The Protector (The Return Of The God of War) novel Chapter 45

Steve looked at Zoey and said, “I heard about that Ecological Park project you’re working on. That’s indeed an impressive accomplishment. Keep working hard then.”

“Thank you, Uncle Steve.” Zoey nodded.

June was friendlier in comparison. With a smile on her face, she said, “Zoey is clearly a competent girl.”

Caitlyn seized the opportunity to curry some favor from June and Steve by asking them to help their daughter whenever possible. After all, Steve is extremely authoritative in the field of business.

Steve looked at Levi displeasingly. “Of course we’re willing to help your daughter, but have you thought about how others will see us if we assist someone that is not related to us?”

Everyone knew Steve was implying for Zoey to become his daughter-in-law.

June added with a smile. “After all, we have rules to follow in our family. All our family members must have proper conduct and manners.”

June was informing everyone indirectly that Zoey can be accepted into the Nash family as long as she completely severs her relationship with Levi.

Aaron responded immediately. “We understand that. How else did you manage to raise an extraordinary kid like Theo here?”

“Come on, It’s almost time now. We should head straight for the hotel.” Theo said.

“Hm. Let’s go.” Steve nodded sternly.

“Hold on!” Levi voiced out all of a sudden.

“What’s the matter? You have something to say?” Everyone looked at him simultaneously.

Levi looked at Zoey. “Zoey, actually, I’ve prepared a birthday banquet for you at a restaurant. Let me bring you there.”

Caitlyn said impatiently. “Hmph! So what? Theo arranged a banquet at Kempinski Hotel! One table there costs over a hundred thousand. I’m sure the place you’ve reserved paled in comparison to that.”
