"Did you forget the fight I had with Seth in Perthter City? They were the ones who helped me."
That remark was like a splash of cold water. Something clicked in Feena's mind, and she finally remembered who Charlotte was. "I remember now! She was the lady with the afro."
However, she still had questions. "Then, how did you know them?"
She remembered how Jack instructed Zane and Neil to beat Seth up and began questioning how Jack met these upperclassmen. They even treated him with so much respect.
After all, Feena knew about Jack's background from the inside out. Compared to Zane and Charlotte, who came from influential families, Jack was average at best.
It was mind-boggling for anyone to understand how two people from different worlds could become so close to each other.
Jack casually replied, "It's nothing. We coincidentally met at an internet café back then. We played a few rounds of games and even made a bet. They lost, so they treated me like a big brother to them."
Then, he explained everything that happened after that. Feena finally understood and said, "So, it is how it turned out to be."
After Feena heard Jack's explanation, she finally understood the ins and outs of the matter.
However, an untraceable dim glint flickered in Feena's gentle eyes.
Jack's relationship with them turned out to be a fleeting acquaintance.
She initially thought Jack and Zane had a special relationship, that they admired each other for their talent. However, reality told her that she misread their relationship.
It turned out their relationship was this shallow.
On the other hand, Feena assumed that Charlotte was willing to help Jack because of her disgust toward Jonathan rather than her admiration for Jack's talent.
