Her words made everyone present stop in their tracks.
She still loves Levi?
Everyone had thought that Zoey had given up on Levi.
“I’ll be honest with all of you. I won’t marry again. Even if I do, the only husband that I’ll accept is Levi,” Zoey announced with a look of resolve in her eyes.
“You…”
Meredith jumped to her feet, furious. At that moment, she was tempted to slap Zoey.
“You don’t have a choice. You must marry Landyn, and you must attend the engagement ceremony tomorrow,” Meredith hissed.
“Sylas, keep an eye on her,” Robert ordered.
It was then Sylas argued, “Although it’s not my place to say anything, I still want to say my piece. It’s inappropriate for Ms. Lopez to marry into the Gates family. It’s rumored that the Gates family agreed to Landyn’s marriage with Ms. Lopez because they need her to change Kurt’s fate. If she marries into the Gates family, she won’t be happy. She’s nothing but a tool for them!”
“Nonsense!”
Meredith slammed her hand onto the table.
“Are you telling me that you believe in those baseless rumors?”
Meredith raged, “Furthermore, Mr. Gates truly loves Zoey. He used to court her, and that is a fact. Zoey will only be happier after her marriage. She won’t have a hard time there.”
“Mrs. Black, I’ve done my investigation. Mr. Gates has a chaotic private life. He has been with more than hundreds of women. He’s a black hole, and you’re pushing Ms. Lopez into it!” Sylas argued.
“Stop with your nonsense! You’re slandering Mr. Gates. If you don’t want to do your job, you can quit it!” Meredith roared.
“I-”
Sylas wanted to do as Meredith said.
However, when she thought about how Levi had tasked her with protecting Zoey, she decided to stay.
“I won’t marry him. Grandma, you’d better give up.”
Zoey was uncompromising.
