It was only then that everyone realized how badly battered and pale Thierry was.
Even George looked to be injured and in pain.
It was evident that someone had beaten them up. Unfortunately, as to the how and why, no one was any the wiser.
Another glaring issue was the absence of Levi, which made the guests wonder if Thierry and George’s injuries were
his handiwork.
If it were true that Levi had beaten them up, then there could only be one explanation.
Gradually, the terrifying realization sank in, and everyone broke out in cold sweat.
“I said something wrong and got punished for it. Watch your words, everyone. Otherwise, you’ll end up like me,”
Thierry warned sternly.
Everyone nodded fearfully, not daring to ask what had transpired exactly.
Just like that, the banquet came to an end.
However, everyone still had plenty of questions swirling about in their minds.
“Hey, what do you guys think happened?”
With a glower, Melanie replied, “Isn’t it obvious? Wildefield has issued a warning with an attack!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“That’s right. Evie’s current status in Wildefield is high! And since Levi is her father, he’d naturally come under their
protection!”
“I see. No wonder Thierry and George got beaten up and even issued a warning to us!”
Even Zoey and Mia agreed with them.
Wildefield did indeed have very high hopes for Forlevia.
Previously when Levi was rude toward Avery, not only did Avery put up with it, but Wildefield also gave him a pass.
After all, how could they let anyone humiliate Forlevia’s father?
Upon arriving home, Zoey went up to Levi and said, “See, Wildefield has helped you once again. You really ought to
thank them!”
Levi looked all confused for a moment before realizing what Zoey meant by her words.
Oh boy, they’ve misunderstood again.
Fine, I’ll let them think what they want!
“By the way, Abigail’s coming back in a couple of days. If I happen to be in Wildefield then, please take her there to
find me. I haven’t seen her for so long,” Zoey reminded.
At the mention of Abigail, Levi felt himself thinking back to the good old days.
Like Zoey had said, it had been a very long while since they last met Abigail, and it would be nice to meet up again.
Since Wildefield had only given two rest days, Levi had to make the best of it.
As such, he brought Forlevia out to play, letting her live an ordinary life as much as possible.
It had also been a long time since Zoey met up with her classmates and friends, so she decided to hold a gathering
for everyone.
As soon as they heard of it, Levi too attended the gathering with Forlevia in tow.
Many of Zoey’s classmates hadn’t seen one another in a long while either, so it made the gathering all the more
heartwarming.
Tap tap tap.
All of a sudden, the sound of footsteps rang out.
When everyone turned to look, all they saw was a tall man dressed impeccably in a suit and leather shoes, looking
very suave and dapper.
At first glance, nobody could recognize him.
“A-Are you Jared Schmidt?” Zoey finally asked.
“What? It’s him?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs soon as Zoey mentioned his name, the crowd flew into an uproar.
Even Levi was shocked to the core.
Jared was their high school and university classmate. He had always been the epitome of a nerd.
Other than acing all his subjects in school, he didn’t have any other merits.
He was, however, well known for his passion for science, to the extent that people saw him as a mad scientist.
When he spoke, he’d stutter so much that people had difficulty understanding him, and it was even worse with Zoey
around.
Yet, that wasn’t surprising, as it was common knowledge that he had a crush on Zoey.
All in all, Jared was highly undesirable. Not only was he sloppy and ugly, but he also didn’t have the best living
conditions as a child of a single-parent family. Naturally, no girls ever fell for him.
However, the Jared that everyone was now staring at had done a hundred and eighty-degree turn.
Everything about him, from his looks to his demeanor, had changed.
If Zoey hadn’t mentioned his name, the others would have thought he was a celebrity of sorts.
“Wow, Jared, you’ve changed so much,” one of the classmates exclaimed as everyone else stared at him in utter
disbelief.
Jared chuckled and replied, “Everyone has changed even more! I’ve only changed in terms of my appearance!”
