Strongest Superhuman System

Chapter 91: Guardian Angel

Everyone watched in stunned silence as the man wrote out a check for fifty million dollars like it was nothing! He signed the check and stood up from his seat while fixing his jacket.

"In the event that the PTA should decide that the savior of this city deserves to be treated like a criminal, then that check should be more than enough to provide sustenance for the school for the next five years.

I want to remind all of you that Mark Vanitas possessed his powers long before we found out about it and there have been no incidents of harm or damage reported from the students against him, and I believe that there will be nothing of such even in the future. Mark Vanitas is under my protection and anyone that tries to go against his peaceful life in this school will be buried under my influence.

And trust me,"

His col gaze swept over everyone in the room

"You do not want to challenge me in this country."

The man only said this much, and he made sure that Linda got this message loud and clear before he turned and began to walk out of the room. The headmaster collected the check that was already signed and he looked at it in awe for a moment with a small smile on his face. He knew it was a good idea to allow that man to come to this meeting.

The headmaster was not even sure what the man's name was at first, but once he heard who the man claimed to be and did some research of his own, there was no need to deny his access to this meeting.

That man was the acting president of Vanitas Motors and he was Mark Vanitas' godfather.

"Well, then, I believe there is nothing more to discuss in this meeting…"

"But..."

"I said..."

The headmaster's piercing gaze settled on Linda and he immediately made her shut up.

"...I believe there is nothing more to discuss in this meeting."

The headmaster looked around the table and he saw smiles and frowns around the room. Linda looked like she wanted to strangle something and the headmaster knew that this was not the last time he would be hearing from her concerning this matter. She would probably try to take this to a larger stage, but there was nothing to fear.

As long as they had someone like Mark's godfather on their side, then they would be able to scale through any legal hoops. Once he didn't hear any more comments, he stood up.

"Then the meeting is adjourned. In final judgment, I believe Mark Vanita is an indispensable part of this school and one of the greatest heroes this city has ever seen. I am appalled that there are people who wish for his removal from our grateful school, and I will not hear of this matter anymore. Mark Vanitas will not be expelled from the school, and that is final."

…

"Argh! Fucking old bastards!! Fuck!"

A hand slammed into a steering wheel as someone raged in anger inside of their car. Anyone who passed the car would immediately walk away in fear and confusion once they saw the woman screaming silently through the closed window, but the woman didn't care as she continued to rage in anger!

Once she was finished raging, she breathed heavily and sighed in fury as she placed her head on the steering wheel for some time.

Ring~! Ring~! Ring~!

The sound of her phone ringing immediately made her turn to her dashboard, and she groaned in annoyance once she saw who was calling. How did they know that they were done with the meeting already!? They just finished it a few minutes ago!

She immediately tried to get herself back under control as she fixed up her hair and touched her clothes to make sure they were in a proper state before she clicked on the dashboard answering machine as a man's face came into view. She smiled at the man.

"Mr. Colton. It's a pleasure –"

"Cut the bullshit, Linda. You failed, didn't you?"

Linda immediately bit the inside of her mouth as she heard him say this, and her silence was more than enough for the man to conclude that he was right. He narrowed his eyes at her and spoke up again.

"You understand that this invalidates our deal. You will get nothing from me if Mark Vanitas returns to that school."

"I understand that, Mr. Colton. I promised to get him out of the school, and that is exactly what I will do. Please, just give me a few more days. I won't fail you."

"You better not."

The call ended in the next moment, and Linda screamed in outrage and slammed her hand into the steering wheel again as she felt another surge of anger fill her body! Who the fuck does this bastard think he is!? Just because he promised her some money, he thinks he can talk to her like she is some underling!? She is fucking Linda! She is the queen of this damn city!

If not for the fact that she was between husbands right now, would she even need his money at all!? She would get married again soon and show him what it meant to go against her! She would bury him under her heel for this embarrassment!

Linda tried her best to get her emotions under control, and she had to wait a few minutes before she could think clearly again. Her mind immediately went towards that mysterious man who just gave out fifty million dollars like it was a joke, and she wondered who the hell that could be! He was not someone that she recognized from this school, and she knew everyone who came for the PTA meetings.

What sort of relationship did he have with Mark that would make him give out that much money just to keep Mark in this school!?

Linda knew that if not for that man, then her plan would have worked and she would be getting her payment from the Coltons by now. She would have to find out who that man is and figure out how to deal with him first before she can deal with Mark. If not, then she would be blocked at every point by that man, and she would get nothing from the Coltons.

Linda was currently between husbands and she was already running low on money since she was a very extravagant spender. She never needed to learn how to save money since she was always married to a rich man, so now that she was alone, she was burning through her money like it was firewood!

The Coltons promised her a check of ten million if she managed to get Mark expelled from the school, and she needed that money badly enough that she was willing to do anything to get it!

Since the headmaster would not meet her demands, it was time for her to use her influence.
