"I got it, Grandpa Zam!" That was when Willy, still grasping his bleeding wrists, snarled through the pain. "Just this morning, we were told that our acquisition of Lycoris Entertainment was invalidated after someone ratted out the falsified accounts." Glaring at the impassive Frank, he snapped furiously, "And the company that acquired Lycoris Entertainment soon after is a small company called Lane Holdings... and | remember a Frank Lawrence being one of the executives!" "Hmm?" Zam frowned as he turned to Frank. "You're the one who interfered with my grandson's acquisition of Lycoris Entertainment?" "Three." Frank did not bother wasting his breath, still impassive as he counted down.

It was the first the was being belittled—he ranked above forty in Skyrank and was a Birthright rank, which was basically a great achievement in itself. only to be belittled in shick town?! "Frank Lawrence, lettell you who I am," he bellowed furiously. "People callZam Sorano of the Bright Sun Fists, so get down on your knees if you know your place!" "Zam Sorano?!" Noel gasped behind Frank, having heard the name.
Zam was infamous for massacring an upper middle-class family in Morhen for messing with the Soranos, and it had caused a stir in the city at the time. Even the Martial Alliance had to get involved, and Lady Silverbell herself had to mediate.
Zam ultimately strong-armed his way out anyway, and it just went to show how bad things could get when he was involved. [x] "Run, Frank! Don't worry about me!" Noel kept pulling at Frank sleeves and tried to push him away, only to find him unbudging like a mountain no matter how she tried.

Zam laughed despite himself—so someone in little Riverton had never heard of him and treated him as if he were stwo-bit thug! "Get your wrist checked, Willy. I'll straighten out this blind fool," he growled, standing with his hands clasped behind his back while his eyes flashed with rage.
"Yeah... You have to do this for me, Grandpa Zam!" Willy cried, glaring venomously at Frank as the bodyguards escorted him away.
"Don't worry. I'll just break his legs." Zam smiled savagely. "He likes to be a tough guy, so I'll let him!" Once the bodyguards escorted Willy away and only Frank, Noel, and Zam were left. Frank counted, "One." His fingers closing, he glared at Zam and chuckled. "I guess Willy Sorano knows enough to bail, so what are you doing here? Trying to dig a grave for yourself?" Zam laughed again—how full of himself was this kid?! Did he not hear a word of what everyone said?! "I'll break every bone in your body, you little shit! You'll regret messing with the Soranos!" he bellowed and leapt without hesitation toward Frank.
His pure vigor enveloping his fist with a golden glint, he aimed his punch squarely at Frank's face in an instant!
