Chapter 299

"What?" Winter froze—she was just friends with Frank, not his sister! For Janet's part, she did not say much as she studied Winter. "Hmm. You do have the looks," she said, nodding. "Anyway, you and your family should step out for a moment. Chief King and I will be examining your mother." They all nodded repeatedly—the chief of the hospital was right there, after all! Once they were out, Winter promptly snapped at Fred, "I told you that you shouldn't have chased Frank away. What are you going to say the next time you see him?" Fred appeared embarrassed and felt a little guilty, but the way Frank threw shade at Marian still left him seething. "So what?" he retorted stubbornly. "Do you think we can't survive without him? You should stop seeing him too—the way I see it, he just wants your body." He knew that much was true—Frank was as rich as he was influential. Why else would Frank be nice to their family if not for Winter? It was not to mention that they both came here together!
