Helen almost shed tears from sheer frustration. "How could you do this to me, Vicky?!"

Vicky walked up and hugged Helen while purring, "Oh, dear Helen... Why are you tearing up? It really hurts to look—Dbut reality is just that cruel. All is fair in love and war! You need more resolve than this!"

Wagging her finger at Helen, she continued, "I mean, just think about it—why would I help you become the next head of the Lane family? Just so that you can lord over me? I'd be shooting myself in the foot, and I'm not as dumb as you are.”

Seeing that Vicky's words were striking Helen where it hurts most, Frank sighed exasperatedly. "That's enough now, Vicky. Stop scaring her—don't you have any ideas?"

"Huh?" Vicky turned toward him in shock. "Did you think I'm just scaring her, darling? This is a once- in-a-lifetime opportunity to defeat Helen once and for all... Fine, I'll be frank. I'm not some deity who can make money out of such a huge farm in two months. Helen is in for it now.”

Helen really snapped at that and pushed Vicky away as she huffed, "T-To think I thought you were helping me out of the kindness of your heart... You're despicable, Vicky!"

"You flatter me." Vicky smiled, leaving Helen feeling like she was punching futilely into cotton.
