Ch. 851..860

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 851-Kat was completely oblivious to the dramatic events that had transpired.

It was the first time she visited the grand abode of one of Morhen's most illustrious families, and she was excitedly strolling everywhere under the supervision of the family butler.

She was not distracted at all, despite the bolts from the blue, or the shockwave ensuing when Frank and Ciril's fists collided.

She was still jubilant even as she and Frank were heading back. "Once I get rich, I'm definitely living like that!"

In contrast, her cottage certainly stung the eye no matter how she looked at it now!

It was not until they almost returned to the cottage when Kat remembered Frank was visiting the Janko Gardens for business. "By the way, weren't you going to treat Ciril Janko's illness? Did it work?"

Not wanting her to ask for more details, Frank shook his head noncommittally.

"Ah, so it's a dud?" Kat shook her head in disappointment. "I mean, 800 million dollars… Tut, tut! Shame you missed out, huh?"

Naturally, she had no idea that the check Yed wrote was right inside Frank's pocket.

On the other hand, Nash breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that both Frank and Kat returned safely. He obviously had questions for Frank but could only scratch his head awkwardly in silence.

Frank turned toward him. "Just say what's on your mind."

"Hmph." Kat, however, was immediately in a bad mood when she saw her own father frowning and headed straight for her room.

And for once, Nash did not lecture her—he simply watched as she left.

Then, after hesitating for a while, he finally began awkwardly, "Mr. Lawrence.

See, Kat is still young. I mean, she has just become an adult, and."

"Huh?" Frank stared at him, perplexed.

"I mean." Nash remained flustered, unable to find his words even as he tried to shoot Frank looks that would make him understand.

However, Frank remained utterly mystified.

"Mr. Lawrence." Nash eventually gritted his teeth and sighed. "Kat is still too young to get a boyfriend or spend the night outside. So."

"Oh."

As Frank nodded in understanding, Nash smiled in relief, but only to stiffen when Frank rubbed his chin and explained politely, "Well, it's normal for kids to start dating young these days, but not to worry—I'll do my best to keep her away from the unseemly sort."

"Uh…" Nash was left blinking blankly—he was actually worried that Frank was the one who would get it on with his daughter!

He was an important guest of the Turnbull family. and it would really be troubling if his daughter and Frank really started dating.

"Well, it's late. I'm going to bed now." Frank nodded, not paying attention to the look on Nash's face as he returned to his room without a care.

"Urgh…" Nash could only sigh lengthily—Frank had no idea what he was saying at all!

The stars were sparse that night.

Frank was crossing his legs as he lay in bed, reading a book.

Soon, he narrowed his eyes when he heard someone tiptoeing along the second floor hallway.

He put the book away at lightspeed and pretended to sleep, all while praying, "Stay away, stay away, stay away."

Naturally, it was pointless—his door was unlocked with the right key as a figure sneaked up to his bed.

Kat breathed a puff of air into Frank's ear.

Frank's brow twitched, but he kept pretending to be asleep, unbudging.

"Eh?" Kat appeared surprised.

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 853-"Danger's not the question. It's…uh…"

Nash sighed, unable to continue.

"Don't you get sick of doing the same thing over and over again?!" Kat snapped impatiently right then.

"I just want to go out, and there's a martial elite in Mr. Lawrence escorting me.

What's going to happen? Do you really want me to go friendless?!"

"Of course not. I just want you to make friends with normal—"

"The way I see it, you're the freak here!" Kat bellowed at Nash before storming off.

Nash sighed again. "Oh, that child…"

Frank nodded at him. "Don't worry, Nash. She'll be fine as long as I'm around."

Nash stared at him in turn—Frank was exactly what he was worried about.

However, he could not say it.

Sighing, he handed Frank a small box and left without a word, his back slumped.

Frank was left starting in confusion as he left, and he stiffened when he took a closer look at the box.

"Nash."

He called out, ready to explain himself when he realized what was going on, Kat had returned and started dragging him out by the arm. "Let's go already! Why are you worried about that fossil!"

"There's been a misunderstanding—"

"You can deal with that when you're back!" Kat snapped, not accepting explanations as she kept dragging him away.

Soon, they arrived at a basement bar in West Morhen.

A group of Kat's friends already reserved a booth seat before Kat and Frank reached the bar, and a girl came up to greet Kat after she called her.

"Over here, Kat!" The girl had wavy black hair and a mild smile, with two adorable dimples on his cheeks.

