An elderly bearded man strode up behind Frank and barked, "I told you to stop, you hear?"

"Hmm.?"

Frank slowly turned and immediately noticed the lion head embroidered into the old man's lapel.

"The Lionhearts sent you, I presume?" he asked impassively.novelbin

"Indeed. The name's Trenton, and I demand you let go of Mr. Sorano right now," the elderly man

snapped. "He's under our protection, so if you kill him, you'll be our enemy!"

"Haha." Frank chuckled as he shook his head, immune to Trenton's threat. "He provoked me endlessly,

even threatening to kill my family. Do you think he'd repent just because I let him go?"

Trenton frowned, but promised, "You have the Lionhearts' assurance that he'll stay in line—but only if

you release him."

"Hmph."

Frank snorted and eased his fingers, sparing Hubert. "In that case, you have one chance."

He was not that eager to make enemies of everyone, after all.

On the other hand, Hubert was on his knees, wheezing as he glared venomously at Frank.

Trenton helped him to his feet and started heading for the door, saying, "Mr. Sorano, Mr. Graves sent

us to protect you. Rest assured that you'll be safe if you come with us now."

However, as soon as Hubert saw the lion head embroidered on Trentons' lapel, his fear turned into

conceit.

"Hahaha! How caring of Chaz, and he certainly read that bastard's moves!" he exclaimed, standing

amongst the bodyguards as he turned smugly towards Frank. "Did you think this is over?! Just you wait

—I'll have you and the rest of your family killed—especially your sister! You'll be crying and begging for

my forgiveness after what you did!"

"Mr. Sorano!"

Even Trenton was frowning at Hubert's unruly behavior as soon as he had protection.

Before he could stop Hubert, he saw Frank's murderous sneer as he slowly advanced.

"Hmm. amusing. I already gave you a chance, but it's not my fault that someone's really asking for it!"

Seeing that Frank was advancing, Hubert hid behind the bodyguards while snapping, "Don't you know

who these people are?! They are Titus Lionheart's men! If you lay a finger on me, he'll leave you in

pieces!"

"Titus Lionheart?"

Frank, however, never stopped.

He even glanced at Trenton and said icily, "I gave you Lionhearts a chance, but now it seems that you

refuse to appreciate it. Back away, and I'll let you live."

Even Trenton felt his breath leave his lungs at Frank's conceited threat.

After some thought, he quickly said, "Mr. Lawrence, Mr. Graves had mentioned you, and Master Titus

had been informed about your close relationship with Ms. Turnbull. He won't press the issue, but we

insist on offering Hubert Sorano refuge. However, I'm sure we can come to a compromise..."
