Most of the onlooking crowd gasped in surprise when they saw Burt's face since he was a famousperson.

The fact that he was here already meant that something big was about to go down!

A woman with thick makeup even sighed from the middle of the dance floor. "Well, jig's up. I wasjust saying that the kid is quite a looker, but he had to get physical with Tuck. It's over for him now—Tuck is friends with Burt."

"I heard the people he arrests end up half-dead. The kid's unlucky to run into him today.”

"Tch. It's his fault for flirting with Tuck's girl..."

"Open your eyes. She's the one throwing herself at him.”

Even as the crowd argued among themselves, Aria was shaking in fear.

The two thugs were already scared out of their minds and quickly carried Tuck out away and fledThe Dynasty for their lives.

While the crowd including Aria looked on in shock, Burt walked up to Frank, greeting himrespectfully. "I'm so sorry those pests soured the evening for you, Mr. Lawrence.”

Frank held up a hand, gesturing that he did not mind before beckoning at him to sit.

"What?!"

Everyone thought they were dreaming to see Burt basically fawning over Frank!

"And you are...?" Burt then glanced politely at Aria.

Aria sprang to her feet, uncomfortable with sitting right then. "Officer Yorkman, I'm a junior studentat Riverton University—"

"She's my sister's friend who just happened to run into me," Frank said neutrally, pushing a bottle ofbeer to Burt.

"Oh, Ms. Lawrence's friend?" Burt nodded respectfully at Frank.

Aria's breathing turned rushed as she flushed, almost fainting from sheer excitement.

She had never expected to make the acquaintance of someone important as Burt here, and shecould brag about this for years!

And Winter's brother was so well-connected that he could well own Riverton... Hell, not even thegovernor commanded so much influence!
