Ch. 961..970

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 961-Frank soon arrived at the back and stepped inside a detached house to meet the patient from an illustrious family.

He soon saw that the patient-who was sipping tea leisurely at the guest roomwas a familiar face.

"It's really been a while, Mr. Lawrence." Gus Zeller nodded in greeting.

The man was with Willy Sorano when they attacked the Southstream Lanes, and he was now stroking his beard while smiling at Frank. "I'm surprised you've come all this way to Morhen. May I ask what the purpose of your trip is?"

Though his attitude was a stark contrast to when they first met, Frank shook his head. "Just a little personal errand."

Then, turning toward Abel, Frank asked quietly, "Could this be the patient you mentioned?

"Yes." Abel nodded and smiled, seeing that they were already acquainted." I guess this is what they call fate. ” Frank said nothing-he actually had a bad impression of Gus since he was a member of the Sorano family.

Both the sons of the Soranos' leader, be it Hubert Sorano or Willy Sorano, were endlessly pompous and always abusing their statuses as his heirs.

To be frank, Frank did not want to help Gus either.

Seeing that Frank was quiet, Abel presumed that he was hesitant because of Gus' condition and promptly explained, "Mr. Lawrence, Mr. Zeller said that he sustained this condition three years ago at South Sea. It's now relapsing, causing a buildup of excess vigor on his chest and causing a lot of pain.

"Moreover, if your treatment is successful, Mr. Zeller will be paying you a commission, in addition to Loggins Apothecary's standard payment for consultation." "Really?" Frank was surprised… Not about payment being made by either parties, but the reason Gus was taken ill.

Three years ago, at South Sea…

Still, Frank stayed impassive despite his surprise and nodded.

"In that case, I'll try my best," he said, walking toward Gus while waving Abel off.

"Leave US." "Okay." Abel quickly bowed his head and left in a beat.

Though it was his own turf, he somehow was not upset that he was chased out.

When he stepped out and saw his grandson, he was smiling at Jim. "So?

That woman and her daughter returned, didn't they?" "How'd you know?" Jim did a double take and sighed. "I can't even begin to understand Mr. Lawrence's wisdom in medicine-it's too much for me, and it's clear I'm the ignorant one. I finally understand why you hold him in such high esteem, Grandpa." "Oh, as long as you get it." Abel chuckled, clapping him on the shoulder as he saw that his grandson was won over.

He had Jim stay with Frank just so that he could see Frank's methods for himself, otherwise, whatever he said would not ever convince Jim of the true might of Draconian traditional medicine.

Meanwhile, inside the guest room, Gus glanced at Frank and chuckled." Why so serious? Have a seat." 'Til stand," Frank said quietly, shaking his head. "I have some questions for you that concern your condition. Please do not lie.”

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 962-Gus laughed. "Haha. I definitely wouldn't lie to you, Mr. Lawrence."

Suddenly, Frank found Gus' attitude toward him weird. After all, Gus should be on the Soranos' side and therefore hostile toward Frank. After all, half the reason Zam Sorano was killed was because of Frank.

And yet, Gus was not showing any enmity toward Frank now-if anything, he was exceedingly polite, even kind, as if he were just an ordinary younger man.

"How did you sustain your injury, Mr. Zeller?" he asked nonetheless.

Gus smiled. He could tell that Frank's question was clearly loaded and simply admitted, "I was ambushed one night, leaving my organs and meridian nexus in pieces. Thankfully, someone saved me from the ruins." "Someone saved you?"

Frank repeated softly.

"Yes." Gus' gaze turned distant in recollection. "It was a young girl… a kind one.

She fed me a golden pill that saved my life, even helping me improve to Ascendant rank."

Pausing, he chuckled. "While my life and cultivation was saved, I was struck by Hundred Bane Sect's Every Flavor Palm. Whenever I ingest a food with flavor, my organs will burn… It's infuriating." "I see." Frank nodded at Gus' story.

It was not a particularly serious condition, and he could easily nullify the lingering effects of that technique. All Gus had to do was to take an Ichor Pill with the antidote, and his condition would be rotted out in days.

But it just so happened that his antidotes were used up.

Still, before Frank could mention that, Gus was smiling. "I have a question of my own, Mr. Lawrence. If I'm not mistaken, you'd be interested in asking why I bailed you out when Willy brought US to Laneville, wouldn't you?" "Yeah." Frank nodded solemnly, candid since Gus was being frank.

