The voice was like a roaring thunder.
Everyone turned to the source and was instantly stunned—especially the Garrisons.
All their smiling faces froze in a blink of an eye.
Olivia, who had so much to say just a moment ago, was now dumbfounded.
As though she had been struck by lightning.
Damien paled.
Tyrone’s expression turned ghastly.
So did everyone else’s.
The tens of thousands of eyes immediately shifted toward the direction of that voice.
“Hmm? Wait. I think it was a woman’s voice…”
Then, it dawned on everyone.
That was a woman’s voice?
So it’s not Levi Garrison?
Everyone had initially thought Levi had arrived.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEmma had even become ecstatic for a brief moment.
Yet, what the crowd saw next was a woman walking over with a baby in her arms.
It was none other than Zoey.
She was the one who had spoken.
“What? It’s actually her!”
Tyrone inhaled sharply.
Damien looked horrid.
What is she up to?
Emma immediately ran up to her.
“What… What are you doing here?”
She was petrified.
Zoey smiled. “I’m here to take up the Garrison clan’s challenge in my husband’s place.”
She had returned from Keerea for this.
Otherwise, she would have still been recuperating in that country.
Today was supposed to be the child’s baby shower, but she had duped both the Lopez and Black families and come
to Oakland City just to fulfill the agreement.
The woman shocked everyone with her revelation.
The crowd was stupefied the moment her words fell.
Everyone stared at her in disbelief.
“My husband has other matters to take care of, so I’m here to keep his promise and challenge the Garrisons. We
never go back on our word, so please take back all the insults you’ve made against him!” she yelled.
Emma couldn’t endure it anymore. Tears began to flow down her cheeks.
Zoey hasn’t forgotten about Levi.
Instead, she still loves him dearly.
She’s even here to take up the challenge in his place.
Abigail, Benny, and the others were beyond moved.
Tyrone gazed at Zoey in bewilderment. “You want to take Levi’s place and challenge us?”
Many among the crowd stared at her similarly.
A woman challenging the Garrisons?
And she’s even here in her husband’s place?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZoey nodded in determination. “That’s right.”
Tyrone burst into laughter. “Are you seeing this, Levi? Your wife and one-month-old child are here to take up the
challenge in your place, but where are you? You’re the biggest coward and most pathetic excuse for a man I’ve
ever met!”
Damien chimed in frostily, “This has to be the biggest joke I’ve seen so far. What a champ, Levi! You vanished
without a trace, and now your woman and child are here to shoulder everything for you? You’re not cut out to be a
husband or father! How despicable!”
“I know, right? And he tried to compare himself to my son? Is he even worthy?”
Olivia’s face was full of contempt.
Emma was crying profusely at this point.
It didn’t matter if her son never made her proud, but now, he was now seen as an utter disgrace.
Zoey scanned the crowd. “That’s nonsense! My husband isn’t a scumbag, and he certainly isn’t irresponsible! I’m
telling all of you, he just has some urgent matters to take care of right now. He’s the most responsible man I’ve
ever met! Besides, I’m his wife; what difference does it make if I’m here instead of him?”
Damien shook his head, baffled. “Do you seriously still believe him even though you know exactly what’s going on,
Zoey? Stop trying to fool yourself!”
“That’s right. I’ve always believed in my husband, and I always will!”
