Gina nodded repeatedly. “Don’t worry, Peter. I’ll call your sister right now.‘ She whipped out her phone right then and called Helen, surprising her since she was busy with work. “What is it, Mom?” Gina had her hand on her hip as she growled, “Your brother was beaten up, Helen.” “What? Who did?” “That ex–husband of yours!” Gina exclaimed furiously. “Who else could it be?!” “Frank? But, why?” Helen asked, puzzled.

“Why?” Gina snorted. “Peter went to Grande Corp to start work, but that lowlife Frank badmouthed him in front of Vicky. Peter got fired, and Frank seized the moment to beat him up.
