Ch. 1281..1290

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1281-Gene was quite the sly old fox, quickly inflating the price up to five billion before anyone could react.

However, while Tet had confirmed that the Jade Marrow Pill was real, they doubted that it could really extend one's lifespan.

As such, with Gene going all out from the start with a five billion bid, the hall was left silent.

Gene was exceedingly pleased to see that, but before he could announce that he won the bid, Tet strode up despite his hesitation.

"Apologies, Mr. Pearce, but I need this because it's more than just a pill to me,"

he said and raised his hand. "I'm making a bid with everything I have-thirty

billion."

"What?!"

"Thirty billion?!"

All the guests in the hall gasped at the number.

They were all individuals who were not in need of money, but it was still too much for them to pay thirty billion dollars to bet on a tiny pill with uncertain effects.

Gene was scowling right then, but considering that it was Tet, he sighed. "Do you mean to mess with me, magister?"

"No, that's not my intention." Tet shook his head. "There's just a lot on the line-I need to show this to my mentor and have him decide."

"Magister Boran's… mentor?"

"He has one? Never heard of it…"

Tet could certainly hear the people around him talking, and he had been warned not to reveal anything about his mentor.

However, he gritted his teeth for the sake of his pill as he admitted, "My mentor is an immortal who lives in seclusion at the South Sea. I've been his apprentice for over fifty years, but I had nothing to show for for it and was exiled. But with this pill, Pcan go back to see him. As such, I'm apologizing to you beforehand, Mr. Pearce."

"An immortal at the South Sea…"

Frank naturally heard what Tet said and wondered who the immortal was.

Gene and the other guests were all shocked, as Tet was a master of mysticism and an Ascendant rank martial artist.

In that case, his mentor would definitely be someone profound, and that left Gene hesitating.

That was when Frank turned toward Gene, leaning in to speak under his breath, You shouldn't compete with the magister here, or things would get out of hand if you provoke the immortal backing him."

Gene was naturally worried about that too and nodded.

Still, he was a little reluctant to give up, and Frank could tell that he was.

Chuckling, he added, "I have another such pill, and it's available at the fane Holdings' farm resort in Riverton. You just heed to make a trip to get it."

"Okay!"

Gene cheered up right then, feeling

no qualms as he spread his hands.

and announced generously, "In that case, the Jade Marnan Pillis Sold to Magister Boran! He had been there to offer guidance in my hour of need, and he saved my life too!"

Tet breathed a sigh of relief and nodded at Gene in gratitude.

He was old, but he could read the room enough to see that Frank had helped him since he had been whispering to Gene earlier.

Otherwise, he would never beat Gene in a bidding war.

With that in mind, he nodded at Frank too.

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1282-"Heh…"

Frank smiled and held up a hand-it really was nothing, though Frank did earn himself a favor.

"Sold! The Jade Marrow Pill goes to Magister Boran for thirty billion dollars!"

Gene announced.

Even as the guest clapped, they were left a loss-thirty billion, gone just like that!

And for a tiny pill… It was just ridiculous!

Nonetheless, with the pill sold, the charity auction continued.

However, the guests were not particularly interested in anything else after Frank's pill was sold for an astronomical price.

And with that, the charity auction ended.

It was late by the time Frank left the hotel.

Gene tried to ask him to stay for dinner, but Frank did not want to stay since he wanted to return to condition himself.

Seeing that he was in a hurry, Gene caught his wrist and asked, "Mr. Lawrence, we're basically brothers-your enemies are mine, and I will be there to back you up no matter what happens. Just name-drop me if anyone's being rude to you, and you can avoid what happened today."

Frank could see the determined look in Gene's eyes and that he was being sincere, and having Gene as a front also meant not having to worry about money.

Nodding, he also joked, "People always think of me as a trouble maker, so I'll be imposing plenty from now on."

"Not a problem-impose all you want! Hahaha…" Gene laughed heartily. Having a friend as wise and as strong as Frank was certainly a boost to his already considerable influence!

"By the way, Mr. Lawrence!"

Gene then remembered. "I've dealt with Dennis Jackson and his family, and that means Zamri Hospitalis leaderless. Would you happen to have anyone in mind?"

"What?" Frank was puzzled-why would Gene ask him?

