At that moment, an image of Levi from six years ago flashed across her mind. Back then, he was young and
idealistic.
Without help from anyone else, he had managed to make a name for himself and establish his company through
his own efforts.
This was what she most admired about Levi.
Even after six years, Levi still retained the bravado and tenacity he had in his younger days.
However, he had learned to be less aggressive and to hide his powers when necessary.
Other than that, his achievements and his character remained much the same as before. Zoey felt that he had
even improved somewhat.
She was very pleased with how Levi was right now.
She didn’t care about the number of achievements he had. As long as he still possessed the fortitude he had back
then, she would be satisfied.
“To me, this is the biggest surprise you could have given me,” she continued to sob, drenching the front of his suit.
Levi wiped the tears from her face and gazed at her with conflicted emotions.

you for now.
However, it would only take him a while more to clear things up with the Garrison family. By then, Zoey would find
out for herself, too.
He believed that the day would come soon!
Although Levi had just announced that he was the mysterious boss of Morris Group, nobody at the wedding aside
from Zoey could feel happy for him.
Sure, as the head of Morris Group, Levi Garrison had the most prestigious status out of everyone in South Hampton
and its surrounding lands.
However, the Garrison clan was intent on creating trouble for him.
This lent a touch of sorrow to Levi’s small bit of achievement.
In front of a tremendously powerful clan like the Garrisons, the Morris Group was practically nothing.
Worse still, Levi and the Garrison clan went back a long way and they loathed each other bitterly.
Levi was in for a very rough and dangerous time.
While he was the esteemed boss of the Morris Group, he was still nothing but an ordinary person to the Garrisons.
“Oh, Levi! We are all very happy to hear that you’re the boss of Morris Group. However, the little power you have is
nothing compared to that of the Garrison family. You must be delusional if you think you can take them down!”
Jason had a very clear understanding of the Garrison family’s power. He knew that if Levi tried to go up against
them, he would be destroyed instantly like an egg that had been hurled against a rock.
Even Emma tried to dissuade him. “My son, I’m already very proud of you for your achievements. However, this is
the Garrison family you’re up against. Why don’t you let me go to them and plead for your life on your behalf? Why
can’t we live peacefully instead of stirring up trouble with them?”
Meredith and the others agreed immediately. “Exactly! Just get down on your knees and prostrate yourself before
Mr. Damien! It shouldn’t be that hard.”
“Can you survive on dignity alone? Forgive me for being blunt, but you’re too hung up on dignity!”
“Exactly! As long as you kneel before Mr. Damien and plead for your life, you’ll be recognized as a young master of
the Garrison family. You’ll have as much riches and glory as you’ll ever need. Isn’t that a great deal?”
“Besides, are you willing to put Zoey through this sort of danger? What if you put the child inside her belly in danger
as well? Have you ever thought about that?”

Levi’s status as the boss of the Morris Group made him as useful as the “p” in raspberry.
In fact, he was in a great deal of physical danger himself.
They could not count on him to protect them.
“Levi, you might be very strong in other areas but there are two weaknesses of yours we must point out,” Robert
said sternly. “Firstly, your worldview is way too limited. Secondly, you are a poor judge of situations and do not know
how to turn them to your advantage.”
“It’s just as Damien said——your privileged circumstances and the small bubble of people you interact with have
caused you to have a narrow view of the world. You should maintain a heart of humility. There are many out there
who are stronger and much more powerful than you are. Are you so reckless and arrogant that you want to go up
against them?”
“Besides, the Garrison clan is choosing to ignore your lowly status and is accepting you back into their family as
long as you kneel before them. Don’t you see the opportunity that’s been given to you?”
Everyone agreed very much with Robert’s words.
Levi was too crazy for his own good. Trying to talk sense into him would do no good.
It was quite possible that what happened six years ago might happen again.
