Ch. 1101..1110

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1101-On the other hand, Frank was scowling when he saw Zorn.

His first thought was that Gene had betrayed him, but he soon realized that it was impossible.

After all, Gene knew that Rory and Zorn were conspiring to kill him. He would never betray Frank unless he was stupid, and he did not become the richest man on the east coast by being stupid.

On the other hand, Zorn was glowering in realization and barked, "I get it now!

You're trying to take advantage of Mr. Pearce while he's sick, aren't you?!"

"What?"

Helen frowned alongside Frank.

She trusted Frank, but the fact that Gene's valet did not know about the deed transfer made Frank look like a liar, and now exposed. And now, Frank was even accused of taking advantage of Gene's illness… "Frank, why don't we leave for now? We can come back again later," she said, tugging on Frank's arm and offering him a way out.

Frank had every intention to do so too, as he would like to ask Gene in person what the heck was going on.

Or maybe Zorn and Rory saw through his pretense and killed him directly?

"Hahaha! Can't say a word now, can you?" Cindy was still roaring with laughter, clutching her belly. "You could say that you and Gene Pearce had a private agreement, but his valet doesn't even know!" Frank certainly wanted to tell her that it was what happened, but he simply shook his head because Zorn was there.

However, just as he was pulling Helen along to leave, Zorn suddenly strode up, standing in his way. "Hold it! Did you think you could pull a scam with Mr.

Pearce's name and leave unpunished?!" The air around Zorn seemed to stiffen, and Frank's eyes narrowed.

He looked like your typical middle-aged manservant, but was actually ya martial artist.net advanced Birthright rank at that!

an snet Still, Frank snorted as he shielded Helen behind himself and glowered. "So what? What are you going to do about that?"

Bob strode up smugly right then.

"We'll break your arm as punishment. If you want to make this easy, do it yourself, then you can leave!" s "What if I refuse?" Frank stood his ground, his expression cool.

"Then you're asking for it!" Zorn laughed coldly, suddenly projecting his black and white vigor before himself.

"Hmm? The Dyadese form?" Frank was surprised by the pure vigor Zorn projected.

"Oh, so you know what this is? I guess you're not leaving now!"

Zorn bellowed, and lunged at Frank while shouting at Rob and Bob, "Go!

Take those women!"

"Yes, Mr. Woss!"

Rob and Bob promptly charged toward Helen at Zorn's orders.

Pow!

Then, instead of countering Zorn's blow, he leapt toward Rob and Bob

However, Frank easily parried Zorpis outstretched palm with his forearm.

"Fuck off!" he bellowed, leaving both men petrified.

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1102-"J-Just you wait!" Bob and Rob bellowed, but they quickly scrambled to flee the office building.

On the other hand, Zorn felt a chill down his spine when Frank parried his blow.

"He's a martial artist too?" he murmured to himself. "Why didn't I sense his vigor?"

Moreover, he could see that Frank was used to fighting as he dispatched Rob and Bob in no time at all. He was certainly convinced earlier that Frank was just an average Joe, but he now actually sensed a formless pressure that Frank projected around him.

The pressure left Zorn wary, and he was suddenly unsure if he could beat Frank.

Such might despite his youth certainly left him wondering where he was from.

Narrowing his eyes, Zorn backed down and asked, "May I ask what clan or sect you're from?"

Frank, however, shook his head and said quietly, "I'm just a nobody. So? Are we going to continue? I'm not going to hold back if you do, and you'll have to face the consequences of your own actions." Zorn stared at Frank warily but ultimately withdrew his vigor.

He was inherently mistrustful and would avoid unnecessary confrontation if he could.

"I'll let you go this one time," he bellowed. "But I won't hold back if you try to pull another scam in Mr. Pearce's name!"

Frank snorted coolly and left Drenam Limited with Helen.

Along the way, Cindy was yapping endlessly. "Tut, tut. It's not like I want to tell you again, but if you keep Frank Lawrence around, you'll eventually run out of luck. I meanet we weren't rich before, but life was calm until that jinx came to our family, right? The way I see it, he'd really get us killed the next time this happens."

"Cut it out already!" Helen snapped at her, frowning.

