Frank sneered. "If you want him to live, you''ll bring him over to Loggins Apothecary and have him
kowtow to Nash in apology... It''s either that, or you can wait until he dies screaming in three days. And
you can trustwhen I say he''ll regret being alive then." With those words, Frank leapt off the second floor
before anyone could respond,nding on top of one of Willy''s luxury cars. As the Sorano bodyguards
around him looked on in shock, he leapt into a dcar and drove off.
"Stop him! Stop him!" EmiSorano-Willy''s father-bellowed manically at the bodyguards downstairs,
having rushed to the scene after hearing what had happened.

"Oh... Okay!" The bodyguards finally cto their senses and finally gave chase.
However, Frank had already put a considerable distance between them, and they had no hope of
beating him even if they caught up.
As such, they merely looked busy chasing after Frank but were actually doing it half-heartedly.
None of them were eager to die anyway.
And within minutes, the Soranos'' elite bodyguards never arrived, and the others basically escorted
Frank out of Sorano Estate.
The second floor of Willy''s mansion was eerily silent, save for Willy himself rolling around the floor.
He was shouting for help endlessly and crying in pain, begging for someone to kill him-everything that
would leave anyone creeped out.
As Zico Sorano''s eldest son and Willy''s father, Emiwas furious to see his son being put through such
anguish.
"Call for a doctor. Find out what happened to him... And can someone tellwhat happened already?!" At
his bellow, Tony Sorano-who had been silent for a while-looked around at the gathered Sorano
retainers and other high-ranked members of the family.
Sighing, he strode up and spoke quietly, "Your son messed with an Ascendant rank, and he cfor
revenge." As everyone else appeared confused, he exined quietly, "Willy assaulted the man he sent
to deliver medicine, tortured him, and suffered his retaliation." "Nonsense!" Emimmed his hand on
the table as he sprang to his feet, bellowing furiously, "What do we pay the retainers and bodyguards
for Forget not subduing an enemy you''re siding with them to use my son?! I don''t care about
justice-he attacked Sorano Estate, and that''s unforgivable!" "Exactly!" Emilio''s brothers agreed, with his
second brother striding forwards as he growled coolly, "We are one of the Four Families of Morhen,
and someone was allowed to cand go as they pleased?! What would people think?!" "That''s right!"
Emilio''s third brother barked, scowling. "Not only would theyugh at us, but do you think they''d still
fear us? They''d just treat us like spushovers!" S "I propose that we send our men out to capture him.
We''ll skin him as everyone watches, so that he''ll understand the consequences of messing with us!" "I
concur!" too!"
