Even as Frank faced off against Hal and his thugs, the students craned their necks, peeking outcuriously from the lecture hall.

Some of the more cowardly female students were already pale in fear.

It was not as if there had not been such confrontations at the medical faculty—things simply endedbadly for those who confronted Hal.

"That's enough from you, Hal!" Jean bellowed as she ran out of the lecture hall.

It was her idea to invite Frank as a guest lecturer, and even she would never forgive herself ifanything happened to Frank, let alone Winter.

She was certainly cursing herself for forgetting that Hal was such a bastard!

Hal simply licked his lips and shoved her aside. "It's not my fault, Jean—he's so full of himself I needto straighten him out, or I'd lose face now!"

He would hit Bravo too? The same Bravo Lambert who was Kurt Stinson's right-hand man?

Even if one would be forgiven for not knowing Bravo, that was not the case for Kurt.

The man was the kingpin of East City who owned every night entertainment joint in the area, and hewas untouchable.

Still, even Hal's thugs who were ready to swarm Frank were left hesitant after what Frank said.

They all looked toward Hal for orders, even as Hal winced from the pain on his cheek, his heartpounding.

He was starting to wonder if Frank actually had powerful friends too, and he had certainly heardthat the head of Grande Pharma pharmaceutical research had close ties with the Turnbulls.

Still, he came to his senses when he saw his thugs trading glances around him and snapped angrily,"Quit gawking and help me up!"

Once they did, Hal whipped out his phone and called Bravo.

"Just you wait!" he snapped at Frank despite his lopsided mouth. "Fool me, and I'll make you regretjig

Bravo happened to be in the middle of a motel romp. It was certainly a killjoy for his phone tosuddenly ring with a call, and from his own brother at that!

Still, he never stopped his hips even as he answered the phone. "What's up, Hal?"
