God of War: Pinnacle (The Protector) Chapter 1403

“No matter what happens, I will never be a traitor!” Logan declared.

“Levi should be hammered to the pillar of shame forever.”

“It’s too embarrassing to have anything to do with Levi! I’d rather jump off a building than be associated with him now.”

The Lopez and Black families were the masters at being rude.

Now that Levi was in trouble, they could not help but throw in sarcastic comments.

They started to comment that Forlevia would never acknowledge him as a father and that Zoey would never want him as a husband.

Most of his relatives spoke like that.

They did not care for his success and were delighted to see him fall from grace. Not only so, they were even jumping at the chance to add salt to his injury.

What happened to Levi was the epitome of how years of trust and respect could be broken down in the blink of an eye.

In fact, if Levi showed up in front of them, he would probably be drowning in his so-called relative’s insults and criticism.

“No, Levi isn’t someone like that,” Zoey huffed in disbelief. “There must be something wrong with the news!”

Amidst the numerous criticisms thrown at Levi, Zoey tried to defend him as best as she could.

“Daddy loves Erudia! He would never do something like that!” Forlevia shouted in frustration too.

In response, Melanie stared at Zoey in amusement. “Do you still believe him at this point? The whole world knows about it. You are the only person who can’t accept it!”

“Exactly! Besides, all those foreign countries have declared their willingness to accept him. Who knows, he might have run away a long time ago and betrayed the country in exchange for success and wealth.”

Shaun and the rest began to blabber on.

However, Zoey shook her head fervently. “That’s impossible! Levi must still be in North Hampton. He would never betray Erudia, and he would never leave this place without a word!”

“Why don’t we confront him about it, then? We shall see if you believe that he is still hanging around here after that,” the rest challenged.

“Yes! The truth shall be revealed once we go to his manor.”

Truth be told, Shaun and Logan were actually making blind guesses and did not wholeheartedly believe that Levi had left either.

It was only because they were getting excited that they blurted out those words.

“Sure, I will go with you guys to prove Levi’s innocence!” Zoey agreed.

Shortly after, she took the group of people to the manor.

George, who recently returned from the North, was in charge of guarding the manor.

“This is…”

Zoey looked at him in curiosity.

“Zoey, look at how much Levi is hiding from you. He has a new butler he hired to watch the gates, and you don’t look like you are aware of it,” Jennie mocked.

George gazed at the crowd before him. “What do all of you want?”

“This has nothing to do with you, old man! But if you must know, this woman here is Levi’s wife and the owner of this manor,” Shaun pointed out.

George was startled to hear that Zoey was Levi’s wife, and he immediately opened the gates for her.

Then, Zoey brought them into the manor.

The place was empty without anyone in sight.

There was only a wheelchair in the middle of the area.

“See! Didn’t I tell you that he ran off?” Shaun’s eyes twinkled as he let out a triumphant smile.

“Levi must have escaped overseas and betrayed the country. Urgh, how I wish I could slap him right now!”

Acting as though they were purveyors of justice, they began hurling insults.

Boom!

At this juncture, Levi’s absence was a blow to Zoey’s heart.

Of all the times, why did you have to leave at this particular moment?

“Look, he must be in a hurry. He did not even bother to take his wheelchair with him.”

Logan eyed the abandoned wheelchair.

As for Zoey, she was looking around frantically, but she still could not spot Levi anywhere.

Exasperated, she walked over to George and asked, “Do you happen to know where Levi is?”

“I think he left North Hampton, but I don’t know any other details,” George replied truthfully.

“He must have ran off!”
