His first thought was that Gene had betrayed him, but he soon realized that it was impossible.

After all, Gene knew that Rory and Zorn were conspiring to kill him. He would never betray Frank unless he was stupid, and he did not become the richest man on the east coast by being stupid.

Helen frowned alongside Frank.

We can come back again later," she said, tugging on Frank's arm and offering him a way out.
