"Dad…"

Lydia did a double take but hung her head and sighed. "He's someone from a completely different world. He saved Gene Pearce and is a martial artist, while I'm just a car sales girl. I'm not the right girl for him."

"Hehe…" Aaron chuckled. "But you ran into each other by chance, twice . What is that if not fate? And if fate is on your side, you should at least give it a try… Whether it works is another thing entirely."

"Okay," Lydia nodded at her father's words, before checking her watch. "I need to get back to work, dad. I'll be going to Mr. Lawrence's house to finalize the paperwork."

"Good. Run along now." Aaron smiled, adding, "And don't forget what I told you."

"Yeah." Lydia smiled in wry amusement, taking the note with Frank's address out of her briefcase.

Melancholy showed on her face—she would certainly like to get to know Frank better, but cruel reality made it clear that she did not deserve him.

After asking around, she learned that Lanecorp's chairwoman and the

    Claude's voice turned sinisterly cold, and he punched the wall as he chuckled coolly. "You have half an hour, Lydia. If you don't show up at Zamri Hospital, your father and his hospital bed would be thrown out. Just watch!"Beep…Lydia was at once terrified and anxious as Claude hung up on her.If she really did not go to the hospital, Claude might really come good on his threat!Still, just as Lydia rushed to the hospital, Frank was just stepping out of Winter's office.He had come to check up on her, as well as offering her and Abel Loggins some insight on unusual medical cases and atypical illness.Staying holed up at Zamri Hospital had been rewarding for Abel, and he was once again rejoicing that he was right in choosing Frank as his mentor.The man was young, but his knowledge, skill, and experience were far beyond his years.In fact, he was even brazenly asking Frank if he could practice martial arts despite his age.After all, most of the advanced medical skills require

    "But what you did is really asking for it." Claude laughed even as shoved his ankle harder on Aaron's leg.The old man screamed even more loudly and sweated buckets all over his face.Even so, he showed grit as he never once begged for mercy."That's enough!" Winter had had enough as she looked on, striding into the ICU and glowering as she snapped, "What do you think you're doing here? Is the hospital a place where you bully women?!""Oh?" While Claude was surprised by the door suddenly opening, his eyes lit up when he turned and came to his senses.The girl standing there was wearing a clean white coat over a black shirt and a pair of slim cut pants. Though she appeared angry, her righteous indignation appeared to brighten her expression.In fact, Claude almost started drooling when he saw Winter—she was no national beauty like Helen and the others, but she was still the most beautiful in her university. Her face was the type one would not forget, and a pervert like Claud

    Claude continued gloating. "You don't know the unwritten rules in this hospital since you just started out, right? Just ask my brother-in-law—he earns millions just by bringing in every medical machinery here. "And what can you earn as a doctor in comparison? Join me, and once I recommend you to him, you'll soon be driving a BMW once you get in on the action."However, that only struck Winter with realization, and she lowered her head as she muttered to herself, "So that's why the numbers and prices of the latest batch of machines purchased by the inpatient department just didn't fit!"If Jet Quaid were there and heard his brother-in-law bringing to light everything he did, he would slap Claude twice in fury! Talk about family misfortune!"Well, thank you for providing that information."Claude was once again surprised that Winter was not caving, even pointing at him and snapping, "Now I'm warning you twice—get off that patient, or I'm calling security!""Huh?!"Claude got im

    Seeing that Lydia was panicking, Winter assured her, "You don't have to worry about the cost."Then, turning toward Claude, she continued, "The one who hurt the patient will pay, along with additional damages."Claude's smirk stiffened, and he soon scowled hostilely. "You brat! Are you saying I'll be paying?!""Are you refusing?" Winter shot back coolly and bluntly."Hehe… Don't you think you're pushing your luck, kiddo?"Claude was really angered as Winter was not listening at all, leaving him embarrassed.Forget Lydia—even his bodyguards were here, and he had never embarrassed himself like this before!That was when Winter continued impassively, "Trust me, you'll be on your knees, begging me to let you pay."Claude was taken aback. He flew into a rage as he hollered, "What, just because you asked?! Dream on! Go get her right now, boys—me, going down on my knees?! I'll show her!"At Claude's orders, the bodyguards' eyes flashed dangerously as they charged at Winter."Mona!"

    And within a minute, the bodyguards were all floored and unconscious.Naturally, the equipment around the ICU ward was all broken.Smack!Mona laughed coolly in turn, walking up to Claude and slapped him across the face without a word. "You were going to make Winter kneel naked, right?"Claude was left staggered from the slap.He was at first panicking from Mona's show of strength, but the slap sent his rage and humiliation into overdrive.Clenching his fists, he bellowed furiously, "You! How dare you hit me! Don't you know who I am?!""Does that matter to me?"Mona laughed nonchalantly and slapped him resoundingly again. "Do you know who owns this place, messing around here?!""Shit!"Claude felt his cheeks burning from the second slap, feeling not just pain but also humiliation.As he leapt toward Mona maniacally, her single kick left him dropping to his knees, clutching his groin.Various vibrant colors alternated over his face, as he was totally emasculated.He was tre

