In fact, Hans put a hand over his heart and assured that Frank could kill Geon if he wanted to-he would take care of the rest.
Naturally, Hans also asked Frank indirectly about his stance on Governor Quill and his family.
The misunderstanding between them and Frank had since been cleared, and the Quills who were involved in framing Frank had since been punished.
Still, Governor Quill had his pride and really could not bring himself to apologize to Frank. He could only ask Hans to pass a message, asking Frank to visit him in Bralog when he could.
Frank breathed a sigh of relief at that, as he was not cold enough to cut ties with Governor Quill.
And with Hans coming to make peace, Frank nodded and agreed to visiting Governor Quill when he could.
Naturally, that would have to wait-Frank still had to deal with the problems he faced at the moment.
With that, Frank had Hans pull his men out of the building and post a protection detail for Geon.
Hans did not hesitate to agree to Frank's requests either and had his men escort Geon as he left the building.
Either way, Frank was now famous, having snapped at the rich and important figures of Zamri and making the Zamri commissioner yield to him. They certainly understood the backing he had now and that he was no thug.
As such, Frank's reach was no longer confined to the gangs but had also reached the politics and business scene in Zamri.
They could not hope to reach the level of his connections either.
Hence, Frank stole the limelight in Zamri once more as an agent of Lanecorp.
And to Helen Lane's delight, the case against her was declared moot, and she was also receiving new partnership offers from all businesses from Zamri.
While those people were mostly aiming for Frank's connections, they were still helping Lanecorp grow further and expand into new businesses. For Frank, however, it was not exactly good news, as fame was a double-edge sword.
Given his unusual roots and status, getting too famous would instead draw the attention of his enemies.
That was why he persuaded Helen
to turn down most of the offers
showered their way-things that came at no cost always proved to be the most costly in the end. Who knew when those new partners would stab Lanecorp in the back?
Helen was no fool herself as she knew that nothing in this world really came for free. That was especially the case in business, where blood was persistently spilled.
That was why she agreed to Frank's suggestion, fending off the board's pressure as she rejected most partnership offers.
It was certainly upsetting for Gina Zonda too—in her mind, a dinner served was a dinner served, and her daughter was just nitpicking.
She even came looking for Frank, but his boys came up with various excuses and sent her home.
And for Frank, he also realized
something else after this
incident no matter how strong an
individual was, they could not stand alone against an entire faction or dynasty.
That was why he changed his strategy.
Instead of conditioning his mind and training his physique every day, he turned his attention to training the security officers from the Lanecorp Health and Safety Department.

Also, the boys had been mentioning quite often about how boring the name 'Lanecorp Health and Safety Department' sounded.
Frank himself did not take notice of the name or the thuggish officers at first, but things were different now.