Kat smiled as she hurried over, and they hugged and giggled before Kat turned to Frank. "Ahem—Mr. Lawrence, this is Lily York. She's my best friend and the lead singer of our band, The Spades!"

Frank nodded, seeing that Kat was quite serious about it. "Hello.

"Lily, this is my mentor, Frank Lawrence! You can just call him Mr. Lawrence."

"Oh hello, Mr. Lawrence. Nice to meet you." Lily nodded politely, already showing that she was more well behaved than Kat.

"Lily, what's taking you so long?" A youth in a suit came just then, his face falling and turning hostile as soon as he saw Frank.

Naturally, it was none other than Soren Lionheart himself.

"Oh, Soren," Lily said. "Kat was just introducing her mentor to me. This is Mr.

Lawrence—"

"Save it." Soren raised a hand, stopping her impatiently. "I know."

While Lily stared at them in confusion, Soren wheeled on Kat, frowning as he demanded jealously, "Why did you bring him here?"

Kat frowned in turn, not caring for his jealous tone.

While she somewhat had a good impression of and even admired Soren, she became repulsed after the other girls told her about what had happened just before Hux Darman slapped Soren in the face.

And Soren certainly did not hold a candle to Frank!

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 852-Kat appeared surprised but soon poked a finger on Frank's cheek, breathing softly, "Master Lawrence?"

Frank kept pretending to sleep.

"You're pretending to be asleep, aren't you?" Kat snapped impatiently as she stood by his bed.

Frank still did not move.

"Heh. In that case, this ain't my fault…"

She quietly took off her shoes, dangling it in front of Frank's nose.

Frank's brow wrinkled right then, and he sat up and snapped in annoyance, "That's enough!"

He saw beneath the moonlight that Kat had once again caked her cheeks with makeup and put on that white wig as well.

"You're a girl," Frank growled irritatedly. "Why do you have to keep sneaking into my room like we're actually up to something? What if your father sees us? What would he think of me?!"

"Hehe… I knew you were faking it," Kat giggled mischievously, before saying mysteriously, "I have a favor to ask, okay?"

"You've been asking for plenty of favors, don't you think?" Frank snorted, laying back down in bed while waving her off impatiently as if chasing off a housefly.

"Come on, be nice!" Kat groaned. "A pretty girl like me is asking. Shouldn't a man like you. Y'know?"

"A girl?" Frank chuckled coolly. "Does that grant you special privileges? The way I see it, everyone is created equal."

"Oh, could you stop being so stubborn?" Kat huffed and grabbed Frank by the arm, tugging as hard as she could. "Just help me out one last time! It's the last time, I promise!"

"Fine. What is it?" Frank asked, sitting up as she was really a pain.

"Hehe. Sneak me out of here." Kat winked and smiled, sticking out her tongue.

"My dad will definitely stop me from going out this late, but that won't be the case if you side with me. And I promise this will be the last time I ask for a favor.

I won't ever bother you after this, so pretty please!"

Frank sighed—the kid was really an enigma.

Getting out of bed, he growled. "You said it yourself. It's the last time."

"Yes! The last!" Kat nodded repeatedly.

However, even as they stepped outside, they found Nash standing in the middle of the hallway even before they could come up with an excuse to sneak out.

"Where are you going this time, Kat?" Nash sighed, feeling tired and pained.

"Oh, I'm not planning to go out. Mr. Lawrence is, and I'm just tagging along."

Frank was speechless.

Meeting Nash's gaze, he braced himself and said, "I have an errand."

His words left Nash stumped, since he had no excuse to stop Frank.

Turning back to Kat, he asked, "Why are you going with Mr. Lawrence? It's the middle of the night. It's very dangerous!"

Kat scowled in annoyance. "Well, I have Master Lawrence with me, and I just need a breath of fresh air. Don't bother."

"Mr. Lawrence…"

"Don't worry." Frank nodded at Nash. "It's just a business discussion. Nothing too dangerous."

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 854-Not only was Soren a liar, but he was also unreasonable, jealous, and a braggart.

The man was simply incorrigible, and Kat wondered why she had not noticed that before.

Composing herself, Kat stood akimbo as she glared at Soren. "I don't remember inviting you."

"Lily did," Soren retorted, even more hostile toward Frank since he could notice Kat treating him differently.

Lily quickly tried to calm things down. "Alright—we still have to get a show on the road here. It's our turn soon, Kat… Are you ready?"

