Chapter 633
The Protector levi garrison
Just how shameless is this guy? How dare you claim all the merit? The God of War was the one responsible for it, and it has nothing to do with you! Besides, what makes you think you can get Hades to work for you? L Nation might be a small country, but he is still a God of War!
âHuh? So it really is you, Landyn? Thank you so much!â replied Zoey with a smile.
âI wasnât going to tell you anything, but you guessed it all,â said Landyn as he grinned.
Landyn shamelessly admitted to it because he didnât see any issue arising from his lies.
All he had to do was get someone to contact Hades and get the guy under his payroll.
âThank you for rescuing me and my family while we were in grave danger,â said Zoey appreciatively.
âI will keep you safe for the rest of your life,â promised Landyn before he added, âAlright, Iâll take my leave now so I donât disrupt you working.â
Landyn could tell that Zoey felt awkward, so he left immediately.
After all, he was a smart man, and he knew how to take advantage without overstepping.
After leaving Oriental Star Group.
One subordinate asked, âGiven your background, you can have any woman you want, so why her? Zoey Lopez seems pretty ordinary.â
âItâs true. There are tons of women just like her out there,â chimed in another subordinate.
Landyn replied with a smile, âTo tell you boys the truth, I have had hundreds of women, and no one had ever rejected my advances before. She was the first, and I feel like she is special. There is no reason I canât conquer that woman.â
The others grinned mischievously. They finally understood what Landyn was aiming for.
âBesides, grandpa is gravely ill, and the fortune teller said that I can repel all bad luck if I marry that woman. Only then would grandpaâs illness be cured. The wedding would also bring good fortune to the Gates family. In short, she is nothing but a tool to bring good luck and cure grandpa. It just so happens that I want to conquer her as well, so thereâs that. Why else would I marry a divorcee?â informed Landyn as he smiled.
Everyone instantly understood that marrying Zoey was primarily to bring good fortune.
That night.
Everyone was smiling when Zoey got home, and that got Zoey suspicious.
âZoey, I found a great suitor for you,â informed Meredith with a smile.
âWhat?â blurted Zoey, who was stunned.
âZoey, this suitor is really something else. His grandfather is the president of the South Hampton Chamber of Commerce, his father is the head of the New Alliance Bank in Erudia, and his mother is the president of the Association of Foreign Enterprises.
To top it off, his maternal grandfather is also royalty in a foreign country! His family owns hundreds of banks, and anyone who wanted to do business in South Hampton would need his familyâs permission first,â informed Jennie.
It sounded exaggerated, but it was true.
âGiven his family background, the actual guy doesnât seem so important, but Zoey, he is amazing as well! He owns over a dozen racecar clubs and about ten electronic companies. His influence is everywhere! He is also tall, handsome, and is a mixed-blood. He basically doesnât have any shortcomings.â
Everyone had praised Landyn so much that it sounded like he was an angel from heaven.
Realization dawned on Zoey soon after.
Theyâre probably talking about Landyn.
âOh, and you actually know this guy, Zoey,â added Jennie.
That confirmed Zoeyâs suspicion.
âThank you for all the effort you put in, grandma, but I wonât be dealing with my personal life at the moment. I have my eyes set on my career, and this is a crucial moment, so I donât want anyone to distract me,â replied Zoey politely.
âHahahaâ¦â
Meredith laughed aloud.
âZoey, if this is just an ordinary guy like Levi Garrison, I definitely wouldnât let him get in the way of your career. However, we are talking about the heir of the Gates family! Marrying him would not negatively affect your career. In fact, it would give your career a tremendous boost!â
The others chimed in as well. âItâs true. All it takes is one word from him, and you will be raised to the top.â
âIâve also looked into the matter and know that he used to court you. He has been in love with you this entire time, Zoey,â said Jennie as she grinned.
Meredith also insisted, âZoey, this wedding must happen, and I will be planning for it.â
