Chapter 1371
Frank followed the Favonis to a smaller building to the back, and he could see Abel being surrounded by everyone even before he entered. He stood on the edge of the group, refraining from greeting Abel since the two Favoni sentries before were watching him.
They only allowed Frank to wait instead of meddling.
After all, they were told that Jaden Favoni, the star of the family's younger generation, was now half-dead because of Frank.
Even if Frank had cleared his name and proved he was not some despicable poisoner, the Favonis still extended the blame to him.
And whatever the higher-ups said was naturally taken way more seriously by the minions, which was why these sentries were hostile toward Frank.
There were even Favoni martial artists who came, sizing up Frank to see if he really was that good. If anything, a fight would have started if those two sentries did not stop them.
As such, in contrast to the respect and humility afforded to Abel, Frank was kept on a tight leash, not even allowed to meet Abel directly.
"Frank Lawrence! Come fight me if you have the balls!" a bald Favoni martial artist bellowed at Frank just then.
"That's right! You're the reason Master Jaden is suffering! How do you sleep at night?!"
"Hah! Just look at that coward. He'd never accept our challenge!"
Frank was at first impassive despite the Favoni martial artists' yapping, but there was only that much a man could take.
As their insults got worse and resorted to personal attacks, he wheeled on them and bellowed, "Listen here! It's Stella Favoni's fault for attacking Lanecorp Tower at the Bearsons' goading in the first place! And then you people distorted the truth and slandered me, even challenging me to a duel!
"I accepted the challenge and proved my innocence, while exposing the Bearsons' conspiracy for all to see! And yet all you lowlives remained willingly ignorant and continued circle jerking! Challenge me?! Hah! Who do you think you are?!"
Suddenly stomping one foot forward, Frank bellowed thunderously, "Get out of my sight before I start throwing punches!"
His bellow erupted into a shockwave
of pure vigor, knocking down the Favoni martial artists who were hounding him, flooring him right then!
"Argh!"
Still, most of the Favoni martial artists soon got on their feet, their expression furious.
On one hand, they were enraged that Frank was so insolent, even when he was in their turf.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
On the other hand, Frank's menacing presence left them terrified, even more than Chet Favoni ever did.
And Chet was the head of the family!
Could Frank really be stronger than Chet? How was that possible?!
Beside Frank, the two Favoni
sentries flanking him were left stunned when they saw how the Favoni martial artists were knocked down just from Frank's bellow.
Despite their shock, they drew their swords at Frank. "This is Favoni House! Watch yourself!"
"Hah! You're actually aware of that?!"
Frank snorted in disdain as he
looked around at everyone. "Is this how you Favonis treat your guests?! I was told you are a clan of martial artists and expected dignity, but all of you merely proved to be
Love
disrespectful thugs. Did your parents teach you to treat your guests like this?!"
Hearing that Frank was lecturing his family's martial artists, Edon frowned as he strode toward them.
"What's going on here?!" he barked, looking between everyone.
