The Protector (The Return Of The God of War) novel Chapter 1228

The only reason Jerry had approached Zoey was simple.

He desired the business empire that Zoey had owned as well as the power of the Lehman family.

Unfortunately, Jerry could no longer count on the Lehman family anymore.

He had received news that The Dark World had sent out an assassination order to eliminate Levi Garrison’s child – Forlevia Lopez.

After all, Levi was dead. So, his offspring couldn’t live either, and Zoey would be in danger next.

Because of that, Dale Lehman was forced to give up his god-daughter, Zoey.

It was no surprise that he took the approach of giving up Zoey to protect the Lehman family. Ultimately, he knew the enemies were extremely powerful, and the Lehmans wouldn’t stand a chance against them.

However, Zoey would have to face huge challenges ahead of her.

The business empire she had built on her own would be divided sooner or later. Hence, Jerry took the initiative to get to it first.

In reality, Jerry was nothing like a gentleman. He was a scheming man who would do whatever it takes to achieve his motives.

He merely put on a gentleman act to fool others.

“I initially thought you’d be drowning in sadness because of Levi Garrison’s death. It’s great to know that it doesn’t seem to bother you at all!” Jerry grinned.

Upon hearing that, Zoey glared at him fiercely, “It’s none of your business whether if we shed tears or not! Besides, I can take care of myself! I don’t need you!”

Yet, Jerry’s smile remained on his face as he said, “Zoey, you’ll need someone to take care of you eventually. Think about it from different aspects; it’s better to have a man to take care of you.”

“Thanks, but no thanks. So please excuse yourself!” Zoey said.

However, instead of leaving, Jerry sat on the sofa.

“Ms. Lopez, in case you don’t understand your situation, your child is being targeted as a remnant of a traitor! Even Mr. Lehman has decided to cut ties with you because of this!” Jerry mocked.

“What? How could that be true?” Zoey was surprised.

As she said those words, she received a call from Dale Lehman himself.

Zoey’s expression instantly dropped.