Still, he noticed the look in Gene's eyes and realized that Gene meant to let him take over leadership of Zamri Hospital.

And since Dennis was one of Zamri's Three Bears, the hospital would have a good reputation.

Moreover, it had branches in various regions around the city, and yearly revenue reached up to a billion each year.

Gene was certainly generous, giving.

away leadership of such a hospital to Frank just like that-he certainly was the richest man of the east coast.

UMS However, a hospital would not do any good for Frank-he was not the type who could sit still in an office.

If anything, he could settle down at Lanecorp before hejust/happehed to get a quier place to himself to train.

Moreover, being the chief of Lanecorp's health and security M departmentwas ahidle job, unlike the chief of a hospital.

Still, before he could refuse Gene, he remembered another person-Winter Lawrence.

She had just graduated and was looking for an internship-why not let her be chief?

It was actually a little hilarious when Frank thought about it.

Still, he had every intention to groom

Winter and teach her Draconian traditional medicine which Frank himselfilad learned from Sect.

Swtic Sky That was why the arrangement was as suitable as it was hilarious.

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1283-With that in mind, Frank turned toward Gene. "Sorry, I can't sit still and I hate troublesome work, so I can't be a hospital chief." "Really? Then there's no helping it…"

Disappointment showed in Gene's eyes, but he did not press Frank.

That was when Frank smiled as his tone changed sharply. "But I have a person in mind."

"Who?" Gene exclaimed in surprise.

"My sister, Winter Lawrence."

"Winter Lawrence?"

Gene murmured the name, and frowned. "Well, she would have to prove herself with her abilities…"

"Don't worry-she graduated from Riverton University, and I'll be teaching her personally too. She'd definitely be up for it."

Gene's frown eased with Frank's assurance, and he nodded, satisfied. "In that case, the new chief of Zamri Hospital is decided. When can your sister take the job?"

"In a month," Frank said after some thought.

"Alright." Gene smiled, agreeing to it right away. "Since she's your sister, I trust you, though I must give you a head's up-the head of departments in the hospital can be a little proud. Your sister should be careful about that."

"Understood."

Frank nodded and left the hotel, getting his Audi and driving off.

Gene watched as he did, unable to hide his delight.

He always had a sharp perspective, and he could see that Frank was the real deal despite his subtle nature.

And as Frank took to the skies in the future, Gene would definitely enjoy a share of the spoils too.

Frank returned to the top floor guest rooms of Lanecorp, where he and Helen usually stayed.

They had yet to get a house in Zamri, so they just had to make do.

In fact, Frank only remembered about needing a house when he returned he really should have asked Gene.

While he was not concerned where he stayed, Helen was always busy and it hurt him to see her not sleeping well. "Alright, I'll check out a place tomorrow,"

Frank muttered to himself.

Since Winter would be moving to Zamri soon as well, buying a mansion like the one he h Skywater Bay was define ad al.net must.

He also had the gold card that Gene gave him before, so he was not worried about money.

With that in mind, he whipped out his phone to call Winter.

He had not been in touch ever since the awkwardness from before, when he had to change Winter's clothes.

Winter seemed to understand that tacitly and did not contact Frank too.

"Hello, Winter?" Frank asked gingerly once Winter answered.

"F-Frank? Is something the matter?" Winter stammered a little.

"I have something to tell you face-to-face. Are you free right now?"

"Y-Yes! Wait…" Winter flinched as

she realized that she was getting too thrilled and quickly changed them subject Aren't You in Zamri right now?"

"Yeah. And I'm going to bring you over."

"What?!"

Winter was changing shoes and almost slipped, her cheeks flushing beet red

Winter was changing shoes and almost slipped, her cheeks flushing beet red

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1284-Winter asked her mother Carol Zims too, but Carol had no idea what had happened too.

The only possibility was that Frank had changed her clothes, which means he would have seen her body…

That was why Winter had been at once embarrassed and scared, picking up her phone endless times but unable to call Frank.

And now, Frank was saying that he was taking her to Zamri… did that mean he was taking responsibility?

She stood, one hand holding her shoe and the other holding her phone, her cheeks flushed as she froze in place.

"Winter?! Winter!"

Frank had to shout over the phone to bring Winter to her senses, just as she noticed that she was smiling blissfully for some reason. "Oh, I'm here. Frank.

