In the entire banquet hall, Frank was the only one who did not seem to care.
And considering what Frank had told him in the men's room earlier, Corey could not stop himself from intervening.
"Oh, he actually showed some spine." Frank was laughing in his head.
Despite being busy eating, he was actually paying attention to Vicky's situation.
In fact, he had already projected his pure vigor around Vicky with Five-Peat Archaeus. If Hubert's bodyguards had touched her earlier, things would have gone very badly for them.
If anything, Frank would be embarrassing himself if he did nothing after Vicky announced to everyone that he was her personal bodyguard.
Naturally, Corey was far from reaching Birthright rank and would never know what Frank did. Instead, he simply presumed that Frank was absolutely terrified of Hubert and kept eating to hide his panic.
While Corey was himself afraid of Hubert's family connections too, he should show more strength and a sense of responsibility around Vicky now that things had come to this.
Bracing himself as he wheels on Hubert, he growled, "Mr. Sorano, I'm Corey Wallace. If you refuse Ms. Turnbull and insist on taking Kiki away, I suggest you send your people to discuss the matter with the Turnbulls instead of getting violent or you'd be disturbing the peace between your families."
"Oh… you really can talk out of your ass, huh?!" Hubert was gnashing his teeth even as he pointed at Corey and snapped, "Who the hell do you think you are, telling me what to do?! What I say goes, and that is all there is to it! Get out of here or I'll kill you!"
Seeing that Hubert was not backing down at all, Corey was all too aware that his own family connections were nothing compared to the Soranos'.
However, he was not about to embarrass himself in front of the love of his life and certainly not lose to Frank—he would show Frank what a true man was!
Stepping forward, Corey said coolly, "Ms. Turnbull is Titus Lionheart's fiance, so you'd better calm down, Mr. Sorano. There's always a better way."
