[Chapter 124]
"What?"
"What?"
"What?"
Everyone who had been waiting for a dramatic showdown was stunned.
This included Luna, who was so stunned that she froze.
Who was Howard Jackson?
President of the SRU student council!
The most handsome guy in SRU!
Moreover, he was rumored to have come from a scarily powerful family.
People like Leo, whose fortune came from new money, were not even worthy of cleaning his shoes for him.
In SRU, even the school had to pay attention to what he said.
Yet, a person like him had to bow down and apologize to David?
What was David's identity?
Never mind the fact that Leo had knelt before him. Even a famous person like Howard could not afford to offend him!
It was a little scary if you thought about it!
Since when had there been someone so powerful in South River University?
Luna was astonished as well!
After all, Howard was one of Zachary's men.
Zachary Quinn, one of the eight great fighters in the T faction, was still a powerful person even if he were hiding in Capital City now.
Naturally, Howard was no ordinary person himself if Zachary agreed to take him under his wing after meeting him.
In the years that Zachary had sent him to keep watch over her, he had never treated anyone except Zachary with such respect.
In that case, did that mean that person standing before them was on the same level as Zachary?
Luna was actually not too interested in the internal happenings of T faction. If not, she would have heard that Zachary had fled River City with his tail between his legs not long ago.
If she connected that to the image before her now, she would have managed to deduce that David was the person who had banished Zachary.
The Shoron family was a hidden aristocratic family. If they had any plans of publicizing themselves, they would need to work with a powerful, well-established family. Thus, they had set their eyes on the Quinn family, based in Capital City.
The Quinn family had also recently encountered difficulties in their developments and was in dire need of foreign aid. Therefore, the two parties hit it off immediately
Marriage was the best way of ensuring the unity of their collaboration, which was why both families were interested in having Luna and Zachary become a couple and maintain their strong partnership.
Luna was extremely against being married off for benefits. However, she had no choice, as she was the only daughter of the family. She was not given the liberty of choice and could only accept what her family arranged for her.
Zahary had become smitten with Luna the very first time they met, and coupled with efforts from both families, had decided that Luna was his wife.
Thankfully, Luna was still young. She then chose to attend university in River City so she could avoid Zachary.
She never thought he would send someone over to spy on her!
On the other hand, David had not expected Howard to bow to him and apologize.
He had thought that Howard would hit him! David even prepared himself so he could keep his strength under control and avoid injuring Howard too gravely.
After all, between them, one was a member of the SCC while the other was a member of T faction. In a way, they could be considered enemies, and he had just beaten up his master a couple of days ago.
He had thought that even if Howard did not dare hit him, he would at the very least speak to him harshly, wouldn't he? Wasn't this how things always went down in television shows?
Since when would the enemies approach each other and bow while apologizing?
How was he supposed to respond to that?
To be honest, it was because David had underestimated himself. He always thought that he was not powerful enough, but in reality, the power he had just demonstrated was enough to terrify plenty of people.