"I owe my life to Mystic Sky Sect," Gus said quietly and sighed after a moment of silence while leveling a troubled look at Frank. "Like a lot of other families and factions, the Soranos sent me to South Sea and partook in the siege of Mystic Sky Sect. I believed what I was doing to be just.

"However, I found a treasure as I helped pillage the archives and was backstabbed. I was at the mercy of fate, but a girl-an apprentice of Mystic Sky Sect-saved me."

Chuckling ironically and shaking his head, Gus explained, "At that moment, I understood that I had been lied to. Mystic Sky Sect and their apprentices were no evildoers, but individuals of valor and compassion. Heck, when I asked why she'd save me, she told me that I looked pitiful and didn't want to see me die that tragically. How naive she was."

Snickering, he continued, "After that, I escorted her out of the ruins of Mystic Sky Sect to one of the fishing villages in the South Sea. I would’ve liked her to stay there, but that was when she found her younger sister's body… It was simply ironic."

Gus sighed, shaking his head again. "The light in her eyes faded right then, and she became silent. I could see that the culprit was Zac Turnbull and told her that, and she gave me one last look before rejecting my offer to return to Morhen. We parted ways right then, and the last I heard, she fled Draconian borders to Talnam. We've never met since."

A look of profound guilt showed in Gus' eyes.

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 963-Ì see."

Frank finally understood how Ciaran survived the siege of Mystic Sky Sect thanks to Gus' tale-Gus himself protected her.

But in the end, Ciaran fled abroad and learned the insect hex techniques of Talnam, which now appeared to be caused by trauma.

It left him hesitant too-what if Gus found out that the infamous South Sea Crow was that kind girl who saved his life? What would he think?

"Like I said, I owe Mystic Sky Sect my life." Gus sighed. "It’s a debt I can never pay."

Frank waited for a moment before speaking quietly, "It seems that you have seen through me. I must also thank you for not telling anyone, since no one in Morhen seems aware."

Gus smiled and raised a palm. "It's really nothing."

Frank's gaze turned milder too. "Though we stand apart, I'll treat you to escorting my fellow apprentice to safety. But if we have to fight again… Don't expect me to hold back."

Gus chuckled bitterly in turn. "You're really merciless, Mr. Lawrence."

Frank shrugged. "Anyway, I'll be refining a set of pills, and I'll have it delivered to your address. Take it punctually, and you'll make a full recovery in days."

Gus stood and bowed his head. "In that case, thank you very much, Mr.

Lawrence." "Farewell," Frank said and turned to leave.

He then ran into Abel and his grandson Jim. "Mr. Lawrence? How did it go …?"

"Yeah, it's done. There's nothing to worry about." "Oh. Thank you, Mr.

Lawrence!" Abel exclaimed.

"Yeah, we owe you now," Jim agreed.

Their relieved reactions left Frank puzzled. "Why are you thanking me? It's Gus Zeller I'm helping." "Oh…" Abel chuckled awkwardly. "It's a long story… but the head of the Sorano family issued an ultimatum, threatening to tear down our signboard if Gus' condition remains." "The signboard?" Frank then remembered the shiny golden signboard of Loggins Apothecary.

Jim then came up with an idea. "Why don't you enlist as one our apothecary’s consultants? You just have to put in your name without actually doing anything, and we’ll pay you a monthly fee. Naturally, you can drop if you're feeling bored, but no one will force you. I've already chased away Ferdy Zeller anyway, so you can have his place."

Abel promptly joined in with his grandson. "That's right! It's our honor if you're willing to be listed!"

Seeing that both men were really enthusiastic, Frank rubbed his chin and nodded. "I guess I can take you up on the offer… But on one condition: I am in need of matured natural wonders, so could you gather them for me? It's fine even if it's immature.” Jim and Abel traded glances at Frank's words.

Their reaction left Frank thinking they could not do it, so he shook his head.

"If you can't, I guess-"

"Just a moment." Abel stopped Frank, smiling confidently.

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 964-Abel stopped Frank, smiling confidently. "This is Morhen, Mr. Lawrence, and I've been working here in Morhen for decades. I can't promise you that I can get you anything amazing, but decades and even centuries old natural wonders are not a problem at all. Just leave it to me!"

