Aria's mocking left the thugs incensed, though she was not afraid.
Having seen Frank fight, she knew for sure that these thugs would never win against Frank, and there were also his many connections! Aria was certainly eager to sink her claws into a man who was rich, handsome, and well-connected. If it was not for Winter's persistent refusal to tell her where they lived, she would be showing up on Frank's doorstep to seduce him.

Tuck was glaring coldly at Frank in turn. "Last warning, kid. Get out of here if you know what's good for you." Frank frowned and glanced at Aria beside him.
He was in a bad mood, and these pests had to keep bothering him.
But he was unable to avoid Aria, so he had to brace himself and chase away the thugs. "Find someone else if you're seeking trouble. It's in your best interest not to mess with me." "Fuck you!" Tuck promptly picked up an empty bottle and smashed it on Frank's head.
"Argh—!" Aria screamed, surprised that Tuck would really do that to Frank.
As Tuck threw away what remained of the bottle, he glared viciously at Frank. "Are you going to leave yet?!" His two boys appeared thrilled, with one whistling. "Nice one, boss!" "Are you alright, Frank?" Aria asked even as she scrambled to check Frank's head, but he stopped her.
It was just a bottle—it would not even scratch him.

I'm in a bad mood." "Tuck, | think this guy is bad news." One of Tuck's boys hurried to him worriedly when he saw Frank was unharmed.
"Shut up!" the other thug snapped. "Bad news? He can't even stand straight! Are you belittling Tuck here?" Tuck was actually puzzled since he knew better than anyone how violently he smashed that bottle on Frank's head.
Yet, not only was Frank not bleeding, but the way he appeared unfazed left him alarmed.
However, his boys' exchange and Aria's look of panic only encouraged him.
Picking up another bottle, he bellowed at Frank, "I'm in a worse mood than you are! You'd better leave now, or I'll make you suffer! Haven't you heard of me?! I'm Tuck Mahan—" Clang! Even before Tuck could finish, Frank picked up a bottle and smashed it on Tuck's head so quickly no one could have seen it.
Shards shot everywhere, while Tuck fell to his knees with a loud thud, stunned.
"What the... Argh!!!" he mumbled and screamed when he touched his head and felt blood, dropping to his bottom as he stared at then still-drunken Frank and shrieked, "You hit me! You fucking hit me!" Frank sighed.
