Chapter 151

Neil was staring at Robert in disbelief, his molars gritting so hard he almost crushed them.

Frank had actually saved the daughter of Riverton’s governor?!

At the same time, Walter hurried to greet Robert. “You honor us with your presence, Mr.

Quill!

“You’re exaggerating.” Robert spread his hands cheerfully. “I just came to see the man to

whom I owe my daughter’s life to.”

Yara promptly pointed at Frank. “That’s Mr. Lawrence, Dad–the one I spoke of.”

Robert turned toward Frank, and Frank nodded as their eyes met. “Mr. Quill.”

Robert’s eyes narrowed, though he soon nodded in satisfaction. “Your reputation precedes

you, young man. My daughter is definitely right about you.”

Vicky hurried to Yara’s side just then, asking under her breath, “How’d you persuade him

to step up?”

Vicky certainly knew her mentor’s attitude–the man rarely got involved in any conflict

within Riverton. To come here and defend Frank like this today was certainly a rarity.

Yara whispered back, “I told him Frank saved my life and improved the family’s

Boltsmacker technique. He got interested and decided he had to meet Frank.”

Vicky nodded. “I see.”

Robert turned toward Vicky just then, demanding, “My apprentice, I heard your family

demands Mr. Lawrence’s death? Is that true?”

“No, sir,” Vicky quickly said. “My cousin is merely investigating the death of a family

member. He has no intention to kill Frank.”

“Your cousin?”

“That’s me,” Neil spoke loudly just then.

Robert turned, doing a double take before studying him. “I thought you were a girl–you

certainly dress like one.”

Neil clenched his knuckles from frustration–to think he was insulted just for putting up a

little makeup!

“So, how is the investigation going?” Robert asked nonchalantly just then.

“Frank is found to be guilty as charged,” Neil said.

Robert waved him off dismissively. “Oh, well, as traitors go, he’s dead and that’s the end

of it.”

“The end?” Neil growled indignantly. “This is a family matter, Mr. Quill. You don’t have to

meddle, do you?”

Robert smiled, placing his hands on his hips as he said, “Why don’t you consider it doing

me a favor? Don’t press the issue. And that’s decided.”

Neil was certainly upset that Robert was making his decision for him.

However, the old man with him put a hand on his shoulder before he could lash out.

Following where the old man was looking, Neil then noticed that every man Robert

brought was staring fixedly at him.

And they were all armed to the teeth!

He finally realized that unlike in the capital, his word was not final in Riverton.

As such, he restrained himself as he said, “Since you’ve asked, Mr. Quill, of course I’d have

to.

While Robert appeared satisfied, Neil suddenly turned toward Vicky. “However, Mr.

Longman is dead. Have you at least recovered the recipe for the Beauty Pill?”

Vicky shook her head. “I don’t have it. The Salazars took it.”

Neil snorted. “And how are you going to compete against them in the market like this?”