    By the time Jet and Liev rushed into the ICU ward, they were left stunned by the sight before them.The room was a mess, with several Dresden family bodyguards strewn around on top of broken medical equipment.Claude was himself on his knees, sobbing as he clutched his bleeding groin."W-What's going on here?!"While Liev was stunned to see his son's condition, Jet wheeled on Mona who stood nearby, striding up to her and bellowing, "Who are you?! Who let you in here?!"Mona pursed her lips. "Am I obliged to answer your question?!""You little…!" Jet growled, but he quickly repressed his rage to help Claude in his feet, only to be left shocked by what he saw.After all Claude's groin was a mess of mush and blood, clearly castrated—it was clear that the brat standing nearby must be the cause."W-What happened to my son?!" Liev demanded anxiously, still sane and trying to find out what happened."I castrated him," Mona admitted, shrugging since she would not stoop to lying."Wha

    "Name your price!" Liev barked, having gone through plenty in his years building a legacy in Zamri.When he realized that brute strength would not work, he must negotiate a way out.Whatever happened, he must not lose his son or his lineage ended here."Nope."But contrary to Liev's expectations, Mona had no intentions to negotiate and shook her head. "Someone told me to watch Claude and keep him here until she gets back.""So this is not up for negotiation?" Liev growled, incensed."That's right," Mona replied nonchalantly and got herself a chair to sit on.Live turned toward Jet in turn and asked, "How long does Claude have?""How long…?"Jet did a double take and quickly ran over to check Claude.It took quite a while until Claude looked up blankly at Liev, and said, "He's safe… He's not going to die.""What?!" Liev exclaimed in disbelief."It's true." Jet sighed exasperatedly. "I've checked—he had his balls kicked off, but the brat did so with precision, avoiding any ma

    While the Dresdens would be helpless against Mona any other day, she was not in luck today—Percy just happened to have a cousin visiting and brought along several martial arts friends!"Alright, we'll be waiting!" Liev quickly said. "Tell your cousin that he will be rewarded handsomely once he gets this done!"Hanging up, he turned toward Mona and sneered viciously. "I'd be thinking about how to escape if I were you, brat.""Heh." Mona snorted and said nothing else.Her cool reaction left Liev uncertain, and he wondered if Mona was well-connected.However, he had no choice but to wait, since his son was in dire condition while he still had no idea who the brat was.Soon, there was a rush of footsteps down the hallway, and a blond kicked open the door, striding in with a metal bat in hand.Naturally, the blond was Percy, and his mannerisms were your run-of-the-mill street thug's.Beside him were four burly men, wearing sleeveless shirts and having bulging muscles, clearly not yo

    Furious, the drunkard snapped, "The lady never protested, boy. What's it to you?"Frank smirked in turn. "So what if she didn't? And you'd be dead if I didn't want to spare myself the trouble."The drunkard was left frustrated, but he also knew that he could not argue against someone like Frank and wheeled on the cabbie with a cool glare.There was no reason for the cabbie to pick up another passenger after already taking on Frank and Drunken Moon.However, it was just as he said—it was hard to make a living, and it would have been reasonable if Frank had just said no.Be that as it may, this drunkard had to provoke the two youths who were perfectly amicable, and even the cabbie could not abide with that!"I'm sorry, sir, but this isn't your home," he warned sternly. "You don't get to put the moves on a lady just because you wanted to. And if you don't like it, you can get off!"However, it seems that pride was ingrained in the drunkard's bones. Still half-drunk and seeing that

    After just a couple of words, Drunken Moon hung up and told Frank about the tip, and he nodded. "It's time that we go back too. But before that…"The bellgirl was a magnet for trouble just like Frank, and who knew what would happen to her soon if she was left alone.As such, Frank decided to just deal with the root of the issue and granted her some of his powers.It went without saying that the bellgirl was absolutely thrilled, feeling the alterations in her body. "S-So this is the providence of bestowing powers?!" she exclaimed. "You're really giving me too much credit, Mr. Frankton!"Drunken Moon laughed. "Hang around long enough, and you'd know that he respects everyone, aside from those who disrespect others. But try not to tell anyone—knowing is enough."The bellgirl nodded blankly, while Frank and Drunken Moon headed downstairs, taking a taxi to return to the homestay cottage.They were talking when the cabbie suddenly asked, "Excuse me, can I take on another passenger?

    As she spoke, Drunken Moon shoved Frank back into the room, staring blankly at his face for a moment.Truly, with good deeds came goodies—she had been a dutiful priestess, and the heavens thus responded.And now, they delivered a pretty boy for her enjoyment!"I shall now partake, handsome!" she purred and went to work…-Frank woke up early the next morning, buying breakfast outside before returning to the room and finding Drunken Moon awake.She lay sprawled on the bed, rubbing her hips and frowning. "I heard from Alda that the ladies who had a taste were sore the next day."I was skeptical, but now I believe it. You're really too strong, you bully!"Frank chuckled. "Well, not all of them. At least Sylvie was fine!""What?!" Drunken Moon blanched.She would not mind losing to the likes of Jada, since they were more or less action women, and it made sense.But Sylvie was a normal woman! How did she get such good hips?Reading Drunken Moon's mind, Frank chuckled. "In the en

