Chapter 707


    “Mr. Cronan said that you’ll be fully in charge of the investment of the three hundred billion, Mr.


    Garrison,” said Sean Zucker.


    “Why?” asked Levi curiously.


    “Because once the policy was passed, tens of businesses havee to pay Mr. Cronan a visit. They’re


    all sessful entrepreneurs from South City and have done a lot for the development of the city. It’d be


    too difficult for Mr. Cronan to reject their requests. So in order to avoid any controversy and to be


    completely impartial, he’s decided to hand over the matter to you,” exined Sean.


    Levi gave it some thought before answering. “Very well. I’ve got some free time on my hands recently


    anyway, so I’ll take care of it.”


    “Thank you, Mr. Garrison. Please let us know if you need anything.”


    Soon enough, all news outlets were reporting that the person in charge of the three hundred billion


    investment project had changed hands and was now being handled by Mr. Garrison.


    This news immediately drew the interest of plenty of entrepreneurs across South City.


    This of course also included the ck family. They weren’t going to let such a great opportunity slip


    through their fingers.


    The cks gathered everyone for a meeting, including Zoey.


    “This is the perfect chance for us cks! Our family has been stagnant for the past few years, so it’ll be


    great if we can just get our hands on a few of these projects.”


    Meredith’s eyes scanned across the crowd. “So, everyone needs to work hard to get us as many


    projects as possible! Oh, and I’m counting on you especially, Zoey!”


    “I’m sorry, Grandma. But ourpany won’t be in the run for any projects this time.”


    With the number of resources and funds the Morris Group had, they didn’t need to get involved in the


    competition at all.


    “But you need to think for the ck family. What Grandma is saying is for you to acquire some projects


    on behalf of us,” insisted Meredith.


    “I’m afraid that’ll be a little difficult, Grandma. I can’t bid for those projects using mypany but if I


    use my own, it will be very tough.”


    Zoey didn’t want to use thepany’s resources for personal matters.


    Meredith’s face darkened. “Frankly, I don’t care.”


    “We should give Zoey a mission that she can’t refuse. After all, remember she insists on marrying Levi


    Garrison?” chimed Jennie.


    Meredith’s eyes widened at Jennie’s reminder. “That’s right! Zoey, here’s your mission! You have to get


    us a project worth at least fifty billion!”


    “Why are you forcing this on me, Grandma?” asked Zoey couldn’t seem to understand.


    “Because… you want to get married to Levi, don’t you? None of us cks support this marriage of


    yours. But as long as you get us a project worth fifty billion, then neither we nor your parents will stop


    you. Otherwise, as long as we’re around, you can forget about marrying Levi!” asserted Meredith firmly.


    What?


    Zoey froze to the spot.


    She thought that the ck family would be better than the Lopez family. But as it turned out, they were


    all the same.


    They all treated her as if she were nothing but their pawn; a tool to be used.


    With such massive profits tempting them, they didn’t even care if their demands were unreasonable.

    “Don’t worry. With your resources, this shouldn’t be a problem for you at all. Moreover, I’ll be helping


    you too. I’ll get in contact with the person-in-charge as soon as possible,” smiled Logan.


    Zoey looked at the people around her. “Grandma, I won’t agree to this! Why do I have to do this?”


    “Fine, you can turn me down. But you can kiss your ns to marry Levi goodbye as long as I’m alive. I


    swear I’ll do whatever it takes to stop you!” seethed Meredith.


    Everyone else in the ck family had the same attitude too.
