Fade glanced at Zarriah. He didn't know who he was and said, "Yes, I am. Who are you?"
There was a hint of pride in Zarriah's eyes as he replied, "I am Zarriah Soo, Momo is my cousin."
Fade immediately knew who he was. Zarriah was the young master of the Soo family. He was the son of Somoset and also one of the most important members of the Soo family.
Zarriah was said to be one of the most influential figures of his generation in South Bay City.
Hector from the Yao family and Zarriah were known as the South Bay Talents.
After knowing who Zarriah was, Fade nodded at him and said in a rather polite tone, "Young Master Soo, I have heard a lot about you from Momo, like how you are one of the South Bay Talents, and..."
Zarriah snorted and interrupted Fade, "I don't know you. Stop trying to act like you know me."
After that, he pointed at Luther and interrogated Fade, "Did you break his arm yesterday?"
Fade frowned at Zarriah's condescending attitude. He was slightly annoyed but Zarriah was still Momo's cousin after all. He decided to just tolerate it and answered, "Yes, I did." "How dare you!" Zarriah roared and glared at Fade, "I command you to apologize to him right this instant!"
Luther gritted his teeth in response, "That's not all. I want you to kneel and beg for forgiveness. Then, I'm going to break both of your arms for revenge."
Fade's eyes sunk when he heard that. He looked at Luther and snorted, but didn't move a muscle.
Zarriah saw that and growled, "What are you doing? Get down on your knees and apologize to Luther, now!"
Fade suppressed the anger in his heart as he looked at Zarriah, "Young Master Soo, before you make me apologize, are you sure you know the events that transpired yesterday? Who do you think was at fault?"
"Whose fault was it?" Zarriah laughed, "That is not necessary for me to know. Luther is from East Deer Academy and a distinguished guest of the Soo family. He is also my friend."
"It doesn't matter whose fault it was. You have to apologize for hitting Luther, no matter who started it," Zarriah said.
Fade was disappointed. He sighed, "I wanted to settle this like civilized men just because you're Momo’s cousin. But that seems impossible now." "Don't expect me to apologize," Fade then turned around and walked to his table.
At the dinner table, Lauren and the others were drawn to the argument. They were shocked to see what happened.
"That is Zarriah Soo from the Soo family and Luther Chee from East Deer Academy. What’s going on?"
"They seem to be in an argument with Mr. Chen. What do we do?"
"I think we should just stay out of their way."
At that point, Lauren said firmly, "Don’t forget who Mr. Chen is. Luther and Zarriah are no more than pitiful ants in front of him."
Hearing that, the girls stood up and welcomed Fade, "Mr. Chen, you’re back. Are you okay?"
Fade said lightly, "I'm fine, let's eat."
Then, he sat down and was about to eat.
At that moment, Zarriah approached Fade, his eyes were filled with rage. He placed his hands on Fade's shoulder and growled, "I told you to kneel and apologize to Luther, did you hear me?"
