Meredith, Robert, and Harry were all exasperated.
Meanwhile, Zoey’s parents were indignant at the sudden news.
Immediately, they called Zoey and asked, “We heard you have decided on your wedding date. Is that true?”
To which their daughter replied composedly, “It’s true, I’ve discussed it with Levi. I was planning to give you a call to
inform you tonight.”
“Why have you not discussed your wedding date with us? Do you even treat us as your parents? Do you even
respect the elders in the Lopez and Black families?”
“Are you planning to ditch your mother? Oh right, I guess Levi’s mother is your new mother now. In that case, who
am I to you?” Caitlyn scowled, almost smashing the phone out of anger.
Zoey hurriedly explained, “Mom, I’m already an adult. I can make my own decisions now. I’ll discuss certain things
with you all when it’s necessary. However, I can make most decisions on my own.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Since marriage is a life-changing event, how can you decide on it all by yourself? Besides, all of us don’t agree to
your marriage to Levi Garrison again!”
Caitlyn continued on without listening to her daughter, “Also, why don’t you listen to your grandpa and grandma?
They will gladly arrange your marriage for you!”
“Mom, why should all of you decide everything for me? I understand that you’re afraid of Grandpa and Grandma,
but they hold no authority over me. Besides, I won’t be manipulated by anyone else because I have enough
bargaining chips now,” Zoey said.
“Come home as soon as possible to discuss with us! If you don’t home, Grandpa and Grandma will look for you by
themselves!”
As such, Zoey and Levi had no choice but to go to the Black family’s manor.
The atmosphere was rather tense in the meeting room; everyone had on grim expressions.
“Kneel!” Meredith commanded coldly.
“Grandma, what do you mean by that?” Zoey asked.
“I’m asking you to kneel before me! Do you not understand? Both of you have to kneel as well!” Meredith fixated
her gaze on Levi when she yelled.
“Why should we kneel? You must at least give us a reason,” Levi said.
“Aren’t you aware of your wrongdoing? How could you decide on your marriage all on your own? You even decided
on the wedding date without consulting all of us!”
Zoey’s grandmother trembled violently with anger.
The next moment, Zoey explained smilingly, “I can make my own decisions. I don’t have to trouble all of you about
this trivial matter. On that day, all of you only have to attend the wedding and enjoy the ceremony,”
“Bullshit! Did we agree on such an arrangement?” Meredith couldn’t help but blurt a curse.
“Grandma, I have to get it straight – Any decisions about my wedding have to be decided by me!” Zoey
immediately retorted.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“That will happen only when you’re competent enough!” Meredith sneered.
“I am competent enough, and the Lopez and Black families can’t tell me what to do anymore. Here, take a look by
yourselves!”
As soon as she finished, Zoey threw a document on the table in front of Meredith.
All her family members were taken aback after they took the document and read through it.
“What? Zoey, are you really that wealthy now?” Meredith asked; the shock she felt was evident in her voice.
“Yes. Under such circumstances, can I make my own decisions?” Zoey questioned.
Meanwhile, everyone in the room was startled and lost in thought.
“I have something else to tell you all. I’m bearing Levi a child now. Therefore, all of you can never separate us!”
“What?”
The woman nearly threw everyone into a fit as the news had come like a bolt from the blue.
After ten minutes, her parents and grandparents eventually recollected themselves and reluctantly accepted the
fact.
“My god! What have we done?” Aaron heaved a sigh.
Meanwhile, Meredith glanced at Levi and said, “Your wedding has to be a grand ceremony. I will agree to it on one
condition… His mother cannot attend the wedding! I can’t allow her presence to dishonor the Black family!”