You're taking me to Zamri, right? I'll be there right now -wait…"

Hearing Winter fumble on the other end, Frank asked in concern, "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine! I'm fine!" Winter quickly said. "I'm heading to a gathering with my classmates right now. Can you come to White Court Hotel if you can make it?"

"White Court Hotel? Got it." Frank agreed to it briskly and hung up.

Winter kept holding her phone for a long while as her heart raced and thumped, feeling dizzy and hardly believing that it was real.

Carol just so happened to return home to find Winter with that silly grin on her face and went over to pat her on the head. "What's gotten into you now, girlie?"

"Hehehe… I'm going to Zamri, Mommy!" Winter twirled happily.

"What's so great about that?" Carol smiled wryly.

"Oh, you won't get it!" Winter huffed and returned to her room to pick a new dress.

She naturally had to wear her best dress to see Frank.

Carol looked on, feeling slightly pleased since only Frank would make Winter that happy.

And he had gone out of touch for a while after going to Zamri for some reason…

Soon, a beautifully dressed Winter left, taking a cab to White Court Hotel.

However, her smile froze awkwardly after she arrived and was led by a bellboy to a large private room.

It was not just her classmates-there were several men she did not recognize, lecturing her classmates with an air of seniority even though they were barely any older.

"Uh… What?"

Before one of classmates giggled. "Qh, looker could ask questions, look! The belle of Riverton University Sarrived!"

Everyone else turned towards Winter as well, and the men's eyes tituplas winter taly made an effort to look pretty.

One of them even pulled out a chair for her. "Come over here, your dah sit.

beside me

"Oh… Haha, I'm fine." Winter waved him off awkwardly and quietly sat"

domp beside Jean Zims.

Staring at the unfamiliar man, she asked under her breath, "Who are e these people, Jean? I though are et just our classmates?"

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1285-"Oh, them?"

Jean pursed her lips in disdain, exasperated. "They're our seniors by a few years, and Yew Daley was the one who called them here, saying that they can help us with our internship issues."

"I see." Winter nodded, but before she could say more, a man with stubble all over his cheeks and who clearly meant business sat down right beside Winter.

"What's your name?" he asked, while looking Winter from head to toe pointedly as he inched closer.

"I-I'm Winter Lawrence," she replied, frowning while keeping her distance.

"Oh, Winter? Such a nice name…"

The man chuckled and pointed at himself. "I'm Dean Summer. I'm your senior by a year, and I'm a physiologist at the Riverton Hospital subsidiary."

"Over there is Sunny Cabat, an ophthalmologist at Riverton Hospital."

"And over there is Jarek Wilk, who owns a small hospital in Norsedam."

The men Dean introduced all smiled and nodded at Winter, but they were looking at her sinisterly.

Sensing their intention, Winter sprang to her feet and pulled Jean along. "Then Jean and I won't impose. We have something else to do, so we will be going now."

"Wait, wait, wait…"

Seeing that such delicious prey was fleeing, Dean quickly got up and stood in their way, grinning, "Ladies, I'm guessing you don't know the rules of medical internship since you've just graduated?" "What rules?" Jean asked coolly.

"Oh, there are just the two, and they're the same every year."

Dean glanced at his two friends, and they all traded smiles. "Since you're getting an internship, you'll have work at a better hospital, which means you'll need a recommendation…. You understand that rule, don't you?"

Winter scowled and asked coolly, "What are you trying to say?"

"Patience. Like I said, there are two rules."

Dean grinned, shaking his head. "We're your seniors, and we have every reason to give you a recommendation. But…"

Pausing, Dean leered at Winter's body, lust almost showed on his

face even as he chuckled. "But we don't exactly have a lot of free so if you want our

vele recommendation… don't you think you should sweeten our pot?"

"So you're asking us to prostitute ourselves, in exchange for your m recommendation letter?'

Jean was blunt as always, barely hiding her thoughts with her cold smile.

Dean was taken aback but soon

smiled and sighed, clicking his tongue. "Come on, Jean. Do you have to make it sound so bad? Don't you know how much longerjil takelto complete a full Internship? That's over three to five years learning from doctors, and you only get personally meet the patients after that. Even then, there are still more assessments and reviews you have to go through… all in all, you're looking at ten years."

