Chapter 129
After all, these were stories from international circles. With Zoe’s level of connections, the most she could access was the elite circles within Jelonsburg in Chusia
Only someone like Sophia, the White familly’s heiress, would ever be qualified to know them and become a socialite on that stage. Things like that had nothing to do with Zoe.
Joseph would never admit to something as ridiculous as Zoe knowing people like Roland and Carlos. That was just impossible in his eyes.
Joseph just didn’t expect that Zoe would go to such great lengths just to join the Ludwig family and earn Shawn’s heart.
He couldn’t believe that she would go this far for Shawn, digging so deep into those international figures.
In Joseph’s mind, the only reason Zoe knew things even he didn’t was because she was desperate to marry into the Ludwig family.
However, as long as Joseph was alive, he would never let things like that happen.
Joseph let out a loud snort and shot Shawn a glare. “So, this is the woman you want to marry, huh? Someone who only goes against the Ludwig family!”
khawn’s eyes sparked with determination, his gaze intense and unwavering. “That’s right. I won’t marry anyone but her. No one else even comes dose
That just made Joseph even angrier, and the White family’s faces, turned downright ugly
If word got out that Zoe was going to be Shawn’s fiancée, the engagement between the White family and the Ludwig family would become a total Joke
Joseph snorted again and his face was darkening with rage. He threw out a harsh remark and stormed off.
He said. “Very well. Shawn. Listen, as long as I’m alive, that woman will never set foot in the Ludwig family. I’ll never acknowledge her as my granddaughter–in–law,”
As Joxepit storied out, the rest of the Ludwig family shot Zoe a few glares and left as well.
It seemed that even if Zoe and Shawn ended up together, she would probably never be accepted by the Ludwig family. The onlookers couldn’t help but feel a little sorry for her
However, none of this bothered Zoe in the slightest. After all, the power behind her was far greater than just the Ludwig family
At the very top of the Eminence Nexus, the forces backing her could leave the Ludwig family in the dust without even trying

The crowd was stunned by their bold move, and a sharp gasp echoed around them
shawn’s eyes darkened, a flicker of emotion passing through them
Zoe gemly planted a soft
fi kiss on s
Shawn’s nose
It wasn’t a passionate kiss, but somehow, it set every heart in the room fluttering
The onlookers never imagined that a kiss on the nose could he so gentle, so romantic, and even downright poetic.
In the comer, when Sophia saw Zoe and Shawn kissing in the center of the dance floor, she clenched the stem of her wine glass so tightly that snapped.
She thought, “Damn you, Zoe! How dare you dance with Shawn and kiss him in front of everyone! Are you trying to show off? You’ve got some
nerve

“Go to hell. Zoe. Just wait and see, I’ll make sure your reputation is ruined Sophia’s fingers dug so seep out.

The room exploded with applause as everyone started gushing in amazement.
Wow, those two were amazing. Did you see how perfectly they moved together on the dance floor?
“I did. Every spin and jump was flawless. There wasn’t a single misstep. Even as a pro dancer, I have to admit I can’t hold a candle to them.”
“A stunning guy and a gorgeous girl–how can you not be obsessed with them?”
“Well that nose–tip kiss killed me, and I think I just picked up a new trick for flirting”
As the music ended, Zoe and Shawn stepped aside
Just then, Chase, dressed in a suit, hurried over and leaned in to quietly whisper something to Shawn.
Shawn glanced at Zoe and said, “Something urgent came up, and I need to take care of it. Wait here. I’ll be back soon.” With that, he left with Chase.
Zoe nodded.
