Female Novel
Chapter 898
Vicky was an authority on that subject.
However, she was not drawn to Frank just for his looks-it was his style, attitude, and measures which left Vicky profoundly enchanted.
If she never met him, he might really have gone with the family's arrangement to marry Titus.
But now that she had Frank, she could not care less about Titus.
Moreover, Titus' accomplishment and current position was something he gained by riding his family's coattails, whereas Frank relied on himself to get where he was today.novelbin
In time, he would outclass Titus by a mile-something which Vicky held in profound conviction.
Leveling a solemn glare at Titus, she said, "I never believe in bullshit like fate—I'lI take my life in my own hands, so I'll tell you this now: I'll never marry you. I love Frank and adore him, and he's the only one I'll ever marry. That engagement of ours? Hah! Fuck off!"
"Please, Ms. Turnbull!" Madam Zims dropped to her knees audibly, kowtowing endlessly, "Please reconsider! Every life in our family is in your hands! The South Sea Crow will be delighted if you refuse to marry Mr. Lionheart... before she picks us off one by one!"
"The South Sea Crow?" Frank frowned, somehow familiar with that name.
Seeing that Madam Zims had spilled the beans, Vicky turned toward Frank in exasperation and explained, "The South Sea Crow is a terrible foe targeting our family for some reason. She's vowing to exact revenge upon us, which is why my family has been on edge constantly. She's the reason we've been losing our people every year, and it's only our alliance with the Lionhearts and their people that she was kept in check."
Frank frowned suspiciously. "What, you can't just kill her and be done with it?"
"Kill her?" Titus chuckled in the distance, shooting him a look of disdain. "She's peak Ascendant rank, and she moves around like a ghost and has an arsenal of sinister devilry at her disposal. Even Volsung Sect failed to take her down even after cornering her on several occasions. Hell, my father can't do anything either, and he's Transcendent rank. And you think you'd be able to take her down just because you say it?"
"That's right." Vicky sighed helplessly, not arguing with Titus for once. "The South Sea Crow is just too much for my family, and we're just a dynasty of magnates and lacking martial artists or talent. That's why we really have no way to fend her off."
"Without the Lionhearts, the Turnbulls would have been massacredo m already Titus laughed loudly, folding his arms before his chest.
"I get it." Frank nodded at that point. "So the problem is the South Sean Crow? She's the reason you were compelled by Glen to marry that one over there?"
Vicky nodded exasperatedly, but soon pouted and snapped, "Yes, but I don't care anymore. I'm leaving with my darling, and no one can stop me!"
"Oh, Ms. Turnbull..." Madam Zims sighed feebly nearby.
Glen was certainly right-Vicky changed her mind as soon as she met Frank, and even Titus' presence was pointless.