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1286-Dean sneered. "But that's not the case if you have a referral letter. With that, you'll just have to work as an intern for a couple of months before you receive cases directly. In a few years, you will be promoted. Remember I sacrificed myself to get you this opportunity. How could you call this prostitution?"

"That's right, Jean."

Yew sprang to her feet as she added coolly, "Our senior worked hard for this opportunity for our sake-we must seize it. And it's no big deal anyway-what's the difference between doing it with a boyfriend and our senior?"

"Shut up!"

Jean snapped at her, "Do you think everyone's just like you? Does your boyfriend know what you've been doing while he's working to pay for your tuition?! You're cheating on him and prostituting yourself, so don't think you can tell us what to do here!"

"Shut up!"

Yew bellowed, springing to her feet like a cat that had its tail stomped on. "He may have funded my studies, but our social standing is different now! He's just a wage slave, while I'm going to be a chief of the department in a hospital! What I do is none of your business!"

Jean laughed despite herself and pulled Winter along as they headed for the door. "Come on. I thought they're just some friends Yew brought along, but turns out it's just her bringing her shady dealing to us. The thought that she's been our classmate for years disgusts me."

"Yeah." Winter nodded, feeling contempt toward Yew just then.

Even now, she remembered that man of their age, who always had a kind smile and came to visit Yew whenever he had a holiday.

She certainly felt sorry for him-he would definitely despair if he knew what Yew was doing now.

However, before Winter and Jean could leave, Dean, Jarek, and Sunny stopped them.

"Hmph. It was already too late when you came in here!" Dean sneered.

"Exactly." Sunny chuckled coolly. "Did you think we'd let you leave and rat us out?"

"You'll take our recommendation letter, even if you don't want it!" Jarek snapped.

They were all supposedly practicing medicine, but there was not an ounce of conscience to be found in their behavior.

Jarek seized Jean's wrist and shoved her against the wall right then, licking his lips as he chuckled coldly.

"Love wildcats like you the most! The look on your face when you finally cry and beg for me to let you go… Hehehe!"

"Fuck you!" Jean snapped.

The other girls panicked right then.

They were aware of the purpose of this gathering and silently consented.

They just did not expect their upperclassman to go for it directly!

However, none of them dared to say a ven as they watched and

That was when the door was suddenly kicked open, knockingm Sunny to the floor since he was blocking it.

"Shit, who the fuck..?!" Sunny cursed as he pushed himself off the floan, dusting his glothes while glaring furiously at the figure that had just entered.

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1287-"Frank…"

Even as the men tore at Winter's clothes, her eyes lit up in excitement as she watched the door being kicked wide open.

But it was a tanned man with a mean glare, looking around in his thirties, who stood there.

There were more men behind him filing into the room, clearly having helped the man kick the door open.

"Hmph." Ivor Bearson snorted. "You scumbags couldn't wait for the rest of us?"

"Oh… I'm so sorry, Mr. Bearson!"

Sunny promptly flashed a fawning smile, at once standing at attention.

Dean let go of Winter too and moved to stand alongside Jarek like obedient children.

"It's not Frank…"

Winter felt gnawing disappointment inside her, but she soon realized that she always thought of Frank whenever she was in danger.

Was she getting too dependent on him?

Before Winter came to her senses, however, Ivor was in front of him, grinning sleazily as he lifted her chin with a finger.

"Tut, tut… the girls these years really look good. I'll have this one!"

"Haha! That's Ivor for you, picking Riverton University's most beautiful face at once."

"Hahaha…"

Ivor laughed as everyone around him flattered him, while he was clearly gleeful about his judgment.

"I'm warning you!" Jean snapped coldly as she strode up, shielding Winter behind her. "Winter's brother is a friend of the Turnbulls. He invited every bigwig in Riverton during our convocation! He'll show you if you lay a finger on Winter!"

Jean's outburst left the room silent, with Dean, Jarek, and Sunny a little wary.

However, Ivor was soon laughing loudly. "Riverton bigwigs? Well, I'm not from Riverton-and Riverton bigwigs are nothing in Zamri!"

"Don't worry," he assured Dean, Jarek, and Sunny, "you'll be fine as long as I'm around!"

The three men laughed in relief at that while Ivor sneered at Winter"So, your brother grabild deal? Haha… Why don't you call him to come over right now?"

