Dauntless God Of War novel Chapter 138


Turning around, Harold asked icily, “Mr. Simmons, are you sure Mr. Xanthos came here to offer Mr. Zeller an apology because of your father?”

Harold had originally come to call off their engagement. Megan seemed interested in Jacob, so he was pleased that things were going his way. He wouldn't feel guilty to call off their engagement if she was in love with another man.

However, there seemed to be a flaw in Jacob's character.

Harold thought, Mr. Zeller treats my family well, so I must do something to help Megan.

“Harold, what do you mean? You caused trouble for our family, and Jacob resolved it. Don't tell me you're getting jealous. You're nothing but an ingrate. Leave this instant! Our family doesn't welcome you,” Megan sneered at him.

She was obviously upset that Harold had the guts to question Jacob.

With that, she shoved Harold out of the door.

Glen felt bad for him, but he chose to believe Jacob's lie, just like everyone else.

They thought that the Simmons family had a powerful relative, or someone like that, who had helped them teach Thiago a lesson and rid them of a ticking time bomb.

He chose to prioritize the big picture and pretended not to have noticed his daughter's actions. I'm sorry, Harold.

“Megan, I'm not saying you can't get a boyfriend. In fact, I support you wholeheartedly, but I'm against you dating Jacob. He is a shady man!” Harold tried to persuade Megan to change her mind after she pushed him out.

“You're the shady man! Your entire family is shady! Leave right this instant! I don't want to see you ever again!” Megan screamed angrily.

Enraged at how Harold had spoken ill of Jacob, she grabbed a rock and was about to toss it at Harold.

At once, Harold retreated in fear. Seeing his reaction, Megan slammed the door shut without hesitation.

“Megan, open the door! I still have the monetary gift for the baby!” Harold hollered outside the house.

“That's not necessary. You can keep it. The Zeller family isn't short of money, so you are free to spend it however you wish!” came Megan's sharp retort.

She then spun on her heels and stalked back to the living room, paying no heed to him.

Inside, everyone proceeded to butter Jacob up. Megan was pleased to see Jacob chatting pleasantly with her father and her brother. He was young, handsome, and capable. He was the perfect candidate to be her spouse.

Meanwhile, Harold had no choice but to leave after being kicked out by Megan. I have to find a chance to talk to Mr. Zeller one day, and tell him that I want to call off the engagement.

He had just left the Zeller residence when Levi appeared before him.

“Why did you come back?” Harold asked in an indifferent manner.

“Mr. Campbell, Paradise Hotel is behind the urban renewal project in Southvale. I'd like to know if there's anyone you want to slot in? I'll get that done right away,” Levi said.

He was actually making up an excuse to find out if Harold was furious.

“Is Mr. Zeller involved?” Harold inquired swiftly without much thought.

Levi responded politely, “Mr. Zeller's company isn't qualified, for Zeller Group's scale is not up to standard. According to the rules, Zeller Group has no chance of joining the project. However, if you want to slot them in, we can make an exception.”

“In that case, slot the Zellers in. That's all. Head back and make the arrangements now.”

After relaying his orders, Harold left without looking back.

Levi breathed a sigh of relief.

He fished out his phone and called Elias Simmons, the middleman.

“Elias, include Zeller Group into the urban renewal project in Southvale!”