If anything, Abel and Jim were hesitant because Frank's request was too simple, leaving them at a loss. After all, they were ready for Frank to demand something outrageous.

"Good." Frank nodded, agreeing to the offer and feeling assured.

As he left, Abel watched him and sighed in relief, smiling. "He's as noble as he is generous…" "Yeah." Jim nodded but soon turned worriedly toward his grandfather with a frown. "What about the Soranos, Gramps?"

Abel laughed exasperatedly. "Don't think I can't see through your schemes, brat.

That's why you wanted Mr. Lawrence to list his name with US, didn't you?"

Turning and giving Jim a solemn look, he said, "I know. The Soranos are pulling all stops to get involved in the pharmaceutical business, but they are sticking to modern medicine, which means they're our rivals." "Yeah." Jim nodded.

In fact, the head of the Sorano family basically threw the conundrum that was Gus at them exactly for that reason. If they failed to help Gus, the Soranos had an excuse to harass them, demonstrating to the public that Draconia traditional medicine did not work while endorsing modern medicine.

And having been getting involved in showbiz for years, the Soranos were immaculate when it came to publicity.

If Frank did not come, they would have fallen victim to the Soranos' elaborate scheme.

Shaking his head in exasperation, Abel sighed. "That said, we must still be respectful toward Mr. Lawrence from now on. The renaissance of Draconian traditional medicine depends on him." "Yes, Grandpa." Jim nodded determinedly.

Frank returned to Nash's cottage, but only Nash was present-neither Helen nor Kat were in sight.

Frank became worried when he learned that both women went out together, though he decided to go to them after he was done with work.

He headed to his room and locked the door, mixing the herbs he brought and refining it.

Eventually, he had ten irregular sized black pills sitting on his palm. He put them in a bottle and called Nash, passing him the antidote pills, and the Ichor Pill and asking him to deliver them to Gus at Sorano Estate.

After all, Frank really did not want to go-Willy Sorano would definitely try to give him a hard time if they met, and Frank really did not want to catch the heat.

And down-to-earth as ever, Nash agreed to Frank's request solemnly and hurried to Sorano Estate in his white sedan.

On the other hand, Frank thought about it but eventually decided to go looking for Helen and Kat.

For some reason, Kat was always hostile toward Helen, and she must be planning something bad and Frank could never trust her attitude.

To no surprise, when Frank found Helen at the basement bar nearby, he saw the exasperated look on her face as she sat with a group of students.

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 965-Frank recognized that some of the boys around Helen were Soren's lapdogs, and most of them were studying Helen's face and figure lecherously.

Even sitting in the distance, Mandy Doncic was folding her arms before her chest, shooting a sideways glare of displeasure at Helen.

After all, Soren was sitting right beside her, but his eyes were glued to Helen's long legs, her black thigh highs seemingly stealing their soul.

Frank strode up to them and bellowed coldly at the boys around Helen," Get out!" "Shit, who the hell are you telling US to leave?!" "Don't you know that our friend Soren just booked the whole place for US?!" "What the-eh?”

The boys started snapping but soon saw Frank's face-it was the man whom Hux Darman was fawning over, and he could hold himself in a fight!

Frank took Helen's hand, frowning as he sat down beside her. "What the hell was that?" "They're just Kat's classmates." Helen smiled feebly, seeing the rage on his face. "You're being paranoid." "What…" Frank could not say anything just then.

However, Helen's beauty made her the center of attention anywhere she went.

Combined with her mannerisms as a company's executive, the boys naturally saw her as some rich woman.

Frank certainly understood how attractive a prospect she was to those youthful boys.

"Just calm down-l'm here to get along better with Kat," Helen said quietly, leaning against him to assure him as she could see that he was really angry.

There was a glimmer of glee in her eyes too. After all, no girl would hate the one they loved getting jealous over her.

"Hmph… Kat, was it?" Frank knew it was all Kat's fault and looked around.

However, he had yet to find them when a gang of thugs approached their table.

One of them chuckled, "Yo, that's some pretty cheeks on your gal, bro." "What's it to you?!" Frank glared at them, impatience showing on his face right then.

"That's some attitude you have, kid."

