Female Novel
Chapter 657
Frank mused to himself even as he held Quinn's searing gaze, but he eventually shook his head.
"It's probably too late. I don't think anyone can reason with Maron Ocean, and Sage Lake Sect wouldn't
change their mind even if you returned."
Pausing, he then continued, "Moreover, you're worth nothing to the Sage Lake Sect after your father's
death. Instead of retaliating against the Salazar's like you said, Maron would just have me killed to get
more out of this."
Frank's dissection left Quinn's face paling in despair.
After all, she knew that everything Frank said was right.
As soon as Bocek's meridian nexus was destroyed, he and Quinn knew that there was no longer any
place for them in Sage Lake Sake.
They wanted to return just to gather their allies and use their reputation to reclaim whatever fortune
they had before they left.
Now that Bocek was dead, any influence he had had gone up in smoke.
It was pointless even if Quinn returned now—no one would listen to her, and she might even be
eliminated at worst.
After all, what purpose would a woman who had no cultivation and influence serve for Sage Lake Sect
in comparison to an influential family like the Salazars?
"T-Then what should I do?" Quinn sobbed, her voice shaking.
Frank breathed a long sigh as he looked at her. "Just stay here and focus on getting better. You're now
not involved with Sage Lake Sect. I'll go to see them tomorrow, and things would be fine if they listen to
me... If they don't, I'd just have to kill them all."
He then turned to leave but paused without looking back as he told her, "By the way, I've healed your
meridian nexus. Just rest, and you'll be in fighting form again soon."
And with that, he left without a glance behind.
"T-Th..."
Quinn wanted to thank him, but her words stayed stuck in her throat, and it was difficult to breathe them
out.
If not for Drakon Salazar and his family, she would never have been Frank's enemy.
Likewise, it was her greed that led to her father's death.
Endless hatred welled up in Quinn's heart, but she soon forced herself to look up as she made up her
mind.
Early next morning, Frank left White Court Hotel where he had been lodging, since it was close to Flora
Hall.

Naturally, it was Quinn.
"What do you want?" Frank frowned at her as he wound down the window.
"I'm coming with you to Sage Lake Sect," she said, her visage determined.
"That's fine by me." Quinn remained impassive.
"You're thoroughly hurt. You'd just burden me," Frank added.
