"We've heard about Mr. Frankton's feats, but they also said he's an old, portly man. Who could have known that he was this young and this handsome?"
Jada was absolutely content with everyone's flattery—helping these people was really the right call, even if it was just some flattery.
Frank then said, "Thank you, but I'm really just an average Joe—I'm not as great as you imagine."
Everyone smiled in wry amusement.
An average Joe?
An average Joe who could cure organ failure, demolish an entire building with a wave of his hand, and take over the Jaric family estate overnight, making hundreds of millions?
Laura approached Frank with her glass just then. "I should apologize to you, Mr. Frankton!"
Frank appeared surprised. "What are you saying, Dr. Layton?"
Laura scowled. "I'm not going to lie—I badmouthed you in the past… The way I see it, every person who is wealthy is wicked. I didn't think that someone like you really existed.
"Sorry about that, and I'm chugging this glass as punishment. You boys enjoy yourselves!"
Frank smiled in wry amusement, watching Laura chug her glass. "I'm nothing that amazing—I did all that just to be praised. You're right to say that I'm wicked, since I want both fame and fortune."
Laura smiled. "Can't agree with that even if you say so. For me, you're infinitely better than the rest of the wealthy."
Frank shrugged and raised his glass. "Alright, let's stop with the flattery. We're all here to have fun and not to get philosophical—that'd be boring. Drink up!"
As everyone else raised their glances, a loud yell could be heard nearby, followed by a rush of footsteps.
Frank got to his feet. "Go on drinking. I'll check it out!"
He turned and left just as he finished and found a woman in her forties standing in the hallway.
