Striding up to Bruce, Frank demanded bluntly, “Others might not see it, but you probably sensed that someone was helping you cheat, no?”

As it turned out, Bruce had integrity and nodded. “You’re right sir. I did feel it happened but chose to ignore it because I wanted to win.”

Frank laughed. “At least you’re honest! Also, I heard what you said, and that alone proves your loyalty, which is why I’ll stay my hand. However, you still deserve to be punished, or I’d have to suffer more cheaters, and I’m not sure I want that.”

With those words, he punched Bruce on the shoulder, sending him flying before crashing on the ground, unconscious.

Others hurried to his side, and seeing that his left sleeve was gone and revealing his bruised skin, they asked tentatively, “Is he going to be alright, sir?”

“Don’t worry. I know full well what broken bones can lead to, so I didn’t really hurt him aside from superficially.”

As he spoke, Frank strode through the crowd, barking, “Are you going to give yourself up, or should I drag you out?”
