Seeing that Helen frowned from what she said, Gina quickly assured her, "Don't worry—that bastard
was just exaggerating. He was trying to trick you into eloping with him. He definitely won't try barging
into this wolf's den... Who knows, he might have fled Riverton by now!"
Helen was at once disappointed and hopeful—all she wanted was for Frank to be safe, and she could

Cindy entered just then, and promptly grabbed the jewelry box, gaping at it and then at Helen, "Wow.

about him.
"Come on, it's time. We should go," Gina said.
"Yeah."
Even as Gina pulled Helen to her feet and left the dressing room, Cindy was still obsessing over the
jewelry box.
