The two parties would meet each other soon.
Meanwhile, Shaun was scheming about how he would make Levi bump into Thierry.
Hah, it would be so great if they meet head-on! Levi won’t even have the chance to beg for mercy.
“Wait, could he have been in the lounge? We searched everywhere except the lounge,” suggested someone.
“Right! That is possible!” blurted everyone as the revelation hit them.
Meredith immediately instructed, “Russell, run ahead as quickly as possible and go to the lounge. Hurry!”
Hearing that order got Russell to run as fast as lightning toward the lounge.
Everyone else sped up as well.
Russell was fast, but he met Levi on the way over to the lounge.
“Levi, what are you doing here?” asked Russell curiously.
The mere thought of how Thierry and the others were right behind him got Russell to sweat nervously.
Levi will definitely be in danger if they see him here!
“Levi, follow me over. Stay here for ten minutes before you leave, okay?”
Russell pushed Levi to the garden at the side without offering any other explanation or giving Levi the opportunity to ask anything.
Levi understood what Russell was doing, so he didn’t stop the latter.
Russell ran ahead to the lounge after hiding Levi away.
It didn’t take long before over a hundred guests ran past the corridor and head over to the lounge.
North Sky Lord didn’t leave with Levi until everyone had walked past them.
At the lounge.
Zoey and Forlevia were the only ones there when Russell showed up.
“You didn’t see anyone around here, right?” asked Russell.
“I saw Daddy…” answered Forlevia instinctively.
Russell quickly warned, “Evie, dear, don’t tell anyone that your daddy came, okay? Not even if they ask.”
“Okay, I understand,” replied Forlevia as she nodded obediently.
Russell talked to Zoey for a while about whether she saw anyone else…
Before long, Thierry and the others reached the lounge.
“Is he not here?” asked Thierry in disappointment.
Russell shook his head.
“Zoey, did you see anyone around here?”
Over a hundred guests turned their attention to Zoey and Forlevia.
The number of people scared Forlevia.
Zoey was worried that Forlevia would let their secret slip, so she was quick to hold her daughter in her arms.
“No, I didn’t see anyone around,” lied Zoey as she put on an oblivious expression.
Russell sighed a breath of relief.
“Well, that’s disappointing. I thought we’d be able to meet the mysterious man,” commented Thierry sadly.
“Let’s continue with the party,” suggested Judy as she waved.
Meanwhile, Shaun and the others had secretly gone to a corner to discuss how they would destroy Levi.
“Watch and learn…” said Jennie before she stepped forward and declared, “Mr. Langston, I’d like to report someone to you.”
“What is it?” asked Thierry.
Everyone shifted their attention to Jennie.
“I want to tell you about Levi Garrison! I saw him at the party site earlier, and it is likely he snuck in here to visit his wife and daughter! His action is no different from disrespecting you and the Great Family of Westford. You have already issued the order and banned them from seeing each other. As such, Levi is, in effect, taunting you!” said Jennie evilly.
Thump!
Both Zoey’s and Russell’s heart skipped a beat at that.
Levi has been discovered?
The two started praying that Levi had already left. If he had stayed, he will no doubt die today.
“He did what? That insolent punk!” growled Thierry angrily.
Cora was furious as well. She demanded, “Hurry and get Levi over right now! How dare he taunt Thierry like that? I won’t forgive him!”
“Understood!”
Everyone spread out immediately.
