Truth be told, Burt had reached the position he was in today by his own merit and surprised even Sage


    Lake Sect.


    As such, there were some sect members who became wary of Burt rising to power.


    Meanwhile, both Frank and Burt drank a lot as they stayed at The Dynasty past midnight, having


    finished so many bottles that even the waiters and waitresses were starting to get afraid.


    "Mr. Lawrence, allow me to drive you home," Burt offered.


    He did not drink as much as Frank since he was asking for his instructions and was more or less sober.


    "N-No..." Frank slurred. "I just need to get a cab... Go home... Remember the techniques I taught you


    and train properly. Meditate on it."


    "Yes!" Burt was earnestly grateful, since Frank was already treating him a million times better than


    Sage Lake Sect.


    As he helped Frank out of The Dynasty, he looked up to find Aria crouching in front of Frank''s


    Maybach, shivering from the cold.


    "You''re still here?" he asked.


    Aria quickly leapt to her feet, rubbing her cheeks as she grinned. "Well, I was just thinking Frank had a


    lot to drink, and he''d need someone to drive him home."


    "You can drive?" Burt studied Aria from head to toe.

    Being aw enforcement officer for years, he could tell immediately that the girl was naive.


    However, since Frank said Aria was Winter''s friend, he did not dwell on it.


    "I do," Aria replied gingerly. "The college offers driving lessons, and I''ve been driving for a year."


    "Good. Take him home to Skywater Bay. Remember, you have to send him home."


    "Sure."


    Aria nodded tamely, having waited for so long just for that.


    Taking Frank''s key from his pocket, she got in the Maybach and fired up the ignition.


    "Hel... Hel..." Frank was too drunk and started mumbling.


    "Don''t worry, Frank. I''m taking you straight home." Aria smiled despite her impatience and sped off right


    in front of Burt.


    Burt was in turn clenching his knuckles impatiently—he wanted to rush home to start training, since


    Frank''s instructions were more than vital to him!


    On the other hand, the Maybach stopped before long.


    Instead of Skywater Bay, Aria took several detours and eventually took Frank to White Court Hotel.


    She called a bellboy who carried Frank to a room.


    After taking a careful bath, she kept her clothes off and sneaked into Frank''s arms.


    Before she slept, she sent his location to her best friend Winter.


    When Winter entered the room at noon the next day, she shrieked, "Ahh—!"


    "Hmm...?" Frank sat up, rubbing his head which ached from a nasty hangover.


    He immediately saw Aria in his arms, as well as Winter who was grasping at the door and staring at


    them in disbelief.


    "Frank, what." Winter''s jaw hung open, unable to say a word.


    Eventually, she came to her senses and mmed the door shut before she turned and fled, sobbing.
