[Chapter 127]
David left.
Luna remained standing on the same spot with a charming smile spread out across her slightly astonished face.
It seemed that she would have to rely on David to get rid of her ill-fated destiny which her family had set out for her.
However, did she want only to change the destiny that her family had arranged for her?
Perhaps she could strive for it? At the thought of this, Luna started breathing a little rapidly.
How many years had it been? She had long given up on such unrealistic ideas.
She did not even resist when her family arranged her marriage. She felt reluctant and at the same time wanted to leave the family, to break away from the trauma brought to her by the man from her childhood.
At this critical moment, when she was about to graduate and fulfill the arranged marriage, she met David.
David's abrupt outburst of strength had suffocated her. She had never felt such a strong aura even from her family's elders.
This was an absolute genius!
A phrase came to mind.
Though they were peers, the disparity between their abilities was insurmountable. David was definitely a successor nurtured by a supreme power.
She might be the second-degree successor of the Shorons, but with the help of a powerful first-degree successor, she could take a chance.
"You think you won, Wendy Shoron? Not necessarily! I will prepare a massive gift for you!" Luna silently vowed in her heart.
Another two days passed.
David had become the martial arts club's vice president.
Though he continued to stay away from Luna.
He knew Luna's intentions.
She wanted to use him to fight against Zachary. He was fine with that since they were enemies anyway and he might retaliate against him one day.
He accepted the vice president role merely out of a trace of guilt in his heart. Although Luna attacked him first, she had no intention of harming him.
It was true that he nearly killed her because he failed to control his strength.
It was hard for a socially well-behaved young man like him to accept the fact that he had killed someone.
Therefore, he treated the vice president role as an apology! As for the request, it would depend on his mood whether he agreed to do it or not.
On this day, David received a call from Hugh. An SCC core member wanted to meet him.
They had already arrived at the Golden Leaf Hotel.
David took the afternoon off and went to the Golden Leaf Hotel.
He arrived outside of the top-notch presidential suite where Hugh stayed in the Golden Leaf Hotel.
Knock! Knock!
David knocked twice.
Hugh opened the door in no time.
"David! Come in!" Hugh politely said.
He had no choice but to be polite. David was currently famous in all of SCC. Besides, David was considered an esteemed figure to him.
Inviting David into the SCC was the best choice he had ever made.
It was a steppingstone for him to inherit the Greenes in the future.
"How very kind of you, Hugh!" David said.
He then entered the room.
A man was sitting on the sofa.
When he saw David walking in, he got up to greet him.
"I've heard a lot about you, David! My name's Bill Fisher, SCC core member. I'm best friends with Hugh. I held some of the shares when you first bought Golden Leaf Hotel." Bill said with a smile.
He was sizing David up while he was at it.
Young!
Too young!
He was shocked that the young man before his eyes was actually capable of throwing Zachary out of River City.
Moreover, Zachary had yet to make a move after the embarrassing ordeal, and that was enough to show just how terrifying this young man was. "You're too kind, Mr. Fisher!"