"No, I have to keep telling you." Cindy even leveled a gloating look at Frank. "Kill me if you can. It's not like my life has meaning, though you'd have trouble explaining yourself to Aunt Gina." That was when Frank stopped in his tracks.

"She's right, Helen."

Cindy was caught off guard, as she had expected an outburst from Frank, only for him to agree with her.

Helen was even more shocked too!

At the same time, Frank remained impassive as he continued, "You'd face even more danger if we stay together. Let's just split up… okay?"

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1103-"Freeload off you for three years?"

Frank was certainly amused by the idea, but he was not bothered to stoop to verbal fencing against Cindy.

Instead, he turned to Helen with a serious look, intent on asking for her opinion.

Helen was silent for a while, but she soon said quietly, "I don't know what happened to you that you'd think that, Frank… But I'm telling you in no uncertainty not to think like that ever again! I'll never leave you, and no one can stop me!"

Then, shaking off Cindy's hand, she snapped coldly, "This is an order, Cindy. Go back to Riverton and tell my mom not to worry about me. As for you, I know

you're upset about being dumped, but neither me nor Frank are your punching bag, and Lanecorp doesn't need garbage like you who doesn't know anything but struts around all high and mighty."

"What?!" Cindy stumbled backward in shock. "What did you say, Helen…?"

"I called you garbage!" Helen snapped. "You don't get to criticize Frank, not when you lost the ruby his father gave me! And do you want me to list all the other things that you've done?!" Seeing that Helen was dead serious-even furious-Cindy was left shaking in frustration.

Glancing between Helen and Frank, she snapped, "Aunt Gina and I only want the best for you, but you'd rather stay with that jinx?! Aren't you afraid of getting killed?!"

"I can die happy, as long as I'm with Frank!" Helen retorted proudly.

"F-Fine! I get it now. You two are… Whatever!" Cindy stormed off, at a loss for words and unable to even manage a single expletive.

It was only after watching Cindy leave that Frank came to his senses.

However, Helen's rage had yet to subside.

Wheeling on Frank, she snapped menacingly, "Don't you ever talk like that to me again, you hear me?!"

Seeing that she was in her girlboss mode, Frank raised a brow and asked gingerly, "O-Or what?"

"O-Or I'll cut your wages!" Helen snorted and stormed off.

"Ah, my wages…" Frank scratched his head, smiling in wry amusement.

It seemed that Helen really loved her job, threatening Frank with his salary.

Still, it was clear that Helen could not find a reason and came up with a ridiculous one instead, embarrassing herself even after she said it. After all, a wage cut was really no threat to Frank.

As for the girlboss, she appeared more like a grumpy wife after her grumpy threat.

"Pfft… So you'd die happy as long as you're with me?" Frank smiled, feeling warmth unfurling within. nes as he came to understand Helen's heart.

speeding down the road and stopping near them. S

In fact, Frank was at once alert when he spotted a familiar figure O M alighting twas Gene Pearce.

He watched them warily but soon realized that they were not after him.

Remembering what had happened just now, Frank connected the dots and realized with a start.

Gene did not betray him-something else was happening here.

Just as he was going to get out and ask Gene what was happening, he watched as a large group of martial aftists, ranging from vigor wielders to Birthright rank individuals alighted too.

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1104-Since Zorn was Birthright rank, Gene naturally had to be careful and gather enough men to deal with him.

In short, Frank had run straight into a metaphorical wall.

He had come to Drenam Limited too early, before Gene could deal with Zorn, which was why Zorn had misunderstood and thought that Frank came to pull a scam. "That's Gene Pearce," he said, pointing at the frail man who needed help walking.

"That's him? He looks… sickly," Helen murmured, though anyone could see that Gene was in bad shape.

"Yeah. Some people close to him poisoned him with a bug. I cured him yesterday, so he agreed to transfer those land deeds to me."

Helen was surprised. "Are you saying that Gene has broken his promise?"

"No, he didn't—we came too early, before he could sort out his personal issues,"

Frank replied, watching as over a dozen men entered Drenam Limited with Gene.

"This might get dangerous," he murmured with a frown, as none of the men Gene brought were Ascendant rank.

"What?" Helen asked, puzzled.

Frank remained silent and kept frowning in thought for a moment before turning to Helen. "Drive back to Lanecorp right now. Gene is going to attack Zorn, and it's going to be a huge mess. You'll be in danger i you stay."

