Chapter 1581
"Don't bother telling them all this; they still fancy themselves the saviors of the world, thinking they've made
sgrand contribution to saving it. Honestly, these kids are just adorably naive."
Sophie chimed in, "I'll give you ten minutes to process everything I've just laid out. If you don't start talking by
then, I'll assyour brain's a lost cause. And if that's the case, I'll have to hand you over to this gentleman
here. Trust me, he won't be as patient or persuasive as | am. When your own flesh and blood is on the line, you'll
see whether your so-called savior turns up."
Sophie's glare and tone already gave Spencer the verdict.
The verdict was clear: they wouldn't.

The world is brimming with people in misery; a savior won't spare you a glance.
Choking back tears, Spencer began slowly, "About six months back... my family went under, my dad got sick,
and all those relatives and friends who used to be close to us disappeared. | was left with no choice but to work
at a nightclub to make ends meet." Sophie asked, "So you were overseas then?"
"Yeah, my family, the Starks, were overseas. We weren't celebrities or anything, but we were pretty well-off
entrepreneurs. My dad even sentto the best schools abroad. Then out of nowhere, he tellswe're
bankrupt."
Spencer's face twisted with bitterness at this point.
In the prof his life, fate hit him hard.
Spencer continued, "Later, my dad passed away, and we were left with nothing. Even our house had to be
auctioned to pay off debts. | couldn't even afford a coffin. In those dire and helpless times, Ms. Leticia stepped in.
She covered my dad's burial costs and gotinto Summerfield High. Ms. Leticia toldThe Silent Shadows
save people from suffering to build a world
without pain."
Jenna, listening, found it all too fantastical. She asked, "You really bought that? Just for that, you went all in for
The Silent Shadows?"
"Ms. Leticia said The Silent Shadows
were always into drug research. My dad had invested in them to create a medicine that would shield people from
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsickness. To support this cause, | started the Sunshine Club. Loads of students at school believed in The Silent
Shadows, thinking they were skind of world-saving church. This time... going after Ms. Sophie was because
Ms. Leticia said drug development needed a special ingredient, and that ingredient... was with Ms. Sophie."
As Spencer laid it all out, Sophie was piecing the puzzle together.
Colby, standing nearby, commented casually, "The Stark family overseas has always been among the top three
Western pharmaceutical manufacturers. Their sudden bankruptcy six months ago was because a batch of drugs
had trace elements way over the limit, making them harmful. Overnight, the factory shut down, and all the drugs
were snapped up by sunknown group. The Stark family has been in the medical field for three generations
without anything like this happening. This disaster might have been intentional."
Spencer was taken aback by this revelation.
Jenna added, "Kena is from Summerfield, and just as your family faced this turmoil, she happened to be abroad.
Doesn't that strike you as odd?" "Using your family's money to cover your dad's funeral expenses, Kena's got her
calculations down to a science. I'm honestly impressed."
