Hux bellowed at Cid right then, "It''s all your fucking fault! Would I have messed with a fucking jinx like


    him otherwise?! No chance! See what you''ve done now?! All of the Sunzers are getting caught up in


    your mess!"


    "I didn''t know!" Cid was left clutching his cheek, on the verge of tears.


    How could he have known that this would happen?! He was just chatting up some girl, only for some


    monster to get involved!


    It was no exaggeration to say that his luck was the worst.


    Still, Hux''s anger soon eased and he assured Cid, "Look, that kid just might have what it takes. If he


    really could help me take over..."


    "That means. we hit the jackpot?!" Cid was beaming.


    Hux chuckled. "Sure, just keep it between us—no one must know. I''ll talk to the boss right now." -


    There was a 24-hour diner opposite the karaoke bar, and the students had gathered there at Kat''s


    suggestion.


    They were all huddled against the window, keen to see what was going to happen.


    The girls were especially whispering excitedly among themselves.


    "Kat, was that man your cousin? He''s as handsome as he''s strong, having the balls to stand against


    Hux Darman!"


    "Exactly. If only he was my boyfriend." Mandy agreed.


    On the other hand, Kat refused to answer and scowled at them—she had yet to forget that these girls


    were ready to betray just to save their skin.


    Most importantly, she had no idea who Frank actually was. All she knew was that he was her father''s


    guest, and nothing more.


    Soren snorted jealously just then. "Hah! So what if he can fight? Didn''t you hear Mr. Darman? Can he


    dodge bullets? Brute strength is pointless—it takes brain, position and connections to survive. There''s


    no telling if he can leave the karaoke bar now either. What''s so amazing about that?"

    "Exactly. I actually think that the buster is braindead. Probably some bumpkining to the city for the


    first time."


    "Pompous and acting tough? People like him would die early."


    The other boy agreed with Soren, though they had been grateful Frank saved them at first. In the end,


    they had to side with Soren.


    The girls were naturally worried after hearing the boys gloating and stared fixedly at the karaoke bar


    opposite in fear that Frank''s lifeless body would soon be towed out.


    Kat had been doing the same for a long while in silence but eventually spoke. "Soren, weren''t you


    saying that your father knows Hux? Can''t you ask your father to talk to Hux? That man did save us."


    Soren was silent for a while before shaking his head with an awkward look shortly after. "That''s too


    much to ask, Kat. Even if my dad is friends with Hux, that bastard beat up his brother and his goons."


    "I''m begging you, please," Kat pleaded. "He saved us. We have to do something!"


    "Well..." Soren hesitated for a moment but eventually sighed and nodded.