"What about you?" Helen asked worriedly.

"They won't even scratch me." Frank smiled. "Did you bring the transfer agreement?"

"Yeah." Helen picked up a document folder from the backseat and passed it to Frank.

"Okay." Frank nodded and got out of the car even as he urged Helen, "Now go back to Lanecorp .n for my word. I'll be back at I'm done here."

"Yeah, I'll wait. Be safe, okay?" Helen told him seriously.

"Yeah."

In reality, they did not need words as they could both see the trust in each other's eyes.

Frank watched as Helen's car disappeared from view before turning back to look at Drenam Limited's office building.

He scowled as he could see that Zorn was indeed Birthright rank from what he had done earlier.

However, he also practiced the Dyadese form.

It was a rare technique, and Frank

And Frank had gauged Zorn-the man just might really use that technique if pushed too far.

When that happened, his strength would skyrocket past Birthright rank up to Ascendant rank.

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1105-While Gene had brought many martial artists with him, it would not be enough if Zorn was cornered he might even turn the tables and massacre them instead.

That was why Frank decided to remain behind alone.

He could not allow Gene to get killed, or acquiring those land lots would be a pipe dream.

Putting away his document folder, he quietly sneaked down the hallway.

Unsurprisingly, he found Zorn and Gene in a standoff outside the office.

Zorn could clearly sense the hostility against him but asked, "Mr. Pearce, you asked me to check Drenam Limited's numbers, didn't you? Why did you come

here yourself and bring so many people?" On the other hand, Gene's men were trained well.

Even before Zorn noticed it, they had already moved to cut off all exits.

"Heh… Now that things have come to this, I'll just have to be frank with you, Zorn."

Gene was smiling even as his men helped him walk toward Zorn, but there was rage and disappointment in his eyes. "When did you start hooking up with Rory Thames?"

"What?! What are you talking about, Mr. Pearce?" Zorn exclaimed, clearly intent on denial even though his evasive gaze already sold him out.

"Come on, Zorn!" Gene shook his head in anguish. "We've been brothers for years, weathering every kind of storm to reach where we are today. That's why you know better than me what I'm like-I wouldn't mind letting you have Rory if you wanted, so why would you do this?!"

"What are you saying, Mr. Pearce?" Zorn took a step back, clearly guilty. "WWhat did I do?"

"Let's drop all pretenses already, Novelet Sighed, his k d further."left just Zorn gradually calmed down.

Briefly silent, he then asked, "It was Frank Lawrence, wasn't it? The kid from last night?"

"Yes," Gene admitted. "He cured me, even suggesting that it's those around me who poisoned me."

"I see… So that's why…" Gene murmured, remembering what Frank said as realization showed on his face.

Gene sighed again and said solemnly, "Despite what you've done, Zorn, I still remember our friendship. Just confess and come quietly, and I'll make things easier for you."

"Or, what?" Zorn smiled icily, giving up on all pretenses. "Are you going to kill me?"

"Do I have any other choice?" Gene retorted bluntly.

"I see…" Zorn actually appeared guilty for a moment, seemingly not prepared for his conspiracy to be exposed.

"What?!"

He soon trailed off, his voice losing strength as he realized what he Was.

saying.

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1106-To no surprise, Gene shook his head in disdain.

"Yes," he said calmly. "She was my partner, but she was also ruthless… I mean, poisoning me and watching as my health deteriorated by the day until the bugs inside me burst out of my belly? Talk about heinous!"

"I…"

Zorn tried to argue but did not have anything at all.

He hung his head in silence but soon looked up again, determined. "The plan was mine all along. I'm at fault-now let Rory go. You can do anything you want with me as long as you spare her."

"Too late," Gene said quietly. "Like I said, I'm done with her."

"What… Are you serious?!" Zorn gaped, the light of hope in his eyes fading.

Then, he started laughing maniacally and was getting louder by the moment until it became deafening.

"You really are cold, Gene!" he bellowed.

"I'm not the cold one here. It's you and Rory." Gene remained impassive as he retorted.

"Hahaha…" Zorn kept laughing. "Yes, I was cold… Hahaha! But I didn't think that you'd actually kill Rory!"

