"Master... Lawrence?" Kat coughed violently as she regained consciousness.


    "Yeah," Frank replied as he tousled her hair, his gaze at once scolding, exasperated, and pained. "Hahaha... I knew it! You''re the only one I know who could leap off a helicopter..."


    Frank scowled as Kat could joke even in this situation.


    "You brat!" he snapped, though not without worry. "You''d be dead if I were a moment toote!"


    Kat shrugged. "I really can''t worry about that right now... They''re ready to demolish the cottage, and I can''t just do nothing. It was my parents'' home..."


    Frank sighed exasperatedly, seeing the stubborn determination in Kat''s eyes.


    "I''ll teach you other techniquester," he said shortly as he put her down.Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.


    Kat coughed. "Have you finally grown a conscience, Master Lawrence?"


    "No, I just don''t want to clean up your mess every time!" Frank tapped her on the head, sending several bursts of pure vigor into her acupoints and rapidly invigorating her oxygen-deprived lungs.


    Within seconds, Kat was steadily standing at Frank''s side like she was perfectly fine. "Watch out, Mr. Lawrence. That bastard called himself Sil Lionheart and said he''s the vice-chief of Volsung Sect''s Caudal Hall."


    "Volsung Sect''s Caudal Hall?" Frank frowned, and slowly nodded.


    "What the..."


    At the same time, the dust around them was finally settling down, and the residents and thugs who were more keen-eyed noticed the man who was suddenly standing with Kat.


    In fact, one of the residents quickly remembered Frank and was pointing at him and eximing in delight, "I remember now! That boy is the Yego girl''s boyfriend!"


    "What?!"


    Even before the other thugs and residents understood, Frank stumbled and almost fell.


    Confusion showed all over his face-when did he be Kat''s boyfriend?!


    "Oh, so he''s Nash''s son-inw!"


    "Tut, tut. A proper young man like him must be one of them martial artists, right?"


    While Frank felt a little overwhelmed by the gossiping, he turned toward Sil, who appeared wary.


    "Who are you?!" Sil demanded.


    As the vice-chief of Volsung Sect''s Caudal Hall, Sil was naturally strong.


    But even though he was an early

    While Sil himself could hardly be certain that he would not break something, the other man appeared to be made of steel and was totally fine despite leaping down from so high.


    And that naturally left Sil doubtful.


    "You want to tear down these houses?" Frank said coolly instead of answering Sil''s question. "You have one chance. Break one of your arms and leave with your men, and I just might spare you... Or die!"


    The residents were all holding their thumbs up, quietly approving of Frank''s menacing threat!


    "The kid looks like a big deal!"


    "Yeah. He must be a rich kid too, daring to stand against the Lionhearts!"


    "Old Nash is such a lucky man, having a daughter who could marry rich."