    As Frank nodded in understanding, the youth continued, "I just happened to be in the neighborhood and was going to visit the white-clad geezer, but I didn't expect him to be dead."Still, I found out after investigation that he deserved it, so I came to you with the intention to have a spar. I even told them beforehand that I came for revenge, since I was worried you wouldn't go all out."It's just a shame that I was so weak that I wouldn't even last a second."Frank smiled, shaking his head. "That's not all there is to it. You're the first to realize the gap between us—people like you who know their own limits are that rare."The youth chuckled. "Well, I have a question—with your regeneration, and in cases where you're decapitated, would your body regenerate out of your head, or would your head regenerate out of your body?"And if it was cut in half, would one half be abandoned while the other heals?"That was a question that the youth had withheld for a long while. From the ver

    "Revenge?" Frank was puzzled, though Drunken Moon had no idea why he would be. "What's so weird about that? With the long list of enemies you have, someone would definitely come for you!"Frank laughed. "No, you misunderstand. I'm not puzzled as to why people would hate me—sure, I'm always vanquishing evil, but I would always make sure they die. Why would anyone want to avenge them?""Hehe!" Drunken Moon giggled—so that was what Frank actually worried about?Still, it made sense, as Frank's ability could match the gods', and there really were not that many who could escape his clutches!"In that case, we should get this out of the way," she then said. "Let's go deal with those third-rates now."Drunken Moon smiled wryly, but she followed Frank downstairs to find a hunched youth waiting.The youth seemed not to care that much about his grudge, even studying Frank's frame with interest. "Amazing… Simply amazing! That physique of yours is quite the rarity!" "The legs of a crane,

    The demisage did a double take before laughing silly while looking at Frank like he was stupid.After all, Frank could have destroyed him without a scratch. It was only natural the demisage was shocked that Frank was such an idiot he would challenge his ward instead!"Did you know who taught me that ward?" The demisage gloated. "It was my mentor—a man more powerful than you'd ever be!"Let me put it to you this way—this ward would consume even a tank! That said, you don't have to worry about your girl. She's quite a looker, if nothing else!"Frank smirked. "Did you know that if you want to win a lady over, you must conquer her with sheer power? Schemers like you aren't at all attractive to them!"With those words, he spread his arms, feeling the strange energy surging around him.The demisage was right that his mentor was powerful, and this ward was new to Frank. He would not even shy from saying that every opponent he ever faced might not beat this ward either, and one could t

    The demisage smiled ever so subtly and said, "It's never a good idea to prowl the streets alone. It'd be terrible if someone blindsides you."Frank nodded. "You're right, one must never do that—who knows what wickedness they'd run into."Both men shared a smile with each having their own thoughts, while their car soon arrived outside an abandoned school.As they alighted, the demisage led Frank up to the top floor and drew a strange ward on the floor.The demisage then pointed at its center. "There, in the middle!"Frank nodded and was about to step inside before abruptly stopping. "That's how the others got killed, huh?"The demisage did a double take but quickly said, "You're so funny, kid!"Frank smirked. "Oh, but I'm not. Do you think I'm inexperienced like the rest? I'd disintegrate as soon as I stepped into the ward—or am I wrong?"While the demisage was caught by surprise and could not manage a word, Frank chuckled. "Curious how I found out, aren't you? To be honest, I d

    While Drunken Moon was determined to not let Frank slip through her fingers, she was still embarrassed since this was her first time.She blushed even harder at Frank's words and shouted in the direction of the door, "Hold on!"Then, speeding into the bathroom to get changed and running out, Frank opened the door to see the bellgirl with a shaman standing beside her.Or a demisage, to be precise!He was shaved bald and had a brand over his forehead, but he was holding a Ouija board and sported a goatee, looking just like the charlatans on TV.If the demisage had not pointed out precisely which room was haunted, the bellgirl would not have let him in at all!"Greetings!"The demisage nodded at Frank and Drunken Moon before turning toward the bathroom.Then, turning back towards Frank approvingly, he said, "If I'm not mistaken, you're the one who destroyed the creature that was inside?"Frank nodded. "You have a good eye, but do tell—how did you know this was the room?""That's

    Frank and Drunken Moon headed to the suite, though it was anything but—there was simply more effort put into the interior design.Drunken Moon pointed at the bathroom. "I guess you felt it even before we came in?"Frank smiled and nodded—he could sense the bundle of energy lingering in the bathroom, a paranormal element as the layman would put it."What, am I in charge of ghostbusting now?" he joked.Drunken Moon sat on bed, crossing her legs, and shrugged. "Don't worry. You will be rewarded—just hurry!"Frank nodded and opened the bathroom to find a bundle of black hair on the floor.The hair was squirming like the tentacles of an octopus and reaching outward but could not leave the bathroom for some reason.Frank knocked on the door and realized that it had been infused with some sort of special energy, confining the black hair inside."Sorry, but you're being evicted!"Levitating the black hair with just a thought, Frank had it explode with a pop.Then, ensuring that the e
