Helen waved him off, smiling faintly. "Just give it a rest—I bring good tidings, as we Northstream Lanes are now completely a part of the Lane family again." "Uh huh, and?" Frank remained unaffected.
Helen was not surprised and kept smiling. "Well, that's not all. Uncle Gavin also toldthat I'm now a candidate for the head of the family!" "Just a candidate?" Frank snorted in disdain.

It's already amazing that someone like me, who was only recently taken back, was chosen at all!" To be honest, Helen was as apathetic about being brought back to the main family as Frank was. They would only be a branch of relatives, having a superficial relationship with the Southstream Lanes without any meaningful exchange.
As such, becoming a candidate for the next head of the family was different! The title alone carried weight and position over the entire Lane family, unlike being mere relatives—it was a chance to turn things around! Now, Helen just had to beat her rivals and prove her ability to Mark Lane.
If she cout on top, she would becthe leader of a dynasty in the most genuine sense! "Oh, congratulations," Frank said without sincerity.
He knew all too well that Helen's Uncle Gavin was smart—Gavin could see that Frank was connected to someone very important and therefore chose Helen as a potential heir just to curry Frank's favor.
However, it was virtually assured that Helen would never becthe head of the Lane family.
Specifically, Mark's other heirs would never let Helen, a | x NS to stand above them, let alone one who had just returned to the family.

"So!" Helen snorted proudly, clapping Frank on the shoulder as she grinned. "I'm going to becthe head of the family! Forget about Vicky Turnbull while you can and fawn all over me. It'd be too late for regrets when | actually get my meteoric rise!" Her smug look actually left Frank laughing and nodding in amusement.
"Sure, sure. I'll be sure to fawn all over you when you becthe head of your family.
His clearly half-hearted reply left Helen pouting.
"Be serious! | know | am!" she snapped unhappily, standing akimbo. "Once I'm the head of the Lane family, I'll be Vicky's equal... No, I'll even outrank her! She won't get to strut when that happens!" Though Helen reared her chin as she announced her ambitions proudly, Frank was left smiling in wry amusement. "So that's what it was all about." Helen remained motivated, however, as she was aware that Vicky always had an edge over her.