"Hmph. For sure," Kat clapped a hand on her chest and leveled a smug look at Frank, like a child keen to show off.

Frank sighed tiredly. "In that case, I won't impose. I'll come back to take you home when you're done."

"No!" Kat scowled right then. "This is why I had you come along. You're watching us on stage, and you're going to cheer for me!"

"Come on, Kat," Soren chimed in, shooting Frank a look. "Don't get pushy when he's already refused you. Who knows, he might hate your music."

Kat glowered at Soren's clear provocation. "No one would think you mute just because you don't speak."

"What."

Soren almost snapped at Kat's harshness, but he took a deep breath and chuckled coolly. "Fine. Do whatever you want."

With that, he returned to the booth seating without looking back.

"What's wrong, Kat?" Lily asked, puzzled—Kat used to admire Soren, so why the dramatic change in attitude?

"Things happen," Kat replied grumpily while staring at Frank. "He's just not my type."

"Oh." Lily glanced between Kat and Frank thoughtfully.

"Anyway, you're going to take a seat like a good boy." Kat scowled at Frank.

"That's why I brought you here. Do you understand?"

"Nope." Frank shook his head.

"Hey!" Kat almost exploded, but she took a deep breath and quickly put on her sweetest smile. "Pretty please, Master Lawrence? This is the last time. Okay?"

Frank's expression darkened. "You said that before we came. How many last times does this make?

Beside them, Lily was flabbergasted.

Kat had never made a face like that to any other man—she certainly saw Kat in a new light now!

And among all the students from the middle schools in South Morhen, Kat was unanimously chosen as the most beautiful!

At that very moment, Lily became dead sure that there was a story here!

And seeing Frank frown unhappily, Lily cleared her throat and smiled. "Allow me."

Stepping in front of Kat, she said, "Apologies, Mr. Lawrence, but Kat, myself, and three other friends have formed a band called The Spades. We've been hitting different bars, putting on live shows to earn some money on the side."

"Uh-huh." Kat nodded repeatedly.

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 856-Frank frowned but did not argue with Mandy, and instead reached for the jug of water, pouring himself a glass.

Mandy snorted. "Can't even afford to buy himself a drink, and trying to freeload off Soren. Despicable." Frank used the dim light and deafening beats to pretend not to hear Mandy, not even looking her way. It took a while until Dragondawn finished, and everyone in the bar including Tilda applauded.

She turned toward Frank, her cheeks flushed as she smiled and asked, "What do you think? Don't you think they're just so cool?"

"I don't know much about music," Frank admitted. "But I thought they were a little noisy."

"Hah! You really are a bumpkin." Mandy promptly jumped in to mock him. "You can't even understand new age rock. Honestly, what are you doing here?"

At that point, Frank realized that Mandy was on Soren's side.

She could see that Soren hated Frank and therefore repeatedly insulted Frank to curry Soren's favor.

Her hard work clearly paid off too, as Soren smiled faintly and shrugged. "Don't say that, Mandy. The arts are just too advanced for backwater folks—it's normal if they don't understand it."

He was clearly referring to Frank, but Frank was not upset at all.

Frank had no cause to get petty with students, and they could say whatever they wanted to as long as it pleased them.

Naturally, Soren was grimacing when he saw that Frank was unfazed, realizing immediately that Frank was completely ignoring him as if he were just an angry ant.

No matter how an ant flailed around, insulted, or harassed an elephant, the elephant would not even bother to look its way.

It only left Soren exponentially humiliated.

He just happened to follow Frank's gaze just then and realized Frank was staring at a man in the front row.

Narrowing his eyes, Soren soon recognized the man—he was Willy Sorano, Emilio Sorano's second son. Frank was frowning in turn. "Did Willy's company invite The Spades to put on a live show for them?" He knew Willy's style all too well—the casting couch was inevitable for Kat and the others if they joined Willy's company.

Considering that even a nation's top actress like Noel York was not spared and was coerced by the Soranos in every way, mere students like Kat and the others would not stand a chance!

Frank felt stung when he remembered Lily's naive smile, and he was suddenly restless.

And through sheer coincidence, it was The Spades' turn to take the stage.

"Hehe." Kat was even grinning smugly at Frank.

He now saw why she had dressed up like that before leaving home—she was the bassist, handily plucking the strings to a low hum.

Lily was holding a guitar, standing at the forefront since she was the lead singer.

