As David was exchanging pleasantries with the Concord family, Erwin‘s voice came from the black–
horned ship.
“David, Dance Fairy, we don‘t want to be your enemy. Even though you lose some of your family
members, they are not your direct descendants but some subordinates and administrators. On the
other hand, we have lost the head of a younger generation. Let‘s not look into this and let bygones be
bygónes. What do you think? From now on, we will get along just like back then on Blue Star. We will
pay back ten times the assets you sold at a meager price. What do you two think about this?”
Clearly, Erwin was trying to reconcile with the Concord family after he said this. The Concord family
members below were crying tears of joy. They had experienced hell and heaven. Just now, their lives
were being threatened, and they might have been killed at any second. In a blink of an eye, the Gatsby
family apologized and wanted to pay back their loss ten folds.
This changed because of the young man Mia from the Concord family brought back. However,
everyone understood that the young man had a compelling identity, and that was why the Gatsby
family and the big shot behind the Gatsby family did not dare to provoke him.
Hence, they chose to sue for peace.
The Concord family members at the scene looked at David.
They had waited for this day. Miss Mia lived up to her expectations and finally found a strong backer.
Their family was about to take off.
Truman, his brothers, and Mia looked at David.
The brothers never expected the Gatsby family to ask for a truce voluntarily and agreed to pay back the
Concord family‘s losses ten folds.
However, this had actually happened.
Even so, Truman did not dare to agree too quickly. Instead, he let David decide for him.
They would not say anything, no matter what David decided.
Of course, Mia refused to settle so easily.
If she did not make it back in time or if she was a little late, her family would be doomed.
She still could not calm down until now.
Mia did not know how she would cope if her family, her siblings with whom she grew up together, and
her parents were gone. She might have been willing to anything in order to avenge her family.
“Let bygones be bygones? Get along? What a nice plan you have, but have you ever thought that if
we‘re slightly late, what would have happened to the Concord family? How many of them would be left?
Would you want to reconcile so easily if you were in their shoes?” David asked with a cold smirk.
“David, we were instructed by others to do this, and we don‘t have a grudge against the Concord
family. You know Lord Lutgen‘s identity and status. We couldn‘t afford to fight back, so we could only
listen to him. If we angered him, we wouldn‘t be able to withstand his rage, ” Erwin explained.
Now that things had come to this point, Erwin had no choice but to name the person behind him just so
his family could survive.
Even if he only said Lord Lutgen and did not mention who, everyone on the scene could tell who it was.
It was one of the people David guessed just now: Burke Lutgen.
When Mia heard this name, a fire filled her chest.
She did not expect it to be Burke.
She thought it was Fergus. After all, David crippled Fergus, and his life was over. So, he must have
been unwilling and wanted to seek revenge. At the end of the day, she was the reason for this.
If it were Fergus, Mia would still be able to accept it. However, it turned out to be Burke, whom she did
not have a grudge with.