The gang's leader, a thug with an overjet named Brody, sneered. "Do you know where you are?! This is Blackfive's turf, y'know? Blackfive of South Morhen! And Blackfive's son is our boss!"

Pausing, he took Frank's silence for cowardice and turned to share a lecherous smile with his boys. "It's been a while since we've seen a chick that hot. Why don't you lend her to US for a bit? Don’t worry-well return her and even pay you for it. How about that?"

Frank's expression turned visibly cold, and he turned toward Helen in annoyance. "That's why I told you to stay put-Morhen is much messier than Riverton is. What would you do if you ran into these thugs alone, and I wasn't around, hmm?"

Helen felt guilty at his unhappy question and straightened his collar while she pouted. "Fine, I get it. I'll always listen from now on, okay?"

It was a first that the strong and independent Helen was being such a girl, and Frank's rising indignation vaporized right then.

"Fine, whatever." He sighed exasperatedly. "We're leaving once we're done here."

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 966-"Okay." Helen nodded tamely.

"Hey, are you deaf, kid? Didn’t you hear me?" Brody strode up, shoving Frank right then.

"It's okay, boss. Must be deaf and blind." One of his goons hurried forward to keep the peace.

"S-Shut up!" Brody slapped him across the face, snapping angrily, "I'm not blind or deaf! You don't have to tell me!"

On the other hand, Frank did not attack right away despite being shoved, only saying coolly, "Leave before I get angry, or you'll all die here."

His threat left Brody laughing, and he pointed at himself as he snorted. ” Hey, are you really blind? There's so many of us, and you're telling US to leave? You should be leaving right now-but your girlfriend stays!" "Urgh, we had to run into some imbeciles." Frank sighed, clenching his fist." Last chance. Leave now, all of you."

As he slowly looked up, his eyes flashing murderously, several of the thugs were flinching in terror.

One of them said, "Brody, l-l don't think we should mess with him. Why don't we just-’ "Shut up!" Brody snapped angrily. "There's over ten of US, and one of him!

What is he going to do… Eh?"

He was just about to finish when he turned and found a fist coming straight at his face.

Even before Brody realized what was happening, he felt an agony over his face as his body suddenly turned light.

As Brody's goons looked on in shock, he was sent flying, his head crashing on the door hinges and bleeding profusely. Two of his protruding front teeth were knocked out too.

"So? Are you going to get payback for your boss?" Frank asked he strode up, leaving the goons petrified, and they immediately fled, carrying Brody with them.

They were actually the lowest in the hierarchy of gangsters, only ever bullying students or women. A man who showed a little spine like Frank was enough to send them packing.

"Scum." Frank snorted and returned to his seat.

"Let me take a look," Helen said, taking his hand and sighing in relief when she saw no injuries.

"What?" Frank teased. "Is that concern I hear? Where did the ice queen go?"

Helen rolled her eyes, staying silent for a long while before asking, "How many times has it been since you protected me like this?" "I'm not sure." Frank shook his head.

"Countless." Helen mused to herself and eventually nodded, leaning on his shoulder affectionately. "There's no one else we know here, whether it's my mom or Vicky… And I'm not here for business. So may I be frank with you?"

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 967-Helen asked softly, "So may I be frank with you?"

Frank did a double take but soon said quietly, "Yeah."

Tve actually missed you… That's why I wanted to stay. I didn't want to leave you," Helen said and shyly hid her face in his chest.

Kat's male classmates shot him glares of jealousy, but there was nothing they could do-Frank was simply on another level.

Even the car he drove was a rare sight for most of them, and they would have no hope of having a beauty throw herself into their arms.

Soren was especially snorting as he glared at Frank in jealousy, though he soon had an idea.

At the same time, Frank was laughing and teasing Helen. "Tut, tut… How shocking is this? Ms. Helen Lane, CEO of Lane Holdings whom every Rivertonian reveres as an ice queen, saying something like that to a bum like me. Who would ever believe that? I'm so touched… I've truly been blessed…"

Helen flushed up to her neck and thumped his chest with a knuckle.

She was always serious and never good when it came to speaking her mind, but she could obviously tell that Vicky Turnbull's problem would not be so easily resolved. That was why she decided to say it after much consideration, in spite of her embarrassment.

There was something else she did not say too-that she stayed because she wanted to be by his side and face any trouble Frank ran into.

