those things, but the rabble stood for, fought for, bled for and died for them. Marvin remembered how he approved of what happened next. The teacher sent the punk to the office for his disrespect. All his smart mouth got him was a well-deserved expulsion.<br /> But they never learned, he mused. From generation to generation, no matter how much education the society provided, still there were people who stubbornly refused to follow the right path as set down by those in authority. He thought of back in history when they tried to do the right thing and get rid of alcohol abuse and how prohibition was not only failed, but the people also helped the criminals to greater evil. <br /> Now it seemed worse. With all the killings and shootings in the cities it was clear the time had come for people to no longer have firearms. They could keep hunting rifles and shotguns at game commission centers and check them out when they wanted to go hunting. In rare cases farmers could keep single shot .22 rifles for shooting rats. Yet such an easy cure met with almost violent resistance. In his heart he believed members of Congress failed in their duty to protect their country against these evil people. A disarmed populous was a safe one. The phrase “a well-regulated militia.” meant the National Guard or Army and not some potbellied farmer with a gun cabinet full of shotguns and rifles. His father had taught him that when he told him when he was seven one of his friends father had such a collection. He was also forbidden ever to play with that evil boy again. Bad people have guns but good people have none was the phrase he learned to recite.<br /> He knew he had no entanglements that could blemish his background or integrity. His mother had taught him well to avoid the silly girls in high school and college. Once he had proven to be a good, moral upright man a decent woman would come to him, and they would have a proper home. He knew of promising recruits that had left the program because their girlfriends were of questionable moral and political character.<br /> He was ready, ready to go anywhere, to serve fully and to weed out those evil people living among us. He would do his best to bring his country one step closer to a total unity under proper leadership and guidance. But would he pass the final review? <br /> <br /> If you like what you read here, help us reach others. Facebook won’t let us reach others unless we pay, pay and pay.
