Chapter 1458
With his appointment for such an important task, Shaun’s authority was vast.
He had the power to determine who was worthy enough to attend the unification ceremony.
Of course, the attendance of guests above Shaun’s social ss was not up to him to decide.
In Shaun’s eyes, Levi and his family were beneath him.
“Will this displease Cora?” somebody asked tentatively.
“The most prominent figures of the Four Great Families would be in attendance,” Shaun said with a
smug smile. “The olddy has no standing. There is nothing she could say to reverse my decision to
bar Zoey and her family from attending such an important ceremony.”
“You’re right. We’ll do it your way then!”
The day of the unification ceremony arrived.
The important figures in all of Erudia had received their invitations and epted them with fervent
expectation.
It was too good of an opportunity to miss.
The spots were limited, therefore rendering each and every invitation sent out to be priceless in value.
Shaun’s approval had be a highly demandedmodity overnight.
He had received offers ranging from tens of millions to vis by the bulk, all for the consideration of an
invitation to the unification ceremony.
However, Shaun and his men had abused their power by distributing the invitations discriminately to
their friends and acquaintances.
As a result, they were held in high regard by those who were moring to curry their favor.
The people in their social circles were only of the middle ss. Armed with invitations to the unification
ceremony, they had suddenly be elites within the society.
Even the woman that Shaun desired had offered to spend a night with him in exchange for an
invitation.
The power had consumed Shaun, though it did not matter to him, as he was a member of the unified
Great Family.
With the unification, their prestige had never been higher.
Harry and Meredith could barely stop themselves from smiling all the time.

As far as they were concerned, they have achieved the pinnacle of life: to bring glory to themselves
and their families.
With the unification, they have gotten everything they have ever wanted.
Little did they know that the person who had made all of that happen was Levi.
“Have you heard? Levi was about to get himself killed by the Great Family of Frostford for offending
them. Instead, they spared his life out of respect for Cora and Zoey.”
“How pathetic. Even Thierry Langston had begged on his behalf!”
“In exchange for Levi keeping his life, Thierry had voted for Albus to head the newly unified Great
Family, essentially giving up his leadership. Many of the elders were backing Thierry as the leader.”
At that moment, the rumor that Thierry had voluntarily given up his leadership to save Levi’s life had
spread within Westford.
Otherwise, they would have been the strongest house out of the four.
This transgression of Thierry’s had caused Westford to be the weakest family.
It is all Levi’s fault.
“I was considering letting Zoey and her family attend the ceremony to meet people for opportunities to
rise in society again. Looks like it isn’t a necessity anymore!”
Cora was furious when the news had reached her ears.
“The Great Family of Westford has done more than our fair share for Zoey and her family!”
“Thierry must have begged Albus for mercy out of respect for me,” Cora sighed.
If it had not been for this demonstration of weakness, Thierry could very well be the leader of the newly
unified Great Family.
“Grandma, we understand. Though you love Zoey, you must give her the punishment she deserves to
show her the sacrifices you’ve made for her.”
The others were willing to look at things pessimistically.
Soon, the unttering news had reached Zoey’s ears.
“Grandma has forbidden us from attending the ceremony,” Zoey said, feeling morose.
“It’s just a lousy ceremony, what would we do there anyway?” said Levi dismissively.
