The Protector Novel

Chapter 11

In actual fact, Zoey had been awake for a long time now, but she didn’t make a sound.

She looked at Levi wonderingly.

He was right.

The Lopez family really wants me back.

But why?

Zoey’s heart leaped into her throat when she heard Levi requesting Harry to come pick her up in person.

Harry had always been high and mighty. Never in a million years would he accept Levi’s proposal. Levi was just provoking him by having him personally invite her back.

“Fine. Forget it if Harry refuses to come! Bye!”

Levi hung up.

“Are you crazy?” Zoey nudged him. “How could you ask Grandpa to come and get me? I say we go back on our own and forget about everything. There seems to be something very serious going on based on their tone.”

“Don’t. Just wait. Three, two, one…”

Sure enough, Zoey’s phone rang as soon as Levi finished counting down.

“Dad has agreed to go pick you guys up,” Henry’s helpless voice sounded. “Now give me your address!”

“University City’s Borrman Hotel!”

“And your room number?”

“You don’t need to know that. We’ll go down on our own when Harry arrives,” Levi said.

This was to prevent Harry from not coming.

“Huh? Is Grandpa really coming?”

Having been living in Harry’s shadows since she was a child, Zoey was frightened down to the soles of her shoes.

“What are you nervous for? He’s here to invite you back,” Levi said with a smile on his face.
