Chapter 492


    Over a hundred people showed up in a blink of an eye.


    Everyone immediately assumed Maurice was the victim after seeing the piteous state he was in.


    They began to confront Levi.


    At this very moment, Zoey walked outside.


    “What’s going on?”


    “We wanted to talk to you, Ms. Lopez, but your husband kept stopping us and he even attacked


    Maurice! Your security guard also pped Maurice in the face.”


    Shifting the me onto the innocent now, huh?


    Zoey smiled. “And?”


    “You know what could happen, Ms. Lopez,” said Shawn. “Your husband’s going to be in a world of


    trouble if word gets out. He had struck a celebrity, for God’s sake! He might even end up in jail!”


    “What should I do then?” Zoey asked.


    “To bepletely honest with you, Ms. Lopez, we’ve been tricked into signing a ve contract with


    Triple Group. We want to leave, but there’s a huge penalty to pay…”


    Shawn trailed off.


    Zoey chuckled. “So you’re saying you want me to pay for the penalty and buy you guys over?”


    The entire group nodded fervently. “That’s right, Ms. Lopez! We did some calctions. All the penalties


    add up to exactly two billion. It’s actually not a lot! Think about it; wouldn’t it be a breeze to gain back


    the two billion if you had such a great team like us and a brilliant actor like Maurice?”


    “He’s right! I believe we’ll be able to earn you two billion in just a year!”


    They were full of confidence thanks to the two films that had been released.


    Maurice walked over to Zoey while covering his face. “Thepany is now in chaos after we left, isn’t


    it, Ms. Lopez?” he said with a smile. “Without us, it’d be tough for you to form a new team so quickly.


    I’m presenting you with an opportunity right now; we’lle back if you agree to pay for our penalties.


    With us back, we’ll bring yourpany profits beyond your imagination! Not only that, but I’ll also even


    let go of the fact that your husband attacked me.”


    Maurice was full of conceit.


    They had originallye over to beg Zoey for help, but now he made it seem like Zoey was the one


    having to do the pleading.


    Trisha and Wilford chimed in, “It’s a win-win situation. We’re giving you a chance. The only question


    now is, are you going to take it?”


    Gerry Wade and the others wanted to throw up upon hearing that.


    You’re the ones who’d racked your brains trying to find a way toe back, but now you’re talking


    about giving Ms. Lopez a chance?


    Could you all be any more shameless?

    Everyone’s eyes were on Zoey, waiting for her answer.


    To Maurice and the group, Zoey would definitely agree to their proposal.


    It wasn’t just because Oriental Star Group couldn’t do without them.


    She also had to say yes for Levi’s sake.


    “I refuse! You’re no longer part of my firm, so your problems have nothing to do with me. Besides, we


    have a rule of not working with traitors. Have a good day!”


    With that, Zoey turned and walked away.


    Job well done!


    Levi nodded in approval.


    Zoey had changed rather drastically throughout this period.


    She was now much firmer in terms of her work and personality.


    “What? Did she just turned us down?”


    Maurice and the rest of them were bbergasted.


    Shawn was filled with disbelief.


    “Do you not care if your husband’s fate, Zoey Lopez!?” Maurice yelled. “Just you wait and see how I’m


    going to make your husband suffer!”


    Shawn and Steve quickly stopped him. “Don’t do anything rash, Maurice! Remember what we’re here


    for!”


    “Yeah! We should behave ourselves. We’re here to ask for Ms. Lopez’s help, not to threaten her!” said


    the others.
