Chapter 314 Pulling Strings Wynter wrapped her arms around Zach in a gentle embrace. "Don't worry about me. Keep an eye on that waist and don't go spraining it." Zach, who normally wielded a fiery temper, now returned Wynter's embrace like a child bidding goodbye to a playground friend.
"You can always go to the Kellers if you run into trouble. I'm sure they won't mind helping out Jackson's favorite disciple, to say nothing of the favor you did for them," he said. "Without you, Lucas wouldn't have made any headway in Southdale.
"Remember, you'll always have a place here in Harmony Community. I don't care who your parents are, but if they ever make you upset, just know we won't stand for it." "Mr. Zurich is right. We'll march into Kingbourne if we have to," an elderly gentleman piped up. He added a little hesitantly, "Nothing can scare us." Zach glared at him. "Oh, quiet you. You were the reason Wynter was wrongfully brought into custody." "I... I..." the gentleman stammered.
Wynter laughed. "It's not Mr. Gustavo's fault. Speople are just good at hiding their true colors." "Not his fault? Bah! He just wanted to relive his glory days and have a say in everything. If this were the past, he'd have been tried for abuse of power!" Zach snapped.

Not that he could blthem. Jerwas his mentee, and the very smentee allowed Wynter to be wrongfully arrested and interrogated to protect a bunch of criminals.
Pierre was eager to make amends. "Wynter, if you don't feel like asking the Kellers for help, you can always reach out to my connections there. I've given them a heads-up, and they're prepared to help you at a moment's notice." "Thank you, Mr. Gustavo," Wynter said gratefully, smiling. She knew Chapter 314 Pulling String- Pierre must have had quite a formidable history if he had connections and any sort of power in Kingbourne Pierre grinned at her affably.
Zach turned to Wynter and reminded sternly, "Don't fall behind on your studies, Wynter. My former students in Kingbourne will lend you a helping hand whenever you need it. Since you're much younger than them, I doubt they'd turn you down if you ask for help." "All right, Mr. Zurich."

He couldn't help the tears that pricked his eyes. "Go. Be brave and hold your head up high. You've got family here rooting for you." Most of the folks in Harmony Community did not have children of their own, and they had long ago seen Wynter as their child.