"J-Just you wait! His name is Frank Lawrence, and he will be here soon!" Winter shouted even as she hid in a corner.

"Hahaha… Frank Lawrence? Never even heard of him!"

Ivor lifted Winter's chin and chuckled nonchalantly "But I don't like using force. So submit to me, and a spare you and your stupid brother after.

häve my fun. Naturally, I can stil recommend you for an internship at Zamri Hospital, or even a promotion.

to become an assistant chief of a department. But if you resist me…"

Ivor suddenly glowered as he grabbed Winter's neck, choking her as he laughed, "don't lindf letting you watch while I kill him and do you over his corpse. You'll get nothing even after that, understand?"

Winter turned to look outside and found over twenty black-clad bodyguards standing there.

Winter despaired right then-those burly men were all clearly not to be trifled with, and even Frank would not win against them if he came!

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1288-Despite her pain and struggling herself, Winter nodded.

"Hahaha… Now that's a smart girl!"

Ivor laughed and waved. "Go on, you can each pick one-but don't you dare take mine!"

The other men filed into the room, and chaos ensued as they started to do whatever they wanted with Winter's classmates, with some already taking their pick to the hotel room.

Even as Winter closed her eyes, another woman covered in bandages arrived outside and stood with the bodyguards.

It was none other than Aria Lond, Winter's ex-best friend.

She was still nursing a bitter grudge against the White family and Frank, after Jorg Zayas of Sage Lake Sect maimed her at White Hall.

Even after two months of rehabilitation, she was only able to walk, which made her spite toward Frank even worse.

Nonetheless, she happened to be aware of the casting couch rule for Riverton University medical students.

Each year, many girls would spread their legs just to secure that recommendation letter for the sake of their internships.

As such, Aria sought out Yew and told her about that while pulling strings to contact Ivor, whose father was Troy Bearson, one of Zamri's Three Bears.

She convinced Ivor to help, so that Frank would show up when Winter got into trouble, since Frank would definitely come to her aid.

When he did, Aria would just have to watch as the men went at each other's throats.

Aria certainly had the right idea, but she underestimated Frank's abilities.

After all, Frank was no longer his injured self she saw back at Riverton, when Sage Lake Sect managed to give him a hard time.

Now, Frank just had to lift a finger vaporize some mook like Ivor hoping for a pyrrhic victory was just futile. Content Victool ne belongs to At the same time, Frank happened to arrive at White Court Hotel.

He was familiar with the place, as the White family owned it, and he was close to Kim White.

However, when he arrived outside the private room Winter told him about, he saw over twenty bodyguards standing outside, while all kinds of screams were resounding from inside the room.

Frank frowned right then.

"Stop! What do you think you're doing?!" he snapped.

"I'm looking for someone," Frank replied impassively.

He refrained from attacking, because he did not hear Winter's voice from the room.

He gave the bodyguards standing at the back a look, who nodded and entered the room.

It took two minutes for the bodyguard to return, just as Winter shouted from inside, "Frank! Run!!!"

"Take him down!" the bodyguard who had just stepped out shouted, relaying Ivor's order at the same time.

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1289-"What?!"

Frank came to his senses as soon as he heard Winter's voice-she was being held against her will!

Just as the bodyguards lunged at Frank as they were told, Frank heard someone curse and slap Winter viciously.

And how did Frank know that?

Because he could hear Winter groaning after being hit.

"You're all going to die!" Frank bellowed furiously as his eyes turned red right then, and he leapt up to seize the bodyguard by the neck, crushing it like jelly.

Kicking away the other bodyguards who rushed him, Frank shoved a burst of pure vigor into the lifeless corpse of the bodyguard, and…

Bang!

The body erupted violently, splashing blood everywhere.

The bodyguards closest to Frank were screaming as they collapsed to the floor, and the bones in the exploding body pierced their bodies.

"What?!"

The other bodyguards turned pale when they saw the horrors Frank inflicted, and all of them tried to flee.

Frank was not about to give these abettors the chance.

He charged after them with a battlecry and punched into the chest of a bodyguard who tried to parry his fist, leaving him croaking as he dropped to his floor. "Please! Mercy!"

Another bodyguard was on his knees, pleading for mercy-he certainly had no intention to fight back when Frank was basically the reaper incarnate! "Fuck off!"