Just then, the front door of the bar was kicked open, and a short, stocky bald man strode in.

"Who the hell bullied my boys?" he barked pompously, holding a black steel club with six goons dressed in black.

They were clearly higher in the pecking order than Brody and his boys- Baldie was even a martial artist.

"T-That's him! He hit me!" Brody pointed at Frank as he cried, his words a little muffled since he was covering his mouth because of his broken front teeth.

"Messing with me, huh? You're dead meat!" He smiled gleefully as he followed Baldie upto Frank.

"What, so it was you?" Baldie sneered murderously at Frank, brandishing his metal club.

The mess was drawing much attention in the bar, and Kat had just happened to step out from backstage with her guitar.

"Master Lawrence is here too? What's going on?" she exclaimed when she saw the thugs surrounding Frank and Helen.

Just as she was about to put aside the guitar and ask, a hand reached out and caught her by the wrist.

"Just look, Kat," Soren said, pointing at Frank and sneering, "That man's obviously a pig, not hesitating to chat up that pretty face as soon as he saw her, even chasing our classmates away." "Soren's right. That bastard is nothing good!" The boys nearby quickly agreed.

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 968-"Soren's right. That bastard is nothing good!" The boys nearby quickly agreed.

"You can see his true nature now, can't you, Kat?" Soren smiled smugly- this was what he wanted-to tarnish Kat's image of Frank while salvaging her impression of him.

However, he simply did not understand that Kat had already seen through him.

Slapping his hand away, she snapped coldly, "What Master Lawrence is is no business of yours. You don't get to badmouth him!" "Kat!" Soren could barely hide his rage and snapped, "I'm just worried about you and don't want you to be tricked, especially by the likes of him!"

As he finished, he turned toward Frank pointedly.

"Oh, sure!" Kat sneered in disdain. "So I should let you trick me instead? It's time you understand what you did—it’s really sickening if anyone had to put it into words. And Master Lawrence was nice enough to not hold it against you, but you had to keep badmouthing him everytime. I'd be blushing if I were you!"

Soren flushed from Kat's usual bluntness, and even Mandy, who sat beside Soren, had enough.

"Kat!" She leapt up, slapping Kat in the face while snapping, "Don't you know how much Soren has done for you? Count your blessings already!"

Lily York saw Kat being struck and hurried down the stage to stand between the two, forcing a smile. "Let's all just calm down. We're all friends "Shut up!" Soren glowered at Kat with bloodshot eyes. "You bitch! You're coming with me now!"

He whipped out his phone and dialed a number.

Five men in black strode into the bar right away and gathered behind Soren.

Soren then barked, "Take her. We're going to the hotel—I’ll have her, whatever it takes!" "Yes, Mr. Lionheart,’ the bodyguards replied as they strode toward Kat.

As they did, Soren was laughing. "Didn't expect this, did you, Kat? My dad recently made a major accomplishment, and the Lionhearts took US back! I'm now a full-fledged Lionheart, and you're an enemy of the Lionhearts if you mess with me! That means death!"

He glanced at Frank just then, snorting and growling through his teeth, "I’ll deal with you soon enough too!"

However, that was when Kat suddenly reared her head, leaping up and punching down a bodyguard over a foot taller than her.

Then, she kicked a bodyguard squarely in the groin. As he collapsed, every man who was watching winced in pain.

"Fuck you, Soren!" Kat spat bloody drool and leapt toward Soren, ready to cripple him with the martial arts Frank taught her.

"What are you spacing out for?! Get her!" Soren cried at his bootlickers, stunned by the power Kat could unleash from her small frame.

He was no martial artist and had no hope of winning!

However, the bootlickers were hesitant. "Soren, she's a girl…"

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 969-Soren bellowed in rage, "Fucking take her! Anyone who does gets fifty grand!"

"Fifty grand?!"

The bootlickers could not care less about chivalry after Soren shouted his reward, and all of them leapt toward Kat.

"You pricks…Damn it!" Kat cursed, but she was already giving up.

She was immediately at a disadvantage. Not only did she have to deal with the three bodyguards behind him, and her own classmates standing between her and Soren.

She knew the extent of her abilities too-it had just been a few days since she started out as a martial artist, and she had barely enough vigor to beat all these boys.

