If truth be told, it was a matter of Levi’s words regarding the investments.

“Oh yeah, don’t you worry,” said Zoey suddenly. “I’ll pay back the five million; hopefully we can reel in

some investments as soon as possible.”

“There’s no need for that. Why are we even discussing this topic?”

Levi smiled.

“But you also have to pay back the money, no? How are you going to do that? You haven’t got any

money.”

At that, Levi nodded.

“Once we earn enough money from this project, I’m planning to get a house. It’s inappropriate of us to

stay with Mom and Dad,” Zoey added.

“Do you still remember our marital home?” asked Levi, remembering suddenly.

“I do. You designed that villa yourself, and it was perfect! What a waste,” Zoey sighed.

“I’m going to take back that villa,” Levi said.

“That villa belongs to the Garrison family now, Levi. Don’t do anything reckless. You can’t fight them,”

Zoey persuaded.

“Don’t worry.”

Levi was determined to take back what the Garrison family took from him.

The next day, Zoey was busy looking for investment while Levi stayed home. He wanted to let Zoey run

into a stone wall before making the necessary arrangements.

Aaron and Caitlyn looked at Levi who was smoking on the couch, their brows furrowed and they looked

sullen.

“Put out the cigarette and come with me! I have something to tell you!” said Aaron coldly, glaring at Levi

in revulsion.

Levi stubbed out his cigarette and followed suit.

“Dad, just fire away!”

Aaron’s brows knitted tightly together into a deep frown. “Are you not aware of our situation now?”

“I think we’re good.” Levi smiled. “We got the project and as long as we reel in some investments, Zoey

and our future will be bright as day.”

“Yeah, and it’s because Zoey has a promising future, you’re at risk.”

“What?” Levi’s expression changed from delight to puzzlement.

“You should know that once this project is accomplished, Zoey’s net worth will increase by a few billion.

She’ll gain a foothold in North Hampton in the future. Do you think you’ll still be worthy of her then?”

Aaron said solemnly. “I’m not questioning your abilities, but you have to understand that you just came

out of prison and things are different from six years ago. It won’t be easy to start a business again. The

gap between you and Zoey will only grow.”

“That’s right,” Caitlyn agreed. “You’re lazing around and doing nothing all day! You don’t even have a

decent job. Do you think you’re worthy of my daughter?”

“Exactly! Just imagine how humiliating will it be for Zoey if you’re still her husband by then.”

“We will find a proper time to discuss this with Zoey regarding your divorce! This is for the best, for both

you and Zoey! Just prepare yourself,” Aaron sighed.

Levi chuckled. “Mom, Dad, is this what they mean by burning the bridges?”

“What do you mean, burning the bridges? Do you really think that it was you who secured this project?

You only butt in a little. It’s because of Zoey’s ability that we got this project, okay?”

“Yeah. In simpler words, this matter has nothing to do with you!”

Levi could only give a half-suppressed laugh in this regard.

“Rest assured, Mom and Dad. I’ll make Zoey the happiest woman in the world!” Levi proclaimed.

Caitlyn glared at him. “And how do you intend to do that? You don’t even have a house! I could have

believed when you had that big villa before, but now? You’re just a pauper with zilch! Not to mention

you’re staying at my house! Aren’t you ashamed?”

“Just leave for a few days. I don’t want to see you for a while.”

“Yeah, Zoey has been busy recently, and she’s easily distracted when you’re around,” Aaron added on.

Having been kicked out of the house, Levi wasn’t angry.

This was what he owed Zoey.

Downstairs, a Rolls-Royce Phantom pulled over.

Azure Dragon got out of the car and greeted, “God of War, after you!”

Levi got into the car.

“Aaron, come, quick!” Caitlyn, who was watching through the window, suddenly shouted. “I think Levi

just got into a luxury car.”

Aaron hurried over and saw a Rolls-Royce driving past his house.

“That’s a Rolls-Royce Phantom! The car owner must be a big shot! How could’ve Levi gotten into this

kind of car?” Aaron said quickly.