Frank bellowed and sent the bodyguard flying with a kick.

The bodyguard slammed into the door of the private room, knocking it open.

"What the f-"

Even before someone could finish that sentence, screams ensued-Frank's kick had blown the pleading bodyguard in two!

Shocked and furious, Ivor came charging out of the private room to see what had happened outside, only to find a man glowering as he stood, surrounded by a pile of corpses.

His twentyish bodyguards were resting in pieces, all their bodies mangled.

"Bleurgh…"

Ivor had certainly never seen such savagery, and he dropped to his knees in terror as he started puking.

Frank strode up, pulling him up by the hair as he growled icily, "You're the one who hit my sister?"

"Y-You're Frank Lawrence…?!"

Ivor was trembling in terror-he thought Frank was just some m frivolous charactet, Only to discover that he was a merciless incarnation of terror!

Even as he saw the murderous glare in Frank's eyes, terror overwhelmed him, leaving him speechless.

"Hmph. So it was you." Frank snorted and knocked Ivor to the floor likeran upturned tortise before raising his fdet and stomping on Ivor's wrist.

"Argh!!!"

Ivor screamed as his wrist and palm were crushed, but Frank did not stop there.

With another stomp, he reduced Ivor's other arm into mush.

The agony seemed to jolt Ivor to his senses, and he bellowed at Frank "You're a dead man you hear me?!

My father is Troy Bearson, and he's one of Zamri's Three Bears! You-"

Crunch!

The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage Chapter 1290-Even before Ivor could finish his maniacal ravings, Frank crushed his ankles under his foot.

"Argh!!!" Even as Ivor screamed hysterically, he finally felt fear.

After all, there could only be two reasons Frank would keep going despite Ivor name-dropping his own father-the first being that Frank's connections were far more powerful, and the second, that Frank did no have connections but was dead set on killing him.

Whatever reason it might be, things would not end well for him.

As such, despite the agony, he started to plead endlessly to Frank, "Please, I surrender, I surrender! Please don't kill me!"

Terror showed in his eyes even as he felt Frank's foot near his nape-he would really die if Frank shoved his foot down!

"Hmph…"

Feeling Frank taking his foot away from his nape, Ivor breathed a sigh of relief, only for him to feel the heartrending pain from his hand and leg again.

'Motherfucker! Messing with me just because you're a martial artist?! Once I return to Zamri alive… I will send the Blood Wolves after you!' Ivor's eyes flashed viciously even as he thought that, when he felt himself rise into the air.

Before he realized it, he was slammed violently into the floor.

The agony left Ivor tearing up in agony, and he cursed even as he struggled.

"Now, apologize…" Frank growled as he placed his foot on Ivor's neck.

Ivor could not care less about the pain when he felt the fear of death so profoundly, and he used all his strength to look up at a shocked Winter. "I told you to apologize, didn't you hear?"

Frank pressed his foot down just then, and Ivor immediately struggled to breathe.

He quickly apologized to Winter. "Sorry! I'm so sorry, ma'am… I'm scum, I shouldn't have done this…"

Winter came to her senses at Ivor's apology, and she certainly did not care about the crimson palm print on her cheek when she saw the man who was always on her mind.

She held a hand over her mouth as her tears rained down.

Thinking that Winter had suffered because of that and did not forgive Ivor, Frank pressed his foot down further. "That's insincere! Kowtow!" "Okay, okay!"

Ivor cried as he dropped on all fours like a tortoise and kowtowed repeatedly.

Blood started to seep out of his forehead soon enough.

"Stop! Stop! I'm fine, Frank!"

Realizing that Frank misunderstood, Winter ran up and wrapped her arms around Fragk, her tears turning to a smile. "You've always come to save me… I'm so… so…"

"Alright." Frank calmed down and moved his foot away from Ivor.

He turned to see the other men who were all staring at him in fear and, was suddenly confused.

As such, he asked Winter in his arms. "I thought this was a gathering of your classmates? What's going on here?"

Nearby, Jean shook his head exasperatedly-Frank really had a serious case of sister complex, going on a horrific killing spree even when he had no idea what was going on.

She strode up and told Frank about everything that had happened, ang Frank glowered even as he listened.

EVentually, Dean, Jarek, and Sunny all succumbed to pressure and dropped to their knees in front of Frank.
