Chapter 3498 Am I A Pawn
Phoenix sighed. “It’s scary what a broken heart can do to a person…”
Before long, Zoey decided to approach Floyd directly.
“Floyd, what’s wrong with you? Did something happen?”
Upon hearing that, Floyd reeled in shock.
Oh, sh*t. I’m attracting attention to myself. Phoenix and the others aren’t a problem since I know they won’t say a word to Master. But Mrs. Garrison’s different! She’ll likely share her concerns with him, and that’d be disastrous! I may not mind it at all, but it’d undoubtedly affect Gloria. How can I let that happen when I’ve sworn to protect her with my life? Oh, no. I can’t afford to mess anything up at this juncture.
After much hesitation, he decided to tell Zoey the same excuse he had given Phoenix.
“Please don’t tell anyone else about this, Mrs. Garrison. I have my pride, and so does Master. If word gets out that his senior disciple is in a slump because of affairs of the heart, it’d be a disgrace to us both!” Floyd urged, having gone to the extent of demeaning himself and making him sound like the most useless and worthless man on earth.
With that, he was sure Zoey’s suspicion would give way to sympathy and that she’d help keep it a secret from Levi.
True enough, Zoey’s heart softened.
After consoling Floyd for a while, she instructed everyone else to leave him alone and to stop asking probing questions.
Not only must they not leak the story out, but they also weren’t allowed to let Levi know.
Without Gloria around, Floyd was undeniably clever.
He could expertly manipulate everyone and have them eating out of his hand, just like what he had done with Zoey.