Instead, she felt the stinging sensation on her cheek and turned to lunge at Mandy-she will get some payback, even if she could not reach Soren for now!

"Argh!"

Even as Mandy cried out in panic, Kat floored her with a single slap, leaving her cheek swelling like a bun.

With that done, she stood her ground, she turned toward her best friend Lily, shaking her head exasperatedly to tell her to stay out.

However, Lily was truly her best friend-she did not give up on Kat.

With reasoning not being an option, she grabbed one of Soren's bodyguards and bit him in the arm.

"Argh!" The bodyguard did not expect a shrinking violet like Lily to bite her.

Incensed, he slapped her to the floor.

"Lily!" Kat was even more furious at that and charged toward the bodyguard right then.

She glanced hopefully at Frank as she did, but her hope soon faded.

Frank himself was surrounded by Baldie's thugs, and Helen was behind him.

Not only was Frank busy, but Kat also knew that Frank cared for his ex-wife more than a teenage girl he had just met a week ago.

Naturally, Frank did not miss the look Kat gave him, and he was not about to let Soren and his ilk continue doing whatever they liked.

Looking up, he muttered, "Let's make this quick…" "What?" Baldie did a double take and suddenly felt lightness in his hand.

The black steel bat he was just carrying had somehow teleported into Frank's hand!

"What-’ Before Baldie could say another word, Frank had sent him crashing into a table with a kick.

"Argh!" Women screamed as the bar fight started.

"Shit, did he just kick Baldie?"

The thugs were stunned but soon came to their senses.

"Fuck you!" they bellowed, their weapons poised as they charged toward Frank.

"Frank! Be careful!" Helen cried in panic as a thug's machete scraped past Frank's scalp.

A moment sooner, and they would hit Frank in the head!

"I don't have time for you." Frank's eyes flashed as he broke the thug's arm and sent him flying with a kick.

"Argh!" the thug screamed as he felt his arm snap.

The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 970-"Hmph."

Frank snorted, his feet moving too quickly for the naked eye to follow.

He disappeared from sight as if a phantom, leaving them looking around aimlessly.

"What? Where did he go?" "How did he do that?!"

Frank was already behind them.

Crack.

Pure vigor shot out of his fingers, leaving the thugs floored and screaming as their nerves and tendons were blocked, and they would not be standing up for over two weeks.

Only Brody was left, and he was on his knees in fear.

Frank wasted no time with him and turned toward Kat, who was already subdued and pressed against the floor by one of the bodyguards. Her cheeks were covered in bloodstains, but she kept fighting back without yielding.

However, her retaliation was limp and tickled the bodyguard at best.

"You're asking for it!" Frank bellowed and charged toward the bodyguard like a storm.

Even before he could look up in shock, Frank punched him, sending him rolling over the floor, his neck snapping with an audible crack.

"What…"

Soren knew he was in danger when he saw how quickly Frank dealt with his opponents, and he turned to run.

"A full group of grown men bullying one girl? You wretches!" Frank bellowed just then.

Soren felt an immense force abruptly coming from the front. Unable to hold his ground, he was sent flying backward, crashing heavily on the floor.

"Argh!" he screamed as he felt several of his ribs breaking.

"And you!" Frank’s eyes flashed as he turned around at Soren's bootlickers.

"l-lt's not our fault! It's Soren… He put US up to this!" "Yeah, we're innocent… We didn't even lay a finger on her at all!"

Frank was not about to give them a chance despite their excuses.

While Kat was a headache for him at times, he definitely did not hate her- if anything, he appreciated her.

As such, he was incensed to see her face bleeding.

Rushing toward the boys in an instant, he sneered. "Well, since you don't mind bullying a girl, then you won’t mind me bullying some kids!"

He caught one of the boys who could not run away in time and slapped him twice viciously, leaving him stunned.

"Trying to run?!" Frank chuckled coolly as he looked around at the other fleeing boys and threw the boy he was holding at two of them, knocking them down.

Then, he charged toward another fleeing boy.

"Shit, is he really human?!" The boy kept looking behind him even as he ran, praying that Frank would stay away and spare him…

Regrettably, his prayer did not work.

When he did not see Frank behind him, glee showed on his face as he believed that Frank was not coming after him for a moment.

At the very next instant, he felt himself hitting a wall and falling backward on the floor, hard.
