Chapter - 253

Hades nodded. “You’re right! He’s such an arrogant young man!”

“A young man like him shouldn’t have gotten full of himself!”

“Forget about Evan! Franky is, after all, the descendant of the Forrest Family. Zeke can’t possibly go against the Forrest Family on his own, right?”

“Zeke might have been able to get rid of T-Rex, but he might not be a match for the Forrest Family.”

“After all, T-Rex’s influence was limited to the underworld. On the other hand, the Forrest Family’s influence reigns over the upper echelon and the underworld.”

“Sigh… It seems like I’ve overestimated Zeke’s capability.”

Eclipse lost himself in his thoughts for quite some time before he told Hades, “If Zeke is cornered by the Forrest Family, are you going to save him?”

Hades shook his head. “If he can’t handle the Forrest Family, he doesn’t qualify as a prodigy, right?”

“If that’s the case, he’s not worthy of our time either. Let’s forget about him.”

Eclipse lowered his head and took a sip of tea quietly.

In the meantime, at Oakheart City’s hospital.

Finally, Franky had been saved at the eleventh hour after a series of operations.

The hefty co-developer along with other co-developers of the Love in a Fallen City project had spent a night at the hospital while waiting for his operations to end.

After all, they had to depend on Franky to get rid of the trouble in store for them.

If Franky refused to help them, they wouldn’t be able to collect their receivables. Instead, they might have to bear the consequences of their actions as Zeke would be coming after them through legal means.

Everyone rushed into Franky’s ward after he regained consciousness. They were trying to flatter him and win him over.

“Mr. Forrest, you’re finally awake!”

“We’ve been by your side the entire night!”

“Don’t worry, Mr. Forrest! We’ve gotten the best doctor in Oakheart City to carry out the operation for you! We’re certain there won’t be any sequelae.”

“W-Water…”

The hefty co-developer immediately helped Franky up and handed him a glass of water.

However, Franky felt an excruciating sensation coming from his ass the moment he tried to move.

Consequently, he shrieked at the pain he felt. Franky was on the verge of losing his cool.

F***! This is so embarrassing! Of all the places in my body, my ass just had to the one to get hurt.

He asked angrily, “Did you guys get in touch with my sister and my brother-in-law?”

“That damned Zeke! I want my sister and my brother-in-law to torment him in return!”

The hefty co-developer replied, “We’ve already received a call from Mrs. Schneider! She will be here soon!”

“I think she’ll show up anytime soon!”

Someone walked into the ward the moment the hefty co-developer finished his sentence.

An ostentatious looking and wealthy woman made her way into the ward.

She was none other than Franky’s sister and Evan’s wife, Florence Forrest.

Although Florence was in her mid-forties, she still looked like a charming woman in her mid-thirties. She did a great job in maintaining her look and dolling herself up.

She shouted anxiously the moment she entered the ward, “Franky! How are you? I’m here to visit you!”

Everyone immediately made way for Florence.

The woman rushed over to Franky’s side and saw how miserable he was. Florence could barely keep her cool and asked, “Franky! What happened to you?”

“Who’s the one behind this? Tell me! I’ll definitely avenge you today!”

Franky replied in a weak tone, “l-It… Was… Zeke and Lacey!”

“l… I had merely taken their seat, yet they decided to beat me up instead.”

“Florence, they were the ones who rushed me to the hospital. If it weren’t because of them, I’m afraid you wouldn’t have gotten to see me anymore.”

Franky shed a few drops of tears as he finished his sentence.

Florence was even more heartbroken because of Franky’s tears. “Zeke! Lacey! Those insolent fools!”

“Don’t worry, Franky! I’ll return them the favour a hundred times harsher!”

It soon turned into a witch hunt session targeted at Zeke.

“Hmph! Zeke had gotten too full of himself back then! He actually beat Mr. Forrest up because of a = minor conflict they had.”

“We warned him! We told him Mr. Forrest’s your brother, but Zeke ignored our words. He didn’t bother to hold back at all! It seemed like he had no intention to respect you, Mrs. Schneider.”