"Zorn, I've long since grown past my naive childhood." Gene mustered himself as he bellowed, "Seeing that we were friends for so long, I'll give you a chance if you just confess and accept your punishment!"

"Hahaha… A chance?!" Zorn suddenly looked up, his eyes red. "If you can give me a chance, why can't you do the same for Rory?!"

Gene's eyes narrowed as his tone turned icy. "Does that mean you're not taking it?"

"What do you think?" Zorn growled, stepping one foot forward, anima and animus combining as he unleashed his full power.

"Oh, pathetic. Utterly pathetic…"

Gene sighed, turning away after giving last look of disappointment at Zorn. "Going th farf for some woman… Kill With that quiet order to his men, the martial artists all bellowed, "Yes, sir!"

Even as they charged their vigors and leapt toward Zorn, Zorn bellowed, "Gene Pearce! You will die for murdering Rory!"

And with oncomia, he leapt towards the oncoming group of martial artists, and explosion thundered as he blew 6 a hole into the wall. Content

One of the martial artists screamed even as he was sent flying off they building he could hot dodge in time, añd Zorn's palm struck him in the abdomen, splitting him in half.

The remaining martial artists were stunned by Zorn's brute powen, but they had no reasoh to back down now.

"Together!"

"Skyarch Jab!"

"Savage Blade!"

"Hedgehog Poke!"

They were not holding back, using their respective strongest techniques.

Naturally, even Zorn had a hard time when attacked by so many martial elites at once.

He was going to escape through the hole he blasted into the wall, but they quickly moved to encircle him.

Even as the martial arts kept pressing their attack and Zorn was about to crumble, he belowed, "Well, you forded me! "Charging his Dyadese technique, animus and anima fuse as his cultivation skyrocketed to Ascendant rank!

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1107-What?!"

The martial artist closest to Zorn could not react in time as Zorn's fist struck him.

His head exploded like a watermelon right then, leaving a gory sight of redness.

"What?! He's Ascendant rank?!"

The other martial artist around Zorn could immediately sense that something was wrong.

After all, Ascendant ranks were more than superior against Birthright ranks, with their highly condensed pure vigor that they wielded freely.

Naturally, there were freaks such as Frank whom that rule did not apply to-he was only full-fledged Birthright rank, but most Ascendant ranks would have a hard time against him.

Only peak Ascendant ranks would be able to force Frank to play his trump cards, and that was thanks to his regression three years ago. Thanks to improving up to full-fledged Birthright rank twice, Frank's pure vigor was more abundant and more condensed that even some Ascendant ranks would not compare.

And now, Frank himself was hidden on the other end of the hallway, quietly observing as Zorn fused animus and anima to go on a rampage.

Frank actually frowned as he watched the man handily dispatch two Birthright ranks-the Dyadese form was really strong. None of the martial artists stood a chance against Zorn now, and if he was allowed free rein, he would kill Gene too.

However, Frank had no intention to fight just yet, because he had his own plans in mind.

It was true what they say about a friend in need, but meddling now would make him appear impetuous and impertinent, since he was not Gene's subordinate.

Nonetheless, Zorn killed two more martial artists in no time at all.

He had a bleeding head in each hand as he strode toward Gene with a savage smile. "You will pay with your life, Gene!"

"Stop him!"

The martial artist all charged toward Zorn without an ounce of self-preservation, intent on taking him down by using numbers like they did earlier.

To their dismay, Zorn was unstoppable and killed everyone in his way, unleashing blasts of pure vigor from his palm. The entire building rumbled even as he killed any martial artist in front and behind.

him. śFindNovel.net Screams resounded and gore ensued until he took out the last martial artist standing.

Wiping the blood off his face, Zorn flashed a barbaric grin at Gene. "You wanted to kill me, didn't you? But it seems the men you've brought aren't up to task!"

"I was pressed for time-they were all I can bring," Gene said calmly even as he watched Zorn slowly approach him.

In fact, he did not try to run or fight and actually stared at Zorn with composure before shaking his head in disappointment. "If I had more time, I'd bring more. What a pity…"

"Pity? Not really?" Zorn kept grinning. "The same thing would happen even if you brought more."

"You might be right. Anyway, I have one last thing to ask."

