Quit trying to distract me, and tellalready... I take it that you couldn't solve your little problem, could you?" "Oh, that's amazing, Master Lawrence!" Mona giggled but soon added mischievously, "Well, you know my stupid grandpa was captured, right?"

"Hey, brat. You'd best cto the rundown temple in Zamri's outskirts by nightfall, or we're gutting your girl and your old man!" And with that, the call was disconnected.
Frank was left narrowing his eyes as he listened to the static beeping, not just because of the comedic duo of Mona and the thug, but also the location the thug boss mentioned. Content belongs to en.swThe rundown temple in the outskirts of Zamri? Frank had a really bad memory of that place.
