Emily was unhappy about it but didn't comment further. After all, Wilhelmina and Jack never kept in touch. Plus, Jack had a girlfriend now, so Emily didn't see Wilhelmina in the same light as she used to.
All she wanted was for Jack to win back a shred of pride for the Lycan family.
Jack was unbothered about Wilhelmina because he was meeting a friend with Feena today. Last night, Feena had mentioned that this high-profile person held high prestige in Tarthy City.
Not only did Peter Trevell and Aaron Roe—sons of two of the four most prestigious families in Tarthy City—hold this man in high regard, but Jack had also quietly learned that this impressive figure shared a close relationship with Winona Cadwallader, the daughter of Gerard, an aristocrat from Boleria and the frontrunner of Tarthy City's mayoral race.
Rumor had it that Winona was secretly interested in him romantically, and that he might very well become Gerard's son-in-law. His influence was even said to surpass Elias, the future head of the Carpenter family, the best of the four prestigious families.
Jack couldn't help but grow curious about who this remarkable young man was. He had to be someone extraordinary to command such prestige in Tarthy City.
What piqued Jack's curiosity even more was that he was rumored to be a senior at Alnewgo University.
Yet, what Jack never could have foreseen was that the man who now shook Tarthy City to its core was not only a graduate of Alnewgo University, but someone he knew—someone he hated, Patrick Hamilton.
