Sean could not even look at Frank. He retorted, “Shut up! I wouldn’t even care if you’re dead if not for
Helen!”
Gina became even more impressed with Sean right then. “See? Mr. Wesley is so magnanimous, while you’re so petty?”
Sean said just then, “Do you know who that baldie’s boss is? It’s the man who consolidated power in West City after Leo Grayson was killed!”
“Oh, are you talking about Scarface? I heard about him–he’s ruthless,” one of Helen’s employees said just then.
Gina put her hands on her hips in turn. “Don’t bother with them, Mr. Wesley. It’s none of our business who gets killed.”
However, while Frank was wondering who Scarface was, there was a commotion upstairs and a huge crowd soon arrived downstairs.
Helen’s employees were at once stunned that Zuco could call up so many people in an instant, while Helen turned worriedly toward Frank.
Even Gina, who had been yapping endlessly, was totally silent.
Zuco strode up to Frank pompously right then. “Weren’t you really bragging just now, bastard? Why are you so quiet now?”
Sean’s heart could leap out of throat just then–he really did not know how to explain himself, let alone tell Zuco who Vicky really was!
Bracing himself, he moved close to Zuco and said, “Come on, Zuco. Just let this slide!”
However, Zuco
co was smiling. “Don’t worry, Mr. Wesley. My boss is here–not even the gods can stop
this now!”
The crowd suddenly parted just then, and a rotund man almost six feet tall strode out.
He had a gruesome scar on his face, and his menacing presence silenced Sean, leaving him terrified.
‘T–That’s the new kingpin of West City?”
“This is my turf,” the scarred man–real name Chad Hansen–announced just then. “Anyone who lays a finger on my people here will have to pay. So? Who was it?”
He had just risen to the top, and one of his boys was already beaten up–how was he going to assert himself in West City if he did not step up?
That was when Frank said nonchalantly, “It was me.”
Chad’s eyes widened when he saw that it was Frank, even shaking his head repeatedly in disbelief!
Beside him, Zuco was rubbing his palms eagerly. “Let me break his legs, boss. I’ll make him wish he were dead!”
However, Chad was trembling all over and promptly stopped Zuco.
Turning to Chad, Zuco finally realized that something was wrong the man’s face turned as white as a sheet, and he was sweating buckets!
“What’s wrong, boss?” he asked.
Chad, however, ignored him and turned to Sean. “Mr. Wesley, was it? I’ll let this one slide for now!”
In truth, Chad was there when Leo Grayson was killed, witnessing with his own eyes how Frank had cut down over forty men like they were nothing. And Leo could not even touch him!
Chad himself was fortunate to escape death by playing dead, or who knew what would have become of
him!
And now, with what few men he had, he was courting death by picking a fight with Frank!
On the other hand, Sean was stunned–when did he become so famous?
And beside Chad, Zuco was utterly confused since Chad looked prepared to defend him just then.” What… Why, boss?”
