John kept looking at the table.
Leon stood quietly in front of him.
"Why would Aster Core support Adam?" John asked.
john though 'That too, an unknown student who has just been expelled from the university, what will they get by saving Adam.
Is there any other reason, does Adam have some rich successor whom we do not know who helped him through this company.'
Leon did not answer.
He knew the question was not really for him.
John's gaze stayed low.
'A company doesn't move like this for an unknown student.' John thought. 'There has to be a reason.'
Adam had been weak before. He had entered the college through marks and a scholarship. His family had no city power and no clean way to reach a company that was rising this fast.
That meant Aster Core was not the real answer.
'It isn't the company.' John thought. 'Someone inside the company helped him.'
He looked up at Leon.
"Who owns it?"
