Betrayed, Then Back For Blood

Chapter 203

Chapter 201

All eyes turned to Brandon, who avoided Frank’s gaze. “Emily told about what happened to Connor at the border…”

Everyone knew that, aside from Reece and Hamish, Connor was by far the most ruthless person around Ashton.

Rumor had it that Connor had killed at least fifty people, if not a hundred. He was a downright killing monster.

Word on the street was that the reason Connor never stayed in Shoneport was that Ashton didn’t dare keep him by his side. He was afraid Connor would turn into a real killing demon. The guy was just too dangerous.

Frank had deep feelings for Connor and would never let anyone say a single bad word about him. Whenever he overheard someone criticizing Connor behind his back, he’d feel a surge of anger and want nothing more than to stand up for him, no matter what.

Frank’s parents were well aware of his feelings for Connor. Other than not being able to accept the idea of them officially registering their marriage just yet, they had pretty much acknowledged that the two were already a couple.

Almost all of Ashton’s international under–the–table earnings came from the border region. The reason Frank’s parents had basically accepted their relationship was that Connor was Ashton’s most trusted right–hand man, and he was in charge of all of Ashton’s business along the border.

No matter who you were, once you set foot in the border area, you had to play by Connor’s rules and watch his mood.

Secondly, when Frank was a kid and got bullied by the second and third branches of the family, Connor was always there to step in and protect him.

Frank’s parents were busy with their careers back then and were hardly ever home. Having someone who would protect Frank no matter what, they naturally felt deeply grateful to Connor.

But Frank never would have imagined that, even with his deep feelings for Connor, Emily would still try to stir up trouble.

Frank’s expression immediately darkened. He rolled up his sleeves and turned to storm off, ready to confront Emily. “Damn it, Emily! If I don’t break your legs today, I’ll take your last name!”
