Chapter 441
Bob was about to argue with Sam when Jay suddenly said, "I do. I believe Bob."
Bob naturally knew that Sam wanted to goad him into bringing Zoe along to meet them.
They had been dating for months, but he never brought her along to meet his best friends.
There were times when Sam pressured him so much he would give in, but Zoe would say no whenever
he asked.
He knew Zoe did not feel safe after the trouble between her and the Levines, and no one was aware
that they were dating, save for Zoe's best friends Cordy and Quinn.
Moreover, Zoe was worried that the Levines would harass Bob if too many people knew, and she
definitely did not want that, insisting that she knew Nancy Levine too well.
It would take some time for Nancy's rage to ease, until she would not go out of her way to harass Zoe-

Naturally, Bob respected Zoe's decision, though it was more apt to say that Zoe mattered more to him
than his friends.
That was why he would never breathe a word no matter how Sam threatened him.
Nonetheless, Sam was shocked by Jay's reaction. "Hold on. You know Bob's girlfriend?"
He was not the only one who had not met the lady, was he?!
He hung out with Bob the most... only for Bob to tell everyone except him?!
What, was Bob so worried that he would lay a finger on a brothers' wife too?!
Still, just as Sam was getting incensed, Jay answered, "I don't know her, but I have a good feeling
about her."
"Pfft." Sam snorted in disdain-a good feeling when they had not even met yet?!
A servant approached them respectfully then. "Mr. Davis? Your parents are saying that dinner will start
soon, and you should greet the guests at the lobby."
"Okay," Bob said, since he had been hanging out with Sam and Jay in the third-floor arcade. "You two
wait here. I'm going to greet my guests."
"Let's just go together. This place is no fun anyway."
"Sure."
The trio headed downstairs-there were not that many guests today, aside from close family and friends.
Things were a lot less formal... up to a point.
When Bob and the others reached the lobby, they found Nancy there with a shy-looking girl who
resembled Zoe a lot.
They presumed that it was Cora Levine, Nancy's long-lost biological daughter.
The trio was surpassed by their arrival now, instead of noon.
But there was nothing that surprising either, since Nancy was very close friends with Yulia Young, Bob's

"Bobby, over here," Yulia called out just then.
Bob hurried over to her, with Sam and Jay in tow.
"Your Aunt Nancy is here. Aren't you going to greet her?" Yulia gestured.
"Hello, Aunt Nancy," Bob greeted her politely, despite his misgivings about the woman, especially how
cruel she was toward Zoe.
However, he owed her some respect for his mother's sake.
When it came to people of their birthright, they had to show their parents all due respect-even if they
behaved poorly or did not bother to work in private.
It was not coercion either, but the influence of family indoctrinated discipline.
"This is Cora, Nancy's daughter. She's two years younger than you," Yulia introduced her eagerly just
then.
Bob glanced at the woman, who looked just like Zoe.
And yet, there were so many things that set them apart. "Hello," Bob greeted her politely.
