Zark continued, "I remember telling you that I just met him, but I'm sure he isn't. Just pretend I never said a thing if you run into his wife."
Janice smiled and nodded.
That was when they heard a rush of footsteps down the hallway.
They turned and saw that Eric had returned with a dozen thugs behind him, and Zark chuckled. "I'm surprised you really came. But you'd better be sure about this—you're the hospital chief, and if someone finds out that you were being violent with a patient's family, you'd be facing a lawsuit or even jail time."
Eric stood before him and snapped, "Don't bother threatening me! I've worked hard to reach where I am today, and you have no idea how amazing I am!"
Janice turned to Zark. "What's the story here?"
"What do you think?" Zark chuckled. "We were cooking medicine outside, but that geezer picked up the scent and decided he wanted the lunarise root for himself. He even tried to deceive us, saying that Draconian traditional medicine is bad and pretended to help us dispose of it.
"However, Chief Frankton was insightful. He saw through the geezer's plan right away and exposed him, so he brought his goons to fight for him since he was embarrassed!"
"Huh?!"
Janice would actually have doubted that there were people so disgusting if she was not looking at the man in the flesh.
Still, it made sense since another college student was hospitalized upstairs because he behaved just as terribly.
Moreover, she was no angel and had been worse than Eric at times, so she would rather they resolve this peacefully.
He crashed on the floor, but yelled despite his pain, "What are you just standing round for?! Hit him! I'll pay 200 grand to the one who does best!"
The thugs were absolutely thrilled and charged at Zark wildly.
Contrary to Eric's expectations, however, Zark punched each of them down with a single punch, finishing the fight in under a minute.
Janice was left gaping—she was not surprised by Zark's strength, since she had already seen Frank's godly powers in action.
She naturally would not be impressed, but it shocked him as Zark claimed to be as weak as an ant against Frank.
So how powerful could Frank be?
