Hale tried to argue, "You could bring any guard to frame me; I won't accept this!"
"Heh heh, that's just perfect, I specialize in dealing with the uncooperative," Basil Jaak said with a sly grin.
Watching Basil Jaak grin menacingly, Hale suddenly felt a twinge of fear and quickly stepped back, stammering, "What... what do you want to do?"
"I don't want to do anything, I just want to..." Without warning, Basil Jaak kicked Hale, sending him sprawling to the ground.
Hale knelt on the ground, cradling his stomach in pain, and Tammy quickly crouched down beside him to help.
"Hale, are you okay?" Tammy asked with concern.
Unexpectedly, Hale pushed Tammy aside, looked up at Basil Jaak, and threatened, "You dare hit me?"
Basil Jaak laughed nonchalantly, "Which eye of yours saw me hit you? You clearly ran into my knee."
"You..." Hale almost fainted from anger on the spot.
Even Fiona Turner frowned upon hearing Basil Jaak's words, feeling that it was shamelessly said.
