Chapter 2398 Divorce

“Are you sure you’re not mad, father? You want me to charm him?” Queenie asked hesitantly.

“Yes, and this is your final chance. You need to get to it now! If you’re even one step late, someone else is going to take him for herself,” the divine brigadier urged.

“What? But father, what’s so good about Levi? Why do you want to marry Queenie off to him? And on top of that, you want her to make the first move?” Edmund asked curiously.

“Alright, shut the f*ck up and get the f*ck out.” The divine brigadier chased his stupid son out. He did not want to hear Edmund’s voice anymore.

Edmund was flabbergasted. His father used to love him to bits, but he seemed to have changed a lot after he came back.

Queenie suggested, “Father, I know why you’re doing this. You want me to marry him because he has great genes, right? You want to get more geniuses out of him, but won’t this make us into a laughing stock? This is a stupid idea. If you really want more new blood, you can always ask Levi to get his wife pregnant again. You’ll get more geniuses, and I won’t have to marry him. That’s two birds with one stone.”

The divine brigadier let out a long sigh. The children aren’t the ultimate goal here. ”Queenie, you have no idea what’s at stake. Just listen to me for once, will you?” the divine brigadier advised her.

God, she has no idea about the whole situation. You’ll lose out on a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity if you refuse.

“I can go along with the plan, father. But at least give me a reason.” Queenie still needed a reason to convince her to go along with the plan.

The divine brigadier didn’t want to tell her everything, but he could give her a hint. “Why don’t you stay with him for a while. See how he is. You’ll know what makes him special soon enough. You’ll see why I want you to marry him then.”

“I’m sorry?”

“That’s your mission. Stay with him for a month or so. Not that hard, right? If you’re still unwilling to marry him, then we’ll put a stop to this plan.”

Finally, Queenie agreed to it, “Alright. I can do that.”

“Then go to him, now. And keep a close eye on him. You’ll find your answer soon enough.”

Queenie left The Cardinal Hall to see Levi, while Edmund was still out of the loop.

At the same time, Levi came back to the manor, but everyone there glared at him murderously the moment he showed up. The look in their eyes said, “How dare you show your face here?”

“I can explain—”

Before Levi could say anything, Aaron interrupted, “No. Just get divorced from Zoey. Times have changed, and none of you have to rely on each other now. Since you have a brighter future waiting for you, just sign the papers and go on your own way. We’ll give you the freedom you want.”

Everyone agreed, “Yeah! Sign the papers!”

Levi’s disciples and friends agreed. “Now that we have come to this, you should just sign the papers. We’ll respect your choice.”

…

Levi couldn’t believe that everyone wanted him to get a divorce. On top of that, all the people he trusted the most were also asking him to sign the papers.

“Now calm down. Let me explain. That old git wanted to marry Queenie off to me, but I never agreed to it. He lied to everyone, and Queenie would never agree to it. There’s nothing between us, I swear,” Levi explained, but it sounded flimsy to everyone.

Zoey laughed. “Do you think anyone would believe that? There’s no way the divine brigadier would lie. He wouldn’t stoop so low for someone like you. There’s no way he would. And tell me the truth. What did you do after you left?”

“I went to see that old git. And I beat him up to punish him. He’s barely hanging on now.”

The news came as a shocker to them, and everyone was understandably petrified.

“What? Did you beat up the divine brigadier? You’re joking!”

Nobody believed him, of course.

“You can take a look for yourself if you don’t believe me,” Levi persuaded.
