Chapter 165


    Levi heard themotion while he was brushing his teeth, but he responded carefreely, “Don’t worry.


    There’s nothing to be afraid of.”


    “What? The Lopez family’s businesses are copsing. Even your wife’spany is affected!” Harry


    yelled angrily.


    “You started this mess. So, what do you think we should do now?” Henry asked coldly.


    “It’ll be alright. This matter will resolve by itself,” Levi replied nonchntly.


    “Fine! That’s alright. We have a way of resolving our problem!” Harry left furiously with his family.


    Aaron looked at his son-inw helplessly. He thought Levi was impressive when he dealt with the


    foreigners two days ago, but Levi disappointed him again. Rescuing Zoey was the right thing to do, but


    he did not need to go to such lengths to teach them a lesson. Now, he caused trouble for everyone


    because of his reckless actions.


    Zoey defended Levi when Caitlyn began to criticize Levi. “Don’t me him for what happened. This is


    all because of my careless mistake. There’s no use arguing at this point!”


    Aaron’s n to do a property survey for a new house was ruined. There’s no money to buy a house


    now, not to mention the possibility of having topensate others.


    Zoey was is a state of agitation. “I’ll figure out a way.”


    Levi, on the other hand, was unfazed.


    The financial department manager contacted Zoey shortly after. He told her Harry Lopez had withdrawn


    100 million from thepany’s ount.


    That sum was thepensation fee paid by the Rogers family because of the psychological trauma


    they had inflicted on Zoey and her family.


    “Father is behaving outrageously! The Rogers family gave Zoey the money. Who gave him the right to


    take the money from her?” Aaron was mad.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Zoey and Caitlyn were filled with grievances.


    Aaron took the initiative to question his father.


    “Levi dragged us into this mess, so he should bear the responsibility. It’s not wrong for me to take this


    money from your family since he is your son-inw,” Harry retorted.


    Aaron clenched his fists. “That’s unreasonable, father. Moreover, you’remitting embezzlement by


    taking the money away in private. You’re going against thew!”


    Harry snorted coldly. “Fine by me. Why don’t you call the cops on me?”


    “I…” Aaron fell silent. I can’t do that. Moreover, father is one of the directors in Imperial Meadows’s


    board of management. The chances of winning an embezzlementwsuit against him are slim.


    Harry added with a sneer, “Have you forgotten about your crime of stealing the documents previously?


    Your life will be ruined if I turn you in by showing the evidence to the police.”


    “I… Anyway, what you’re doing is wrong, father!” Aaron hung up the call furiously.


    The Lopez family resolved their family crisis effortlessly after receiving the 100 million sum. They even


    profited from their selfish action. But Zoey’spany paid the price in return.


    Caitlynmented, “What can we do? They’ve always been this way. We are used to being mistreated


    by them. They’ll seize the money sooner orter anyway.”


    Aaron and Caitlyn had been victims of familial betrayals on multiple asions. The Lopez family would


    butter them up to gain benefits whenever they were doing good. They persuaded Aaron and his family


    to share their fortune by using the moral obligations of being part of the Lopez family. But whenever


    Aaron and his family faced troubles, none of their so-called ‘family’ would show up to lend them a


    helping hand. The other members of the Lopez family would only think of ways to worsen their


    predicaments and maximize their own profits. Aaron and Caitlyn’s sentiment of treating the Lopez


    family with sincerity was clearly not reciprocated.


    Levi was done freshening up at that time. He poured a cup of warm milk while he questioned Zoey,


    “Did all of the investors pull out from the project?”