There was another guitarist, along with a drummer and the keyboardist.

They matched each other perfectly in turn and could communicate with just a glance.

They started tuning for a moment, and soon, Lily cleared her throat before she began to sing.

Her voice was strong and permeating, and the bar quickly turned quiet as everyone listened.

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 855-Lily smiled again, flashing her dimples. "As we kept putting on shows and got more popular, an entertainment company made us an offer—we'll be putting on a show for them. They'll hire us if our performance meets their standard, and we'll debut as pros. That's why Kat brought you here, hoping that you'd cheer for us."

"Of course," she then added with a pained smile, "if you're not interested in band music, we won't force you to anything… Just stay here and wait until Kat is done."

Frank turned to Kat in surprise after hearing what Lily had to say.

Nash was clearly not rich, but Kat would not have wanted money with the Turnbulls supporting them— if anything, playing with the band must be her way to support her friends.

"So that's why you've been sneaking out late at night." Frank sighed in realization Since Lily had put it that way, he would be unreasonable if he was still dismissive.

As he nodded to show he would stay, Kat clapped him excitedly on the shoulder.

"Haha! Keep your eyes wide as you watch now, Master Lawrence!"

Frank smiled at her. "I don't know much about music, but. do your best."

"Yep!" Kat was jubilant, while Lily hid a smile as she watched.

• "Huh? What is he doing here?!"

Mandy Doncic, who was already at the booth seating, scowled as soon as she saw Frank come over.

Springing to her feet, she snapped bluntly, "Soren reserved this booth seat.

There's no place for you!"

Frank paused and looked around, but the other seats in the entire bar were taken, and he could not sit elsewhere.

The other girls, however, were far more welcoming than Mandy.

"Oh, why are you so petty, Mandy?"

"Mr. Lawrence saved us before!"

"Exactly. Soren wouldn't be so stingy, right?"

Tilda, one of the girls who warmed up to Frank before, smiled and patted the seat beside herself. "There's a free spot here. Come sit here, handsome."

Though it was the outermost seat, Frank nodded and did not refuse. "Thanks.

Soren, sitting in the center, scowled and snorted, but he was otherwise silent.

Frank could see that Soren was hostile to him. However, he did not care about the students anyway and was even less interested in Soren.

He was not bothered by Soren's jealousy either and would keep his distance unless provoked.

"Hmph. Talk about brazen." Mandy folded her arms before chest, utterly annoyed as she sat down.

"Let's give a warm welcome to the next band, Dragondawn! They'll rock your world!"

The lights overhead flashed as a group of uniquely dressed youths strode upstage and started playing.

Soren and the others were soon nodding along, engrossed.

Frank, however, thought they were noisy and ignored them as he reached for a bottle of red wine.

That did not escape Mandy's notice, and she promptly snatched it out of his grasp. "Soren paid for that! Buy your own drinks!"

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 857-Frank was actually surprised—in the beginning, Lily's tone was mundane, but the accompaniment seemed to lift her voice, allowing her song to engulf the person.

Her performance left the basement bar silent, too. Men and women were all left staring at the girl who was dressed modestly, whose voice would not lose to top singers.

Even someone as oblivious to music as Frank knew that she sang well.

Then, as Kat joined in the chorus, their voices seemed to resound across the bar, leaving the crowd silent and enthralled.

Tilda, the girl beside Frank, was sighing.

Frank nodded without knowing it.

On the other hand, Mandy was glaring jealously at the girls. - When Lily eventually finished the last song, the crowd spaced out for a beat before applauding thunderously.

Even Willy was on his feet at the front row, praising endlessly, "Impressive! The Spades are really as talented as they're said to be!"

"Encore! Encore!" the guests around the bar chanted, providing a much more enthusiastic reception than the one the Dragondawn received.

Lily smiled and bowed. "Well, what shall we sing next? Any suggestions?"

"I'll pay you five grand for a request!" A pudgy man rose to his feet, his arms still around a pretty lady as he called out heartily, "My Heart Will Go On!"

"Booo…"

Everyone appeared repulsed by the suggestion—talk about old-fashioned!

Eder, the bar owner strode forward just then and leveled an earnest look at Lily.

"Come on, girls. The man is paying five grand for a request, and we're splitting it fifty-fifty."

"Sure." Lily nodded, and the rest of The Spades were about to start playing when someone else stood up.

