[Chapter 122]
Now that everyone had gathered around, David had no choice but to stand.
"Mr. Liddell, I was hoping that you could help me plead to the Luther family to show some mercy and let m y family go, if that's alright?" Leo said.
"The Luther family is attacking you because you offended Sandy. What does that have to do with me? Besides, are we close? Why should I help you?" David asked in reply.
"…" Leo had no idea how to respond to David's questions.
Were they close?
He had stolen David's girlfriend from him, humiliated David, caused David to vomit blood, and even posted the pictures onto the campus network and group chats, making David the butt of the faculty's jokes.
How could they be close?
It would be more accurate to say they were sworn enemies.
Sarah gazed at David. He seemed to have turned into an entirely new person ever since they broke up.
In the past, if anyone were to ask who knew David the best, she would definitely be that person. However, she now realized that she did not know David at all.
How could a person's personality have changed so quickly?
Also, David had the means to help Leo's family? To the point where Leo was willing to kneel and apologize to him?
Had he been keeping it a secret all this while?
Had he been putting their relationship to the test all this while?
Rumor was that some trust fund babies enjoyed disguising themselves as poor guys when searching for true love.
If that was the case!
Then, what had she done?
Had she given up on an extremely well-off trust fund baby who had been keeping his true identity a secret over several pieces of designer clothing and purses?
Moreover, this super-rich guy had loved, taken care of, accommodated, and forgiven her!
In that instant, Sarah felt her mind go blank!
She had lost a forest for a tree.
Leo grabbed Sarah, standing beside him, and pulled her back to reality.
"David! I…" Sarah was just about to speak when David interrupted her.
"Sarah, are you trying to help his family plead for mercy as well?" David asked as he stared at Sarah.
"David, I hope that you can help Leo!" Sarah said after mustering up her courage.
She had no choice left.
David had already left her!
If she did not hold on to this last straw, she would be left with absolutely nothing.
"You hope? On what grounds are you basing your hopes? As my ex-girlfriend? As my high school classmate? Or as Leo's current girlfriend?" David asked mockingly.
It was then that everyone in the audience understood what was going on.
David was the person who had been so angry that he vomited blood after Leo stole his girlfriend from him, and was also the person that Leo had taken pictures of and posted onto the campus network and group chats.
How many days had it been since then?
Now, Leo was kneeling before David?
Begging him for help?
How had the tables turned so quickly? Not even televised dramas would dare do this!
