Chapter 2012
Stanley's fingers clenched around the white pill as he smirked. "Hmph. You have three days, Frank Lawrence! You should thank Elder Fango for his
generosity!"Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Frank was left scowling as he stared at the pill.
However, seeing that Tidus Simmons and Scarface Tucker were ready for a fight, he gritted his teeth and swallowed the black pill that Elder Fango passed him.
"Hehe..."
Stanley almost laughed out loud as he looked on-Frank could not blame him now, not when he had chosen to end himself!
"Alright, you can all leave now."
Elder Fango smiled, pacifying the scene right then. "We shall wait three days now. There's nothing to be done if you can't produce evidence after that, Frank-it's death even if Governor Quill speaks on your behalf. Do you understand?"
Frank nodded. "Yes"
However, before he could continue, he suddenly coughed a mouthful of blood.
"Chief!"
"Mr. Lawrence?!"
Tidus, Scarface, and everyone else were shocked at the sight.
"Hehe. Don't worry, that's normal."
Stanley waved them off. "You can take him with you, with my assurance that Zamri's administration and martial artists would not bother any of you in these three days."
"What..."
Tidus frowned as he saw that Frank's vigor was wilting rapidly.
However, he could not say much since that was Frank's decision.
He and Scarface could only carefully help Frank to his feet and quickly head to Zamri Hospital.
And after watching them leave,
Stanley turned and bowed his head at Elder Fango with a fawning smile. "You're amazing, sir, making Frank Lawrence submit in one swift stroke..."
"Heh."
Elder Fango, however, was not impressed.
He merely studied Stanley for a while and sneered. "You should watch your back, Mr. Mayor. Someone's always watching-even if you could deceive everyone else,
do dare think that you can
deceive my old eyes."
And with that, he left without so much a glance behind.

Stanley watched as he left, his fawning smile turning into a scowl.
Podrick, who was watching Stanley, frowned as he asked softly, "What should we do now, Mr. Mayor? Are we just going to wait for three days while we do nothing?"
"No way."
Stanley continued to stare at Elder Fango as he left, murmuring softly, "I'm not that passive. It's time to make our move-through Blackie." "Yes, sir!" Podrick was smirking at the name too.
Meanwhile, in a stark-white ward in Zamri Hospital...
"How could you be so reckless, chief?!"
Tidus was pacing around at the edge of Frank's bed, clenching his knuckles. "We could've just fucked them up-it's not like we're scared!
But you had to risk your life instead!"

Peter Lane was sighing exasperatedly too. "Tidus is right. You're being reckless, Frank."
"Oh, quit it. That's just who Brother Lawrence is."
Scarface huffed and glanced at Frank with a hopeful look. "So? Can you do something about that geezer's poison?"
Frank stayed silent, shaking his head.