"Five grand for a request? And such an old song?! I'll pay you ten grand, ladies —my request is Don't Stop Me Now!'" "What?!" The pudgy man earlier frowned at the younger man who spoke. "Shit, your taste is older than mine!"

Everyone jeered again too.

"So what? It's what I like!" The younger man crossed his legs smugly.

"Well, alright then…" Lily said, a little exasperated.

What was the problem with the guests today? Sure, it was nice to have paid requests, but each of their requests were more old-fashioned than the next!

But there was no helping it since the customers were alright, and she could only sing it with her band.

That was when Soren sprang up and shouted, "Wait!"

Then, as everyone in the bar looked on, he chuckled and said, "Queen, in this day and age? Aren't you people embarrassed? My request is just for a love ballad, and I'll tip a hundred grand."

"What?!"

"A hundred grand?!"

Soren's extravagant request certainly caught everyone's attention, which stroked his vanity instantly.

However, Kat was frowning on stage. "I don't want to sing a love ballad, Lily."

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 858-Kat could clearly feel that Soren was after her with that request for a love ballad, and it really irked her.

Eder, the bar owner, scowled right then. "What, are you refusing a customer's request? Are you trying to ruin my bar's reputation?!"

"No, no, of course not." Lily quickly smiled apologetically. "We'll sing."

As she spoke, she turned to Kat with a pleading look. "Please…"

Kat frowned in annoyance but sighed. "Fine. Whatever."

"Wait!" the pudgy man from earlier bellowed as he stood up. "Two hundred grand for My Heart Will Go On!"

"Two hundred grand?!" Everyone in the bar gasped.

That amount of money for a single request was just ridiculous!

"Hah!" The pudgy man looked around smugly, still holding on to his pretty companion. "Who else wants to make a bid?"

"Five hundred grand," Soren stood up again as he raised, shooting the pudgy man a look of disdain.

"Five hundred grand? Shit, the guy's crazy," the pudgy man grumbled as he sat down in shock.

While it was utterly crazy that anyone would make a single song request by paying 500 grand, no one challenged Soren just then.

"A love ballad it is. I'll just pretend I'm singing to Master Lawrence," Kat grumbled under her breath on stage.

Lily heard it and smiled exasperatedly.

"Wait."

They were just starting when Willy finally spoke from the front row, beckoning nonchalantly, "My request is I Wanna Be Your Slave."

"Huh.?"

"What?!"

Willy's song request left everyone in the bar speechless.

However, he was sneering as he held up a finger, silencing the crowd as he said, "My tip will be one million."

"Shit, who's the man throwing in a mil?!"

"A million bucks for one song? Am I hearing him right?"

"You heard right, and I Wanna Be Your Slave at that… Heh."

"Having a girl band sing it too—that's just sick."

As the crowd below the stage started to whisper among themselves, Kat strode past Lily on stage.

Straightforward as ever, she glared at the grinning Willy as she snapped, "I Wanna Be Your Slave?! I don't know a single word! Go to some seedy joint if you like that song so much!"

"Is that how you speak to the guests?!"

Eder, the bar owner, strode out and bellowed at Kat right in the face. "He's rewarding you with a million dollars! You'd better think about it—a million! You'd be getting over a hundred grand each even if you have to split it! So what if the lyrics are a little cheeky? It's no skin off your back—or are you so keen to see my business fall apart?!"

Eder's threat left The Spades trading glances awkwardly.

"I-I don't know the song." Lily stepped forward with a chagrined smile. "Would you mind naming another song, sir?"

She could already see that the young man was the person in charge of the media company coming to assess them and refrained from being too rude.

"You don't know the song? Well, I can teach you."

Willy did not seem upset at all, even grinning as he beckoned to her. "Come here. Let's have a drink together before I give you my. instruction. Once I'm done, you'll sing amazingly."

The Spades were left scowling—they certainly understood what Willy was getting at.

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 859 -Tilda, the girl sitting beside Frank, was anxious too.

She turned to Soren, pleading, "Can't you do something, Soren?! We have to help Kat!"

However, Soren could only scratch his head awkwardly.

He had followed Frank's gaze and realized the man in the front row was Emilio Sorano's second son, Willy Sorano.

They were one of the Four Families of Morhen, and Soren certainly could not afford to mess with them.

While he was a Lionheart, he was no more than a distant relative—a far cry from Willy, who was from a direct lineage.

Moreover, he had already spent all his pocket money of 500 grand and no more.

