Just how shameless is this guy? How dare you claim all the merit? The God of War was the one responsible for it,
and it has nothing to do with you! Besides, what makes you think you can get Hades to work for you? L Nation
might be a small country, but he is still a God of War!
“Huh? So it really is you, Landyn? Thank you so much!” replied Zoey with a smile.
“I wasn’t going to tell you anything, but you guessed it all,” said Landyn as he grinned.
Landyn shamelessly admitted to it because he didn’t see any issue arising from his lies.
All he had to do was get someone to contact Hades and get the guy under his payroll.
“Thank you for rescuing me and my family while we were in grave danger,” said Zoey appreciatively.
“I will keep you safe for the rest of your life,” promised Landyn before he added, “Alright, I’ll take my leave now so I
don’t disrupt you working.”
Landyn could tell that Zoey felt awkward, so he left immediately.
After all, he was a smart man, and he knew how to take advantage without overstepping.

One subordinate asked, “Given your background, you can have any woman you want, so why her? Zoey Lopez
seems pretty ordinary.”
“It’s true. There are tons of women just like her out there,” chimed in another subordinate.
Landyn replied with a smile, “To tell you boys the truth, I have had hundreds of women, and no one had ever
rejected my advances before. She was the first, and I feel like she is special. There is no reason I can’t conquer that
woman.”
The others grinned mischievously. They finally understood what Landyn was aiming for.
“Besides, grandpa is gravely ill, and the fortune teller said that I can repel all bad luck if I marry that woman. Only
then would grandpa’s illness be cured. The wedding would also bring good fortune to the Gates family. In short, she
is nothing but a tool to bring good luck and cure grandpa. It just so happens that I want to conquer her as well, so
there’s that. Why else would I marry a divorcee?” informed Landyn as he smiled.
Everyone instantly understood that marrying Zoey was primarily to bring good fortune.
That night.
Everyone was smiling when Zoey got home, and that got Zoey suspicious.
“Zoey, I found a great suitor for you,” informed Meredith with a smile.
“What?” blurted Zoey, who was stunned.
“Zoey, this suitor is really something else. His grandfather is the president of the South Hampton Chamber of
Commerce, his father is the head of the New Alliance Bank in Erudia, and his mother is the president of the
Association of Foreign Enterprises.
To top it off, his maternal grandfather is also royalty in a foreign country! His family owns hundreds of banks, and
anyone who wanted to do business in South Hampton would need his family’s permission first,” informed Jennie.
It sounded exaggerated, but it was true.
“Given his family background, the actual guy doesn’t seem so important, but Zoey, he is amazing as well! He owns
over a dozen racecar clubs and about ten electronic companies. His influence is everywhere! He is also tall,
handsome, and is a mixed-blood. He basically doesn’t have any shortcomings.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEveryone had praised Landyn so much that it sounded like he was an angel from heaven.
Realization dawned on Zoey soon after.
They’re probably talking about Landyn.
“Oh, and you actually know this guy, Zoey,” added Jennie.
That confirmed Zoey’s suspicion.
“Thank you for all the effort you put in, grandma, but I won’t be dealing with my personal life at the moment. I have
my eyes set on my career, and this is a crucial moment, so I don’t want anyone to distract me,” replied Zoey
politely.
“Hahaha…”
Meredith laughed aloud.
“Zoey, if this is just an ordinary guy like Levi Garrison, I definitely wouldn’t let him get in the way of your career.
However, we are talking about the heir of the Gates family! Marrying him would not negatively affect your career.
In fact, it would give your career a tremendous boost!”
The others chimed in as well. “It’s true. All it takes is one word from him, and you will be raised to the top.”
“I’ve also looked into the matter and know that he used to court you. He has been in love with you this entire time,
Zoey,” said Jennie as she grinned.
Meredith also insisted, “Zoey, this wedding must happen, and I will be planning for it.”