“I just saw a figure from the back who looked a little like him. I guess I worried too much,” said Caitlyn

with relief. “If he can afford to drive a Rolls-Royce, would we even be staying in this hundred square

meters dumpster?”

Aaron snorted. “You’re still hoping on this gigolo?”

“Yes. I hope he starves to death.”

In the car, Azure Dragon asked, “Where to now, Sir?”

“To the Royal Villa!”

I must take back my villa!

“Sir, I’ve found out that the person living in your villa right now is Matthew Green! He’s the current

general manager of Skyline Media under Garrison International!”

“He’s currently Ashton’s trusted aide! After betraying you, he immediately devoted himself to Ashton.”

Ashton was Levi’s Uncle, Jacob’s son. He had a reputation for being a man about town. And it was he

who said that he wanted to marry Zoey at the banquet that day.

He had been coveting Zoey for a long time now.

Levi’s gaze went cold at the mention of Matthew.

He was once his trusted aide, his henchmen.

It was Levi who promoted him. If it hadn’t been for him, he would have committed fraud and gone to

prison.

Levi could still remember that after his downfall, Matthew had become the Garrison family’s lackey who

immediately contacted the media reporters to smear his name.

He had even forged a good deal of evidences of Levi’s ‘supposed’ crime and successfully sent him to

prison.

Thinking about how Matthew once looked respectful before him, Levi found it ridiculous.

Very soon, he arrived at the Royal Villa.

Standing before the villa that he personally designed, rage bubbled just below the surface of his mind.

The nerve of him to stay at my marital home!

Die!

Upon noticing the two of them, the villa housekeeper came out and asked, “What are you people doing

here and who are you looking for?”

Levi grinned. “I’m here to look at my house!”

“What? Your house? Are you sick in the head?”

“I’m telling you, the owner of this villa is Matthew Green, Mr. Green of Skyline Media!” the housekeeper

sneered.

Levi tugged his lips into a wider grin. “Then did Matthew tell you who was the previous owner of the

villa?”

“You think I care? I only know Mr. Green!”

Right at that moment, a Porsche Panamera pulled in.

The housekeeper immediately went to open the door.

Matthew, dressed in a suit, came down with a secretary supporting him at the side. The secretary, who

was dressed in business attire, was hot. Her long legs wrapped in black stockings were especially

attractive.

Seeing that they came back together, it was obvious they were up to some shenanigans.

“Who are these people?” Matthew asked, displeasure was written all over his face as he looked at the

two people standing in front of the villa.

Levi slowly turned around. In the split second when their eyes met, Matthew got the shock of his life.

It just so happened that he had gone on a business trip during the Garrison family’s celebration

banquet, so he didn’t meet Levi until today.

Meeting Levi right now, he could feel nothing but blind terror.

It differed from the rest of the Garrison family. Matthew had a psychological fear and awe for Levi.

Especially since he had done something despicable toward him; he couldn’t look Levi in the eye.

“Life seems good, eh, Mr. Green?” Levi asked with a smile on his face.

“W-W-What are you doing here?” Matthew asked, trembling.

“I’m here to have a look at my house!”

Levi sized up the villa.

“This villa has nothing to do with you now. So leave!” Matthew said, bracing himself and looking at Levi.

Levi smirked. “And if I don’t?”

Matthew’s secretary, Queena, glowered at Levi. “Who do you think you are? How dare you behave like

a barbarian? Leave now! Or I’ll inform Mr. Ashton, and you’ll be sorry for this!”

At the mention of Ashton, Matthew suddenly got a newfound courage and he retort, “Levi Garrison,

taking into consideration that you were my boss, I will not make things difficult for you. So please leave

now!”

“Who do you think you are to make things difficult for me?” Levi disparaged.

“Why don’t you take a look at yourself in the mirror, Levi? You’re a nobody now! How dare you talk to

Mr. Green like that?” Queena sneered. “Get down on your knees and crawl your way out!”
