As his blood-curdling scream rang, Gable Lane was sent flying crashing through the glass wall and down Lanecorp Tower. "Frank Lawrence!"

Fleur was furious to see Frank would actually kill in broad daylight, but before she could say another word, Frank wheeled on her with a sinister glare, leaving her flinching. "Insolence!"

That was when the elderly woman who had been standing by Fleur all this while strode up.

While she had been calm and composed before, she was now glaring coldly at Frank as she snapped, "How dare you murder a member of the Lane family right in front of me!" "And who are you?" Frank asked, though he had an idea given how the woman carried with authority, as if she was above the rest.

Fleur quickly snapped at Frank, "She's Yora Yimmel, my dear sister and the matriarch of the Lane family!"

"Yora Yimmel?"

Frank did a double take-he had never heard that name before, but 'matriarch of the Lane family' was not really hard to place.

Helen flinched in turn, because Yora was Mark Lane's wife and Helen's granduncle.

She was also the direct heiress of the Yimmels of Bralog, and even Mark himself had to show her due deference.

In recent years, she had been staying with her birth family in Bralog due to unmentioned circumstances, but she grew in power and became their de facto matriarch.

One could certainly say that she was untouchable in the Lane family-even Mark could not pull rank against her, since the Yimmels were more than powerful in contrast to the Lane family.
