Both Matis and Mel kept their heads lowered in fear, seeing that Lobo was seething. "What? Why aren''t


    you talking?" Lobo growled impatiently. "Cat got your tongue?" "A-Actually, I was just pulling your leg."


    Matis cleared his throat and shed an awkward smile. "No one robbedat all." "Yes, yes, yes... My son


    was just kidding!" Mel was smiling and nodding repeatedly as well.


    "You fucking people!" Lobo bellowed furiously, pping Matis across the face right then. "I was looking


    forward to venting my frustrations, but you''re now tellingyou''re just fucking with me? Even the likes of


    you think you can walk all over me, huh?" "Fine," he growled, waving Matis off. "You don''t need to cin


    for work tomorrow. There will be a new CEO in Jundo Showtown soon. Now get out of my sight!" Matis


    panicked right then, upon hearing that he was fired from the job he had gone to great lengths to get.


    Ignoring his mother''s interference, he quickly said, "I''m not messing with you, Lobo. It''s just that the guy


    is... someone you can''t mess with..." "Really?" Even as he trailed off to a mumble, Loboughed in


    amusement, but his face suddenly fell and he seized Matis by the cor, bellowing, "What the hell is


    with you today? You didn''t take your meds? Is there anyone I can''t mess with? Are you belittlingor just


    fucking with me?! Is there anyone the Soranos are afraid of?!" Then, he shoved Matis to have him lead


    the way. "Just take us to him already!" "Oh, no, no, no... It''s really alright, sir," Mel quickly said. "My son


    is fine without his job, and we-" "You''d better keep your mouth shut, hag!"  1 "I..." Mel''s


    jaw hung open, but had no idea what to say as she sat limply on the floor, her heart bleeding right then.


    Who knew that such an unassuming youth like Frank was so feared even by the Soranos? And now... if


    Lobo found out they were messing with Frank, his son could get killed! "H-He''s here, sir," Matis said,


    giving up on any resistance.

    It was not as if he had a choice when Lobo''s goons were nking him, and he ultimately stiffened


    himself as he strode into Nash''s ward.  ?wswn et And when Lobo saw that, he was


    at once shocked and confused. "Y-You mean... That person is..." "Yeah, it''s Frank Lawrence," Matis


    said, standing awkwardly at the doorway.


    Kat spotted him just then, and she immediately glowered and snapped at Matis hostilely, "Why did you


    cback? Do you want more?!" "N-No..." Matis could die even as he stood at the door, unsure what to do


    as he could neither enter nor back out.


    "Mr. Lawrence!" Mel suddenly pushed her son out of the way and rushed inside, kowtowing to Frank


    and Nash even as she begged, "I''m so sorry, Mr. Lawrence... We shouldn''t have eline mocked you!


    Please just forgive us! I swear you won''t ever see us again! Please just let us live!" Kat was actually


    surprised by her Aunt Mel''s reaction.
