Seeing how Zoey misunderstood Levi so badly, Iris was so anxious that she felt a burning desire to tell her that Levi was in fact the owner of Morris Group and even everything she owned was given by him!
He wasn’t losing his spine but instead, he had become even stronger and more powerful than six years ago!
However, she managed to hold back the urge when she recalled what Levi had told her before.
While Zoey was complaining, tears started trickling down her face.
“Does he see me as a vain girl? It doesn’t make any difference to me whether he is one of the Jones family members or not!”
Iris consoled, “Zoey, I think you really should believe in him. Since he was already so talented six years ago, I believe he won’t be too bad now too! I have a feeling that he’s become stronger after going through the challenging times in the past six years.”
Zoey shook her head and insisted, “I can’t see that, Iris. I can’t see any hope in him especially after he started interacting with the Joneses! He’s been using his connection with them to settle things very frequently and he will slowly lose the will to fight hard because he’s too used to getting things done through the easy way!”
Iris hurriedly said, “Zoey, please give him more time and I’m sure he will be able to prove his talent to everyone soon! For example, I think he will prove it to you at the wedding ceremony by making sure everyone knows that you’re the most respectable lady of the entire world!”
She could only reveal the time when a change would come so that Zoey could be hopeful about things.
“Haha.” Zoey flashed her a faint smile.
It was probable that she only saw what she said as a joke.
Immediately, Zoey changed the subject of their conversation by asking Iris, “By the way, you have yet to tell me who’s the boss of Morris Group. Every time I tried to ask you, you would always give me a vague answer.”
Iris’ expression turned stiff when she heard her question.
It was all Levi’s fault that she was put in such a quandary!
Did he really have to go this far just to reveal his identity to Zoey?
“Oh, there’s no point telling you that because you don’t know him anyway.”
Iris had no choice but to answer that way.
“Seems like he’s not a good-looking man so that’s why you aren’t interested in him!”
Much to Iris’ relief, Zoey decided to laugh it off instead of pressing on.
In the blink of an eye, the day of the Jones family’s anniversary had arrived.
As the venue of the event, the old manor of the Joneses in South Hampton was decorated extensively so that the event was a vibrant and merry one.
Two sides of the road leading to the manor were adorned with big red lanterns and family flags which fluttered along with the wind.
In fact, it was said that the Joneses had splurged a staggering amount of two billion during the preparation of the event!
It was easy to see how grand and magnificent the event would be.
On the day prior to the event, Mia drove to fetch Levi to South Hampton.
Soon, she returned to Edburg Manor together with him.
A board on which two large words ‘Jones Family’ were written was attached to the wall above the main door; it gave the place an imperial and domineering aura.
That was the manor which was resided by the royal family!
A large troop of security officers stood outside the manor in a line to maintain the safety of the place.
“Levi, this way please!”
Mia showed him the way inside.
However, just as Levi was about to enter the manor, a voice came, “It’s not that easy to step into Edburg Manor!”
