Marven proceeded to explain the complex familial and political relations within Salford Province.
Both Jasmine and Mindy, who were sitting in front of them overheard their conversation rather clearly.
It was pretty clear that they were eavesdropping when Marven mentioned the Schuyler family. Jasmine tilted her head the moment they reached this topic.
After a short while, they heard footsteps outside of the classroom.
Finally, the students who should have been here ages ago filed into the classroom.
Isabelle was the last person to enter the class.
Stella was the one who propped her up. Both of Isabelle’s cheeks were flushed red from all the slaps she had received. Besides that, she was crying vehemently.
As she was crying, she said, “I didn’t realize that it was him at that moment. I didn’t mean it when I attacked him.”
“There, there. Thank goodness, the faculty director and counselor came rushing in to stop them. They asked you to come to class first. If not, you’ll certainly suffer horrible consequences for picking a fight with them today!”
Stella looked gloomy when she tried to console her sobbing friend.
No doubt, the Moore family was too strong and powerful. As rich as Stella’s family was, they couldn’t compare with what the Moore family had under their possession.
Even Fabian’s family paled in comparison to the Moore family.
That was why everybody was standing by and watching the scene, not daring to intervene, even when Isabelle was slapped by Colton twice just now.
If the faculty director did not find some excuse to go and negotiate with Colton and asked Isabelle to attend the class first, God knows what would have happened to Isabelle under their hands.
Actually, the faculty director wanted Isabelle to seize that opportunity and make use of her connections.
Besides, the teacher knew that she would not be able to begin her lesson that day. After all, regular teachers did not dare to stand against the will of Mr. Moore.
After the teacher answered a call, the teacher did not return to the class again.
“How? What should we do now? I called my family just now. My mom cried as she told me that my dad has been taken away from his company by the people from the Moore family. They even slapped my dad several times. What should I do now?”
Isabelle finally realized what fear was.
