SYNOPSIS
“That’s enough,” a voice spoke from upstairs, stopping Gina before she went on another rant.
Frank turned to find Helen dressed in a black business suit as she strode down stairs toward them. With her devilish figure, fair skin, and ravishing beauty, she was a rare marvel of a woman.
“You wanted to see me?” she said as she walked up to Frank. “Now, say what you want to say.”
The coldness in Frank’s eyes faded as he looked at his wife. “Tell me why you want a divorce.”
When they walked down the aisle three years ago, the Lanes had nothing, but he and Helen had each other’s backs and were sweet on each other. Frank in turn swore he would make her family the greatest dynasty in Riverton.

Helen spread her arms and looked pointedly around them. “You’ve gotten too comfortable for too long, Frank—you’re shallow and content with pocket change, which is why this manor will be where it ends. But for me, this is just the start.”
“Indeed… I am shallow, but who is insightful, then?”
Frank asked, shrugging. “Is it you, or perhaps it’s Sean Wesley?”
Helen was taken aback………..
