Chapter 1749
While the building in West City exploded, Huub was in Zamri, leading his bodyguards and raiding Cologne Court.
"Start looking!" he snapped. "Find the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom!"
"Yes, sir!" they replied at once.
Once inside, they threw all the food that Carol Zims had just cooked on the floor and smashed various antiques and expensive objects. Even the tea set Silverbell gave Frank was left in pieces.
"What are you doing?!"
Winter Lawrence had just come home from work and was having dinner with everyone when they were immediately seized by the bodyguards and shoved on the floor.
"Search her!" Huub barked, and they promptly groped all over Winter's body.
"Who are you people?!" Winter shrieked. "What do you think you're doing?!"
"Get off!"
A dainty figure leapt up just then, kicking the bodyguards and sending them flying.
It was Kat Yego, and she was pointing at Huub as she bellowed, "Are you crazy?! Messing up my mentor's house?! He will show you once he's back!" "The tea seat! It's Frank's favorite..."
Winter exclaimed and quickly tried to pick up the broken tea set, but a bodyguard pushed her out of the way.
"Ouch!" Winter gasped, as a bleeding slit was cut into her palm.
"W-What's going on here? What did Frank do to you?"
"Let's just talk about this... Please stop breaking everything."
Nash Yego and Carol came to their senses just then and were trembling even as they tried to reason with Huub. "Don't bother talking to them, Dad!"
Kat snapped angrily, blunt as ever as she sent flying two more oncoming bodyguards with a kick. "Call Heten. Ask her to send Terry Cotton and his men let's see what they can do then!"
Huub was frowning since Kat was proving a difficult opponent, but he soon laughed coolly. "Hahaha! Helen Lane was the one who instructed me to come here and search for the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom! Frank Lawrence stole mine, so I'll take his as compensation!"
"What?!"
Winter was the first who turned flustered when she heard that Frank had stolen something. She quickly exclaimed, "That's impossible! Frank is not like that!"
Huub snorted. "Not like that? And you would know?! Helen Lane herself agreed that he stole it, and you're still siding with him? Don't make me laugh!"
"That's impossible!"
Winter was spacing out, her face turning pale. "Why would Frank steal from someone else? And Helen... She wouldn't let you raid this mansion..."
"Stop talking, Winter!"
Mona Fairfax, who had just left her room, was shocked by the scene and hurried over to stop Winter's bleeding.
Her face was ashen as she did, as she saw the food thrown all over the floor.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
"Isn't that...?"
Nash spotted the bodyguards running straight to the garage, clearly targeting Frank's Bugatti Veyron.
He panicked-he knew how expensive the car was, and given how savage Huub and his men were, they would break the car too.
Running over to the Veyron, Nash shielded it while yelling, "Sir, you can search what you want, but stop breaking things! Everything here is precious!"