As such, Soren pursed his lips and explained under his breath, "Don't you see?

That's Willy Sorano! If he gets upset…"

He trailed off, but the others understood—Soren could not afford to mess with Willy.

"Are we just going to let him humiliate Kat and the other girls?!" Tilda groaned, on the verge of tears.

She and The Spades were good friends, and she was frustrated to see them placed in such an awkward situation.

"Are you crazy?!"

Mandy Doncic, who was sitting beside Soren, snapped at Tilda, "That's Willy Sorano, the second-in-line to the Sorano family! Are you trying to get Soren killed, upsetting him?! Know your place!"

"Exactly," Soren sighed. "I can't afford to mess with all the influence at his disposal."

Soren was certainly honest for once, since backing off against the Soranos' heir was nothing too embarrassing.

Even across all of Morhen, no more than a handful of his peers would dare to challenge Willy—even if Soren liked Kat, he was not suicidal enough to die for her.

At the same time, Willy gloated, "Come on, girls—each of you have a drink, and I'll teach you how to sing it. And then you can all join Sorano Media, on your way to become the most popular of Draconia. How about that?"

His gleeful look left the Spades troubled, but Kat strode forward, staring sternly at the others and snapped, "Don't drink! Have you forgotten why we put together this band in the first place? We should just disband, and I definitely can't take this insult!"

With those words, she slammed her bass on the floor.

"Oh, so you're going to insult me? I'm Willy Sorano!" Willy glowered.

The other guests around him were all shocked.

"What?! That's the second heir of the Soranos?!"

"Shit! Why would he show up at a modest bar like this?!"

"Well, he's here either way. I guess the girls are just unlucky!"

The girls on stage appeared conflicted as the other bar guests leveled mixed looks at them.

"Are you crazy?" Eder was sweating bullets in frustration. "That's Mr. Sorano asking! His family is one of the Four Families of Morhen! What would you have to worry about if you get on his good side? Do you still have to play at some bar like you do now? You'd become the best band in Draconia!"

The girls were actually swayed a little by Eder's reasoning.

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 860-Naturally, most of The Spades were wary of the Soranos' influence.

Most of their families were modest—even poor—and basically helpless against the Soranos, They had no choice but to give in to a smugly grinning Willy.

"Kat…" Rosa, the keyboardist, leveled an awkward look at Kat.

"What…" Kat was shocked as she realized that her band members were staring at her unhappily.

"Not everyone leads a comfortable life like you."

"Yeah. We'd all like to make a living for our family and realize our dreams."

Kat was silent when she saw the guilty looks on their faces, and she eventually smiled and shook her head. "Heh… Then I'll respect your decision."

She started to leave, only for a glowering Eder to catch her. "Where do you think you're going?"

"The band's breaking up, and I'm going home," Kat snapped icily.

Eder snorted right then. "Did you think you can do whatever you want in my bar and leave as you like?! Either please Mr. Sorano right now, or none of you are leaving in one piece!"

Several burly goons appeared backstage at Eder's words, sending the girls' hearts skipping a beat.

"Hahaha! I like her. I especially prefer feisty, stubborn ones—bring her over, she can have a drink with me." Willy smiled evilly below the stage, and everyone could see that his intentions were sinister.

"K-Keep dreaming!" Kat snorted and strode down the stage anyway Two burly goons strode up at her right then, and she assumed a fighting pose.

"Buzz off!" she cried and unleashed the Skyrush Jab she learned from Frank.

"Hah, some scrawny kid like you is—Oof!"

Everyone was left staring at shock as Kat, whose height only reached the goon's chest, leapt up and punched him in the chest. And somehow, her tiny wrist and miniscule knuckle sent the giant flying, even though he must weigh over 200 pounds!

Bang!

The goon grunted in dull pain as he crashed into furniture, drawing a chorus of screams.

Willy and Eder were stunned as they stared at Kat, with Willy frowning. "What?

She's a martial artist?!"

Even Kat was stunned, staring at her knuckle in disbelief.

She had merely used the technique she practiced through sheer instinct and punched with all her strength.

And she was certainly surprised how strong it turned out to be!

Before she could be pleased, however, Eder came to his senses and ordered over a dozen more burly goons to encircle Kat.

Even if Kat managed to catch the other goon off guard, she absolutely had no chance against this many.

"Kat!" Lily became flustered on stage and quickly pleaded to Eder, "Please, sir!

Just give us a chance— we will learn to sing right now!"
