NovelEnglishIn the afternoon, Liv went to Frank's room while he was training and said bluntly, "Frank Lawrence, you'd better keep your hands to yourself." Frank frowned, confused by her words. "Keep my hands to myself? Why?" "Don't even getstarted." Liv snorted as she planted herself on the couch, crossing her legs as she continued haughtily, "Kim's father has already found a fiance for her. Keep your distance from Kim if you know what's good for you." "And what does that have to do with me?" Frank merely found Liv mystifying.
His retort stung Liv, and she leapt up, pointing at his nose as she snapped, "Can't you see?! Kim likes you! | can't even tell what you have going for you, but she's obsessing over you so much every passing day! So you'd do well to stay away from her for the sake of her happiness!" "Then talk to her about it. Why me?" Frank was left speechless and gestured for her to leave. "What Ms. White does is none of my business, whether she's engaged to the Yaffes or someone else. And | was never interested." "Fine. | guess you know your place." Liv snorted but stopped at the door as she remembered.

"Knew you wouldn't." Liv snorted. "You're just a healer who's a little better than the rest. Know your place—don't think we owe you just because you saved Kim. And we're equal after you took the Earthen Dragonheart." Before she could leave, Frank sighed, "I saved you too when | saved Ms. White, didn't I?" "What was that?" Liv's eyes flashed warily as Frank mentioned it.
"Nothing," Frank said. "I'd just rather you showdue respect because | did save your life too." Liv flushed right then and snorted as she strode out of his room.
Still, Liv's outburst aroused Frank's suspicion. "Fiance... Does that mean that Kim's fiance is from Sage Lake Sect?" That explains why the White family would receive word so quickly, though Frank doubted that Kim would conspire with Sage Lake Sect against him.
In his mind, Kim was an upstanding person—she showed her decisiveness when she accepted his treatment and her integrity when she scolded her own father over the Earthen Dragonheart.
Frank remembered Eron then and how disrespectful he was the last tthey met at the drawing room of this very residence. It was assuredly a far cry from his attitude when he visited Frank yesterday...

Winter snatched Carol's phone just then, mumbling irresolutely for a long while before telling Frank to stay safe while apologizing for her poor behavior over the last two days.
"Haha..." Frank chuckled, a warmth unfurling in his heart when he heard her voice. "Yeah, I'll be back tomorrow..
Oh, and let's go out on a trip in two days."
