Chapter 2123
It had been easy, but Frank was clearly denied his objective.
The geezer was most definitely the mastermind who orchestrated everything, but that was one thing on its own.
His lackeys were not going to disappear with his death—on top of that, there would be many more individuals like that geezer, and Frank must wipe them all out.
As Frank strode into Whitney Chandler's mansion, he saw that neither Whitney nor Lara Gold were asleep.
They were fiddling with their phones while clearly waiting for him and were on their feet when they saw him return.
"How did it go?" Lara asked.
"As it should." Frank shrugged. "What are you ladies doing, staying up?!"
"We're waiting for you, kiddo!" Whitney giggled. "It must've been a long day. Want a drink?"
"I'll pass I still have work to do tomorrow."
Whitney was a little disappointed. "Come on, I bought everything we need! Just think of it as paying rent!"
Frank was not sure if he should laugh or cry. "What, am I some male host?"novelbin
"Of course." Whitney nodded nonchalantly.
Frank sighed in exasperation.
But before he could argue, he suddenly felt an object rushing straight at him and turned to see a kunai launched right at his face!
"Who's there?!" Frank snapped even as he plucked the kunai out of thin air and launched it back where it came.
"Impressive!"
Someone yelled from outside, and countless more kunai shot in, but Frank caught them and launched them back in the direction they were thrown.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Silence eventually came, as a man who stood around five feet emerged from the darkness and stopped at the doorway.
He was short and chubby, and he wore a coat that did not fit him...
"You!"
Frank recognized him-it was the fat man who had instigated the villagers into robbing artifacts but was beaten to a pulp by Sylvie Wal and Lara! "Allow me to introduce myself," he said. "I'm Leo Lang. I'm really nobody important, so it makes sense if you forgot about me."
"How did you get this strong?" Frank asked coolly.
Leo laughed out loud. "Now that you mentioned it, it's all thanks to you! If I hadn't encountered your horrific strength, I wouldn't have met my benefactor who granted meSuch divine strength!
"Now, what I'm asking is simple," he continued and pointed at Lara. "Give her to me, and I'll make your death a quick one!"
"Fuck off!" Lara was stunned by Leo's strength but refused to give in!
Leo simply laughed in turn. "You don't care if you die? But aren't you worried about him?"
At the next instant, Leo swung his hand and pulverized a table!
Both Lara and Whitney paled in shock-if he could crush a table like that, he could certainly reduce Frank to ash!
"Run!" Lara yelled at Frank right then.
"Run? I really don't know what that word means!"
However, Frank was chuckling
confidently. "Leo Lang, was it? I'll remember your name, so let's make a bet if I beat you, you'll tell me everything you know about the spiritron vein!"
Frank was thrilled even as he made his wager, since he had really thought that the trail had gone cold. But while he was left unsure about his next move, this brat came knocking on his door.
It suited him just fine, sparing him the effort to look!
"Only those who walk the talk get to be cocky! And too bad for you, you're not one of them!"
Leo was ready to attack Frank, only to be caught by surprise when Frank proved to be a step ahead.
Appearing behind Leo in a flash, he seized Leo's neck with one hand and Leo's chin with the other, ready to snap his neck if he moved!
