Gina leapt up and grabbed Frank too. "Frank! If you'd really taken Mr. Droitner's Bloodcrane Spiritbloom, I don't mind dying here fighting you! I'll show everyone your true colors now!"

Then, she started shouting at the top of her lungs in every direction. "Everyone, help! We caught a thief here. He stole Helen's stuff but refuses to admit it! He thinks he's above the law just because he can hold himself in a fight! He's bullying us..." Frank only got further frustrated as bystanders around the karaoke box stopped to look.

"Enough!" he bellowed, unleashing a burst of vigor that knocked Gina and Helen away.

There was a look of guilt in his eyes when he saw Helen drop on the floor, but he soon scowled angrily. "Why can't you believe me, Helen? Am I a despicable thief in your eyes?!"

While Helen stayed limp on the floor in silence, Huub rushed to her side while pointing at Frank and snapping, "See? He can't defend himself, and that's why he's getting violent! Go on, do it! I'm not afraid of you-no one gets to trample on Droitner Inc.!" Then, turning to Helen, he assured her, "Don't worry. As long as I'm around, that bastard doesn't get to lay a finger on you!"

"Frank Lawrence!"

On the other hand, Gina remained on the floor like a fishwife, pointing at Frank and snapping, "You're not just a thief who stole Mr. Droitner's treasure, but you even hurt me and my daughter! Even animals are better than you!"

Frank noticed the bystanders around them looking at him and shaking their heads in disapproval and felt his vein throbbing in his temples. "Do you not understand what I'm saying, Gina?! I stole nothing! Huub Droitner brought a fake in the first place! That was when Helen, still on the floor, finally said, "Frank... Just go."