Gene appeared hesitant but calmly spoke, "Mr. Lawrence might arrive soon, and he'd be asking for you to transfer the land deeds which you'ye won at that tender days ago. It'd be worth nothing in your hands anyway-it would be better to just selt it. It's an agreement I had with him yesterday, so I'd ask that you transfer those land deeds to Lanecorp even if you kill me.

Consider it my last request." Content Zorn's expression turned cool—even if it was a last request, the way Gene spoke to him was no different from the way he always ordered him around.

"You still think I serve you? Even now?" Zorn asked icily.

"Certainly." Gene shrugged. "I value honor above all else, and Pearce Group will still be around even after I'm gone."

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1108-Zorn's expression contorted as he saw that Gene could face death with such calmness, even treating Zorn as if he was still at his beck and call.

He actually felt that he would be losing by killing Gene just like that!

And seeing the solemness in Gene's eyes, he actually hesitated.

"Ah, I remember how you swore to follow me for the rest of your life over a decade ago…"

Gene suddenly sighed as he reminisced, smiling as if he was reliving that very moment. "We were the best of friends as children, and though we parted ways for a while, you came to me in desperation… a hunted man. Even so, I trusted you unconditionally.

"Every word you said back then was so earnest that they're ingrained in my memory… I can remember them even now. You're the one friend I trusted in this life, and yet—"

Chuckling bitterly, Gene finished, "Ah, how ironic fate can be."

His recollection left Zorn taken aback, and guilt showed on his visage.

It was true-Gene had helped him in his most depseprate hour, or he would have been killed by his enemies already.

Even so…

Banishing all the recollection Gene invoked from his mind, Zorn bellowed, "It's pointless to say anything now! You will die, Gene Pearce!"

Charging his pure vigor, he swung his palm straight at Gene.

If it hits, Gene would not fare any better than the martial artist who had his head blown apart earlier.

"Foolishness." Gene sighed, closing his eyes and clearly embracing death.

Bang!

But that was when Frank moved.

Emerging out of hiding, he was suddenly in front of Gene, parrying his palm.

"Ooooh…" He murmured as he glanced at his smoking palm, once again surprised by the depth of Zorn's strength.

"What?!"

On the other hand, Zorn was sent stumbling backward just as he thought he had killed Gene.

He could blooeel his meridians churning and almost coughed a coughed a mouthful of if he had not kept it in with all his strength. Content belon FindNovel.net SW Then, as he looked up at the nonchalant Frank, his heart sank.

Just from that one blow, he could already think that Frank was amore troublespre opponent than he expected.

Gene, who thought he was dead, opened his eyes to find Frank standing in front of himself.

"Mr. Lawrence?" he exclaimed in surprise but soon realized that Frank must have game here to discuss the handover of the land lots he asked for.

However, he just happened to run into Gene cleaning house and saved him from Zord before he could deal the killing blow.

"Is this fate…?"

It certainly was, from a point of view.

But even as Gene was surprised that Frank was accomplished as a healer and a martial artist, he could not help but wonder if Frank stood a chance against Zorn, after Zor had slain so many martial artists in no time at all.

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1109-Gene calmly read the situation.

Since Frank was young and an accomplished healer, he would definitely not have time to study martial arts extensively.

If anything, parrying Zorn's blow earlier must have taken everything out of him-if he stayed any longer, he would die horribly like the martial artists Gene had brought.

And since Frank had already saved his life, Gene was reluctant to see Frank throw away his life like this.

As such, he said, "Mr. Lawrence, this is between me and Zorn. Please don't interfere—you should leave when you can."

"Hehe…" Frank chuckled instead of leaving, even turning to Gene to ask, "Are you sure I won't win, Mr. Pearce?"

"Oh…" Gene was left stumped by the question.

He certainly could not say that he believed Frank, just as he did not want Frank to push himself.

And after musing to himself for a long while, Gene shook his head in resignation. "Mr. Lawrence, Zorn and I have been friends since childhood-I won't drag you into our fight. After all, I'm grateful that you saved my life before, and rest assured that you will be given the land lots you asked for."

Turning toward Zorn, he asked, "Can you do that, Zorn?"

Zorn did a double take and quickly counted the time he had left while gauging Frank's strength, and he soon came to an awkward conclusion.

He was not sure if he could win against the mysterious youth.

