Everyone was stunned by his audacity.
Does he even know what he’s saying? The Garrisons have to kneel before him?
He’s crippled!
What a dreamer.
Even Zoey felt embarrassed by his reckless statement.
To Zoey, Levi used to be the God of War, but not anymore.
“Ha! You and your threats. Alright then, I’ll report this right now. Let’s see what they’re gonna do to y’all.”
Meredith was exasperated seeing Levi’s ruthless attitude. She told herself she would do everything she could to put them in their place.
“Do whatever you like.”
Levi gave her a nonchalant shrug, seeing that she was burning in anger.
“Yeah! Do whatever you like. No one is gonna change my name this time.” Forlevia supported Levi’s stance.
With her own daughter and husband on the same side, Zoey readily stood by them and took their side.
Following that, she chased Meredith and everyone else out of the house before coming back to continue their celebration.
While everyone was eating, Zoey went over to Levi and whispered in his ears. “Should we change Evie’s name too?”
“It’s fine. I think Forlevia is fine. This name is a reminder for me to protect and cherish both you and our daughter.”
A blissful smile spread on Zoey’s face as she nodded.
After Meredith and the others left, they contacted the Garrison clan in Oakland City without losing a moment.
Meredith went straight to the point and even exaggerated the story when the butler picked up the phone.
“Uh-huh, so what?” The voice sounded apathetic from the other side.
Hearing that, Meredith was taken aback by his nonchalant response.
“I mean, I thought the clan has already forbidden Levi’s child from taking his family name?”
“Why can’t Levi’s daughter follow his last name? There are so many families in the whole of Erudia. It’s not like we can do anything to them if they choose to use our surname. There’s nothing wrong with that, so stop trying to make a huge fuss out of this.”
Meredith was frightened when she heard the butler’s intimidating tone. ”That’s not my intention, I’m just trying to…”
“Then just mind your own business and get lost,” the butler interrupted testily and hung up.
Meredith did not believe the Garrison clan would actually condone Levi’s behavior and even threw a party after they found out about it.
Now that Levi had the whole clan within his grip, no one dared to do a thing.
They were afraid they would incur his wrath.
The fact that Levi named his daughter Forlevia Garrison meant he had acknowledged the clan.
For the Garrisons, this was the best thing that could ever happen to them.
“What are we still waiting for? Forlevia is now one of us. We should prepare some gifts and go to North Hampton to congratulate them!”
“Yes! We should also ask the Garcias, the Lehmans, and the others to come along too. Oh! Don’t forget the imperial family!”
“I’ll contact all the Garrisons from Oakland and Erudia too,” Teneb said.
Now that even the oldest and most powerful man within the family spoke, everyone set to action. This was the clan’s only chance to get on Levi’s good side.
The fate of the whole clan now resided in the hands of Levi, so they had to make sure everything fell into place in their favor.
They had to let Levi know they genuinely wanted to patch things up with him so he would spare them.
Hence, after that, each of the Garrison, Garcia, and Lehman families prepared exquisite and expensive gifts for Forlevia.
It went without saying that Meredith was shocked beyond measure.
She did not know that everyone would take this so seriously.
Hundreds and thousands of people from influential families from Erudia came together in celebration.
They came from every corner to congratulate the daughter of the God of War on the day she changed her last name.
The element of surprise lay in the fact that Levi was already crippled. Meredith could not wrap her head around why they still held him in high regard and respect.
Little did she know, although Levi was disabled, he was stronger as ever.
Forlevia was the God of War’s daughter, and no one could stop her from becoming a Garrison.
