Chapter 108
Philip thought, Zoe isn’t just some ordinary person returning to the Evans family. She has achieved remarkable things in certain fields, but chose to keep her true identity hidden as she came back.
She wanted to see how her family and former teachers would treat her now. But she was disappointed. Instead of a warm welcome, she faced a lot of letdowns. That’s why she kept her identity a secret until now, right?
Philip naturally had no idea that he’d only guessed half of it. He couldn’t even begin to imagine Zoe’s real identity, let alone know that she was here
to assasinate Shawn.
He didn’t have time to think further because soon. Zoe’s performance in the following grueling training sessions put an end to his wild guesses. The training included standing at attention for three hours, murksmanship, combat, and hacking tests, All these skills were essential for soldiers under Slun
Zoe’s performance was just enough to pass, which made Philip shake his head at his baseless speculations.
By the end of just one day’s training, two–thirds of the recruits were eliminated. Many couldn’t handle the pressure and dropped out voluntarily. Zoe was the only girl who remained. The total number of recruits left was eighteen.
In the evening, it was the soldiers‘ downtime. The recruits gathered in a circle, chatting and laughing, having a great time.
Even though Zoe wasn’t outstanding in the later training, she was the first woman to make it this far. This had never happened in previous recruitments.
The male soldiers who had looked down on Zoe before now admired her. During the break, they surrounded Zoe, treating her like the apple of their eye, and asking her different questions,
At that moment, some of the recruits g
got excited and started shouting in a certain direction
Zoe, sitting in the crowd, raised her eyebrows and looked in the same direction as everyone else,
In the distance, under the evening sun’s afterglow, a few people were walking over. The sunlight, filtering through the lazy sky, shone on the well- tailored military uniforms.
Shawn, in his military attire, walked in front of the group. He marched in military boots, passing by from not far away.
His short hair lay neatly on his forehead. Every angle the sunlight hit was just right, making him look like a handsome young man straight out of a comic book.
Not just the girls, but even the guys were a bit captivated by Shawn’s good looks.
Zoe narrowed her eyes slightly.
“Shawut Shawn!” The guys shouted as if they had seen a beautiful woman. They were in awe. Their goal in joining the military camp was to become like Shawn
At that moment, one of the recruits who had been chatting with Zoe shouted at her, “Hey, Zoe, why did you, a girl, join the military camp and Sght with everyone else!”
I was as
he was trying to get Shawn’s attention or just to pass the time while Shawn was passing by.
With the sound of military boots approaching, Shawn’s sharply defined profile was already within arm’s reach of the crowd.
Zoe could feel Shawn’s sharp, hawk–like gaze piercing through the crowd and landing precisely on her face. She casually folded her arms, shrugged her shoulders, and showed a completely lazy posture.
Then, in front of everyone, she threw a flirtatious glance at Shawn through the crowd and said loudly, “What else! Of course, Shawn. If he is willing. I can lie in his bed tonight and warm it up for him.”
it’s because I admire
Zoe discarded her previously cold nature and the pride she showed on the bauleted and in front of her subordinates. At this moment, she had only one thought: to return every bit of humiliation Shawn had given her.
All the soldiers heard Zoe’s words, including the senior officers of the Clusian war zone who were with Shawn.
Everyone knew plenty of girls admired Shawn. But actually surviving the brutal drills just to chase him here was impossible. Almost no one was that obsessed.

Chapter 108
And to openly say such things in front of so many people? There was only one person in the world who dared to do that besides Zoc
As soon as the words left her mouth, the whole scene was stunned. Then, a thunderous roar of teasing spread throughout the area.
One shouted, “Oh, come on!”
Another exclaimed, “Impressive!”
Someone said, “So shocking! Zoe, you’re not even trying to hide your desire to sleep with Shawn.”
The crowd erupted. But without exception, all the attention was directed towards Shawn.
Even the high–ranking officials standing beside Shawn couldn’t help but cough awkwardly.
Chase had known about Zoe’s application to join the recruits since the beginning. He had passed the news on to Shawn. Shawn hadn’t even glanced at it before agreeing to let Zoe join
Seeing Zoe so boldly–openly teasing Shawn, Chase covered his mouth, almost bursting into laughter.
He said, “Mr. Ludwig, it’s Ms. Evans. She’s chased you all the way here. I’d say that’s true love.”
Shawn’s eyes suddenly darkened. He thought, ‘It seems I don’t know her well enough. She is so proud and cold on the battlefield. Yet she could also be like this. She is really shameless!
