Robert shook his head profusely. “It’s alright. We can leave him alone now. He’s nothing to do with our family anymore! Just let him be!”
“Yeah, Grandma! Just don’t mess with him anymore! Who knows, he might have other tricks up his sleeves?”
It took all the Blacks to convince Meredith that it was not worth her time to hound Levi down.
Meredith then exclaimed to Zoey, “Although it costs us ten million, I think it’s all worth it now that you’ve seen his true colors.”
“No, Grandma! Levi’s a good person, believe me!”
Zoey had complete faith in Levi when he said he threw the cheque into the trash can at the Back family’s residence.
There was a high chance that someone had seen it and picked it up.
Right now, Zoey wanted nothing but to prove that Levi was innocent.
Robert added, “My dear, that man has nothing to with us from now on. Whether if he’s a good person or not, we don’t care.”
“Yeah, it doesn’t matter to us anymore whether he lie!”
The rest of the Blacks also chimed in.
Even though everyone in the Black family said they could not care more about Levi, Zoey knew they would bring the incident up from time to time to shame him in the days to come.
Alas, there was nothing she could do.
Now that Zoey was officially out of her marriage, Meredith wanted to set her up with another man right away.
With Zoey’s current achievements and the powerful Black family at her back, she would be a woman sought after by many.
“The two of you just relax. I will definitely find Zoey a husband that stands out from the rest. You two just have to wait and watch her walk down the aisle!”
Having heard Meredith’s words, Caitlyn and Aaron could now picture in their head their daughter’s wedding and how they would be all tearful yet excited for her.
Once again, Meredith called for a meeting with the rest of the family.
“Zoey, you remember how Grandpa and Grandma promised you to invest two billion into your company if you part ways with Levi? Now that you have broken off from him, we will honor our promise!” Meredith proclaimed to the family.
Zoey was surprised. “Really, Grandma? That’s so awesome!”
“You still have any problems on your side? Tell us,” Meredith asked her granddaughter in a caring tone.
Zoey paused to think for a while before replying, “Grandma, I’m afraid I do have a problem.”
“Just tell me, my dear.”
“We’re about to enter the electronics market in the South City, but my company still doesn’t have a suitable place for our office. Also, we still lack production centers and our technical team is underdeveloped,” Zoey hurriedly added.
“That’s simple! I’ll settle it for you.”
Logan let out a hearty laugh.
Zoey’s problem was a piece of cake to Logan.
“Logan, I don’t think things are simple at all. Morris Group has already handed to us all of its e-commerce business. As of this moment, our target is Triple Group before they pulled out of the market. I think it’s a bit too much for us. Our initial target is set at around fifty billion.”
Gasp!
Everyone in the room took a sharp breath.
Their initial target is fifty billion?
How is that even attainable?
It’s true that the two billion Meredith had promised Zoey was already a hefty sum.
But in comparison to Zoey’s current target of fifty billion, it was a speck of dust.
“This is what I’m worried about. Morris Group said that they will provide us with the funding, but we still haven’t settled the logistics and manpower. I really have to own everything that Triple Group had before I could embark on my mission.”
Zoey had a gloomy expression on her face.
This mission is impossible!
The affluent families in South City have already laid their claims on parts of Triple Group’s old playground!
Zoey had no idea on how to reach her target.
Robert queried in an astonished tone, “Zoey, you mean we have to reclaim every property of Triple Group?”
“Yep, that’s right! And let’s not talk about the issues with finding an office. The demand for electronics in South City can only be met if we have Triple Group’s enormous production capacity! Everything they owned was bundled together, which made it cost-effective for them to operate on such a large scale.”
Zoey’s words left everyone in the room speechless.
Everyone knew that in the previous feud between all the great families in South City, Triple Group’s properties were split up into many fragments, each of which was now under a different family.
They also knew that the Black family did not have enough power to reclaim everything.