After all, he could not gauge anything about Frank even now!

After a moment of silence, he nodded and said, "You may leave, Mr. Lawrence.

Once I'm done with Gene, Lanecorp will be given the land you're asking for, and I promise not to cause you further trouble." "You heard him, Mr. Lawrence."

Gene chuckled despite his cough. "You will get what you want. You should leave now."

Frank glanced between Gene and Zorn but eventually shook his head as both men watched.

"Mr. Pearce," Frank said, "you're still my patient. And since you have y to make a full recovery, I'm obliged to protect and care foleat Then, turning toward Zorn, he growled, "Leave right now, and I won't kill you."

"What?"

Zorn thought he had misheard for a moment, though he soon appeared amused and leaned his ear toward Frank. "I'm sorry, what was that again?"

"Mr. Lawrence…" Gene tried to dissuade Frank again.

Frank ignored him, however, and slowly strode up as he repeated quietly, "Leave right now, and I won't kill you."

"Heh… hehehe… Hahaha!!!" Zorn burst in laughter, shaking his head. "I don't know where you're from, kid, but you know that I practice the Dyadese form. I'm sure you know the state I'm in?"

"I do." Frank nodded earnestly. "In five minutes, your meridian nexus will be crippled, your meridians wift be cut oft and you'll be a cripple. At that point, no one needs to lift a finger to deal with you." S

"Then what else is there to talk about?!"

Zorn raised his palms and charged at Frank. "If you won't back down, you will die with Gene!" Then you're delusional!"

Frank watched as Zorn charged toward himself rapidly, completely on his toes.

Five-Peat Archaeus danced between his meridians, and abundant pure vigor erupted out ofhisbody.o M Naturally Zor could see that immediately. "Hmm? You've completed Birthright rank?

Impressive!"

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1110-Zorn had no idea how Frank had managed to elude his observation before, though he was still relieved after sensing the true extent of Frank's strength.

While a full-fledged Birthright rank was strong, Frank was still no match for him!

"Die!!!" Zorn bellowed, putting all his strength behind his strongest strike and not wanting further trouble.

Whether he killed Frank banked on this..

Naturally, he was only doing this because he saw that Frank was really to die defending Gene.

If Frank decided to dodge instead, Zorn's strike would hit Gene instead, and he would definitely be a dead man.

As such, if Frank wanted Gene to live, he must take the full brunt of his blow!

Black and white pure vigor was projected out of thin air from Zorn's palm, mixing into a grayness that ignited a storm.

The entire building was shaking-such was the most powerful blow of an Ascendant rank.

"Hmph…"

Frank had no intention of dodging anyway.

He watched as Zorn approached with his violent strike, resolved to meet it with his own.

After all, he would like to see how strong the Dyadese technique really was.

Feeling the Five-Peat Archaeus running through the meridian cycles in his body, Frank took a deep breath and focused his pure vigor on his right hand. Soon, a bright glow appeared at the center of his palm, and one could seem to hear the flowing of a stream.

"Mirages? His martial technique actually conjures mirages?!"

Zorn was left staring in astonishment, but he could not back down now.

Pushing his surging power, he directed every bit of energy he had into his outstretched palm, hoping that it would take Frank down instantly!

"Cloud Valley."

Frank finally looked up even as Zorn closed in, his expression impassive as he breathed the name of the technique.

Zorn did a double take as he seemed to see a valley that stretched on for hundreds of miles, breathing out a tide of clouds toward him.

His strike seemed to fade in the whiteness, crushed by the might of the valley.

Soon, his palm, his arm, and then his entire body was pulverized even as he looked on in fear.

"T-That's Birthright rank…?!" That was all he could exclaim in shock as darkness overcame him, and he could no longer feel anything.

Even Gene could see that Zorn did not even last one turn against Frank.

His full-power blow was no more than child's play against the horrific shockwave left in the wake of Frank's palm strike.

As a matter of fact, he did not even have time to scream as Frank's smack reduced him into a puff of bloody mist, scattered amid the hallway.

In the distance, Bob and Rob returned, leading a large group of "

Nonetheless, they dropped to knees audibly along with their strike, fear and confusion showing on their faces.

"The whole building is collapsing!"

someone yelled, and everyone in the building scampered as they fled.
