Levi Garrison: The Return of the God of War [The Protector] Chapter 997

“Aha! That’s why that bastard has the guts to challenge us. He’s Morris Group’s boss!” Damien exclaimed after doing some digging into Levi’s background. He finally understood why Levi had the guts to be so obnoxious. Although few people knew Levi was the head of Morris Group, it did not take the Garrison clan long to obtain that piece of information. Hearing the name, Edward widened his eyes in surprise. “Morris Group? Even Triple Group in Keerea is no match for that company! It practically dominates everything.” “Well, it’s true that Morris Group has got some substance. But that doesn’t mean Levi can take the Garrison family lightly. Father’s Pinnacle Group in South Hampton is far superior! I’ll tell the company to acquire Morris Group. I bet Levi Garrison will come begging on his knees in no time. This will be the price he has to pay for messing with the Garrison family!” Damien let out a confident laugh as he imagined Levi begging for mercy. The next day, Levi and his mother began their journey home along with the Beasts and the Amethyst Guards. Levi was deep in thought, thinking about the encounter he had yesterday. A frown settled on his brows. Before long, he finally broke the silence. “Mother, do you miss him?” Emma was startled by his sudden question. She turned towards her son reluctantly, trying to think of how she should answer in an appropriate manner. “Do you still want to marry Tyrone? The family will finally accept you after all these years,” Levi continued. “No. I don’t harbor unrealistic expectations like that anymore. That’s no longer what I care about,” she replied firmly as she looked at Levi in the eyes. “What do you care about then?” he asked. A warm and gentle smile slowly spread across her face. “Well, it’s not anything important that you need to know.” “Come on, Mom. I will try my best to make your dream come true!” he insisted. “I hope you can stand in front of the Garrisons one day and proudly tell them that you’re my son—and that you’re a man worthy of their respect!” But she quickly regretted what she said when she saw her son’s solemn expression. “You don’t have to get all stressed out about it, Levi. This is just a thought I have, don’t take it too seriously.” The last thing she wanted was to pressurize her son and make things difficult for him. She knew how difficult and dangerous such an action could be for Levi. But that was not what her son thought. “No, Mom. You will live to see that day. I promise,” Levi pronounced. Yet, Emma knew he was just trying to make her feel better. She knew better than to set her expectations too high. Besides, Levi was not even thirty yet. He still had a long way to go before he could actually do something substantial. It was impossible that someone of his age would earn the respect of the Garrison family. When they arrived, Zoey was already waiting for them. She had put aside work to pick Emma up. “How’s the prep coming along?” Levi asked when he saw the woman. “We’re almost done. We’ll go over and bid for the project tomorrow,” she replied. He nodded approvingly and let out a small smile. “Remember to be careful of Lyndsay Granger. She’s not an easy character.” “Don’t worry; I already have it all planned out. Iris and I will travel separately tomorrow,” Zoey assured. “That’s great. All the best for tomorrow then.” Levi knew Zoey must have made adequate preparation, but he was still worried that something unexpected would pop up. Over at Golden Plaza, Jayden hung up the phone after a long call. “Do you know who just called me? Damien Garrison! The actual Mr. Damien!” he exclaimed at the top of his voice. Around him, everyone looked at him enviously. Damien was well known to be the potential next heir of the Garrison clan. It must be an urgent matter for a man of his standing to actually call Jayden. “What did Mr. Damien say?” Lyndsay asked as she scooted closer to Jayden. “Mr. Damien wanted one thing done—we are to crush Morris Group as soon as possible,” the latter replied.
