Despite being thrown to the floor, Gerry was still cursing. "Fuck! You''ve got balls toy a finger on me! Do you know who my uncle is?! The Lionhearts have his back, and if you touch me again—" Seeing that he was still threatening them, Thunder strode up and stomped his foot, breaking one of Gerry''s fingers with an audible crack.


    "Argh!!!"


    The heartrending agony was real-Gerry was left clutching his hand as hey sprawled on the ground, screaming hysterically.


    "Are you going to be reasonable now, Mr. Bearson?" Frank asked, impassive even as he arched his back.


    "F-Fuck you! Just you wait... Just you wait!" Gerry cursed as he gasped in pain.


    "Watch your mouth!" Thunder snapped and crushed Gerry''s palm under his foot this time.


    Even as Gerry shrieked, rolling around the ground, he was finally relenting, his tone actually tearful. "W-What do you want?! How dare you mess with me on my family''s turf. Are you so bored?" Frank shook his head. "Like I said, we''re here in peace. We just want to buy the house, but we have to take some necessary action since you''re not cooperating. So? Are you willing to cooperate now?" Knowing that resisting would bring more pain, Gerry turned and found in shock that all his bodyguards were floored beyond the gates.


    Even as hisst shred of hope was crushed, he growled through his teeth, "F-Fine, I''ll leave! You can have the house!"


    "Heh..."

    It was necessary for repainting and renovations, and that was a task for Gene, who had already anticipated that.


    Over hundreds of contractors were soon in the mansion, seizing every moment to revamp the mansion.


    Since Frank and the others had no reason to stay, they returned to Lanecorp.


    After getting Thunder and Bolt settled in on their new roles, Frank and Silverbell quickly had a meeting with Helen and Vicky.


    He told both women about the spiritron vein.


    Vicky nodded, not particrly surprised, while Helen was shocked.


    She was at a loss, since she did not е expect thend lot that the Bearsons were obsessing over to embody such a treasure. "What should we do. Frank?"


    "I think..."


    Frank nced between Vicky and Helen, frowning. "Silverbell will protect both of you, while your people start excavating thatnd in secret l''ll continue to run


    interference against Kilian Lionheart and the Bearsons."


    "Are you sure? The Bearsons are quite powerful." Helen frowned slightly, a little worried.


    "Don''t worry. I''m plenty confident." Frank nodded.


    Someone knocked on the conference room door just then.


    "Come in," Helen said and turned.


    It was Lily, her secretary, who was leveling an awkward look at Frank. "We have a problem, Ms. Lane. Arge group of people just rushed into our building and started to beat up everyone they could reach They''re demanding to see Mr. Lawrence..."
