Chapter 686
In the end, Vicky was the heiress of an important family.
Helen certainly dulled in comparison, just as her pride could not take it.
Therefore, now that she had the chance to become the head of the Lane family and become an equal
of Vicky's, she would seize it.
As for who would come up on top, that depended entirely on their respective abilities!
Ring...
Helen's phone started jingling just then, and she answered it. "Hello?"
Gina was immediately snapping, "Where are you? Come back to the manor right now! Remember
Madam Lang, Mark's second wife? She's here, and she's also being very specific about wanting to see
you!"
"She wants to see me? Why?" Helen asked even as she glanced at Frank.
Mark was brother to Henry Lane—Helen's grandfather—and had married three wives in his younger
days. It also happened to be the reason Henry and Mark had parted ways in the past.
Nonetheless, Gina was at once cheerful, "Oh, don't you get it? It must be because your uncle has
informed you that you're a candidate to become the next head of the family! Madam Lang must have

"Alright, got it." Helen raised a brow at Frank as she hung up. "See? Speak of the devil indeed."

mind granting you the honor of winning my favor before I'm actually promoted as the next head of the
family. I'm going to get changed now."
Since Frank was not arguing, she jogged off to her room, humming happily as she prepared to dress
up nicely.
Frank looked on, shaking his head in exasperation.
Frank parked his Maybach outside Lane Manor an hour later.
He and Helen were certainly dressed to impress, as he was forced by Helen to wear a formal black
suit, while Helen wore a black gown with a side slit.
Lane Manor was seeing quite a number of guests today, with the entire drawing room filled to the brim
with people.

Jade Zahn was there with her daughter Luna Lane too, though they were clearly looking impatient as
they sipped on their coffee.
On the other hand, Gina stood respectfully at a corner with her hand clasped, not allowed to sit but
obviously worshipful toward Fleur Lang.
For some reason, she looked no different from a servant despite owning the manor.
"Oh, Helen! Finally! What took you so long? Madam Lang was getting impatient..."
