Chapter 198
“Fine.” Vicky could not say anything against that–she wanted to annul her engagement as well, but it was simply impossible.
If she wanted to do it, she needed someone with stronger influence than the Lionhearts… or to groom one with such potential.
In the case of the latter, Frank was her best candidate–he had strength and character, and she would not let him run away no matter what it would take.
A call came from Yara just then. “Hello, Mr. Lawrence? Where are you right now?!!
“Skywater Bay. What is it?” Frank asked.
“I’ve found the person you asked me to find,” Yara quickly said. “She’s right here in Riverton.”
“Really? That’s great news!” Frank was thrilled–it had taken him years, but he had finally found the only daughter of his mentor, rest his soul!
“Where is she now?” he pressed.
“I’ll send the file to you right now,” Yara replied.
The file soon arrived on Frank’s phone, and he scrolled through it.
Winter Lawrence was now twenty and studying at Riverton University.
Years ago, she was taken in by Bright Sun Orphanage before being adopted by a couple named the Lawrences at the age of three.
The family moved to different places after that. When her adopted father passed away three years ago, her adopted mother took her and her adopted brother, Fred Lawrence, to live in Riverton.
They owned a small diner, while Fred worked for a real estate agency.
“Do you need me to come with you, Mr. Lawrence?” Yara asked.
“Yes, please do.” Frank nodded.
“Of course. I’ll be right over,” Yara said and hung up.
“What is it?” Vicky asked, walking up to Frank.
“Nothing,” Frank replied nonchalantly. “Yara found the person I asked her to.”
“Really? Let me have a look at the girlie’s face…”
Vicky was Yara’s best friend and naturally knew about the search.
She leaned against Frank’s shoulder, looking over at his phone screen.
Winter’s face was a little round–she was no world–class beauty, but she carried a fresh, innocent presence that would at least elevate her above her peers.
“Pretty.” Vicky nodded.
Frank got up. “I’m going out with Yara.”
Chapter 198
“To see Winter?”
Frank did not say no, so Vicky scrambled to her feet. “I’m going too. As your missus, I ought to show my face.”
Frank rolled his eyes. “I’m not planning to tell her who I am.”
Since Winter was not aware she had been adopted, he had no reason to tell her that.
All he wanted to do was check on Winter to make sure she led a good life.
Vicky pouted. “I’m going anyway.”
Frank did not say no, and Yara soon arrived at the hilltop mansion with her car.
“You’re here too, Vicky?” she exclaimed, surprised by her best friend’s presence.
Vicky nodded. “Yeah. I heard you found the daughter of Frank’s mentor–I’d like to see her myself.”
“Then let’s go together.”
As the trio drove to East City, Vicky asked in curiosity, “You’re not engaged to the girl, are you, Frank?”
Yara was driving, but she was curious about any gossip on Frank, just like Vicky.
